ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTERChecking the engine oil level 1. Be sure the vehicle is on level
ground.
2. Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating tempera-
ture.
3. Turn the engine off and wait for a few minutes (about 5 minutes) for
the oil to return to the oil pan.
4. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean, and re-insert it fully.
5. Pull the dipstick out again and check the level. The level should
be between F and L. If it is near or at L, add enough oil to
bring the level to F.
Do not overfill.
Use only the specified engine oil.
(Refer to “Recommended Lubricants”later in this section.)
Changing the engine oil and
