Engine Oil
CHECK
OIL
If
the CHECK
OIL
light
on the instrument panel
comes on, it means you
need to check your engine
oil level right away.
For
more information, see “Check Oil Light” in the
Index.
You
should check your engine oil level regularly;
this is an added reminder.
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 engine
yellow and
fi-ont
of
the
oil dipstick is
located on the
engine.
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.
