Engine Oil
Checking Engine Oil
It is a good idea to check the engine oil level at eachfuel fill. In order to get an accurate reading, the oil mustbe warm and the vehicle must be on level ground.
The engine oil dipstick handle is a yellow loop. SeeEngine Compartment Overviewon page 7!16for thelocation of the engine oil dipstick.
1. Turn off the engine and give the oil several minutesto drain back into the oil pan. If this is not done, theoil dipstick might not show the actual level.
2. Pull out the dipstick and clean it with a paper towelor cloth, then push it back in all the way. Remove itagain, keeping the tip down, and check the level.

When to Add Engine Oil
If the oil is below the cross-hatched area at the tipof the dipstick, add at least one quart/liter of therecommended oil. This section explains what kindof oil to use. For engine oil crankcase capacity, seeCapacities and Specifications on page 7!115.
Notice:Do not add too much oil. If the enginehas so much oil that the oil level gets abovethe cross-hatched area that shows the properoperating range, the engine could be damaged.
SeeEngine CompartmentOverviewon page 7!16for the location of theengine oil fill cap.
Add enough oil to put the level somewhere in the properoperating range. Push the dipstick all the way back inwhen through.
