Engine Oil
Checking Engine Oil
It is a good idea to check the engine oil every time you
get fuel. In order to get an accurate reading, the oil
must be warm and the vehicle must be on level ground.
The engine oil dipstick handle is a yellow loop.
SeeEngine Compartment Overview on page 5-12
for the location of the engine oil dipstick.
1. Turn off the engine and give the oil several minutes
to drain back into the oil pan. If you do not do this,
the oil dipstick might not show the actual level.
2. Pull out the dipstick and clean it with a paper towel
or cloth, then push it back in all the way. Remove it
again, keeping the tip down, and check the level.

Engine Air Cleaner/Filter
Notice:If you spray water into the engine air
cleaner/lter intake and water enters the engine air
cleaner/lter housing, as shown in the illustration,
you could damage your vehicle’s engine. The repairs
would not be covered by your warranty. Do not
spray water into the engine air cleaner/lter intake
and/or housing.SeeEngine Compartment
Overview on page 5-12
for the location of the
engine air cleaner/lter and
the air lter restriction
indicator, if equipped.
When to Inspect the Engine
Air Cleaner/Filter
If your vehicle is equipped with an air lter restriction
indicator, it lets you know when the engine air cleaner/
lter needs to be replaced. On vehicles with a restriction
indicator, you should inspect the air lter restriction
indicator at every oil change and replace the engine air
cleaner/lter when the indicator tells you to.
On vehicles without an air lter restriction indicator, you
should inspect the air cleaner/lter at every oil change
and replace it at the rst oil change after 100,000 miles
(160 000 km). SeeScheduled Maintenance on page 6-4
for more information.
