As a final check, check the oil level again with the vehicle on level ground. Like all liquids, oil increases in volume when warm. The full 'H' mark on the dipstick is calibrated for an engine at operating temperature. When the engine is cold, the oil will be below the full mark. The engine can be operated safely as long as the oil is within the safe operating range as indicated on the dipstick.
