ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTERChecking the engine oil level 1. Be sure the vehicle is on levelground.
2. Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating tempera-
ture.
3. Turn the engine off and wait for a few minutes (about 5 minutes) for
the oil to return to the oil pan.
4. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean, and re-insert it fully.
5. Pull the dipstick out again and check the level. The level should
be between F and L.
If it is near or at L, add enough oil to
bring the level to F. Do not overfill.
Use only the specified engine oil.
(Refer to “Recommended Lubricants”later in this section.)

1. Warm the engine up for a few min-
utes and then turn it off. Remove
the oil filler cap.
2. Drain the oil into a suitable con- tainer by removing the oil drain
plug. 3. Remove the engine oil filter with
an oil filter wrench.
✽ ✽NOTICEDo not allow the oil filter gasket to
remain on the oil filter mounting
surface. This will cause oil leakage
and engine damage. Remove the old
gasket completely so that a new gas-
ket may be properly seated. 4. Use a clean rag to clean the oil fil-
ter mounting surface on the
engine.
5. Apply a small amount of engine oil to the new oil filter O-ring seal. 6. Install the oil filter and tighten it.
(Refer to the oil filter caution label
for tightening instructions.)
7. Install a new washer on the drain plug. Don’t use an old washer
repeatedly.
8. Replace the drain plug after the oil has thoroughly drained. Torque the
plug to 26~32 lbft (3.5~4.5 kgm,
35~44 Nm).
9. Refill the engine with new oil to the F mark on the dipstick. Do not
overfill.
10. Reinstall the oil filler cap secure- ly.
11. Start the engine and inspect around the oil filter seal for leaks.
Stop the engine.
12. Check the oil level and fill to the F mark as necessary.
