only when the level on the dipstick is below the mini-
mum notch. The total capacity from the minimum notch
to the maximum notch is 1.7 quarts (1.6 liters).
CAUTION!
Overfilling or underfilling the crankcase will cause
oil aeration or loss of oil pressure. This could damage
your engine.
NOTE: It is possible for your oil level to be slightly
higher than a previous check. This would be due to diesel
fuel that may temporarily be in the crankcase due to
operation of the diesel particulate filter regeneration
strategy. This fuel will evaporate out under normal
operation.
Never operate the engine with oil level below the mini-
mum notch or above the upper maximum notch.
