1 Oil filter replacement
Replacement intervals
CAUTION
•
Oil filter element must not be cleaned and
reused. Always replace the filter element
with a new one.
•
Replace the oil filter element simultaneously
with engine oil change.
•
When installing filter cases and air plugs, be
careful not to let the O-ring twist and be
damaged.
WARNING
•
Spilt engine oil should be wiped off clean.
Oil remaining on the engine surface could
catch fire.
•
Do not replace the oil filter immediately
after operating the vehicle since the
engine, transmission,
engine oil, and other items will be
extremely hot. If you try to replace the oil
filter immediately after driving the vehicle,
you may be scalded. Give the engine time
to cool before starting the job.
1. Make sure that the parking brake is firmly
applied.
2. Chock the wheels.
3. If the engine is cold, warm it up until the engine
oil temperature reaches approximately 40°C. (It
takes approximately 20 minutes of idling to raise
the engine oil temperature from 0°C to 40°C.)
NOTE:
Be sure to warm up the engine. Unless you warm
up the engine, engine oil may spill out when you
remove the oil filter case.
