CHECK ENGINE OIL
Before checking or refilling engine oil, be
sure the engine is not running and is located
on a stable, level surface.
If the oil level is below the lower level
line on the oil gauge, refill with the
proper oil (see table) to the upper
level.
OIL CAPACITY : 1.55 liter
When filling oil in the engine, keep the
engine level and fill the oil up to the
upper mark of the oil gauge. Measure
the oil level with the oil gauge plugged
in position.
After an oil change, run the engine,
and recheck the oil level. The oil level
may drop a little as the oil fills the oil
filter. Fill the oil up to the upper mark of
the oil gauge.
Change oil if it is contaminated.
(See Section 8 Maintenance Schedule.)
Use 4-stroke automotive detergent oil
of API service class SE or higher grade
(SG, SH or SJ is recommended).
If multi-grade oil is used, oil consump-
tion tends to increase when the ambi-
ent temperature is high.
