To Check the Oil Level
Before checking the oil, warm up the
engine to the normal operating tempera-
ture and be sure it is parked on level
ground. Turn the engine off.
Wait five minutes, then remove the dip-
stick, wipe it off, fully reinsert the dipstick
and withdraw it again. Then note the
highest level the oil has reached on the
dipstick. It should be between the upper
("F") and lower ("L") range.
OMC059003
NOTE:
For better fuel economy, it is recom-
mended to use the engine oil of a vis-
cosity grade SAE 5W-20 (API Service
SM / ILSAC GF-4). However, if the en-
gine oil is not available in your country,
select the proper engine oil using the
engine oil viscosity chart.
!
WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch the radia-
tor hose when checking the engine oil
as it may be hot enough to burn you.
