the normal operating temperature and be sure
your car is parked on level ground. Turn the
engine off.
Wait five minutes , then remove the dipstick,
wipe it off, fully reinsert the dipstick and withdraw
it again. Then note the highest level the oil has
reached on the dipstick. It should be between
the upper ("F") and lower ("L") range.

regardless of regional option and en-
gine variation.
o If SAE 5W-20, ILSAC GF-3 engine oil is

ture range can be used.
