Environment and vehicle
Engine oil
- Prevent environment pollution by
furthered replacement of the engine
oil.
- The engine oil color is not the only
criteria for defining its quality and re
-
placement.
- The base of many engine oils is the
crude oil. So conserve the resources
by optimized consumption.
- Be careful about the leakage when
replacing the engine oil. Avoid pouring
the used oil on the soil and through
the water.
