Shut the engine off and wait 30 minutes. Open the hood and locate the dipstick. Pull it out and wipe it off. Insert it all the way back in and remove it. Read the oil level on the dipstick. Do not overfill. If you cannot find the dipstick then drive to the nearest mechanic or auto parts store and they will show you where it is.
