Engine oil and engine oil filter
(For Diesel Engine)
• If the recommended oil is not available, replace engine oil
and engine oil filter every 20,000 km (13,000 miles) or 12
months.
• The engine oil level should be checked regularly and
maintained properly. Operating with an insufficient
amount oil can damage the engine, and such damage is
not covered by warranty.
• This maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. It is
applicable only when using a qualified fuel <"EN590 or
equivalent">. If the diesel fuel specifications don't meet
the EN590, it must be replaced according to the severe
maintenance schedule.

knock Index) 87 or higher (except Europe).

cluding fuel additives regularly, and have problems starting

tives added to the fuel tank at every 15,000 km
