Changing the Engine Oil and Oil Filter
Engine oil and oil filter are important factors in engine performance and life time. Be
sure to use only the specified oil and oil filters. The engine oil level must be checked
and the oil should be changed regularly according to the Maintenance Schedule.
Changing the Oil
1.
Clean around the oil filler cap so that foreign matter does not enter. Remove the oil
filler cap.
2.
Place a container for receiving the oil beneath the oil pan and the oil filter.
3.
Remove the oil pan drain plug to discharge the oil into the container.
4.
Use the special oil filter wrench to remove the oil filter.
5.
Lightly coat the gasket of the new oil filter with clean engine oil.
6.
Install the new oil filter. After the filter gasket comes in contact with the surface to
which it will be attached, use the special oil filter wrench and tighten it by 1 1/4 (one
and a quarter) turns.
7.
Make sure that the oil pan drain plug is securely tightened (83 Nm torque).
8.
Remove the oil dipstick and carefully fill the specified oil into the oil filler.
9.
Install the oil dipstick and the oil filler cap. Start the engine 5 minutes after refilling
it with the new oil and let it idle. While the engine is idling, check to see if any oil
leaks around the oil filter or drain plug.
10.
Shut off the engine. Then, after waiting at least 30 minutes, check the oil level using
the oil dipstick.
ENGINE COOLANT
To prevent the engine damage due to freezing of the engine coolant, mix the coolant
and water at the ratio of 50/50.
The engine oil tends to thicken with lowering temperatures. Use engine oil with a
viscosity suited to ambient temperature.
The engine coolant must be changed according to the Maintenance Schedule.
•
Check, replenish or change the engine coolant only after the engine
has sufficiently cooled down.
•
Do not loosen or remove the radiator cap, sub-tank cap or reserve tank
cap when the engine coolant is still hot. Hot vapor or boiling water may
burst out and cause a burn. Cover the cap with a cloth, etc. and
remove it gradually after the engine is fully cooled down and the
temperature of the engine coolant becomes low.
•
When removing the radiator cap and reserve tank cap, use a thick
cloth to cover the cap and turn it slowly.
•
Engine coolant is toxic and must not be ingested. If the engine coolant
is mistakenly ingested, immediately vomit it and seek prompt medical
attention.
