OIL SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Evinrude/Johnson XD100, XD50, or XD30 outboard oils are recommended for use in Evinrude E-TEC outboards. If these oils are not available, you must use a TC-W3 certified oil.
Evinrude/Johnson XD100 outboard oil is highly recommended for all conditions and applications.
Engine Lubricant Below 32°F (0°C)
If the outboard will be operated in temperatures below freezing (32°F, 0°C), use Evinrude/Johnson XD100.
IMPORTANT: For new outboards, test low oil warning before filling oil tank.
Turn key switch to ON. The engine monitor warning display should show “LOW OIL.”
Add enough oil to raise level to at least one-quarter capacity.
The “LOW OIL” warning should not display
Failure to follow these recommendations could void the outboard warranty if a lubrication-related failure occurs.
