ENGINE OIL CHECK
1.
Make sure that your vehicle is on level
ground.
2. Check the oil level before starting the
engine, or switch the engine off and
wait 15 minutes for the oil to drain into
the oil pan.
3. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with
a clean, lint free cloth. Replace the
dipstick and remove it again to check
the oil level.
If the oil level is at the minimum mark, add
oil immediately. See
Capacities and
Specifications
(page 262).
Do not use supplemental engine oil
additives because they are unnecessary
and could lead to engine damage that may
not be covered by your vehicle warranty.
Note:
Make sure that the oil level is
between the minimum and the maximum
marks.
Note:
The oil consumption of new engines
reaches its normal level after approximately
3,000 mi (5,000 km).
