Brand Oils
Evinrude/Johnson
outboard oils are formulat-
ed to give best engine performance while
controlling piston and combustion chamber
deposits, providing superior lubrication, and
ensuring maximum spark plug life.
The following outboard oils are recommend-
ed for use in your
Evinrude E-TEC
outboard:
•
Evinrude/Johnson XD100
;
•
Evinrude/Johnson XD50
; or
•
Evinrude/Johnson XD30
.
Evinrude/Johnson XD100
Oil
Evinrude/Johnson XD100
oil is preferred
for your
Evinrude E-TEC
outboard.
This
synthetic formula oil provides uncompro-
mised lubrication and superior performance,
even in extreme conditions—especially in
cold temperatures down to 0°F (-17°C).
If requested, an authorized dealer can pro-
gram your
Evinrude E-TEC
outboard
EMM
for the exclusive use of
Evinrude/Johnson
XD100
.
Only an authorized
Evinrude
deal-
er can program your outboard for this op-
tional benefit.
Oil consumption is reduced if the outboard is
programmed for exclusive use of
Evinrude/
Johnson
XD100
as compared to using a con-
ventional oil.
IMPORTANT: If your
EMM
has been pro-
grammed for
Evinrude/Johnson
XD100
,
DO NOT
use any other oil unless in an emer-
gency. If
Evinrude/Johnson
XD100
is tempo-
rarily unavailable, a
one-time-only use
of an
oil that meets NMMA TC-W3 certification
standards is allowed. If you discontinue using
Evinrude/Johnson
XD100
, you MUST first re-
turn to your Dealer to have the
EMM
repro-
grammed back to the original factory setting.
Other Oils
If
Evinrude/Johnson
brand oils are not avail-
able, you must use an oil that meets NMMA
TC-W3 certification standards.
IMPORTANT:
Failure to follow oil specifica-
tions could void the engine warranty if a lubri-
cation-related failure occurs.
If the “LOW OIL” warning light illuminates,
you have approximately five hours of normal
operation before running out of oil. Refill the
oil tank at next convenient opportunity.
Always “top off” your oil tank prior to pro-
longed usage or long trips.
New outboards are programmed to use addi-
tional oil during the first two hours of opera-
tion above 2000 RPM.
IMPORTANT:
When operating in conditions
under 32°F (0°C),
Evinrude/Johnson XD100
oil must be used.
