ENGINE OIL REPLACEMENT [LF]
1. Position the vehicle on level ground.
2. Remove the oil filler cap.
3. Remove the oil pan drain plug.
4. Drain the engine oil into a container.
5. Install the oil pan drain plug with a new washer.
WARNING:
Hot engine and engine oil can cause severe burns. Turn off the
engine and wait until it and the engine oil have cooled.
A vehicle that is lifted but not securely supported on safety stands is
dangerous. It can slip or fall, causing death or serious injury. Never
work around or under a lifted vehicle if it is not securely supported
on safety stands.
Continuous exposure to USED engine oil has caused skin cancer in
laboratory mice. Protect your skin by washing with soap and water
immediately after working with engine oil.
CAUTION:
In case you spill engine oil on the exhaust system, wipe it off
completely. If you fail to wipe the spilled engine oil, it will produce
fumes because of the heat.
