ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER
Checking the engine oil level
1. Be sure the vehicle is on level ground.
2. Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating tempera-
ture.
3. Turn the engine off and wait for a few minutes (about 5 minutes) for
the oil to return to the oil pan.
4. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean, and re-insert it fully.
5. Pull the dipstick out again and check the level. The level should
be between F and L. If it is near or at L, add enough oil to
bring the level to F.
Do not overfill.
Use only the specified engine oil.

on a hard, level surface capable
of supporting the full weight of
the vehicle without moving or
deforming. If the support is not
stable, the vehicle could fall andcause serious or fatal injuries.
