IMPORTANT: When operating in conditions

Evinrude/Johnson XD100 Oil
Evinrude/Johnson XD100 oil is preferred
for your Evinrude E-TEC outboard. This
synthetic formula oil provides uncompro-
mised lubrication and superior performance,
even in extreme conditions—especially in
cold temperatures down to 0°F (-17°C).
Filling the Oil Tank
Release the port and starboard engine cover
latches by turning each handle downward.
If requested, an authorized dealer can pro-
gram your Evinrude E-TEC outboard EMM
for the exclusive use of Evinrude/Johnson
XD100. Only an authorized Evinrude deal-
er can program your outboard for this op-
tional benefit.
Oil consumption is reduced if the outboard is
programmed for exclusive use of Evinrude/
Johnson XD100 as compared to using a con-
ventional oil.
IMPORTANT: If your EMM has been pro-
grammed for Evinrude/Johnson XD100,
DO NOT use any other oil unless in an emer-
gency. If Evinrude/Johnson XD100 is tempo-
rarily unavailable, a one-time-only use of an
oil that meets NMMA TC-W3 certification
standards is allowed. If you discontinue using
Evinrude/Johnson XD100, you MUST first re-
turn to your Dealer to have the EMM repro-
grammed back to the original factory setting.
Pull up on the tilt handle to release the engine
cover seal on the engine cover.
