Engine Oil
If the LOW OIL light
appears on the instrument
panel, it means you need to
check your engine oil level
right away. For more
information, see “Low Oil
Level Light” in the Index.
You should check your engine oil level regularly; this is
an added reminder.
Checking Engine Oil
It’s a good idea to check your engine oil every time you
get fuel. In order to get an accurate reading, the oil must
be warm and the vehicle must be on level ground.
The engine oil dipstick
handle is the yellow loop
near the front of the engine.
See “Engine Compartment
Overview” in the Index
for more information
on location.
Turn off the engine and give the oil several minutes to
drain back into the oil pan. If you don’t, the oil dipstick
might not show the actual level.
Pull out the dipstick
and clean it with a
paper towel or cloth,
then push it back in all
the way. Remove it
again, keeping the tip
down, and check
the level.
