Checking Oil Level
To assure proper engine lubrication, the engine oil must be
maintained at the correct level. Check the oil level at
regular intervals, such as every fuel stop. The best time to
check the engine oil level is about five minutes after a fully
warmed engine is shut OFF.
Checking the oil while the vehicle is on level ground will
improve the accuracy of the oil level readings. Maintain the
oil level between the MIN and MAX markings on the
dipstick. Adding one quart or one liter of oil when the
reading is at the MIN mark will result in a MAX reading on
these engines.
CAUTION!
•Overfilling or underfilling will cause oil aeration, or
loss of oil pressure. This could damage your engine.
• Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral Oil
in the engine or damage may result.
Adding Washer Fluid
The fluid reservoir is located in the front of the engine
compartment. Be sure to check the fluid level in the
reservoir at regular intervals. Fill the reservoir with wind-
shield washer solvent (not radiator antifreeze) and operate
the system for a few seconds to flush out the residual
washer fluid.
