5) Fill the engine oil through filler pipe up to upper
point on level gauge. Make sure that the vehicle is
placed level when checking oil level. Use engine oil
of proper quality and viscosity, selected in accor-
dance with the table in figure.
Recommended oil:
A PI classification
SJ or SH with the words "Energy Conserving
or Energy conserving 11'; CCMC specification
G4 or G5, A CEA specification A 1, A2 or A3, or
New A PI mark displayed on the container (If it
is impossible to get SJ or SH grade, you may
use SG grade.)

The proper viscosity helps the vehicle to get good
cold and hot starting by reducing viscous friction
and thus increasing cranking speed.
CAUTION:
When replenishing oil, it does not matter if the
oil to be added is a different brand from that in
the engine; however, use oil having the API
classification and SAE viscosity No. designat-
ed by SUBARU.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is used in desert areas with very high
temperatures or for other heavy duty applications,
the following viscosity oils may be used: API classi-
fication: SJ or SH
SAE Viscosity No.: 30, 40, 1 OW-50, 2OW-40, 20W-
50.
6) Close the engine oil filler cap.
7) Start the engine and warm it up for
a
time.
8) After the engine stops, recheck the oil level. If
necessary, add engine oil up to upper level on level
gauge.
