Engine Oil Level

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Nissan Quest. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Before starting the engine make sure the vehicle is parked on a flat and level surface, then check the oil level. If the engine is already running, turn it off and allow five minutes before checking.
Check that the oil level is within the low (L) and high (H) range as indicated on the dipstick.
If the engine oil level is out of range, add oil as necessary. Refer to "RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS ".
