(Refer to Engine Mechanical System - "Engine Room Under Cover")
- Remove the oil filler plug (A or B).

- Check the condition of the oil and make sure that it is at the proper level (A).

- Install the oil filler plug (A).
Tightening torque : 58.9 - 78.5 N*m (6.0 - 8.0 kgf*m, 43.4 - 57.8 lb*ft)
Warning
The existing oil filler plug gasket must be replaced with a new one. (Do not reuse it.)
- Install the under cover.
