Park the vehicle on level ground. After warming up the engine
and turning it off, wait more than five minutes for the oil to
drain back into the bottom of the engine.
Hold a rag under the end and
pull the dipstick out.
Wipe the dipstick clean.
Reinsert the dipstick fully.

■ Engine oil consumption
Some engine oil will be consumed while driving. The rate of consumption
can be affected by such factors as transmission type, driving style, terrain
and temperature. Under the following conditions, oil consumption can be
increased and thus require refilling between maintenance intervals:
● When the engine is new and within the break-in period
● When the engine oil is of lower quality
● When the incorrect oil viscosity is used
● When engine braking is employed (repeatedly)
