Tightening torques: Engine oil drain bolt (crankcase): 30 Nm (3.0 m·kgf, 22 ft·lbf) Engine oil drain bolt (oil tank): 16 Nm (1.6 m·kgf, 11 ft·lbf) 11. Add 1.5 L (1.59 US qt, 1.32 Imp.qt) of the recommended engine oil to the oil tank, and then install and tighten the oil filler cap. 12. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it off. 13. Add sufficient oil of the recommended type to raise it to the "H" level mark on the dipstick. (See above for checking procedures.) NOTICE: When adding the engine oil, be careful not to fill above the "H" level mark on the dipstick. Use only the recommended oil. (See page 81.) Make sure that no foreign material enters the engine oil tank. [ECS00462] Recommended engine oil: See page 81. Oil quantity: With oil filter cartridge replacement: 2.6 L (2.78 US qt, 2.31 Imp.qt) Without oil filter cartridge replacement: 2.4 L (2.59 US qt, 2.16 Imp.qt) Total amount: 3.0 L (3.17 US qt, 2.64 Imp.qt) 14.
