PERIODIC CHECKS
Before long journeys, check and, if
necessary, restore:

operation of lighting system
(headlamps, direction indicators, hazard
warning lights, etc.);
tyre inflation pressure and condition;
tyre alignment;
operation of screen washer/wiper
system and positioning/wear of
windscreen/rear window wiper blades.
To ensure that the vehicle is always
efficient and well maintained, it is
advisable to make sure that you carry
out the above operations regularly
(approximately every 1000 km and
every 3000 km for checking and
topping up engine oil is advisable).
DEMANDING

distances at low speeds or long periods
of inactivity;
the following checks must be carried
out more often than indicated in the
Scheduled Servicing Plan:
check front disc brake pad
conditions and wear;
check cleanliness of bonnet and
boot locks, cleanliness and lubrication
of linkage;

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

CATALYTIC
CONVERTER
372)
The exhaust gas scavenging devices
used with catalytic converter are
extremely efficient for the reduction of
noxious gases. The catalytic converter
is installed in the exhaust system.
It is important to keep the engine
properly tuned to ensure proper catalyst
operation and prevent possible catalyst
damage.
NOTE Use fuel of the type
recommended in “Fuel selection”.
WARNING
372)As with any vehicle, do not park or
operate this vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry grass or
leaves can come in contact with a hot
exhaust since a fire could occur.
ENGINE OIL
To check and refill engine oil
373)
A — Minimum level
B — Maximum level
C — Oil replacement indication mark
The engine oil used has a significant
effect on the engine’s performance,
service life and startability. Be sure to
use oil of the recommended quality and
appropriate viscosity. All engines
consume a certain amount of oil during
normal operation. Therefore, it is
important to check the oil level at
regular intervals or before starting a
long trip.
1. Park the car on a horizontal surface.
2. Switch off the engine.
3.Wait a few minutes.
4. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with
a clean cloth.5. Reinsert the dipstick as far as it
goes.
6. Remove the dipstick and read the oil
level, which should always be within the
range indicated.
7. If the oil level is below the specified
limit, remove the cap located on the
cylinder head cover and add enough oil
to raise the level to within the specified
range. Do not overfill to avoid engine
damage. Be sure to use the specified
engine oil and do not mix various types
of oil.
8. After adding oil, close the cap
securely.
9. Confirm the oil level by repeating
step 4 to 6.
NOTE Check or refill the oil according
to the following manner.
When the oil level is checked in step
6 above, check it on a low side of the
dipstick because it is different in
appearance of oil level in the two sides
of the dipstick.
On vehicles without diesel particulate
filter (DPF), the oil level should be within
the range (A) to (B) on the dipstick.
On vehicles with DPF, the oil level
should be within the range (A) to (C) (oil
replacement indication mark) on the
dipstick. If the oil level is beyond the oil
replacement indication mark (C),
replace the oil as soon as possible.
Then, the oil should be refilled to the
459AHA102654
256
SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
maximum level (B).

On vehicle with DPF, the engine oil
will be increased due to a few of the
fuel gets mixed in the engine oil when
the DPF regenerates to burn away the
PM (particulate matter). However, it
does not indicate a malfunction.
The engine oil level will be increased
due to an amount of the fuel being
mixed in the engine oil when the DPF
regenerates to burn away the PM
(particulate matter). It does not indicate
a malfunction. In the following
conditions, the engine oil level may
increase easily. We recommend you to
have it checked frequently.:
frequent driving at uphill and
downhill;
frequent driving at high altitudes;
frequent and extended idling;
frequent driving through a traffic jam.
NOTE The engine oil will deteriorate
rapidly if the vehicle is subjected to
severe conditions, requiring earlier oil
replacement. Please refer to the
maintenance schedule.
Selection of engine oil
Refer to “Refill Capacities” under
Technical Specifications.Safety and disposal information for
used engine oil
374) 375) 376)
Protect the environment
It is illegal to pollute drains, water
courses and soil. Use authorized waste
collection facilities, including civic
amenity sites and garages providing
facilities for disposal of used oil and
used oil filters. If in doubt, contact your
local authority for advice on disposal.
WARNING
373)If the engine oil is being topped up,
wait for the engine to cool down before
loosening the filler cap, particularly for
vehicles with aluminium cap (where
provided). WARNING: risk of burns!
374)Prolonged and repeated contact may
cause serious skin diorders, including
dermatitis and cancer.
375)Avoid contact with the skin as far as
possible and wash thoroughly after any
contact.
376)Keep use engine olis out of reach of
children.
ENGINE COOLANT
To check the coolant level
A transparent coolant reserve tank (A) is
located in the engine compartment. The
coolant level in this tank should be kept
between the “L” (LOW) and “F” (FULL)
marks when measured while the engine
is cold.
