When changing from mineral to
synthetic oil (or the other way
around), you will need to do an
extra rinse.
After doing the complete change
procedure to synthetic oil, run the
unit for a few minutes to allow good
and complete circulation of the
synthetic oil. Then drain the
synthetic oil again and fill again
with new synthetic oil. To set correct
oil levels, proceed as in normal
instruction.
