CHECK ENGINE OIL
(DAILY)
Before checking or refilling engine oil, be
sure the engine is not running and is
located on a stable, level surface.
■ If the oil level is below the lower level
line on the oil gauge, refill with the
proper oil (see table) to the upper
level.
OIL CAPACITY : 52.48 oz. (1.55 liter)
■ When filling oil in the engine, keep
the engine level and fill the oil up to
the upper mark of the oil gauge.
Measure the oil level with the oil
gauge plugged in position.
■ After an oil change, run the engine,
and recheck the oil level. The oil level
may drop a little as the oil fills the oil
filter. Fill the oil up to the upper mark
of the oil gauge.
■ Change oil if it is contaminated.
(See page 14 Maintenance Sched-
ule.)
■ Use class SE (API classification) or
higher grade oil.
■ If multi-grade oil is used, oil
consumption tends to increase when
the ambient temperature is high.
