Adding engine oil

1. Check the engine oil. For instructions, refer to Checking the engine

oil in this chapter.

2. If the engine oil level is not within the normal range, add only

certified engine oil of the recommended viscosity. Remove the engine
oil filler cap and use a funnel to pour the engine oil into the opening.

3. Recheck the engine oil level. Make sure the oil level is within the

normal range on the engine oil level indicator (dipstick).

4. Install the indicator and ensure it is fully seated.

5. Fully install the engine oil filler cap by turning the filler cap 1/4 turn

until it stops.

To avoid possible oil loss, DO NOT operate the vehicle with the
engine oil level indicator and/or the engine oil filler cap removed.
