Recommended SAE viscosity
number
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.

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.

: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of
a  viscosity grade  SAE  5W-30 (API  Service  SM  / ILSAC  GF-4).
However, if the engine oil is not available in your country, select the
proper engine oil using the engine oil  viscosity chart.
Tau 5.0
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.
