dipstick, add 1 qt (1 L) of the recommended
oil and then recheck the level. See
“Selecting the Right Engine Oil” in this
section for an explanation of what kind of
oil to use. For engine oil crankcase capacity,

the location of the engine oil fill cap.
Add enough oil to put the level somewhere
in the proper operating range. Push the
dipstick all the way back in when through.
Caution
Do not add too much oil. Oil levels
above or below the acceptable
operating range shown on the dipstick
are harmful to the engine. If you find
that you have an oil level above the
operating range, i.e., the engine has so
much oil that the oil level gets above the
upper mark that shows the proper
operating range, the engine could be
damaged. You should drain out the
excess oil or limit driving of the vehicle
and seek a service professional to
remove the excess amount of oil.

Engine Oil Life System When to Change
Engine Oil
This vehicle has a computer system that
indicates when to change the engine oil
and filter. This is based on a combination of
factors which include engine revolutions,
engine temperature, and miles driven.
Based on driving conditions, the mileage at
which an oil change is indicated can vary
considerably. For the oil life system to work
properly, the system must be reset every
time the oil is changed.
