RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS AND CAPACITIES
* 1
: Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
* 2
: Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute to fuel econ -
omy by reducing the amount of fuel necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to measure
in everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they can offer significant cost and energy savings.
To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use only lubricants of the proper quality. The correct
lubricants also help promote engine efficiency that results in improved fuel economy.
These lubricants and fluids are recommended for use in your vehicle.

Specifications & Consumer information
Recommended SAE viscosity
number Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an
effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil
flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils
can provide better fuel economy and cold
weather performance, however, higher
viscosity engine oils are required for sat-
isfactory lubrication in hot weather. Using
oils of any viscosity other than those rec-ommended could result in engine dam-
age.When choosing an oil, consider the
range of temperature your vehicle will be
operated in before the next oil change.Proceed to select the recommended oil
viscosity from the chart.
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area
around any filler plug, drain plug, ordipstick before checking or drain-ing any lubricant. This is especially
important in dusty or sandy areasand when the vehicle is used on unpaved roads. Cleaning the plugand dipstick areas will prevent dirt
and grit from entering the engine and other mechanisms that couldbe damaged.

: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity
grade SAE 5W-20,5W-30 (API SL, SM / ILSAC GF-3 or ACEA A3 or above).
However, if the engine oil is not available in your country, select the proper engine
oil using the engine oil viscosity chart.

VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN)
The vehicle identification number (VIN) is
the number used in registering your car
and in all legal matters pertaining to its
ownership, etc.
The number is punched on the floor
under the driver seat. To check the num-
ber, pull out the slit part of carpet.
VIN label
The VIN is also on a plate attached to the
top of the dashboard. The number on theplate can easily be seen through the
windscreen from outside. The vehicle certification label attached
on the driver’s (or front passenger’s) side
centre pillar gives the vehicle identifica-
tion number (VIN).VEHICLE CERTIFICATION
