When to Add Engine Oil
If the oil is below the cross-hatched area at the tip of
the dipstick, add at least two quarts/liters of the
recommended oil. This section explains what kind of oil
to use. For engine oil crankcase capacity, see
Capacities and Specifications on page 5-109.
Notice: Do not add too much oil. If the engine has
so much oil that the oil level gets above the
cross-hatched area that shows the proper operating
range, the engine could be damaged.
Be sure to add enough oil to put the level somewhere in
the proper operating range. Push the dipstick all the
way back in when you are through.
Add oil at the engine oil fill
cap in the engine
compartment. Install and
fully tighten the fill cap
when you are through.
