module (or get one from your facilitator/trainer) to write your answers for
each self-check. If you have questions, don’t hesitate to ask your facilitator
for assistance.
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
You may already have some or most of the knowledge and skills
covered in this learner's guide because you have:
been working for some time
already completed training in this area.
If you can demonstrate to your trainer that you are competent in a
particular skill or skills, talk to him/her about having them formally
recognized so you do not have to do the same training again. If you have a
qualification or Certificate of Competency from previous trainings, show it to
your trainer. If the skills you acquired are still current and relevant to the
unit/s of competency they may become part of the evidence you can present
for RPL. If you are not sure about the currency of your skills, discuss this
with your trainer.
A Record of Achievement is also provided for your trainer to
complete once you complete the module.
This module was prepared to help you achieve the required

INFORMATION SHEET 4.1-1
Identifying Appropriate Manuals
Learning Objective:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, trainee must be able to:
1. identify appropriate manuals
Owning a car cultivates so many responsibilities for the owner.
She/he has to look after its repair, cleaning and maintenance. To execute
various tasks for a car, you always need a manual. A new car will be
accompanied with a manual that will help you understand about its features
and maintenance.
Types of Car Manuals
I. Factory service manuals (FSM)
FSM are the manuals provided by manufacturers which cover the
servicing, maintenance and repair of their products. They were not originally
offered to the public as they were developed for the dealerships so that their
mechanics were able to fix their own products.
Workshop manuals
Workshop manuals provide
repair and service procedures for
many vehicles including
maintenance of automotive, cars,
motorbikes, trucks, marines and
ATV vehicles, but not limited to
these.
a. Repair manuals
provide all the information https://encrypted-

maintain the vehicle to a
high standard, whether it
is changing the air filter,
checking tyre pressures, to
more in-depth jobs such
as an engine overhaul, to
changing the timing belt
and head gasket

b. Service manuals
covers all aspects of the
vehicle, from servicing
schedules to maintenance such
as changing the oil at 10,000
miles with oil grade 5W40 or
checking tire pressures at 5000
mile intervals and inflate to

manual having them in an electronic format
(DVD or an Instant Download) is a huge
advantage over having a book since there is no
getting oil or dirty hands on them.
II. Owner’s and Driver’s Manual
All new cars come with an owner's
manual from the manufacturer. Most owners
leave them in the glove compartment for easy
reference. Understanding control operations
of an unfamiliar car is one of the first steps
recommended in defensive driving.
Owner's manuals usually cover three
main areas:
a description of the location and
operation of all controls
a schedule and descriptions of
maintenance required, both by the
owner and by a mechanic

become much bigger in part due to many safety warnings most likely
designed to avoid product liability lawsuits, as well as from more
complicated audio and navigational systems, which often have their own
manual.
If owners lose their car manual, they can either order a replacement
from a dealer, pick up a used one secondhand, or download a PDF version
of the manual online.

Identification of Motor Vehicle Symbols Used in Car Manuals
Learning Objective:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, you must be able to:
i. identify motor vehicle symbols used in the owner’s manual
The Meanings Behind Motor Vehicle Symbols On The Car's Dashboard
When something goes wrong with your car or if a feature you
should know about gets activated, a signal funnels through the
electrical system and into the dashboard. This illuminates a
hieroglyphic, and these cover a wide range of issues—some of which
may be serious.
Image source: https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=http 2
Each vehicle dashboard may be different and the symbols may
have altered designs or indicate slightly different things, so be sure to
consult the owner’s manual. Some of these lights could portend a
serious malfunction. Don't ignore them. When in doubt, have a
professional check it out.

VEHICLE OWNER’S AND DRIVER’S
MANUAL
According to www.autosimple.com, the
vehicle owner’s and driver’s manual is
an instructional booklet that is specific
to a vehicle.
It includes important information
to make you a better driver and car
owner, including maintenance and
troubleshooting advice.
Contents of the Car Owner’s and Driver’s
Manual
ii. Setup Instructions https://www.isuzu.co.uk/owners/owners-manuals/isuzu-d-max-2017
While some cars still don’t require any setup, many newer
models have technological features that require some user input. These
include bluetooth, keyless entry, and voice recognition.
The owner’s manual can make this process easy. In order to
take full advantage of the vehicle’s available options, learn all of the setup
instructions before driving the new car.
iii. Device Instructions
In addition to setup instructions, the manual contains
instructions for how to use all of the features and devices in the vehicle.
Avoid the frustration that comes with learning a new system by reading
the owner’s manual before starting to use anything in or around the car.

function in the vehicle does,
consult the owner’s manual
first. This includes how to
dim, brighten, or modify the
headlights.
The vehicle may
also have a “battery run-
down” feature that
automatically shuts down
lamps and lights to
conserve battery life.
iv. Maintenance Schedule
Taking preventative care for the vehicle is money well spent.
When you catch problems early on, they are cheaper and easier to fix.
The vehicle will last longer, have higher resale value and better
performance.
In addition to saving money on repairs, a well-maintained car is
also more efficient, saving you on fuel costs as well. Additionally, any
warranty claims normally request a complete service record.
Look in the car’s service manual to learn the proper
maintenance schedule (oil changes, for instance), how often you need to
service the car, and the expected lifespan for the car’s replaceable parts.
Save money on unnecessary maintenance and oil changes by
following the recommendations in the vehicle owner’s manual. For
example, many people waste time and money by following a dealership or
mechanic’s advice on when to change the oil, or other vehicle fluids. For
the most accurate fluid change schedule, always refer to your vehicle’s
service manual.
v. How to Check and Refill Fluids
If you want to know where the windshield wiper fluid, coolant,
or motor oil is located, save yourself time and trouble by checking the
owner’s manual first. It would also be wise to learn if it’s better to check
the fluid while it’s hot or cold.

vi. Oil Change
Make sure you are filling
up with the proper engine oil and
gas by consulting the owner’s
manual. The “Engine Oil” section
tells how to check the oil level,
what kind of oil and filter to use,
and how long you can go between
oil changes.

vii. Gas Grade
To know what kind of gasoline and the proper octane level the
vehicle should use, always refer to the owner’s manual.
Premium or plus gasoline isn’t automatically superior. Different
types of engines are designed to run on different types of gasoline. Use
the gas grade (octane rating) that is recommended in the “Fuel” section of
the owner’s manual.
viii. Seat Positions and Head Restraints
In order to provide the safest and most comfortable position in a car,
check the owner’s manual for how to adjust seat positions and head
restraints.
Adjusting the head restraints to the proper height will help cushion
the head and spine in the case of an accident, reducing whiplash injuries
and increasing effectiveness.

ix. Dashboard Warning Light
Dashboard warning lights are not the same for all vehicles.
While some lit-up warning signs are nothing to worry about, others can
indicate important messages about the braking system, engine, and fluid
levels.
Image source:

2978000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAIQjRxqFwoTCPCglbi32-oCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAQ
The vehicle owner’s manual will let you know what each
warning light means and whether it is urgent or not. If you see a
dashboard warning light that you do not recognize, look it up in the
vehicle owner’s manual immediately. It could save you from a dangerous
situation and expensive repair bills.
x. How to Change Tires
The vehicle owner’s manual will also provide instructions on
how to remove tire and operate a car jack. Since every car is different,
you want to make sure you are lifting the car up at the proper location.
Always reference the owner’s manual for the correct location to place the
car jack.

Always consult the owner’s manual so you can make the ideal
tire change. You will learn how long you can drive on the spare and how
inflated it should be. While you are replacing the tire, don’t forget to
check the recommended tire pressure for the vehicle.
xi. Ideal Tire Pressure
Instead of using the tire pressure on the sidewall of a tire,
consult the owner’s manual for the proper tire PSI. The PSI printed on
the tire is normally the maximum allowed pressure. Never inflate the tire
over this number. If you overinflate the tires, you risk overheating, a
blowout, or worse.
Purchasing a digital tire gauge and checking the tire pressure
about once every month is recommended. Maintaining proper tire
pressure will enhance driver safety and fuel efficiency.
ALWAYS check the owner’s manual for the proper PSI level for
the tires. You can also find the appropriate tire pressure rating on the
placard on the inside of the driver-side door, glove box, or fuel door.
xii. Warranty Information
Check the owner’s manual to see what service and parts are
covered by warranty. Additionally, you will discover all of the things that
you should not do that may void any existing warranties.
xiii. How to Clean the Vehicle’s Inside and Outside
The owner’s manual will tell you the best cleaning methods for
the leather or fabric upholstery and outdoor paint, mirrors, and accents.
xiv. Tips & Tricks
In addition to some specific driving tips for the vehicle’s model,
you will also discover valuable tips and tricks for extending the lifespan
of your vehicle, increasing gas mileage, and maximizing passenger safety.
Learn how to maneuver the new vehicle and follow the instructions no
matter how seasoned you are as a driver.
In addition to tips for safe driving, little-known features can be
uncovered. For instance, some cars have the ability to lower the windows
a little bit on hot, summer days. Every model is different. Get
acquainted; learn the vehicle’s quirks and oddities.

Until the last decade or two
of the twentieth century it was
common for an owner's manual to
include detailed repair information,
such as a circuit diagram; however
as products became more complex
this information was gradually
relegated to specialized service
manuals, or dispensed with
entirely, as devices became too
inexpensive to be economically
repaired.
Owner's manuals for simpler https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=http 4
devices are often multilingual so
that the same boxed product can
be sold in many different markets.
Sometimes the same manual is
shipped with a range of related
products so the manual will
contain a number of sections that
apply only to some particular
model in the product range.
With the increasing complexity of modern devices, many owner's
manuals have become so large that a separate quick start guide is provided.
Some owner's manuals for computer equipment are supplied on CD-ROM to
cut down on manufacturing costs, since the owner is assumed to have a
computer able to read the CD-ROM. Another trend is to supply instructional
video material with the product, such as a videotape or DVD, along with the
owner's manual.
Many businesses offer PDF copies of manuals that can be accessed or
downloaded free of charge from their websites.

Cleaning old books and their aging paper can present a conundrum.
There are many ways to clean books and ephemera, but the more effective
the cleaner, the more abrasive it may be, and the greater the risk that
cleaning will cause damage. Weigh the need for cleaning against the stability
of the book and what it’s made of; always test, especially when colors or
fabrics are involved.
The goal of cleaning old
books ought not to be to wipe out
all traces of their past, but to
guarantee their future.
A good rule of thumb is this: https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https% 3A% 2F% 2Fwww.biblio.com% 2Fboo

least-abrasive means possible. And
it should be removed. Depending
on its constituents, dirt can cause
or promote potentially irreparable
deterioration in paper and other
book parts.
Here are some of the cleaners considered indispensable.
A soft cloth:
There’s nothing like a much-laundered tea towel or T-shirt cut up into
small cloths. The ideal fabric is lint-free (so it imparts nothing you need to
remove later) and light-colored (so you can see what you’re removing, which
can be useful as you rate the book’s condition and decide what additional
care it needs).
If you prefer a commercial product, try one of the electrostatic cloths,
such as Swiffer (steer clear of any cloth with scent or other added
substances). The electrostatic cloths not only remove surface
accumulations, but hold them; using these products make it easier to
control where the dirt goes when it leaves the book’s surface. The soft cloth

is the only surefire method of cleaning gold leaf. If a gentle wiping with a soft
cloth doesn’t do the trick, take your gold leaf to a professional.
A small toothbrush:
Use this to ease dirt from such delicate areas as spines, edges,
stamping and embossing. Dedicate a new, soft toothbrush for the task–with
the softest bristles you can find. Keep your used toothbrushes, if you must,
for scrubbing grout. The toothbrush that touches books must bear no
residue, and we doubt that even repeated washing and meticulous drying
renders a used toothbrush clean.
Art gum eraser:
The classic eradicator is soft and crumbly, an all-purpose necessity. It
works wonders on simple smudges and many more serious blemishes.
Always work in one direction only.
Absorbent Dirt Eraser:
Resembling a small, dry sponge, this is useful on paper of virtually
every type and for countless clean-up tasks. Its size and pliability make it
easy to use.
Document Cleaning Pad:
This porous cloth sack, which fits comfortably in the hand, contains
pulverized eraser that can work small cleaning miracles. It’s long-lasting,
and, like the items above, so inexpensive that it’s no bargain to be without
one.
Absorbent Book Cleaner:
More than dirt and debris respond to this soft and pliable putty. It
also removes from paper the residue of smoke and that awful filmy filth that
can make a book unpleasant to hold or an unsavory place to poke your
nose.
Clean Cover Gel:
It revives old books, restoring appearance and feel.
