Procedure
- Open the vehicle’s hood. Go to the driver’s seat and pull the hood release under the dashboard. Then, go to the front of the vehicle and unlock the hood latch by sliding it to the left. Pull up the hood release and use the supporting rod to hold the hood up.
- Locate the engine oil dipstick on the passenger side of the engine compartment.
- Pull out the dipstick and wipe it clean. Then, put the dipstick back in and pull it out again. Check for the oil level at the bottom tip of the dipstick. The two dots on the bottom end of the dipstick indicate the high and low points of the engine’s oil level. You must add engine oil if the oil level is below the low threshold.
- If the oil level is low, locate the engine’s oil cap and remove it by twisting it counterclockwise.
Use an oil funnel when possible to add engine oil and avoid spills. Add one quart if needed, then recheck the oil level. Do not fill over the MAX mark on the dipstick.
Use the engine oil recommended by the vehicle’s manufacturer.
- Recheck the oil level. If you need to add more oil, be sure not to overfill it, as this can damage the engine.
- Put back the oil cap when done adding the engine oil.
