MAINTENANCE ENGINE OIL & ENGINE COOLANT<br />

ENGINE OIL LEVEL<br />

1. Engine Filling Cap 2. Dip Stick<br />

Engine oil level should be checked<br />

when engine is cold. Allow at least<br />

30 mins. for engine oil to settle before<br />

checking oil level.<br />

1. For checking engine oil level, pull<br />

out the dipstick from the engine<br />

oil case, wipe it clean with a cloth<br />

or a paper napkin.<br />

2. Insert it again to its original<br />

position.<br />

3. Pull out the dipstick again and<br />

observe the oil level on the<br />

dipstick.<br />

4. If the oil level is below the mid<br />

point of min. and max. marks, top<br />

up using recommended grade of<br />

oil.<br />

NOTICE<br />

Oil level should not exceed the<br />

max. Mark. Always check the oil<br />

level when the car is on a level<br />

ground and the engine in cold<br />

condition.<br />

72<br />

Check the engine oil level if “low oil<br />

pressure” warning comes 'ON' while<br />

driving. Failure to check the oil level<br />

regularly could lead to serious<br />

trouble due to insufficient oil.<br />

ENGINE OIL TOPUP<br />

Remove the oil filler cap and pour oil<br />

slowly through the filler hole to bring<br />

the oil level to the upper limit on the<br />

dipstick. Be careful not to overfill. Too<br />

much oil is almost as bad as too little<br />

oil. After refilling, start the engine and<br />

allow it to idle for about a minute. Stop<br />

the engine; let the oil settle and check<br />

oil level again.<br />

ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL<br />

The coolant level in the coolant no-loss<br />

tank should be between max. & min.<br />

marks. This can be viewed through a<br />

translucent reservoir. If less, add<br />

coolant up to the max. mark and refit<br />

the cap properly.
