2. Pull out the dipstick and wipe itwith a clean paper towel or cloth,
then push it back in all the way.
Remove it again, keeping the tip
down, and check the level.
When to Add Engine Oil
It should be between the H (High)
and L (Low) marks. This is the
normal operating oil level range.
If the oil level is below the L (Low)
mark, remove the oil filler cap and
pour recommended oil through the
opening. See Engine Compartment
Overview on page 10-7 for the
location of the engine oil fill cap. Add some of the recommended oil
and then recheck the level. See
“Selecting the Right Engine Oil”
in
this section for an explanation of
what kind of oil to use. For engine
oil crankcase capacity, see
Capacities and Specifications on
page 12-2. Add enough oil to put
the level somewhere in the proper
operating range. Do not overfill.
Push the dipstick all the way back in
when through.
{Caution
Do not add too much oil. Oil
levels above or below the
acceptable operating range
shown on the dipstick are harmful
to the engine. If you find that you
have an oil level above the
operating range, i.e., the engine
has so much oil that the oil level
gets above the cross-hatched
area that shows the proper
operating range, the engine could

be damaged. You should drain
out the excess oil or limit driving
of the vehicle and seek a service
professional to remove the
excess amount of oil.
Selecting the Right Engine Oil

depends on both the proper oil
specification and viscosity grade.
SeeRecommended Fluids and
Lubricants on page 11-11.

meet the dexos1™ specification.
Engine oils that have been

:The
service description indicates the
load index and speed rating of a
tire. If two numbers are given as
in the example, 120/116, then
this represents the load index for
single versus dual wheel usage
(single/dual). The speed rating is
the maximum speed a tire is
certified to carry a load. This
does not apply to Goodyear
LT225/75R16 G949 RSA and
Goodyear LT225/75R16 G933
RSD commercial truck tires; see
the dual tire and single tire
maximum load and load range
letter designations on the tire
sidewall.

:A pneumatic tire
in which the plies are laid at
alternate angles less than
90 degrees to the centerline of
the tread.
Cold Tire Pressure
:The
amount of air pressure in a tire,
measured in kPa (kilopascal)
or psi (pounds per square inch)
before a tire has built up heat
from driving. See Tire Pressure
on page 10-35.
