Engine oil replenishing
ENOW00079-A
Do not add engine oil of brand and grade
other than existing one. In case engine
oil of other brand or grade is added,
drain all oil and ask dealer for treatment.
In case other than engine oil such as
gasoline is put in the oil chamber, empty
the chamber and ask dealer for treat-
ment.
When replenishing engine oil, be careful
not to allow entry of foreign matters
such as dust and water into oil chamber.
Wipe off engine oil well immediately if
spilled and dispose of it in accordance
with local fire prevention and environ-
ment protection regulations.
Do not replenish engine oil over upper
limit. If overfilled, remove oil to upper
limit. If engine oil is over the upper limit,
it can leak potentially leading to engine
damage.
If the oil level is low, or at lowest mark, add
recommended oil to the middle dipstick
mark.
