ensuring  that  the  plug  is  not  over  tight-
ened.
Remove  the oil  filter  by rotating  counter-
clockwise, using  a proprietary  oil filter  re-
moval  tool if  necessary. Note  that  the oil
filter will contain approximately 0.5 litres of

sealing  ring   with  clean  oil  and   rotating
clockwise until the filter contacts the mount-
ing and then a further one half turn. Do not
over-tighten
Do not  remove the  radiator cap  when the
engine is hot, since the system is pressur-
ized and  coolant may be  ejected from  the
radiator resulting in scalding.

Only  ethylene  glycol  based   coolant  with  a
corrosion  inhibitor  suited to  aluminium  alloy
engine  components  should  be  used  in  the
cooling system. No  further additives or inhibi-
tors  should   be  used.  The  coolant   specific
gravity  should  be checked  as  prescribed  in
the maintenance schedule to ensure adequate
frost and corrosion protection.  In addition, the
engine coolant must be replaced at the speci-
fied interval since the corrosion inhibitor prop-
erties deteriorate  with  time.

.  Pour  the specified  quantity of  the recom-
mended oil into the engine and replace the
filler cap. Start the  engine and ensure that
no oil leaks  exist. Turn off  the engine and
after  a  couple   minutes,  recheck  the  oil
level.

It is  important to note  that whilst an  increase
in  the concentration  of  anti  freeze  gives an
increase  in  the   level  of  frost  protection,  a
solution which is in excess of  65% anti freeze
will  result   in  reduced   frost  protection  and
engine  overheating.   Therefore   the  recom-
mended concentration  of 50%  should not  be
exceeded  for general  use.
WARNING:
Prolonged and repeated contact with used
engine oils may  result in serious skin  dis-
orders  including   dermatitis  and  cancer.
Avoid contact with  skin as far as  possible
and always wash thoroughly after any con-
tact.  Keep used  oils out  of  reach of  chil-
dren.  It is  illegal  to  pollute  drains, water
courses and soil. Use only authorized waste
collection facilities including civic amenity

The use  of methanol based  anti freeze  com-
pounds may result  in engine overheating and
will invalidate the vehicle warranty.
