change.
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area
around   any  filler   plug,   drain
plug,  or dipstick  before  check-
ing  or   draining  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  viscosi-
ty engine oils can  provide better fuel
economy and cold  weather perform-
ance,    however,   higher    viscosity
engine oils  are required for satisfac-
tory lubrication in hot  weather. Using
oils of any viscosity other  than those
recommended could result in engine
damage.

: For better fuel economy,  it is recommended to  use the engine oil of  a viscosity grade SAE
(API SM / ILSAC GF-4/ACEA A5). 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.
