ENGINE BREAK-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS
A long break-in period is not required for the
engine and drivetrain (transmission and axle)
in your vehicle.
Drive moderately during the first 300 miles
(500 km). After the initial 60 miles
(100 km), speeds up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or
90 km/h) are desirable.
While cruising, brief full-throttle accelera-
tion within the limits of local traffic laws
contributes to a good break-in. Wide-open
throttle acceleration in low gear can be detri -
mental and should be avoided.
The engine oil installed in the engine at the
factory is a high-quality energy conserving
type lubricant. Oil changes should be consis -
tent with anticipated climate conditions
under which vehicle operations will occur.
For the recommended viscosity and quality
grades, refer to “Fluids And Lubricants” in
“Technical Specifications”. NOTE:
A new engine may consume some oil during
its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of
operation. This should be considered a
normal part of the break-in and not inter
-
preted as a problem.
AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
NOTE:
You must press and hold the brake pedal
while shifting out of PARK. CAUTION!
Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight
Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may
result.
CAUTION!
Shift into or out of PARK or REVERSE
only after the vehicle has come to a
complete stop.
Do not shift between PARK, REVERSE,
NEUTRAL, or DRIVE when the engine is
above idle speed.
Before shifting into any gear, make sure
your foot is firmly pressing the brake
pedal.
WARNING!
Never use the PARK position as a substi -
tute for the parking brake. Always apply
the parking brake fully when exiting the
vehicle to guard against vehicle move-
ment and possible injury or damage.
Your vehicle could move and injure you
and others if it is not in PARK. Check by
trying to move the transmission gear
selector out of PARK with the brake
pedal released. Make sure the transmis-
sion is in PARK before exiting the
vehicle.
The transmission may not engage PARK
if the vehicle is moving. Always bring the
vehicle to a complete stop before
shifting to PARK, and verify that the
transmission gear position indicator
solidly indicates PARK (P) without
blinking. Ensure that the vehicle is
completely stopped, and the PARK posi -
tion is properly indicated, before exiting
the vehicle.

NOTE:
When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off,
the fuel tank is full.
Tighten the fuel filler cap about a quarter
turn until you hear one click. This is an
indication that the cap is properly tight-
ened.
If the fuel filler cap is not tightened prop -
erly, the MIL will come on. Be sure the
cap is tightened every time the vehicle is
refueled.
AdBlue® (UREA) — If Equipped
The vehicle is equipped with an AdBlue®
UREA injection system and Selective Cata -
lytic Reduction to meet emission standards.
These two systems ensure compliance with
the diesel emissions requirements; at the
same, they ensure fuel-efficiency, handling,
torque and power. For messages and system
warnings, refer to the “Warning Lights And
Messages” in the “Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel" section. AdBlue® (UREA)
is a very stable product with a long shelf life.
Stored at temperatures LOWER than 90°F
(32°C), it has a shelf life of at least one year.
For more information on the AdBlue®
(UREA) liquid type, see the “Fluids and
lubricants” in the “Technical specifications”
section. The vehicle is equipped with an
automatic AdBlue® (UREA) heating system
when the engine starts allowing the system
to work correctly at temperatures lower than
12°F (-11°C).
NOTE:
AdBlue® (UREA) freezes at temperatures
lower than 12°F (-11°C).Do not apply any object/cap to the end of
the filler which is not provided for the
car. The use of non-compliant objects/
plugs could cause a pressure increase
inside the tank, resulting in dangerous
situations.
A fire may result if fuel is pumped into a
portable container that is inside of a
vehicle. You could be burned. Always
place fuel containers on the ground
while filling.
CAUTION!
Damage to the fuel system or emission
control system could result from using
an improper fuel filler cap. A poorly
fitting cap could let impurities into the
fuel system. Also, a poorly fitting after -
market cap can cause the “Malfunction
Indicator Light (MIL)” to illuminate, due
to fuel vapors escaping from the system.
To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do
not “top off” the fuel tank after filling.
WARNING! (Continued)
CAUTION!
For diesel engines, only use diesel fuel for
motor vehicles in accordance with EN 590
European specifications. The use of other
products or mixtures may damage the
engine beyond repair and consequently
void the warranty, due to the damage
caused. If you accidentally introduce other
types of fuel into the tank, do not start the
engine. Empty the tank. If the engine has
been run for even an extremely limited
amount of time, you must not only drain
the fuel tank, but the rest of the supply
circuit as well.

in “Technical Specifications”. If in doubt
about the correct tightness, have them
checked with a torque wrench by an
authorized dealer or service station.
5. After 25 miles (40 km), check the lug nut torque with a torque wrench to
ensure that all lug nuts are properly
seated against the wheel.
WARNING!
A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a
collision or hard stop, could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the
jack parts and the spare tire in the places
provided.
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off
the jack, do not tighten the wheel nuts
fully until the vehicle has been lowered.
Failure to follow this warning may result in
serious injury.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
230(Continued)
Coolant Checks
Check the engine and, intercooler (if
equipped) coolant (antifreeze) protection
every 12 months (before the onset of
freezing weather, where applicable). If the
engine and, intercooler (if equipped) is dirty
or rusty in appearance, the system should be
drained, flushed and refilled with fresh OAT
coolant (conforming to MS.90032) by an
authorized dealer. Check the front of the A/C
condenser (if equipped) or radiator for any
accumulation of bugs, leaves, etc. If dirty,
clean by gently spraying water from a garden
hose vertically down the face of the A/C
condenser (if equipped) or the back of the
radiator core.Check the engine and, intercooler (if
equipped) cooling system hoses for brittle
rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, and tightness
of the connection at the coolant recovery
bottle and radiator. Inspect the entire system
for leaks. DO NOT REMOVE THE COOLANT
PRESSURE CAP WHEN THE COOLING
SYSTEM IS HOT.
Brake System
In order to ensure brake system perfor
-
mance, all brake system components should
be inspected periodically. Refer to the
“Maintenance Plan” in this section for the
proper maintenance intervals.
Fluid Level Check — Brake Master Cylinder
The fluid level of the master cylinder should
be checked whenever the vehicle is serviced,
or immediately if the brake system warning
light is on. If necessary, add fluid to bring
level within the designated marks on the side
of the reservoir of the brake master cylinder.
Be sure to clean the top of the master
cylinder area before removing cap. With disc
brakes, fluid level can be expected to fall as
the brake pads wear. Brake fluid level should
be checked when pads are replaced. If the
brake fluid is abnormally low, check the
system for leaks.
Refer to “Fluids And Lubricants” in “Tech -
nical Specifications” for further information.When working near the radiator cooling
fan, turn the ignition to the OFF mode.
The fan is temperature controlled and
can start at any time the ignition is in the
ON mode.
WARNING! (Continued)
WARNING!
Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure
and possibly a collision. Driving with your
foot resting or riding on the brake pedal
can result in abnormally high brake
temperatures, excessive lining wear, and
possible brake damage. You would not
have your full braking capacity in an
emergency. WARNING!
Use only manufacturer's recommended
brake fluid. Refer to “Fluids And Lubri -
cants” in “Technical Specifications” for
further information. Using the wrong
type of brake fluid can severely damage
your brake system and/or impair its
performance. The proper type of brake
fluid for your vehicle is also identified on
the original factory installed hydraulic
master cylinder reservoir.

Automatic Transmission
Selection Of Lubricant
It is important to use the proper transmission
fluid to ensure optimum transmission perfor-
mance and life. Use only the manufacturer's
specified transmission fluid. Refer to “Fluids
And Lubricants” in “Technical Specifica -
tions” for fluid specifications. It is important
to maintain the transmission fluid at the
correct level using the recommended fluid.
NOTE:
No chemical flushes should be used in any
transmission; only the approved lubricant
should be used.
Special Additives
The manufacturer strongly recommends
against using any special additives in the
transmission. Automatic Transmission Fluid
(ATF) is an engineered product and its
performance may be impaired by supple -
mental additives. Therefore, do not add any
fluid additives to the transmission. Avoid
using transmission sealers as they may
adversely affect seals.
To avoid contamination from foreign
matter or moisture, use only new brake
fluid or fluid that has been in a tightly
closed container. Keep the master cylinder
reservoir cap secured at all times. Brake
fluid in a open container absorbs moisture
from the air resulting in a lower boiling
point. This may cause it to boil unexpect -
edly during hard or prolonged braking,
resulting in sudden brake failure. This
could result in a collision.

Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can
result in spilling brake fluid on hot
engine parts, causing the brake fluid to
catch fire. Brake fluid can also damage
painted and vinyl surfaces, care should
be taken to avoid its contact with these
surfaces.
Do not allow petroleum based fluid to
contaminate the brake fluid. Brake seal
components could be damaged, causing
partial or complete brake failure. This
could result in a collision.
WARNING! (Continued)
CAUTION!
Using a transmission fluid other than the
manufacturer’s recommended fluid may
cause deterioration in transmission shift
quality and/or torque converter shudder.
Refer to “Fluids And Lubricants” in
“Technical Specifications” for fluid
specifications.
CAUTION!
Do not use chemical flushes in your
transmission as the chemicals can damage
your transmission components. Such
damage is not covered by the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.

FUEL REQUIREMENTS —
GASOLINE ENGINE
2.0L Engine
This engine is designed to meet all emission
regulations, and provide satisfactory fuel
economy and performance when using
high-quality unleaded gasoline with a recom -
mended RON of 95.
While operating on gasoline with the
required octane number, hearing a light
knocking sound from the engine is not a
cause for concern. However, if the engine is
heard making a heavy knocking sound, see
your dealer immediately. Use of gasoline
with a lower than recommended octane
number can cause engine failure and may
void or not be covered by the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
Poor quality gasoline can cause problems
such as hard starting, stalling, and hesita -
tions. If you experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before considering
service for the vehicle.
