Oil Level Check
Check the engine oil level with the engine stopped and in a level
position.
1. Remove the oil filler cap.
2. Check the oil level. If it is below the upper limit, fill with the
recommended oil to the upper limit (see page 8).
3. Reinstall the oil filler cap securely.
OIL FILLER CAP
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage.
This type of damage is not covered under the Warranty.
The Oil Alert system (applicable types) will automatically stop the
engine before the oil level falls below the safe limit. However, to
avoid the inconvenience of an unexpected shutdown, always check
the engine oil level before startup.
Oil Change
Drain the used oil when the engine is warm. Warm oil drains
quickly and completely.
1. Place a suitable container below the engine to catch the used oil,
then remove the oil filler cap, oil drain plug and washer.
2. Allow the used oil to drain completely, then reinstall the oil drain
plug and a new washer, and tighten the oil drain plug securely.
3. With the engine in a level position, fill with the recommended oil
(see page 8) to the upper limit.
