Used motor oil may cause skin cancer if repeatedly left in contact with the skin for
prolonged periods. Although this is unlikely unless you handle used oil on a daily
basis, it is still advisable to thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water as
soon as possible after handling used oil.
Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible with the environment. We
suggest you take it in a sealed container to your local service station or recycling center for
reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash or pour it on the ground.
