Engine oil
With the engine at operating temperature and turned off, check the oil
level on the dipstick.
Checking the engine oil
Except hybrid vehicle
Gasoline engine: Park the vehicle on level ground. After
warming up the engine and turning it off, wait more than 5
minutes for the oil to drain back into the bottom of the engine.
Diesel engine: Park the vehicle on level ground. After warm-
ing up the engine and turning it off, wait more than 5 minutes
for the oil to drain back into the bottom of the engine.
Hybrid vehicle
Park the vehicle on level ground. After warming up the engine
and turning off the hybrid system, wait more than 5 minutes
for the oil to drain back into the bottom of the engine.
Holding a rag under the end, pull the dipstick out.

Engine oil consumption
A certain amount of engine oil will be consumed while driving. In the follow-
ing situations, oil consumption may increase, and engine oil may need to be
refilled in between oil maintenance intervals.
When the engine is new, for example directly after purchasing the vehicle
or after replacing the engine
If low quality oil or oil of an inappropriate viscosity is used
When driving at high engine speeds or with a heavy load, when towing
(except hybrid vehicle [except for South Africa]), or when driving while
accelerating or decelerating frequently
When leaving the engine idling for a long time, or when driving frequently
through heavy traffic
