NOTE
. Just after driving or while the engine
is warm, the engine oil level reading
may be in a range between the full level
and the notch mark (turbo models).
This is caused by thermal expansion of
the engine oil.
. To prevent overfilling the engine oil,
do not add any additional oil above the
full level when the engine is cold.
& Changing the oil and oil filter
CAUTION
. If you change your own oil, be
sure to drain all the oil from the
filter before disposal.
. Do not dispose of used engine oil
by placing it in the trash, or by
pouring it onto the ground, into
sewers, or into any body of water.
Check with your local govern-
ment office for the proper dis-
posal options available to you.
Change the oil and oil filter according to
the maintenance schedule in the “War-
ranty and Maintenance Booklet”.
