Indication lamps
E00501600012Turn-signal indication lamps/
Hazard warning indication
lamps
E00501700068
These indication lamps
blink on and off
when a turn-signal lamp is operating.
NOTE
l If the blinking is too fast, the
cause may be a blown lamp bulb
or a faulty turn-signal connection.
When the hazard warning lamp switch is
pressed, all turn-signal lamps will flash
on and off continuously. High-beam indication lamp
E00501800072
This indication lamp

illuminates when
the high-beam is used. Front fog lamp indication
lamp*
E00501900132
This indication lamp

illuminates while
the front fog lamps are on. Rear fog lamp indication lamp
E00502000084
This lamp illuminates

while the rear fog
lamp is on. Position lamp indication lamp
E00508900102
This lamp illuminates

with the lamp
switch at “ ” or “ ” position
Diesel preheat indication lamp
(diesel-powered vehicles)
E00502300146
This indication lamp

illuminates when
the ignition switch is placed in the “ON”
position. As the glow plug becomes hot,
the lamp goes out and the engine can be
started. CAUTION
l
If the
diesel
preheat indication
lamp comes on after the engine
is started, the engine speed may
not rise above the idling speed
because of fuel freezing. In this
case, keep the engine idling for
about ten minutes, then turn
off the ignition switch and im-
mediately turn it on again to
confirm that the diesel preheat
indication lamp is off.
NOTE l If
the engine

is cold, the diesel pre-
heat indication lamp is on for a lon-
ger time. l
When the
engine
has not been star-
ted within about 5 seconds after
the diesel preheat indication lamp
went out, return the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position.
Then, turn the switch to the “ON”
position to preheat the engine
again.
l When the engine is warm, the die-
sel preheat indication lamp does
not come on even if the ignition
switch is placed in the “ON” posi-
tion. Fuel filter indication lamp (die-
sel-powered vehicles)
E00509900239
This indication lamp

illuminates when
the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position and goes off after the engine
has started. If it lights up while the en-
gine is running, it indicates that water
has accumulated inside the fuel filter; if
this happens, remove the water from the
fuel filter. Refer to “Removal of water
from the fuel filter (diesel-powered vehi-
cles only)” on page 6-06.
When the lamp goes out, you can re-
sume driving. If it either does not go out
or comes on from time to time, we rec-
ommend you to have the vehicle inspec-
ted. Instruments and controls

On vehicles with A/T, make sure
the selector
lever is in the “P” (PARK) position.
Vehicles with M/T Vehicles with A/T6. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” position.
The diesel preheat

indication lamp will first
illuminate, and then after a short time go out,
indicating that preheating is completed.
NOTE l If the engine is cold, the diesel preheat indi-
cation lamp is on for a longer time.
l When the engine has not been started within
about 5 seconds after the diesel preheat indi-
cation lamp went out, return the ignition key
to the “LOCK” position. Then, turn the key
to the “ON” position to preheat the engine
again.
l When the engine is warm, the diesel preheat
indication lamp does not come on even if the
ignition key is placed in the “ON” position.
Start the engine by turning the ignition key
right to the “START” position. 7. Turn the ignition key to the “START” posi-
tion without depressing the accelerator pedal,
and release it when the engine starts.
Fuel injection amount learning proc-
ess (diesel-powered vehicles) E00616000044
To keep

exhaust emissions and engine noise low,
the engine very

occasionally performs a learning
process for the fuel injection amount.
The engine sounds slightly different from usual
while the learning process is taking place. The
change in the engine sound does not indicate a fault. Diesel particulate filter (DPF)*
E00619800027
The diesel particulate

filter (DPF) is a device that
captures most of the particulate matter (PM) in the
exhaust emissions of the diesel engine. The DPF au-
tomatically burns away trapped PM during vehicle
operation. Under certain driving conditions, howev-
er, the DPF is not able to burn away all of the trap-
ped PM and, as a result, an excessive amount of
PM accumulates inside it. WARNING
l The DPF reaches very high temperatures.
Do not
park

your vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry grass
or leaves can come in contact with a hot
exhaust system since a fire could occur. CAUTION
l
Do not use
any type of fuel or engine oil
that is not specified for your vehicle. Al-
so, do not use any moisture-removing
agent or other fuel additive. Such substan-
ces could have a detrimental effect on the
DPF.
Refer to “Fuel selection” on page 02 and
“Engine oil” on page 8-04.
NOTE l To
minimize the

likelihood of excessive ac-
cumulation of PM, try to avoid driving for
long periods at low speeds and repeatedly
driving short distances. Starting and driving

Bleeding the fuel system (diesel-
powered vehicles only) E00800700149
The fuel system should be bled to remove air as de-
scribed below if the fuel supply is exhausted during
travel.

Pump the hand
pump (A) at the top of the fuel fil-
ter until the hand pump becomes stiff.
Then try again to start the engine.
If the engine does not start, repeat the process above. Removal of water from the fuel
filter (diesel-powered vehicles only) E00800800140
If the fuel
filter indication lamp in the instrument
panel illuminates during driving, it indicates that wa-
ter has accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs,
remove the water as described below. 1. Loosen the drain plug (A) at the bottom ofthe fuel filter. 2. Operate the hand pump (B) slowly 6 or 7
times in order to force the water out through
the drain plug. 3. Tighten the drain plug when water no longer
comes out.
4. Bleed the air in the fuel system.
(Refer

to “Bleeding the fuel system” on page
6-06.)
5. Check to be sure that the fuel filter indication lamp illuminates when the ignition switch is
turned to “ON”, and that it goes off when the
engine is started. If in doubt, we recommend
you to have your vehicle inspected. CAUTION
l
Do not
smoke
or have any other open
flame near the vehicle while bleeding the
fuel system.
l Be sure to carefully clean away any water
drained out because any fuel mixed with
the water could ignite and cause a fire. For emergencies

OBKE12E1

Use only the recommended oils with an ACEA or
API classification as specified in this manual.
NOTE
l For
3200 models,
check or refill the oil ac-
cording to the following manner. • When the oil level is checked in step 6above, check it on a low side of the dip-
stick because it is different in appearance
of oil level in the two sides of the dipstick.
• On vehicles without diesel particulate fil- ter (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 dip-
stick.
If the oil level is beyond the oil replace-
ment indication mark (C), replace the oil
as soon as possible.
Then, the oil should be refilled to the max-
imum level (B).
• On vehicles with DPF, the engine oil will increase due to a little fuel getting mixed
in the engine oil when the DPF regener-
ates to burn away the PM (particulate mat-
ter). However, it does not indicate a mal-
function.
l The engine oil will deteriorate rapidly if the
vehicle is subjected to severe conditions, re-
quiring earlier oil replacement. Please refer
to the maintenance schedule.
l For handling of used engine oils, refer to
page 06. Selection of engine oil
Petrol-powered vehicles
l
Select engine
oil
of the proper SAE viscosity
number according to the atmospheric temper-
ature.
SAE 0W-30, 5W-30, and 5W-40 engine oils
can only be used if they meet ACEA A3/B3,
A3/B4 or A5/B5 and API SM (or higher) spec-
ifications.
l Use engine oil conforming to the following
classification:
• API classification: “For service SM” orhigher
• ILSAC certificated oil
• ACEA classification: “For service A1/B1, A3/B3, A3/B4 or
A5/B5” NOTE
l Use
of additives

is not recommended since
they may reduce the effectiveness of addi-
tives already included in the engine oil. It
may result in failure of the mechanical assem-
bly.
Diesel-powered vehicles
Vehicles without diesel particulate filter (DPF) l
Select engine
oil
of the proper SAE viscosity
number according to the atmospheric temper-
ature.
l Use engine oil conforming to the following
classification:
• ACEA classification:“For service A1/B1, A3/B3, A3/B4,
A5/B5, C1, C2, C3 or C4”
• API classification: “For service CD” or higher
• JASO classification: “For service DL-1”
