• If the oil level is between the

MIN and MAX marks, the oil
level is acceptable. DO NOT
ADD OIL.

• If the oil level is below the MIN

mark, add enough engine oil to
raise the level within the MIN and
MAX range. Refer to Adding
engine oil
in this chapter.

Oil levels above MAX mark

may cause engine damage. If
the engine is overfilled, some oil
must be removed from the engine
by an authorized dealer.

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 not above the
normal operating range on the engine oil level dipstick.

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

5. Fully install the engine oil filler cap by turning the filler cap clockwise
1/4 of a turn until three clicks are heard or until the cap is fully seated.

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