ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER

Checking the engine oil level

1. Be sure the vehicle is on level ground.
2. Start the engine and allow it to reach

normal operating temperature.

3. Turn the engine off and wait for a few

minutes (about 5 minutes) for the oil to
return to the oil pan.

4. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean, and

re-insert it fully.

5. Pull the dipstick out again and check

the level. The level should be between
F and L.

If it is near or at L, add enough oil to bring
the level to F.

Do not overfill.

Use only the specified engine oil. (Refer
to “Recommended Lubricants” later in
this section.)

Changing the engine oil and filter

Change engine oil and filter according to
the Scheduled Maintenance at the begin-
ning of this section.
