REPLACEMENT CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
CAUTION:
- Prolonged and repeated contact with engine oil will result in the
removal of natural oils from the skin, leading to dryness, irritation
and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains potentially
harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer.
- Precautions should be taken when replacing engine oil to minimize the
risk of your skin making contact with used engine oil. Protective
clothing and gloves that cannot be penetrated by oil should be worn. The
skin should be washed with soap and water, or use waterless hand
cleaner, to remove any used engine oil thoroughly. Do not use gasoline,
thinners, or solvents.
- In order to protect the environment, used oil and used oil filters must be disposed of at designated disposal sites.
