Engine Oil

Park the vehicle on level ground, and wait approximately three minutes after
turning off the vehicle before you check the oil.
Checking the Oil
1. Open the hood (see page 119). Remove the
dipstick (orange loop).
2. Wipe the dipstick with a clean cloth or paper
towel.
3. Insert the dipstick all the way back into its hole.
4. Remove the dipstick again, and check the level. It
should be between the upper and lower marks.
Add oil if necessary.
