Checking the engine oil level
1.Be sure the vehicle is on level
ground.
2.Start the engine and allow it to
reach normal operating tempera-
ture.3.Turn the engine off and wait for a
few minutes (about 5 minutes) for
the oil to return to the oil pan.
4.Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean,
and reinsert it fully.
5.Pull the dipstick out again and
check the level. The level should be
between F (Full) and L (Low). Do not spill engine oil, when
adding or changing engine oil. If
you drop the engine oil on the
engine room, wipe it off immedi-
ately.
When you wipe the oil level gauge,
you should wipe it with a clean
cloth. When mixed with debris, it
can cause engine damage.
- Diesel Engine
Overfilling the diesel engine oil
may cause severe dieseling due to
the churning effect. It may damage
the diesel engine with the abrupt
engine speed incensement, com-
bustion noise, and white smoke
emission.
