addition, change the oil and the oil filter cartridge at
the intervals specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
To check the engine oil level
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Remove the console. (See pages 8-21–8-23
for console removal and installation proce-
dures.)
3. Check the engine oil level on a cold engine. If
the engine was started before checking the
oil level, be sure to warm up the engine suffi-
ciently, and then wait at least ten minutes un-
til the oil settles for an accurate reading.
4. Remove the dipstick, and then wipe it off with
a clean rag.

mended type to raise it to the correct level.
