for the V6 engine, add at least one quart/liter of the
recommended oil. This section explains what kind of oil to
use. For engine oil crankcase capacity, seeCapacities
and Specifications on page 5-118.Notice:Do not add too much oil. If the engine has so
much oil that the oil level gets above the upper mark
that shows the proper operating range, the engine
could be damaged.
