Checking the Engine Oil and
Filter
ś We recommend that the engine oil
and filter be changed by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded products
according to the Maintenance
Schedule at the beginning of this
chapter.
ś If the maintenance schedule to
replace engine oil is exceeded,
the engine oil performance may
deteriorate, and the engine condition
may be affected. Therefore, replace
the engine oil according to the
maintenance schedule.
ś To keep the engine in optimal
condition, use the recommended
engine oil and filter. If the
recommended engine oil and filter are
not used replace it according to the
maintenance schedule under severe
usage conditions.
ś The purpose of the maintenance
schedule for engine oil replacement
is to prevent oil deterioration and it is
irrelevant to oil consumption. Check
and refill engine oil regularly.
CAUTION
The engine oil is very hot
immediately after the vehicle has
been driven and can cause burns
during replacement. Replace the
engine oil after the engine oil has
cooled down.
