Low Oil Level
Light
Don’t keep driving if the oil pressL-d
is
low.
If
you
do,
your engine can become
so
hot that it
catches fire. You or others could be burned.
Check your
oil
as soon as possible and have your
vehicle serviced.
I
NOTICE:
Damage to your engine from neglected oil
problems can be costly and
is
not covered by
your warranty.
LOW
OIL
Your engine is equipped
with an oil level monitoring
system. When the ignition
key
is
turned on, the
LOW
OIL
light will come
on briefly.
If the light does not come on briefly, have it fixed
so
it
will be ready to warn you if there’s a problem.
If the light stays on, stop the vehicle on a level surface
and turn the engine
off.
Check the oil level using the
engine oil dipstick. (See “Engine Oil” in the Index.) If
the light does not flash, have the
low
oil level sensor
system repaired
so
it will be ready to warn
you
if there’s
a
problem.
The oil
level
monitoring system only checks oil level
during the brief period between key on and engine
crank. It does not monitor engine oil level when the
engine is running. Additionally, an oil level check is
only performed if the engine has been turned off for a
considerable period of time, allowing the oil normally in
circulation
to
drain back into the oil pan.
