Weekly checks
•Engine oil level (non- electronic dipstick
vehicles). See ENGINE OIL CHECK - V6
Petrol engines (page 197).
• Engine coolant check. See ENGINE
COOLANT CHECK (page 204).
• Brake fluid level. See BRAKE FLUID
CHECK (page 206).
• Power steering fluid level. See POWER
STEERING FLUID CHECK (page 208).
• Screen washer fluid level. See WASHER
FLUID CHECK (page 209).
• Tyre pressures and condition. See TYRE
CARE (page 217).
• Operate air conditioning. See AUTOMATIC
CLIMATE CONTROL (page 116).
Note: The engine oil level on V6 petrol engines,
should be checked more frequently if the
vehicle is driven for prolonged periods at high
speeds. The engine oil level on diesel and V8
petrol engines is checked automatically at all
times by the electronic dipstick.
Severe driving conditions
When a vehicle is operated in severe
conditions, more frequent attention must be
paid to servicing requirements.
Severe driving conditions include:
• Driving in dusty and/or sandy conditions.
• Driving on rough and/or muddy roads
and/or wading. •
Driving in extremely hot or cold
conditions.
• Driving in areas using road salt or other
corrosive materials.
• Towing a trailer or driving in mountainous
conditions.
Contact your Dealer/Authorised Repairer for
advice.
Emission control
Your vehicle is fitted with various items of
emission and evaporati ve control equipment,
designed to meet specific territorial
requirements. You should be aware that
unauthorised replacemen t, modification or
tampering with this equipment by an owner or
repair shop, may be unlawful and subject to
legal penalties.
In addition, engine se ttings must not be
tampered with. These have been established to
ensure that your vehicle complies with
stringent exhaust em ission regulations.
Incorrect engine settings may adversely affect
exhaust emissi ons, engine performance and
fuel consumption. The y may also cause high
temperatures, which will result in damage to
the catalytic converter and the vehicle.
Road testing dynamometers (rolling
roads)
Because your vehicle is equipped with anti-lock
brakes, it is essential that any dynamometer
testing is carried out only by a qualified person,
familiar with the dynamometer testing and
safety procedures practised by
Dealers/Authorised Repairers.
CAUTION
Ensure that you take notice of any
message centre information and
warnings relating to engi ne oil level (V8 petrol
and diesel engines only). Top-up the level
when advised to do so. See ENGINE OIL
CHECK - V8 Petrol engines (page 199).

POWER STEERING FLUID CHECK
Checking the fluid level
Check and top-up the fluid with the vehicle on
level ground, with the e ngine switched off and
the system cold. Ensure that the steering wheel
is not turned after stopping the engine.
The level of fluid can be seen through the
translucent body of the reservoir. The fluid level shoul
d be between the MIN and
the MAX marks.
Topping up the fluid
1.Clean the filler cap before removing to
prevent dirt from entering the reservoir.
2. Remove filler cap.
3. Using Mobil ATF320, top-up the reservoir
until the fluid level is between the MIN and
MAX marks.
4. Replace filler cap.
WARNINGS
Power steering fluid is highly toxic.
Keep containers sealed and out of
reach of children. If accidental
consumption of fluid is suspected, seek
medical attenti on immediately.
If the fluid comes into contact with
the skin or eyes, rinse immediately
with plenty of water.
Power steering fluid is highly
inflammable. Do not allow power
steering fluid to come into contact
with naked flames or other sources of ignition
(e.g. a hot engine) - a fire may result.
CAUTIONS
The engine must not be started if the
fluid level has dropped below the MIN
mark. Severe damage to the steering pump
could result.
Seek qualified assistance immediately if
there is a noticeable drop in the fluid
level. Severe damage to the steering pump
could result.
If fluid loss is slow, the reservoir may be
topped-up to the upper level mark to
enable the vehicle to be driven to a repair
facility for examination. However, it is
recommended that you seek qualified
assistance before driving the vehicle.CAUTIONS
It is imperative that the power steering
system does not beco me contaminated
in any way. Always use new fluid and clean the
area around the filler neck both before
removing the filler ca p and after topping up.
Never return drained fluid to the system.
Power steering fluid will damage
painted surfaces. So ak up any spillage
with an absorbent cloth immediately and wash
the area with a mixture of car shampoo and
water.
Do not fill the reservoir above the MAX
mark.
