Engine Oil Level Check
- Park the vehicle on level ground, and start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3, 000 RPM with no load (in neutral (M/T model) or P or N (A/T model)) until the radiator fan comes on, then turn off the engine, and wait a few minutes.
- Remove the dipstick, and wipe off the dipstick, then reinstall the dipstick.
- Remove the dipstick, and check the engine oil level. It should be between the upper mark (A) and the lower mark (B).

- If the engine oil level is near or below the lower mark, check for oil leakage, and add the engine oil (see step 4) to bring it to the upper mark.
