It’s a good idea to check your engine oil every time you get fuel. In order to
get an accurate reading, the oil must be warm
and the vehicle must be on
level ground.
Turn
off the engine
and give the oil a
few
rninutes to drain back
into the
oil pan. If you
don’t, the oil dipstick
might not show the
actual level.
To Check Engine Oil
Pull out the dipstick and clean it with a paper towel or cloth, then push it
back in all the way. Remove it again, keeping the tip lower.
When to Add Oil
If the oil is at or below the ADD line, then you’ll need to add some oil. But
you must use the right kind.
This section explains what kind of oil to use.
For crankcase capacity, see “Capacities and Specifications” in the Index.
