Engine Oil

Checking Engine Oil
It's a good idea to check your engine oil every time you
get fuel. In order to get an accurate reading, the oil
must be warm and the vehicle must be on level ground.
Turn off the engine and give the oil several minutes to
drain back into the oil pan. If you don't, the oil
dipstick might not show the actual level.
The engine oil dipstick is
located in the front of the
engine compartment.
The top of the dipstick is a
round, yellow loop. See
Engine Compartment
Overview on page 5-12 for
more information on
location.
