Park the vehicle on a level surface.
Insert the dipstick all the way back
into its hole.
Wipe off the dipstick with a clean
cloth or paper towel.
Remove the dipstick (orange loop).
Wait a few minutes after turning the
engine off before you check the oil.
To close the hood, lower it to about a
foot (30 cm) above the fender, then
press down firmly with your hands.
Make sure the hood is securely
latched.
Lift the hood up most of the way.
The hydraulic supports will lift it
up the rest of the way and hold it
up.
If the hood latch handle moves
stiffly, or if you can open the hood
without lifting the handle, the
mechanism should be cleaned and
lubricated.
Put your fingers between the front
edge of the hood and the front
grille to locate the hood latch
handle. Push this handle up until it
releases the hood. Lift the hood.
