It is normal for an engine to use oil. You may
need to add oil between the recommended oil
change intervals. Before starting the engine,
check the engine oil level. Refill if necessary.
To check the oil level, remove the dipstick,
wipe it off, and gently reinsert it all the way.
Slowly pull the dipstick straight out and
check the oil level by checking the upper sur-
face of the dipstick. The oil level must not go
above the line on the dipstick.
If the level does not reach the line which
shows the minimum amount of oil required,
remove the oil filler cap on the engine valve
cover, and fill to within the “Good” range.

off the dipstick and reinsert it. Wait a
moment and then recheck the oil level by
checking the upper surface of the dipstick.

CAUTION
 Overfilling will cause oil aeration and loss of
oil pressure, which could damage the engine.

used oil touch your skin and wash thor-
