NOTICE:
Damage to your engine from neglected oil
problems can be costly and is not covered by
your warranty.
LOW
OIL
Your vehicle is equipped
with an oil level monitoring
system. When you start
your engine, the warning
light will come on briefly. If
the light doesn't come on,
have it repaired.
If the light stays on after starting your engine, your
engine oil level may be too low.
You may need to add
oil. See "Engine Oil" in the Index.
NOTICE:
The oil level monitoring system only checks the
oil level when you are starting your engine. It
does not keep monitoring the
level
once your
engine is running. Also, the oil level check only
works when the engine has been turned off long
enough for the oil to drain back into the oil pan.
