Checking and Filling


— Maintain enough distance when you are re-
moving the oil drain plug. While doing this,
keep your forearm parallel to the ground to
reduce the risk of hot oil dripping down your
arm.
— Drain the oil into a container designed for
this purpose that is large enough to hold the
full amount of oil in your engine.
— Engine oil is poisonous. Always store out of
reach of children.
— Prolonged contact of used engine oil with
the skin may cause skin damage. Always
wash oil off immediately with soap and wa-
ter to protect your skin.

Additives may cause engine damage that is
not covered by your New Vehicle Limited War-
ranty.

you can dispose of the used engine oil cor-
rectly.

rectly. Do not dump it in the yard, in the for-
est, or in open water, river channels, or sew-
ers.

ing it to a used oil collection site or contact
a gas station.
