ENGINE OIL LEVEL INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0]
1. Position the vehicle on level ground.
2. Warm up the engine.
3. Stop the engine and allow at least 5 min before continuing.
4. Remove the dipstick, wipe it cleanly, and reinstall it fully.
5. Remove the dipstick and verify that the oil level is between the F and L marks on the dipstick.
-
If the oil level is below or near the L mark, add engine oil. (See ENGINE OIL REPLACEMENT [SKYACTIV-G 2.0].)
-
If the oil level is above the F mark, penetration of fuel into the engine oil can be considered. Replace the engine oil. (See ENGINE OIL REPLACEMENT [SKYACTIV-G 2.0].)
6. Insert the oil level gauge completely until it attaches to the cylinder head cover.
