When to Add Engine Oil

If the oil is below the cross-hatched area at the tip of the
dipstick, you will need to add at least one quart/liter of oil.
But you must use the right kind. This section explains
what kind of oil to use. For engine oil crankcase capacity,
see Capacities and Specifications on page 5-106.

Notice: Do not add too much oil. If the engine
has so much oil that the oil level gets above the
cross-hatched area that shows the proper operating
range, the engine could be damaged.

See Engine Compartment
Overview
on page 5-10
for the location of the
engine oil fill cap.

Be sure to add enough oil to put the level somewhere
in the proper operating range in the cross-hatched area.
Push the dipstick all the way back in when you are
through.
