Engine Oil
LUBRICATION
3. Engine Oil
A: INSPECTION
CAUTION:
If the engine oil is spilt over exhaust pipe or the
under cover, wipe it off with cloth to avoid emit-
ting smoke or causing a fire.
1) Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2) Remove the oil level gauge and wipe away the
oil.
3) Reinsert the oil level gauge all the way. Be sure
that the oil level gauge is correctly inserted and
properly orientated.
4) Pull out the oil level gauge again, and check the
oil level. If the engine oil level is below “L” line,
make sure that there is no oil leakage from the en-
gine, then add oil to raise the level up to the “F” line.
5) Start the engine, and spread the oil in engine
room.
6) After turning off the engine, wait a few minutes
for the oil to return to the oil pan before checking
the level.
NOTE:
• Just after driving or while the engine is warm, en-
gine oil level shows in the range between the F line
and the notch mark. This is caused by thermal ex-
pansion of engine oil.
• To prevent overfilling of engine oil, do not add oil
above “F” line when the engine is cold.
• As the oil level gauge is used for daily mainte-
nance, “F” line and “L” line is set assuming that the
engine is cold.
B: REPLACEMENT
CAUTION:
If the engine oil is spilt over exhaust pipe or the
under cover, wipe it off with cloth to avoid emit-
ting smoke or causing a fire.
1) Set the vehicle on a lift.
2) Open the engine oil filler cap for quick draining of
engine oil.
3) Lift up the vehicle.
4) Drain engine oil by loosening the engine oil drain
plug.
NOTE:
Prepare the container for draining of engine oil.
