4. CAUTION WHEN SERVICING THE ENGINE

1) Cleaness

Engine has a lot of precisely machined (grinding, polishing, lapping) surfaces. Thus, there should be

great cautions for cleaness when servicing the engine components. Apply the engine oil on the sliding

surfaces when assemblying the components. Every component should be disassembled and

reassembled in accordance with the correct sequences. Before servicing the engine, the negative

cable should be diconnected from the battery. Otherwise, some electric or electronic components

could be damaged.

2) Servicing

Before service work, be sure to disconnect battery negative (-) terminal to prevent damages by bad

wire and short.

To prevent the foreign material from getting into engine cylinder, cover the inlet of air cleaner if the

air cleaner has been removed.

(1) Lifting up the vehicle

Always keep the safety precautions.

To prevent the vehicle from rolling down, put the chocks under the tires (when using a 4-post lift).

Make sure to support the correct lifting points (when using a 2-post lift)

engine to make contact with your skin.

(5) Tightening the fastener

If fine dust or foreign material enters into DI engine's fuel system, there can be serious damages

between HP pump and injectors. So, be sure to cover removed fuel system components with cap

and protect removed parts not to be contaminated with dirt. (Refer to cleanness in this manual

while working on DI engine fuel system)

When working on the fuel line between priming pump and injector (including return line), always

plug the openings with caps to prevent foreign materials or dust from entering to the openings and

connections.

The HP fuel supply pipe (HP pump to fuel rail) and HP fuel pipe (Fuel rail to injector) should be

replaced with new ones when removed.
