ENGINE OIL CHECK
To check the engine oil level consistently
and accurately, do the following:
1. Make sure the parking brake is on. Make
sure the transmission is in park (P) or
neutral (N). 2. Run the engine until it reaches normal
operating temperature.
3. Make sure that your vehicle is on level ground.
4. Switch the engine off and wait 15 minutes
for the oil to drain into the oil pan.
Checking the engine oil level too soon
after you switch the engine off may result
in an inaccurate reading.
5. Open the hood. See Opening and
Closing the Hood (page 306).
6. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean, lint-free cloth.
See Under Hood
Overview (page 308).
7. Replace the dipstick and remove it again
to check the oil level.
See Engine Oil
Dipstick (page 312).
8. Make sure that the oil level is between the maximum and minimum marks. If the
oil level is at the minimum mark, add oil
immediately.
See Capacities and
Specifications (page 385).
9. If the oil level is correct, replace the dipstick and make sure it is fully seated.
