Recommended engine oil
Jaguar recommends
When the oil level is at the lower dipstick
mark, add 1litres (1.1 US quart) of oil.
Oil specification
API SM and ILSAC GF-4.
When topping up between
oil changes, make sure that
you use oil that has the
correct quality level (API
service) and viscosity grade.
Note: For maximum fuel economy, 5W-30
oil is recommended.
Engine oil temperature ranges
For climates ranging from -35°C (– 31°F)
to + 50°C (+ 122°F), the following oil
viscosities may be used:
0W–30 will protect from -35°C (– 31°F) to
+ 35°C (+ 95°F).
5W–30 (preferred) will protect from -30°C
(–22°F) to +35°C (+95°F).
0W–40 will protect from – 35°C (– 31°F) to
+ 50°C (+ 122°F).
5W–40 will protect from –30°C (–22°F) to
+50°C (+122°F).
ENGINE COOLANT CHECK
!
WARNING:
It is unsafe to run the engine in an
overheated condition.
The radiator cooling fans may
continue to run after the ignition
has been switched off but will
automatically switch off when the
engine has cooled sufficiently.
Do not remove the coolant
reservoir filler cap while the engine
is hot. If it is essential, then protect
your hands against escaping
steam. Slowly turn the cap counter
clockwise to allow the steam
pressure to escape completely
before removing the cap.
Caution: If persistent coolant loss is
noticed, seek qualified assistance
immediately.
Check the level only when the engine is
cold. The coolant level should be between
the MAX and MIN indicators. If persistent
coolant loss is noticed, seek qualified
assistance immediately.
