TIP
If the engine was started before checking the oil
level, be sure to warm up the engine sufficiently,
and then wait at least ten minutes until the oil set-
tles for an accurate reading.
4. Remove the engine oil filler cap, and then
wipe the engine oil dipstick off with a clean
rag.
5. Insert the dipstick into the filler hole (without
screwing it in), and then remove it again to
check the oil level.
TIP
The engine oil should be between the tip of the
dipstick and the maximum level mark.
6. If the engine oil is not between the tip of the
dipstick and the maximum level mark, add
sufficient oil of the recommended type to
raise it to the correct level.
NOTICE:
Be sure
the engine oil is at the correct level, other-
wise engine damage may result.
