Check the following regularly, particularly before
starting on a long journey.
1.
Fuel level in tank
Top up if required with correct diesel fuel, secure cap
and lock the flap.
2.
Engine oil level
Check engine oil level before starting the engine or at
least 20 minutes after stopping the engine. Top up if oil
level is less than midway between upper and lower
marks on the dipstick.
The oil level should not exceed the ‘MAX’ mark.
Use only the genuine co- branded oils.
3.
Coolant level
With the engine cool, check the coolant in the auxiliary
tank. The level should be between the “FULL’ and “MIN’
mark, top up with the recommended coolant. Bring the
level upto the ‘FULL’ mark. The level must not exceed the
‘FULL’ mark. If the coolant level drops within a short time
after replenishing, there may be a leak in the system.
Rectify the leakage and top up radiator also.
Use genuine co- branded coolant.
If no leak can be found inspection should be carried out
at an authorised service outlet.
