Checking the engine oil level
1. Follow all of the oil manufacturer’s
precautions.
2. Be sure the vehicle is on level
ground.
3. Start the engine and allow it to reach
normal operating temperature.
4. Turn the engine off and wait for a
few minutes (about 5 minutes) for
the oil to return to the oil pan.
5. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean,
and re-insert it fully.
6. Pull the dipstick out again and
check the level. The level should
be between F (Full) and L (Low).
7. If it is near or at L, add enough oil
to bring the level to F.
Use only the specified engine oil.
(Refer to “Recommended lubricants
and capacities” in chapter 8.)
