Before we get started, have a rag handy and we need to locate our Owner’s Manual.
It is normally stored in the glove compartment.If you have any questions during the procedure,
refer to it for details.
Step 1
Ensure that your car is parked and the engine is off.
Locate and activate the hood release.

Carefully find the safety catch and raise the hood with your other hand.
Step 3
While holding up the hood, attach the support rod.
Step 4
Locate the oil dipstick.If you are unsure of the location, refer to the
manual.
Step 5
Pull out the oil dipstick.Examine the level and condition.If the oil on the dipstick is black, you should
consider getting the oil changed.
