qInspecting Engine Oil Level

1. Be sure the vehicle is on a level

surface.

2. Warm up the engine to normal

operating temperature.

3. Turn it off and wait at least 5 minutes

for the oil to return to the oil pan.

reinsert it fully.

5. Pull it out again and examine the level.

It's OK between MIN and MAX. But if
it's below MIN, add oil to raise the
level within the hatching zone.

CAUTION

Don't add engine oil over MAX. This
may cause engine damage.

6. Make sure the O-ring on the dipstick is

positioned properly before reinserting
the dipstick.
