3- 6 WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
SD060A1-E
IN THE EVENT OF A PUNCTURE
If a puncture occurs whilst driving the
vehicle:
1. Bring the car to rest as soon as it is
safe to do so and with the minimum
amount of braking required which
will assist in maintaining the maxi-
mum amount of control. The vehicle
should be parked wherever pos-
sible upon firm level ground to facili-
tate wheel changing.
2. If the vehicle is creating a hazard and the road conditions do not per-
mit the wheel to be changed safely,
assistance should be sought.
3. Passengers must not be allowed to
remain inside the vehicle during
wheel changing. If a puncture oc-
curs whilst the vehicle is on a
motorway, the passengers should
take refuge on the motorway em-
bankment to avoid the possibility of
injury occurring should the vehicle
be struck by other motorway traffic.
4. Wheel changing should be per-
formed according to the following
instructions.
SD050A2-E
SPARE WHEEL (Not all models)
The spare wheel is stored under the
luggage compartment floor and is ac-
cessed from within the luggage com-
partment by lifting the carpet and the
floor panel.
To remove the spare wheel, unscrew
the retainer, rotating this in an anti
clockwise direction and lift out the
wheel. To replace the wheel, screw
the retainer by hand until tight having
located the wheel in the luggage com-
partment floor well. The inflation pres-
sure of the spare wheel should be
checked at least monthly and when-
ever the wheel is fitted to the vehicle.

AFTER CHANGING WHEELS
The pressure of the spare tyre should
be checked at the first available oppor-
tunity. If any doubt exists as to the tyre
pressure, the vehicle should be driven
slowly to the nearest service station
and the tyre pressure checked and
adjusted as required.
If the valve cap is lost from any of the
valves, a replacement should be ob-
tained and fitted at the first available
opportunity. The valve cap prevents
the ingress of dirt which may cause the
valve to stick and therefore leak and is
part of the valve sealing function. Ensure that the spare wheel, jack and
wheel nut wrench as well tools are
correctly located in the boot of the
vehicle to prevent damage and noise.
The vehicle may be towed by the con-
ventional method using the towing eye
at the front of the vehicle as an attach-
ment point. In addition, a suspended
tow with or without a towing dolly may
be used with either the front or the rear
wheels being suspended, provided the
above caution is observed.

DAILY OPERATING CHECKS
The following items should be checked
on a daily basis or whenever the vehicle
is refuelled, whichever occurs sooner.
o Engine oil level.
o Engine coolant level.
o Power steering fluid level.
o Brake fluid level.
o Windscreen washer fluid level.
o Battery condition.
o Tyre condition and pressures.
o Operation and cleanliness of all light-
ing equipment.
o Windscreen wiper and washer opera- tion.
o Horn operation.
o Warning light operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mir- rors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and operation.
o Fluid leakage.
The vehicle must not be driven if the
daily operating checks indicate that
any item of equipment related to the
safety or roadworthiness of the vehicle
is not functioning correctly. G030B02A-EAT
Recommended Oil
1. Petrol engine
A multi grade oil having a specification
which meets A.P.I. specification of SG
or above is recommended. The oil vis-
cosity should be selected according to
the operating environment of the engine
by means of the table shown in the
illustration. The engine oil recommen-
dations are complete in themselves
and the use of additives is neither
required nor recommended. The use of
engine oil additives may result in invali-
dation of the vehicle warranty.
G030A01FC-EAT
ENGINE OIL
The correct engine oil level is of para-
mount importance. An excessively high
or low oil level may result in irreparable
damage being sustained by the engine.
The engine oil level must be checked
on a daily basis, whenever the vehicle
is refuelled or before starting a long trip,
whichever occurs sooner.
In addition, it is imperative that only an
approved grade and specification of oil
is used to avoid the possibility of seri-
ous engine damage and premature wear.
The use of "budget price" oil is a false
economy that must be avoided if the
maximum reliability and useful life is to
be obtained from the vehicle.

TYRE PRESSURES
In modern high-speed motoring, correct
tyre pressures are vitally important.
I010B01B
HTB263
Diesel EngineIncorrect tyre pressures can affect ve-
hicle safety by causing reduced adhe-
sion, steering response and tyre failure
through overheating. The tyre pressure
must only be checked when the tyres
are cold. The correct tyre pressures are
indicated on the label affixed in the
glove box and below.
Tyre pressures should be increased by
3 psi when the vehicle is driven fully
laden or under conditions of sustained
high speed motoring.

I050A01TB-EAT
TYRE CHAINS
Tyre chains, if necessary, should be
installed on the front wheels. Be sure
that the chains are the proper size and
that they are installed in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions.
To minimize tyre and chain wear, do not
continue to use tyre chains when they
are no longer needed.
SI030A2-E
SNOW TYRES
If it is desired to fit snow tyres to the
vehicle, it must be ascertained that the
original size and load carrying capacity
are met by the replacement tyres. When
using snow tyres, the vehicle should
not be driven at speeds in excess of 60
MPH.
I060A01FC-EAT
TYRE ROTATION
The tyre wear characteristics will vary
between each tyre dependant upon the
conditions of use. It is normal for the
front tyres to wear more rapidly than
those fitted to the rear of the vehicle and
therefore tyre rotation will provide a
means of helping to ensure an even
wear rate across the tyre set. For ve-
hicles fitted with radial ply tyres, rota-
tion should be confined to front to rear
tyre alternation. It is not recommended
that radial ply tyres be rotated from side
to side.
WARNING:
o When driving on roads covered with snow or ice, drive at less
than 30 km/h (20 mph).
o Use the SAE "S" class or wire & plastic chains.
o Don't use the tyre chains in 185/ 55R 15 tyre to prevent body dam-
age.
o If you have noise caused by chaws contacting the body, retighten the
chain to avoid contact with the
vehicle body.
o Retighten the chains to prevent from a body damage after driving
0.5 ~ 1 km with equipping chains.
