SERVICE PRECAUTIONSWhen performing any inspection or mainte-nance work on your vehicle, always exer-cise care to reduce the risk of personal in-jury or damage to the vehicle.Here are some general precautions thatshould be closely observed in carrying outany service operation.

• Do not work on the engine while it is hot.Always turn it off and allow it to cool.

• Never get under the vehicle while it issupported by a jack. If it is necessaryto work under the vehicle, use safetystands.

• Keep smoking materials, flames, andsparks away from the battery and allfuel and fuel-related parts.

• Never connect or disconnect either thebattery or any transistorized componentwhile the ignition switch is ON.

• When connecting the battery cables, payspecial attention to their polarities. Neverconnect a positive cable to a negativeterminal or a negative cable to a posi-tive terminal.

• Remember that the battery, ignitioncables, and vehicle wiring carry highcurrents or voltage. Be careful not tocause a short circuit.

• When performing any checks in an en-closed space with the engine running,such as in a garage, be sure there isproper ventilation.

• Keep used oil, coolant and other fluidsout of reach of children and pets.

• Empty and used oil/fluid containersmust not be disposed of in the house-hold refuse waste. Use your local au-thorized waste disposal facilities whendisposing of them.

• If it is necessary to check beneath theengine hood with the engine running,park the vehicle on level ground, placethe shift lever in NEUTRAL (manualtransmission) or “P” position (automatictransmission) and apply the parkingbrake firmly. Unexpected and possiblysudden vehicle movement may occurif these precautions are not taken.

• To avoid the possibility of personal in-jury, you should always turn off the ig-nition switch and remove the key be-fore working under the engine hood un-less the procedure specifically requiresotherwise. If it requires running the en-gine while working under the enginehood, do not permit any clothing, suchas ties or handkerchiefs, near the en-gine or cooling fan. They can becomeentangled in moving parts and result inpersonal injury and damage to the ve-hicle. Also remove watches, bracelets,and rings for safety.



Within the Engine Compartment1. Check the engine oil level.2. Check the engine coolant level in the

surge tank.3. Check the battery condition.4. Check the level of windshield washer

solution.5. Check the level of the brake and clutch

fluid in the reservoir.6. Check the level of the power steering

fluid.

A NOTE ON SAFETYTo avoid the possibility of injury from thecooling fan, carry out all engine checks withthe ignition switched off so that the fan isnot operating.The fan is controlled by ECU (electroniccontrol unit) and consequently may start tooperate unexpectedly.

When the ignition is on, it is also highly dan-gerous to touch live parts as the electronicignition system has a greater current igni-tion power than conventional systems.

DRIVER’S CHECK LISTThe following checks are recommendedbefore driving to maintain safe and depend-able vehicle operation.

Exterior1. Check the tyres for inflation pressure

and damage.2. Check the wheel bolts for looseness.3. Check the operation of the lights.4. Check for any oil, water, fuel and fluid

leaks.

WARNING

You can injury, burn or shock.• Make sure engine is off.• Do not touch live parts when

lgnition is on.

WARNING

Keep service products away fromchildren. If a service product has beenswallowed, consult a doctor withoutdelay.Dispose of service product in an en-vironmentally responsible way.

Within the Vehicle1. Check for steering wheel play and

looseness.2. Check the parking brake lever travel.3. Check the operation of the horn, wind-

shield wipers and turn signals.4. Check the operation of instruments and

indicator warning lights.5. Check level of fuel in the fuel tank

against fuel gauge.6. Check the position of the rearview mir-

rors.7. Check the operation of the door locking

mechanism.8. Check the clutch pedal free play, height

and function.9. Check the brake pedal free play, height

and function.



ENGINE OILChecking ProcedureThe engine oil must be kept at the right levelto help assure proper lubrication of yourvehicle’s engine. It is normal for an engineto use some oil. It is owner’s responsibilityto check the oil level at regular intervals(such as every fuel stop).The engine oil level should be checked withthe vehicle standing on level ground.After stopping the engine, wait a few min-utes before checking the level for the oil todrain back to the oil pan. If the engine is cold,the oil may take considerably longer to drainback.To check the oil level, pull out the dipstick,wipe it clean and reinsert it as far as it will

go. Pull it out again and check that the oillevel is between the lower mark (Min) andthe upper mark (Max) on the oil dipstick.Also check the oil on the dipstick rod forcontamination.If the level gets to the lower point, addenough oil not to exceed the level of theupper mark.The oil should not go above the upper markon the dipstick. This would lead, for ex-ample, to increased oil consumption, foul-ing of the spark plugs and excessive for-mation of carbon residue.When replenishing, use the same specifi-cation of oil as used at the last oil change.

WARNING

Prolonged and repeated contact withengine oil may cause skin disorders.• Avoid excessive skin contact.• Wash thoroughly after contact.

WARNING

Keep used engine oil out of reach ofchildren.

Diesel engine Gasoline engine

Proper oil level



CAUTION

Operating with insufficient or toomuch amount of oil can damage theengine.• Check engine oil regularly.• Top up if required.• Don’t add too much oil.

CAUTION

In order to ensure sufficient lubrica-tion of the moving parts, select en-gine oil viscosity (SAE grades) ac-cording to ambient temperature.

NOTE

Damage to the engine by operatingwith insufficient oil invalidates thewarranty.

COOLANT LEVELThe cooling system is filled with an ethyl-ene glycol base coolant.In the correct concentration the coolant pro-vides excellent corrosion and freeze protec-tion for the entire cooling and heating sys-tem and must therefore not be replaced byplain water even in summer.The coolant level should be between “LOW”and “FULL” mark on the coolant surge tankwhen the engine is cool. The level rises atengine operating temperature and dropsagain when the engine cools down.If the level falls below the “LOW” mark, refillthe radiator with a 50/50 mix of distilledwater and antifreeze specified, to providefreezing and corrosion protection.

Severe Conditions• When most trips are less than 6km.• Operating when outside temperatures

remain below freezing and when mosttrips are less than 16km.

• When most trips include extended idlingand/or frequent low-speed operation asin stop-and-go traffic.

• When operating in dusty areas.• Towing a trailer.

Engine Oil and Oil Filter ChangeEngine oil changes are to be carried outdepending on time intervals and mileage in-tervals, since oil loses its lubrication prop-erties not only through engine operation butalso through ageing.

Under exceptional conditions e.g. frequentcold starts or extra urban traffic and con-gestion of traffic, the engine oil and engineoil filter should be changed at shorter in-tervals rather than the recommended main-tenance schedule.Engine oil filter elements should be re-placed at the same time with engine oil.

WARNING

Used engine oil and their containerscan be a hazard to health and the en-vironment.• Do not dispose of used engine oil

in household refuse waste.• Use your local authorized waste

disposal facilities when disposingof used engine oil.



In order to protect your vehicle in extremelycold weather, use a mix 40% distilled waterand 60% antifreeze specified.

Coolant Concentration

WARNING

Scalding hot coolant and steam couldbe blown out under pressure, whichcould cause serious injury.Never remove the coolant surge tankcap when the engine and radiator arehot.

WARNING

Take precautions to prevent anti-freeze coming in contact with the skinor eyes.• If contact happens, rinse affected

areas immediately with plenty ofwater.

• If irritation persists, consult doctor.

CAUTION

The engine or cooling system couldbe damaged.• The antifreeze content of the cool-

ant should be maintained at a mini-mum of 50%. The antifreeze con-tent must not be allowed to exceed60%.

• Do not use alcohol or methanol an-tifreeze or mix them with the speci-fied coolant.

• Use only distilled water in the cool-ant mixture.

• Do not overfill the coolant.• If frequent additions are required,

contact Ssangyong Dealer for cool-ing system check.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONFLUID*To ensure proper functioning, efficiency anddurability of the automatic transmission, it isof the utmost importance that the fluid is al-ways kept at the proper level.

The automatic transmission (M74LE) doesnot have a dipstick to check the fluid level.You may have the fluid level checked byyour Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Au-thorized Service Operation.

The only way for the fluid level to decreaseis that the automatic transmission developsa leak.If a fluid leak occurs the vehicle should betaken to your Ssangyong Dealer orSsangyong Authorized Service Operation tobe repaired as soon as possible.

Fluid should not be added to the automatictransmission without properly setting thefluid level. Overfilling the automatic transmis-sion fluid will decrease the automatic trans-mission performance and could damage theunit.

Use only specified fluid as given in the lu-bricant chart.

The fluid and filter do not require changing.But, if the vehicle is mainly driven under anyof below conditions, the fluid and filter shouldbe changed every 60,000km (36,000miles).

• In heavy city traffic where the outsidetemperature regularly reaches 32°C(90°F) or higher.

• In hilly or mountains terrain.• When doing frequent trailer towing.• Uses such as found in taxi, police or

delivery service.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION FLUIDCheck the oil level only when the engine isoff, the vehicle is level and the transmissionis cool enough so that you can rest your fin-gers on the transmission case.Remove the filler plug to check the level.The oil should come to the bottom edge ofthe filler plug hole. If level is low, add oil untilit begins to run out of the filler hole. Rein-stall the plug securely.Use only the specified oil as given in thelubricant chart.After installing the plug, visually check thetransmission case for leaks or damage.



POWER STEERING FLUIDCheck fluid level with engine turned off.The fluid level should lie between the MINand MAX marks on the reservoir.If it drops to or below the MIN mark, top upwith the specified fluid.

Use only specified fluid as given in the lu-bricant chart.

The level in the reservoir should be checkedin accordance with the intervals specifiedin this manual.

WINDSHIELD WIPERSProperly functioning windshield wipers areessential for safe driving and clear vision.Check condition of wiper blades from timeto time. Hardened, brittle or smearing bladesmust be replaced.

Since there is no way to successfully re-move traces of silicone from any glass, becertain not to apply any polish containingsilicone to the windshield of your vehiclesince this will result in streaks which impairvision.

Contamination of either the window or thewiper blades with foreign matter can reducethe effectiveness of the windshield wipers.

If the blades are not wiping properly, cleanboth the window and the blades with a goodcleaner or mild detergent, and rinse thor-oughly with clear water.Repeat if necessary.

To replace the wiper blade, press the retain-ing clip and pull the wiper blade off the arm.Simply push the new wiper blade onto thearm.

WARNING

• Do not use radiator antifreeze inwindshield washer. It can damagethe washer system and paint.

• Do not mix water with washer fluid.Water can cause the solution tofreeze and damage washer fluidtank and other parts of washer sys-tem.

• Fill washer fluid tank only 3/4 fullwhen it is very cold. This allows forexpansion, which could damagethe tank if it is completely full.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER*The catalytic converter is located betweenexhaust manifold and center muffler. Thecatalytic converter consists of monolithswith honeycomb shaped structure of ce-ramic material which are elastically mountedin a mat.This precious metal coating on the monolithsaccelerate the reduction and/or oxidation oftoxic components.On vehicles with a catalytic converter forunleaded fuel, lead fuel will damage thecatalytic converter and parts of the elec-tronic system, thereby rendering them inop-erative.

Damage to the Catalytic Converter or

the Vehicle May Result If the Following

Points Are Not Observed :

• Consult a Ssangyong Dealer orSsangyong Authorized Service Opera-tion as Quickly as possible in the eventof misfiring, irregular engine running fol-lowing a cold start, a significant loss ofengine power or other unusual malfunc-tions which may indicate a fault in theignition system.If necessary, driving may be continuedfor a short time at a low speed and withlow engine revolutions.

PARKING BRAKECheck the stroke of the parking brake bycounting the number of notch clicks heardwhile fully applying it from the released po-sition.Also, the parking brake alone should se-curely hold the vehicle on a fairly steepgrade. If the number of clicks is more or lessthan specified, have the parking brake ad-justed by a Ssangyong Dealer orSsangyong Authorized Service Operation.

WHEELS AND TYRESFactory-fitted tyres are matched to the chas-sis and offer optimum driving, comfort andsafety. Consult your Ssangyong Dealer orSsangyong Authorized Service Operationbefore changing over to different tyres orrims and obtain their advice as regards tech-nical possibilities. Use of unsuitable tyres orrims may lead to accidents.

Tyre Inflation PressureMaintaining the specified tyre pressure isessential for driver comfort, driving safetyand long tyre life. Check the tyre pressure,including the spare wheel, at least every 14days and prior to any long journey. The tyresshould be checked in a cold condition usingan accurate tyre pressure gauge.

Increased pressure resulting from tyrewarm-up must not be reduced, otherwisethe pressure may drop below the permis-sible minimum.Securely retighten valve caps after check-ing pressure.Incorrect inflation pressures will increasetyre wear and will impair safety, vehicle han-dling, comfort and fuel economy.If the pressure is too low, this can result inconsiderable tyre warm-up and internal dam-age, leading to tread separation and evento tyre blowout at high speeds.Hidden tyre damage is not eliminated by sub-sequently adjusting the inflation pressure.

You Should Therefore Avoid :

• Frequent repeated cold starts.• Actuation of the starter for an unnec-

essarily long time during starting (fuelis injected during the starting proce-dure).

• Allowing the tank to become empty (anirregular fuel supply leads to overheat-ing)

• Starting the engine by pushing or tow-ing (unburned fuel may enter the cata-lytic converter) : use jump leads.

Have all maintenance work carried out bya Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Autho-rized Service Operation. You can then becertain that all components of the vehicle’selectrical, injection and ignition system willbe operating correctly, that your vehicle hasa low level of pollutant emission and that thecatalytic converter system will have a longlife.

Check tread depth regularly. To help youdetect when the tyres should be replaced,the tyres on your vehicle have built-in treadwear indicators that appear between thetread grooves when the tread is 1.6mm orless. The tyres should be replaced when thetread worn down as far as one of the wearindicators. The wear indicator’s position isindicated by markings on the tyre side wall.For safety reasons, it is recommended thatthe tyres be replaced when their tread depthhas worn down to 2 ~ 3 mm.When replacing the tyres, the radial tyresshould be fitted in pairs, or for preferencein sets.

Make sure that both tyres on an axle are thesame size, the same design, and the samemake and have the same tread pattern.

Tyre Condition, Rim ConditionDriving over sharp edges can lead to hid-den tyre damage and rim damage which isonly noticed later on : there is a danger oftyre blowout.Drive over edges slowly and at right angleif possible. When parking, ensure that thetyres are not pressed against the edge ofthe curb.Check tyres regularly for damage (foreignbodies, punctures, cuts, cracks, bulges inside walls). A damaged tyre could burst.Check rims for damage. In the event ofdamage or abnormal wear, consult aSsangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Autho-rized Service Operation.Abnormal wear is usually caused by incor-rect tyre pressure, lack of regular rotation,improper wheel alignment, out-of-balancetyres, severe braking or poor driving habit.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of loss of vehiclecontrol and personal injury;• Property inflate tyres.• Do not overload vehicle.

WARNING

Mixing tyres could cause you to losecontrol while driving.Using tyres of different sizes may alsocause damage to the vehicle.Be sure to use the same size and typetyres on all wheels.

WARNING

Driving on worn, old or damagedtyres is very dangerous and cancause accidents.Replace tyres if ;• The tread wear indicator appears,

or tyres have been damaged.

WARNING

Dispose of worn tyres in accordancewith local environmental regulations.

Winter TyresIf winter tyres are used they must be fittedto all 4 wheels. Do not exceed the maximumspeed specified by the tyre manufacturer.When using winter tyres, the tyre pressuressupplied by the tyre manufacturer must beadhered to.

Tyre RotationFront and rear tyres perform different jobsand can wear differently depending on thetyres of road driven, driving habit, etc.To avoid uneven wear of tyres and to pro-long tyre life, inspect and rotate your tyresevery 5,000km. After rotating, adjust the tyrepressure and be sure to check wheel boltstightness. WARNING

Using of winter tyres could adverselyaffect safety and handling of the ve-hicle.• Use equivalent size and type to

vehicle’s standard tyres.• Change over from winter to sum-

mer tyres as son as road conditionallow.

WARNING

Using of tyre chains could adverselyaffect safety and handling of the ve-hicle.If necessary, consult your SsangyongDealer.
