TIPS AND MAINTENANCE
Changing engine oil
The engine oil must be changed at
the intervals given in the Inspection
and Maintenance Plan. For this we
recommend you contact a Technical
Service Centre.
Warning
If you want to change the engine
oil yourself, you must note the fol-
lowing points:
•
Allow the engine to cool down
first to avoid the danger of being
scalded by hot engine oil.
•
Use an appropriate container to
drain off the oil. It should be big
enough to hold the quantity of oil
in your engine.
•
Wear protective glasses for your
eyes.
•
When removing the oil drain
plug with your fingers, keep your
arm horizontal so that the oil
being drained cannot run down
your arm.
•
If your hands come into contact
with engine oil you must wash
them thoroughly afterwards.
•
Old oil must be stored out of
reach of children until it is dis-
posed of in the correct manner.
❀
On no account should oil be
poured down drains or into the
earth.
Because of the disposal problems,
the necessary specialised tools
and specialist knowledge required,
engine oil and filter changing should
preferably be done by a Technical
Service Centre.
Engine oil additives
No additives should be mixed with
the engine oil.
