To Replace The Engine Oil; One-Touch Type - Isuzu 4LE2 Owner's Manual

WARNING
• When adding oil, be careful not to spill any, but keep a workshop rag handy
just in case there are any spills.
If any oil should spill onto the engine, carefully wipe it away as it may cause a
fire.
• Do not leave flammable items such as a cloth or cotton work gloves in the
engine room. Such items may trigger a fire. Also, do not leave any of the tools.
• When replacing the engine oil after engine operation, the oil temperature is
high. Be careful not to get burned while replacing it.
ADVICE
• When replacing the engine oil, also replace the engine oil filter at the same
time.
• Do not perform abrupt engine idling, which may cause an engine failure.
• When the oil is added as much as exceeding the "FULL" position, this may
cause an engine malfunction. Wait for 10 - 20 minutes after the oil is replaced,
and make sure to check the oil level using the oil dipstick.
• Disposal and treatment of the drained oil must be conducted in accordance
with the specified procedure.
