(Diesel engine)
1. Be sure the vehicle is on level
ground.
2. Start the engine and allow it to reach
normal operating temperature.
3. Turn the engine off and wait for a
few minutes (about 5 minutes) for
the oil to return to the oil pan.
4. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean,
and re-insert it fully.
5. Pull the dipstick out again and
check the level.
6. The level should be in the C range.
If the level is in the D range, add
enough engine oil to bring the
level up to the C range.

Be very careful not to touch the
radiator hose when checking or
adding the engine oil as it may
be hot enough to burn you.

adding or changing engine oil. If
you drop the engine oil on the

you should wipe it with a clean
