Engine Oil Level - Check
1.
Pull out the oil level gauge and wipe oil off the oil
level gauge using a clean waste cloth.
2.
Insert the oil level gauge fully into the oil level
gauge guide and then pull it out again.

The proper oil level is between the high and low
marks on the oil level gauge. If the engine oil goes
over the high marks on the oil level gauge, open
the engine oil drain valve to drain oil. If the engine
oil is low, refill the specified engine oil.
4.
Install the oil filler cap after adding engine oil.
5.
Check the oil pan and other area for oil leaks.
