Checking the oil 
- Pull out the dipstick and wipe it with a lint-free rag.

until the level is near the mark. 
CAUTION! 
- Not checking the oil level regularly can result in serious engine dama\
ge if the oil level becomes too 
low. 
- Never fill oil above the MAX mark. This could cause an increase in oil\
 consumption. 
- Not checking the oil level regularly can result in serious engine dama\
