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.

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.
