Checking the engine oil

Refer to the scheduled maintenance information for the appropriate
intervals for checking the engine oil.

1. Make sure the vehicle is on level ground.

2. Turn the engine off and wait a few minutes for the oil to drain into the
oil pan.

3. Set the parking brake and ensure the gearshift is securely latched in P
(Park).

4. Open the hood. Protect yourself from engine heat.

5. Locate and carefully remove the
engine oil level indicator (dipstick).

6. Wipe the indicator clean. Insert the indicator fully, then remove it
again.
• If the oil level is within this

range, the oil level is acceptable.
DO NOT ADD OIL.

mark, engine oil must be added

normal operating range.
