Checking the oil level
The oil level must be checked at least every 5,000 km (3,000 miles) or more frequently if needed. Be
sure the oil level is maintained between the upper and lower marks on the dip-stick. Low oil level can
cause internal damage to the engine and over-filling can result in high oil consumption. The distance
between the dipstick marks represents approx. 1 US qt (1 liter) of oil.
Draining the oil
Drain the oil after driving while it is still hot.
