Checking Engine Oil
It is 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.
The engine oil dipstick handle is a yellow loop. See
Engine Compartment Overview on page 5-12for
the location of the engine oil dipstick.
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.

Engine Air Cleaner/Filter
SeeEngine Compartment
Overview on page 5-12for
the location of the
engine air cleaner/lter and
change indicator (if
equipped).
When to Inspect the Engine Air
Cleaner/Filter
If your vehicle is equipped with a lter change indicator
it will let you know when the lter needs to be
replaced. Inspect the air cleaner/lter restriction indicator
at every oil change and replace the lter when the
indicator tells you to. When the change indicator turns
black or is in the red/orange change zone, change
the lter and reset the indicator. Vehicles without
a change indicator, inspect the air cleaner/lter at every
oil change and replace at the rst oil change after
25,000 miles (40,000 km).
How to Inspect the Engine Air
Cleaner/Filter
To inspect the air cleaner/lter, remove the lter from
the vehicle and lightly shake lter to release loose dust
and dirt. If the lter remains caked with dirt, a new
lter is required.
To remove and reinstall the lter and reset the indicator
(if equipped), do the following:
The engine air cleaner/lter is located near the center of
the engine compartment.
1. Unhook the retainer clips and remove the cover.
