Recommended Lubricants

Evinrude/Johnson XD100, XD50, or XD30 out-
board oils are recommended for use in Evinrude
E-TEC outboards. If these oils are not available,
you must use a TC-W3 certified oil.
Evinrude/Johnson XD100 outboard oil is highly
recommended for all conditions and applications.
Engine Lubricant Below 32°F (0°C)
If the outboard will be operated in temperatures
below freezing (32°F, 0°C), use Evinrude/Johnson
XD100.
IMPORTANT:
For new outboards, test low oil
warning before filling oil tank.
Turn key switch to ON. The engine monitor warn-
ing display should show "LOW OIL."
Add enough oil to raise level to at least one-quar-
ter capacity.
The "LOW OIL" warning should not display.
NOTICE
Failure to follow these recommen-
dations could void the outboard warranty if a
lubrication-related failure occurs.
