CAUTION

Always be sure to clean the area
around any filler plug, drain plug, or
dipstick before checking or drain-
ing any lubricant. This is especially
important in dusty or sandy areas
and when the vehicle is used on
unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug
and dipstick areas will prevent dirt
and grit from entering the engine
and other mechanisms that could
be damaged.

Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an
effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil
flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils
can provide better fuel economy and cold
weather performance, however, higher
viscosity engine oils are required for sat-
isfactory lubrication in hot weather. Using
oils of any viscosity other than those rec-
ommended could result in engine dam-
age.
When choosing an oil, consider the
range of temperature your vehicle will be
operated in before the next oil change.
Proceed to select the recommended oil
viscosity from the chart.

: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity
grade SAE 0W-40, 5W-30, 5W-40 (API Service SL, SM / ACEA A5 or above).
: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity
grade SAE 5W-20,5W-30 (API SL, SM / ILSAC GF-3 or above). However, if the
engine oil is not available in your country, select the proper engine oil using the
engine oil viscosity chart.
: In Middle East, do not use the engine oil of viscosity grade SAE 5W-20.
: If your vehicle follows 30,000 km/ 1 year interval in normal maintenance schedule,
use the engine oil of viscosity grade, SAE 5W-30 or SAE 0W-30.
