If the quality is visibly poor, replace the oil.
Oil grade:
API grade SH, Energy − Conserving II multigrade en-
gine oil or ILSAC multigrade engine oil.
Recommended viscosity is as shown in the illustra-
tion.
2. CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL
The oil level should be between the ”L” and ”F” marks on the dip-
stick.
If low, check for leakage and add oil up to ”F” mark.

REPLACEMENT
CAUTION:
Prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil will
result in the removal of natural fats from the skin,
leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addi-
tion, used engine oil contains potentially harmful
contaminants which may cause skin cancer.
Care should be taken, therefore, when changing en-
gine oil to minimize the frequency and length of time
your skin is exposed to used engine oil. Protective
clothing and gloves that cannot be penetrated by oil
should be worn. The skin should be thoroughly
washed with soap and water, or use water−less hand
cleaner, to remove any used engine oil. Do not use
gasoline, thinners, or solvents.
In order to preserve the environment, used oil and
used oil filters must be disposed of only at desig-
nated disposal sites.
