OIL AND OIL FILTER REPLACEMENT

CAUTION:


  • Prolonged and repeated contact with engine oil will result in the removal of natural oils from the skin, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer.

  • Wear protective clothing and gloves. Avoid contact with used oil. If contact occurs, wash your skin thoroughly with soap or waterless hand cleaner. Never use gasoline, thinners, or solvents to wash the skin.

  • In order to protect the environment, dispose of used oil and used oil filters at designated disposal sites only.

  4. ADD ENGINE OIL


    1. Add new oil.

      Standard Oil Grade
      Oil Grade Oil Viscosity (SAE)
      API grade SL "Energy-Conserving", SM "Energy-Conserving", SN "Resource-Conserving" or ILSAC multigrade engine oil

      • 0W-20


      • 5W-20


      • 5W-30


      • 10W-30
      API grade SL, SM or SN multigrade engine oil

      • 15W-40


      • 20W-50
      Standard Capacity
      Item Specified Condition
      Drain and refill (with oil filter change) 4.4 liters (4.6 US qts, 3.9 Imp. qts)
      Drain and refill (without oil filter change) 4.0 liters (4.2 US qts, 3.5 Imp. qts)
      Dry fill 5.3 liters (5.6 US qts, 4.7 Imp. qts)

    2. Install the oil filler cap.

  5. INSPECT FOR OIL LEAK

  6. INSPECT ENGINE OIL LEVEL


    1. Warm up and stop the engine, and then wait 5 minutes.

    2. Check that the oil level is between the low level mark and full level mark on the engine oil level dipstick.

      If the level is low, check for leakage and add oil up to the full level mark.

      Note

      Do not fill the engine with oil to above the full level mark.
