NOTE: It is normal for water to drip from the air conditioning system after use.
4) Make sure the hood is fully closed and latched.5) Check the headlights, turn signal lights, brake lights and horn for proper opera- tion.6) Adjust the seat and head restraint (if equipped). 7) Check the brake pedal and the parkingbrake lever. 8) Adjust the mirrors. 9) Make sure that you and all passengershave properly fastened your seat belts. 10)Make sure that all warning lights come on as the key is turned to the “ON” posi-tion. 11)Check all gauges. 12)Make sure that the BRAKE SYSTEMWARNING light turns off when the parking brake is released.
Once a week, or each time you fill your fuel tank, perform the following under-hood checks:
1) Engine oil level 2) Coolant level3) Brake fluid level 4) Windshield washer fluid level 5) Battery solution level6) Hood latch operation Pull the hood release handle inside the vehicle. Make sure that you cannotopen the hood all the way without
releasing the secondary latch. Be sure to close the hood securely after check- ing for proper latch operation. See “Alllatches, hinges & locks” of “CHASSIS AND BODY” in the “Periodic Mainte- nance Schedule” in the “INSPECTIONAND MAINTENANCE” section for lubri- cation schedule.
Once a month, or each time you fill your fuel tank, check the tire pressure using a tire pressure gauge. Also check the tirepressure of the spare tire.
Engine Oil Consumption
It is normal for the engine to consume some engine oil during normal vehicle operation.
The amount of engine oil consumed depends on the viscosity of the oil, thequality of the oil and the conditions the vehicle is driven under. More oil is consumed during high-speeddriving and when there is frequent acceler- ation and deceleration. Under high loads, your engine also will consume more oil.A new engine also consumes more oil, since its pistons, piston rings and cylinder
walls have not yet become conditioned. New engines reach the normal level of oil consumption only after approximately 5000km (3000 miles) driving.
Oil consumption: Max. 1.0 L per 1000 km (1 Qt. per 600 miles)
When judging the amount of oil consump- tion, note that the oil may become diluted and make it difficult to accurately judge thetrue oil level. As an example, if a vehicle is used for repeated short trips, and consumes a nor-mal amount of oil, the dipstick may not show any drop in the oil level at all, even after 1000 km (600 miles) or more of driv-ing. This is because the oil is gradually becoming diluted with fuel or moisture, making it appear that the oil level has notchanged. You should also be aware that the diluting ingredients evaporate out when the vehicleis subsequently driven at high speeds, such as on an expressway, making it appear that oil is excessively consumedafter high-speed driving.
WA R N I N G
Make sure the hood is fully closed and latched before driv ing. If it is not, it can fly up unexpectedly duringdriving, obstructing your view and resulting in an accident.

(1) Preferred
Be sure that the engine oil you use comes under the quality classification of ACEAA5/B5-10. Select the appropriate oil vis- cosity according to the above chart.
Oil Level Check
76MH030
(1) Engine oil dipstick (Petrol engine) (2) Engine oil dipstick (Diesel engine)
It is important to keep the engine oil at the correct level for proper lubrication of yourvehicle’s engine. Check the oil level with the vehicle on a level surface. The oil level indication may be inaccurate if the vehicleis on a slope. The oil level should be checked either before starting the engine or at least 5 minutes after stopping theengine.
The handle of the engine oil dipstick is col- ored yellow for easy identification.
52D084
Pull out the oil dipstick, wipe oil off with aclean cloth, insert the dipstick all the way into the engine, then remove it again. Theoil on the stick should be between the upper and lower limits shown on the stick. If the oil level indication is near the lowerlimit, add enough oil to raise the level to the upper limit.

Refilling
81A147
Remove the oil filler cap and pour oil slowly through the filler hole to bring the oil level to the upper limit on the dipstick. Be careful not to overfill. Too much oil is almost asbad as too little oil. After refilling, start the engine and allow it to idle for about a min- ute. Stop the engine, wait about 5 minutesand check the oil level again.
Changing Engine Oil and FilterDrain the engine oil while the engine is stillwarm.

(1) Engine oil filler cap (Petrol engine)(2) Engine oil filler cap (Diesel engine)
1) Remove the oil filler cap. 2) Place a drain pan under the drain plug.3) Using a wrench, remove the drain plug and drain out the engine oil.

Tightening torque for drain plug (1):Petrol engine: 35 Nm (3.6 kg -m, 25.8 lb-ft) Diesel engine: 35 Nm (3.6 kg -m, 25.8 lb-ft)
NOTICE
(For Diesel Engine Model) Do not top up the oil over the MAX limit. Too much oil causes serious engine trouble.
