ENGINE OIL REPLACEMENT [SKYACTIV-G 2.0]

WARNING:

  • Hot engines and engine oil can cause severe burns. Turn off the engine and wait until it and the engine oil have cooled.

  • A vehicle that is lifted but not securely supported on safety stands is dangerous. It can slip or fall, causing death or serious injury. Never work around or under a lifted vehicle if it is not securely supported on safety stands.

  • Continuous exposure to USED engine oil has caused skin cancer in laboratory mice. Protect your skin by washing with soap and water immediately after working with engine oil.

CAUTION:

  • If engine oil is spilled on the exhaust system, wipe it off completely. If you fail to wipe the spilled engine oil, it will produce fumes because of the heat.
