To replace the engine oil and the oil
filter
If the engine is cold, start the engine for 1–2 minutes
before you drain the engine oil. This makes the engine
oil warm and easier to drain.
WARNING: Do not operate the engine for
more than 1–2 minutes before you drain the
engine oil. The engine oil becomes very hot
and can cause burn injuries. Let the engine
become cool before you drain the engine oil.
WARNING: If you spill engine oil on your
body, clean with soap and water.
