ENGINE OIL (CHECK DAILY)
Before checking or refi lling 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, refi ll with the proper oil
(see table) to the upper level.
OIL CAPACITY : 1.55 liter (1.64 qt.)
• When fi lling oil in the engine, keep the
engine level and fi ll 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 fi lls the oil
fi lter. Fill the oil up to the upper mark
of the oil gauge.
• Change oil if it is contaminated.
(See “Maintenance Schedule”)
• Use 4-stroke automotive detergent oil
of API service class SE or higher grade
(SG, SH or SJ is recommended).
• If multi-grade oil is used, oil consumption
tends to increase when the ambient
temperature is high.
