the oil level with the dipstick.
If the oil level is below the ADD mark, add oil until it reaches
the FULL mark. Start the engine and check for proper pres-

High Altitude
At altitudes over 5,000 feet (1,524 meters), a minimum 85
emissions compliant, high altitude adjustment is required.
Operation without this adjustment will cause decreased
performance, increased fuel consumption, and increased
emissions. See an authorized dealer for high altitude ad-
justment information.
Operation of the engine at altitudes below 2,500 feet (762
meters) with the high altitude adjustment is not recom-
mended.
