IMPORTANT: Inspect oil for signs of contamination. Oil contaminated with water will
have a milky color to it; oil contaminated with fuel will smell strongly of fuel. If con-
taminated oil is noticed, have the engine checked by your dealer.

IMPORTANT: Do not overfill. Be sure that the outboard is upright (not tilted) when
checking oil.
Remove the oil fill cap and refill with 15 fl oz. (450 mL) of oil. Reinstall the oil fill cap.
