CAUTION
•
The oil level should be checked regularly. Op-
erating your vehicle with an insufficient
amount of oil can damage the engine, and
such damage is not covered by the warranty.
•
It is normal to add some engine oil between
oil maintenance intervals depending on the
severity of operating conditions or depending
on the property of the engine oil used. More
engine oil is consumed by frequent accelera-
tion/deceleration especially when the engine
rpm is high. Consumption is likely to be higher
when the engine is new. If the rate of oil con-
sumption, after having driven for 5,000 km
(3,000 miles), is more than 0.5 litre per 1,000
km (621 miles), consult an approved dealer or
qualified workshop.
CHANGING ENGINE OIL AND OIL
FILTER
Contact an approved dealer or qualified workshop
when the engine oil and oil filter require replace-
ment.
PROTECT ENVIRONMENT
It is illegal to pollute drains, watercourses and soil.
Use authorised waste collection facilities, including
civil amenity sites and garages providing facilities
for disposal of used oil and used oil filters. If in doubt,
contact your local authority for advice on disposal.
The regulations concerning the pollution of the
environment will vary from country to country.
AdBlue® TANK (where fitted for diesel engine model)
REFILLING THE AdBlue® TANK
When the [Refill AdBlue] warning appears in the ve-
hicle information display, refill the AdBlue® tank be-
fore the tank is empty (see "AdBlue® Selective Cata-
lytic Reduction (SCR) system" in the "5. Starting and
driving" section for the AdBlue® warning display.)
Refill the AdBlue® tank according to the procedures
shown in this section.
CAUTION
•
Use only AdBlue®. Using other fluids will dam-
age the AdBlue® Selective Catalytic Reduction
(SCR) system.
•
Be careful not to spill AdBlue®. If the AdBlue® is
spilled on the vehicle body, wipe it away with a
wet cloth immediately to avoid paint damage.
•
AdBlue® residues crystallize after a period of
time and contaminate the paint surfaces. If
the spilled AdBlue® has crystallized, use a
sponge and cold water to clean it.
•
When refilling the tank completely, add the Ad-
Blue® slowly to minimise the risk of spillage.
•
Be careful not to inhale any ammonia vapours
that may be released. Fill the AdBlue® tank in
well-ventilated areas.
•
Driving conditions (trailer towing, driving style,
etc) influence the AdBlue® consumption. The
consumption can vary from 0.5 L/100 km (125
miles/L) for severe use, to 0.1 L/100 km (625
miles/L) for mild use.
The AdBlue® tank is located underneath the vehicle.
(see "AdBlue® filler lid and cap" in the "3. Pre-driving
checks and adjustments" section for the AdBlue®
filler lid location.)
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Automatic Transmission (AT) model: Move the
shift lever to the P (Park) position.
Manual Transmission (MT) model: Move the shift
lever to the N (Neutral) position.
3. Place the ignition switch in the OFF position.
4. Open the AdBlue® filler lid.
5. Remove the AdBlue® tank cap by turning it anti-
clockwise.
6. Refill the AdBlue® tank.
7. Securely install the AdBlue® tank cap.
8. Close the AdBlue® filler lid.
9. Place the ignition switch in the ON position and
wait for approximately 1 minute until the (AdBlue
low) warning turns off.
