Check Oil Level
Under engine working temperature, shut down
the engine, and check oil level with engine oil
dipstick.
1. To ensure accuracy, park the vehicle on a
flat surface, and wait for several minutes
after the engine is shut down to allow oil to
gather at the bottom of the engine.
2. Pull out the engine oil dipstick, and put its
end on a cloth and wipe it clean.
3. Insert the engine oil dipstick as close to the
bottom as possible.
When the oil level falls within the correct range,
install the oil filler cap and tighten it manually.
