CHECK OIL LEVEL
low oil sensing system, your vehicle should be on a level
surface. A false CHECK OIL LEVEL message may
appear if the vehicle is parked on grades. The oil level
sensing system does not check for actual oil level if the
engine has been off for a short period of time, and the oil
level is never sensed while the engine is running. If the
CHECK OIL LEVEL message appears and your vehicle
has been parked on level ground with the engine off for
at least 30 minutes, the oil level should be checked by
observing the oil dipstick. Prior to checking the oil level,
be sure the engine has been off for five minutes and your
vehicle is on a level surface. Then check the dipstick and
add oil if necessary. See "Engine Oil" in the Index.
