CAUTION
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.
When choosing  an oil,  consider the
range  of  temperature   your  vehicle
will be operated in before the next oil
change. Proceed  to  select  the  rec-
ommended   oil  viscosity   from   the
chart.
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

roads.  Cleaning   the  plug  and
dipstick  areas  will prevent  dirt
and    grit   from    entering    the
engine  and  other  mechanisms
that could be damaged.
