2. Start the engine, warm it up for 10–15
minutes, and then turn it off.
TIP

gine to idle for at least 10 seconds before
turning it off.

5. Remove the oil filler cap, wipe the dipstick
clean, insert it back into the oil filler hole
(without screwing it in), and then remove
it again to check the oil level.
TIP
The engine oil should be between the “H” and
“L” level marks on the dipstick.
6. If the engine oil is below the “L” level
mark, add sufficient oil of the recom-
mended type to raise it to the “H” level
mark. (See page 81 for the recommend-
ed oil.) NOTICE: When adding the en-
gine oil, be careful not to fill above the
“H” level mark on the dipstick. Use
only the recommended oil. (See page
81.) Make sure that no foreign material
enters the engine oil tank.
