To Check the Oil Level
Before checking the oil, warm up the
engine to the normal operating tempera-
ture and be sure it is parked on level
ground. Turn the engine off.
Wait five minutes, then remove the dip-
stick, wipe it off, fully reinsert the dipstick
and withdraw it again. Then note the
highest level the oil has reached on the
dipstick. It should be between the upper
("F") and lower ("L") range.

NOTE:
o For good fuel economy, SAE 5W-20
(5W-30), ILSAC GF-3 engine oil is
preferred regardless of regional op-
tion and engine variation.
o If SAE 5W-20, ILSAC GF-3 engine oil
is not available, secondary recom-
mended engine oil for corresponding
temperature range can be used.

WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch the radia-
tor hose when checking the engine oil
as it may be hot enough to burn you.
