ENGINE OIL

Keep your engine properly lubricated by
keeping the engine oil at the proper level.
It is normal for an engine to consume
some engine oil.
Check the oil level at regular intervals.
If the engine oil pressure warning lamp
( ) on the instrument panel comes on,
you need to check your engine oil level
right away.
CHECKING ENGINE OIL LEVEL
1. Park vehicle on level ground.
2. After stopping engine, wait a few min-
utes to allow oil to drain back into oil
pan. If engine is cold, oil will take longer
to drain into the pan.
3. Pull out the dipstick and wipe it clean.
4. Re-insert dipstick completely.
5. Pull the dipstick out again.
6. Check the oil on the dipstick to make
sure it is not contaminated.
7. Check oil level, as shown on the dip-
stick. Oil should be between MIN and
MAX.
