SELECTION OF ENGINE OILRecommended API classification: SH OR ABOVE
RECOMMENDED SAE VISCOSITY GRADES:
NOTE: For best performance and maximum protection of all types of operation, select only those lubricants which:
1. Satisfy the requirements of the API classification.
2. Have the proper SAE grade number for expected ambient temperature range.
Lubricants which do not have both SAE grade number and an API service classification on the container should not be used.
CHANGING ENGINE OIL
1. Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature.
2. Turn off the engine.
3. Remove the oil filler cap and the drain plug. Drain the engine oil.
4. Tighten the drain plug to the specified torque.
Tightening torque
Oil pan drain plug: 35 - 45 Nm (350 - 450 kg-cm, 25 - 33 ft. lbs.)
NOTE: Whenever tightening the oil drain plug, use a new drain plug gasket.
