9.2.3 To replace the engine oil and oil filter

before you drain the engine oil. This makes the engine
oil warm and easier to drain.

than 1–2 minutes before you drain the engine
oil. The engine oil becomes very hot and can
cause burn injuries. Let the engine become cool
before you drain the engine oil.
WARNING: If you spill engine oil on your body,
clean with soap and water.
1. Put a container below the oil drain plug.
2. Remove the drain plug.
a) If the product has an oil drain plug that can be
opened by hand, open the plastic cap on the end
of the oil drain plug.
b) Attach a plastic hose to the end of the oil drain
plug to prevent spill.
