As it is normal for engine oil to be consumed during driving,
the engine oil level should be checked on regular basis.
The engine oil change interval for normal operating condi -
tions is based on the use of the recommended engine
specification. If the recommended engine oil specification is
not used, then replace the engine oil according to the
maintenance schedule under severe operating conditions.
When adding coolant, use only deionized water or soft water
for your vehicle and never mix hard water in the coolant filled
at the factory. An improper coolant mixture can result in seri -
ous malfunction or engine damage.

equipped) drive belt. Inspect and if necessary repair or
