It is normal for an engi
ne to use oil. You may
need to add oil between the recommended oilchange intervals. Before starting the engine, check the engine oil level. Refill if necessary. To check the oil level, remove the dipstick, wipe it off, and gently reinsert it all the way.Slowly pull the dipstick straight out and check the oil level by checking the upper sur- face of the dipstick. Th
e oil level must not go
above the line on the dipstick. If the level does not reach the line which shows the minimum amount of oil required, remove the oil filler cap on the cylinder headcover, and fill to within the “Good” range.
 If you drive with the engine hood left open, a warning display appears on the information screen in the multi-information display.
