Changing of Engine Oil and Oil Filter :
Change the oil and oil filter cartridge at specified intervals (Engine oil
and oil filter cartridge may be changed earlier if the car is operating in
sandy/dusty conditions). Changing of oil and oil filter requires access
from underneath the body. The car should be raised on a hoist at a
service station or should be parked on a service pit.
1. Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature. Then
shut it off.
2. Open the bonnet and remove the engine oil filler cap. Remove the
drain plug of the oil sump from the bottom of the engine. Drain
the oil into an appropriate container. Take proper care as the engine
oil will be hot.
3. Remove the oil filter with the help of a special wrench. Destroy the
filter to avoid reusage of the same.
4. Smear a little fresh engine oil on the rubber gasket of the new
engine oil filter. Hand tighten the engine oil filter and give a further
three fourth turn with the special tool.
Do not over tighten engine oil filter as this may damage oil
filter and oil may leak out.
5. Before filling in fresh oil in the engine, clean the drain plug and
threads on the sump. Apply Maxifix sealant on the threads.
6. Refit the drain plug using a new sealing washer.
Tighten the drain plug to 3.5 mkg. torque.
