S08 MAINTENANCE
CHANGING THE OIL FILTER
Replace the oil filter every time the engine oil is drained.
1. Remove the oil filter with a filter wrench tool. Turn the
filter counter-clockwise (CCW). Remove the gasket.
2. Clean the mating surface in order to prevent impurities
from entering the engine.
3. Apply a film of oil on the new gasket. Screw the new
filter by hand with the new gasket. When the gasket
contacts the mating surface, turn the filter a half turn.
4. Fill with proper amount of new oil. Check for leaks and
check the oil level.
5. Start the engine and let it operate few minutes at idle.
Check if the oil pressure warning lamp turns off.
6. Stop the engine, wait for the engine to cool down and
check the oil level. Top up if necessary.
DRAINING THE ENGINE OIL
Principle of operation:
1. Start the engine and let it warm a few minutes to
render oil more fluid to ease suction.
2. Stop the engine and remove the key from the panel.
3. Connect a hose to the drain pump and place a
container under the disposal hose.
4. Pump all used oil out from the pan.
5. Disconnect the oil drain pump and replace the cap on
the drain pipe.
