In order to get an accurate reading, the engine should
be at normal operating temperature, so that the oil
is warm, and the vehicle must be on level ground.
1. If the engine is at normal operating temperature and
the oil is warm, turn off the engine and allow at
least five minutes for the oil to drain back into the
oil pan. If you do not do this, the oil dipstick
might not show the actual level.
If the engine has not been run long enough to bring it
up to normal operating temperature and the oil is
cool, turn off the engine and allow 30 minutes for the
oil to drain back into the oil pan. If you do not do this,
the oil dipstick might not show the actual level.
2. Pull out the dipstick and clean it with a paper towel
or a cloth, then push it back in all the way.
3. Remove the dipstick again, keeping the tip down,
and check the oil level.
When to Add Engine Oil
Notice: Do not add too much oil. Keep the oil level
between the ADD and FULL marks on the dipstick.
Under normal engine operation, the engine oil
level can increase above the FULL mark as a result
of DPF regeneration. A small increase in the oil
level is normal. If the engine has so much oil that
the oil level reaches the wider portion (A) on
the dipstick, the engine oil must be changed as
soon as possible or the engine could be damaged.
If the oil is below the ADD
mark on the dipstick, add
at least one quart/liter
of the recommended oil.
This section explains what kind of oil to use. For engine
oil crankcase capacity, see Capacities and
Specifications on page 5-92.
Be sure to add enough oil
to put the level somewhere
in the proper operating
range. Push the dipstick all
the way back in when you
are through.
