GENERAL INFORMATION 0A-7
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
The WARNING and CAUTION below describe some general precautions that you should observe when servicing
a vehicle. These general precautions apply to many of the service procedures described in this manual, and they
will not necessarily be repeated with each procedure to which they apply.
WARNING:

Whenever raising a vehicle for service, be sure to follow the instructions under ªVEHICLE LIFTING
POINTSº on SECTION 0A.

When it is necessary to do service work with the engine running, make sure that the parking brake
is set fully and the transmission is in Neutral (for manual transmission vehicles) or Park (for automatic
transmission vehicles). Keep hands, hair, clothing, tools, etc. away from the fan and belts when the
engine is running.

When it is necessary to run the engine indoors, make sure that the exhaust gas is forced outdoors.

Do not perform service work in areas where combustible materials can come in contact with a hot
exhaust system. When working with toxic or flammable materials (such as gasoline and refrigerant),
make sure that the area you work in is well-ventilated.

To avoid getting burned, keep away from hot metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust manifold, tail-
pipe, muffler, etc.

New and used engine oil can be hazardous. Children and pets may be harmed by swallowing new or
used oil. Keep new and used oil and used engine oil filters away from children and pets.
Continuous contact with used engine oil has been found to cause [skin] cancer in laboratory animals.
Brief contact with used oil may irritate skin. To minimize your exposure to used engine oil, wear a
long-sleeve shirt and moisture-proof gloves (such as dishwashing gloves) when changing engine oil.
If engine oil contacts your skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water. Launder any clothing or rags
if wet with oil, recycle or properly dispose of used oil and filters.

Make sure the bonnet is fully closed and latched before driving. If it is not, it can fly up unexpectedly
during driving, obstructing your view and resulting in an accident.
CAUTION:

Before starting any service work, cover fenders, seats and
any other parts that are likely to get scratched or stained dur-
ing servicing. Also, be aware that what you wear (e.g, but-
tons) may cause damage to the vehicle's finish.

When performing service to electrical parts that does not re-
quire use of battery power, disconnect the negative cable of
the battery.

Engine Oil and Filter Change
WARNING:
New and used engine oil can be hazardous.
Be sure to read ªWARNINGº in General Precaution in Sec-
tion 0A and observe what in written there.
Before draining engine oil, check engine for oil leakage. If any evi-
dence of leakage is found, make sure to correct defective part be-
fore proceeding to the following work.
1) Drain engine oil by removing drain plug.
2) After draining oil, wipe drain plug clean. Reinstall drain plug, and
tighten it securely as specified below.

09915-47330 (G16 and J20 engines)
NOTE:
Before fitting new oil filter, be sure to oil its O-ring. Use engine
oil for this purpose.
4) Screw new filter on oil filter stand by hand until the filter O-ring
contacts the mounting surface.
CAUTION:
To tighten oil filter properly, it is important to accurately
identify the position at which at filter O-ring first contacts
the mounting surface.
5) Tighten the filter 3 / 4 turn from the point of contact with the
mounting surface using an oil filter wrench.

6) Replenish oil until oil level is brought to FULL level mark on dip-
stick. (oil pan and oil filter capacity). The filler inlet is at the top
of the cylinder head cover.
It is recommended to use engine oil of SG, SH or SJ grade.
NOTE:
For temperature between ±20
C (±4
F) and 30
C (86
F), it
is highly recommended to use SAE 10W ± 30 oil.

NOTE:
Engine oil capacity is specified. However, note that the
amount of oil required when actually changing oil may
somewhat differ from the data in the table depending on
various conditions (temperature, viscosity, etc.).
7) Check oil filter and drain plug for oil leakage.
8) Start engine and run it for three minutes. Stop it and wait five min-
utes before checking oil level. Add oil, as necessary, to bring oil
level to FULL level mark on dipstick.
NOTE:
Step 1) ± 7) outlined above must be performed with ENGINE
NOT RUNNING. For step 8), be sure to have adequate ven-
tilation while engine is running.

Engine Coolant Change
WARNING:
To help avoid danger of being burned, do not remove radia-
tor cap while engine and radiator are still hot. Scalding fluid
and steam can be blown out under pressure if cap is taken
off too soon.
1) Remove radiator cap when engine is cool.
2) Loosen radiator drain plug to drain coolant.
3) Remove reservoir, which is on the side of radiator, and drain.
4) Tighten plug securely. Also reinstall reservoir.
5) Fill radiator with specified amount of coolant, and run engine for
2 or 3 minutes at idle. This drives out any air which may still be
trapped within cooling system. STOP ENGINE. Add coolant as
necessary until coolant level reaches the filler throat of radiator.
Reinstall radiator cap.

ªA / C CONDENSER ASSEMBLY REMOVALº in this section.).
2) Remove the condenser dryer cap from condenser.
3) Remove the filter (1) from the condenser (2).
4) Remove the dryer (1) using a plier (2).
INSTALLATION
Reverse removal sequence to install condenser dryer, according to
instruction manual with supply parts.
NOTE:

When replacing condenser dryer, add 40 cc of refrigerating
oil the same as compressor oil.

Do not remove the dryer from the plastic bag until just before
inserting it into the receiver.

Install the condenser dryer (1) with its double-layer portion
facing the bottom of the receiver.

If condenser dryer cap installing is bolt type, tighten speci-
fied torque for its bolt.
