Check the engine oil level with the engine stopped and in a level
position.
1. Remove the filler cap/dipstick [1] and wipe it clean.
2. Insert and remove the dipstick without screwing it into the filler
neck. Check the oil level shown on the dipstick.

the recommended oil. Do not overfill with oil.
4. Screw in the filler cap/dipstick securely.
NOTICE
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage.
Engine Oil Change
Drain the oil while the engine is warm. Warm oil drains quickly and
completely.
