Before closing the hood, be sure all the filler caps are on
properly. Then lift the hood to relieve pressure on the
hood prop.
Remove the hood prop from the slot in the hood and
return the prop to its retainer.
Then just pull the hood down firmly to close. It will
latch when dropped from
10
to12 inches (25 to
30
cm)
without pressing on the hood.
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 oil dipstick is a
yellow ring.
Turn
off
the engine and give
the oil
a
few minutes to
drain back into the oil pan.
If you don’t, the oil dipstick
might not show the
actual level.
Checking Engine Oil
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.
