Turn off the engine and give the oil several minutes to
drain back into the oil pan. If you don't, the oil dipstick
might not show the actual level.
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 down, and check the level.When to Add Engine Oil

to add at least one quart of oil. But you must use the
right kind. This part explains what kind of oil to use.

cross
-hatched area that shows the proper
operating range, your engine could be damaged.
