LOWER LIMIT
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage.
The Oil Alert@ system (applicable engine types) will automatically stop
the engine before the oil level falls below safe limit. However, to avoid
the inconvenience of an unexpected shutdown, always check the
engine oil level before startup.
