		| Engine Oil And Filter Replacement | 
	
		| 
			
				| • | Prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil will result in 
				the removal of natural fats from the skin, leading to dryness, irritation 
				and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains potentially 
				harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer.  |  
			
				| • | Exercise caution in order to minimize the length and frequency 
				of contact of your skin to used oil. Wear protective clothing and 
				gloves. Wash your skin thoroughly with soap and water, or use water-less 
				hand cleaner, to remove any used engine oil. Do not use gasoline, 
				thinners, or solvents.  |  
			
				| • | In order to preserve the environment, used oil and used oil filter 
				must be disposed of only at designated disposal sites.  |  | 
	
		| 1. | Drain the engine oil.  
			
				| (1) | Remove the oil filler cap (A).  
				 |  
			
				| (2) | Remove the oil drain plug (A) and drain the oil into a container.
				 
				 |  | 
	
		| 2. | Replace the oil filter.  
			
				| (1) | Remove the oil filter (A) with the SST (09263-02000).  |  
			
				| (2) | Check and clean the oil filter installation surface.  |  
			
				| (3) | Check the part number of the new oil filter is as same as old 
				one.  |  
			
				| (4) | Apply clean engine oil to the gasket of a new oil filter.  |  
			
				| (5) | Lightly screw the oil filter into place, and tighten it until 
				the gasket contacts the seat.  |  
			
				| (6) | Tighten it with the torque below.  
					
						| Tightening torque :  11.8 - 15.7 N·m (1.2 - 1.6 kgf·m, 8.7 - 11.6 lb·ft)
						 |  
				 |  | 
	
		| 3. | Install the oil drain plug with a new gasket.  
			
				| Tightening torque :  34.3 - 44.1 N·m (3.5 - 4.5 kgf·m, 25.3 - 32.5 lb·ft)  |  | 
	
		| 4. | Fill with new engine oil, after removing the engine oil level gauge.
		 
			
				| Capacity  Total : 3.55 L (0.94 U.S.gal., 3.75 U.S.qt., 3.12 lmp.qt.)
				 Oil pan : 3.3 L (0.87 U.S.gal., 3.48 U.S.qt., 2.90 lmp.qt.)
				 Drain and refill including oil filter : 3.5 L (0.92 U.S.gal., 
				3.70 U.S.qt., 3.08 lmp.qt.)  |  | 
	
		| 5. | Install the oil filler cap.  | 
	
		| 6. | Start engine and check for oil leaks.  | 
	
		| 7. | Recheck the engine oil level.  | 
	
		| 8. | To reset the service interval to the recommended mileage, refer to the 
		service mode section in the owner's manual for procedure (if applicable).
		 | 
Engine Oil Inspection
	
		| 1. | Check the engine oil quality.  Check for oil deterioration, entry of water, discoloring of thinning.
		 If the quality is visibly poor, replace the oil.  | 
	
		| 2. | Check the engine oil level.  After warming up the engine for five minutes, stop the engine and check 
		the oil level. The level should be between the "L" and "F" marks on the 
		dipstick.  If low, check for oil leakage and add oil up to the "F" mark on the dipstick.
