the engine is standing on a at surface and is 
not running.
4.1.1 Remove the oil ller cap and use a clean 
cloth to clean the oil dipstick.
4.1.2 Insert the dipstick into the oil ller neck 
without turning.
4.1.3 When the oil level is below the lower limit 
on the oil dipstick, use the recommended oil to 
rell up to the upper limit.
4.1.4 Replace the oil ller cap.
4.2 FUEL LEVEL
4.2.1 Remove the fuel tank cap.
4.2.2 Fill the fuel tank up to the lter collar.
4.2.3 Recheck the fuel level and rell, if 
necessary.
4.2.4 Fasten the fuel tank cap until it is secured.
4.3 AIR FILTE
4.3.1 Detach the clip, and remove the air lter 
housing.
4.3.2 Check the lter to make sure that it is clean
