drive to a flat surface. turn to acc. use your steering wheel control and change it to where it shows the temperature. use the arrows and your get to the check engine level.

Why not go get your oil changed since you just bought the car and your not positive about what's in there?

there is a dipstick for checking the oil on the 350 engine and I don't think it will be hard to find. Even though the notice about checking the oil looks very alarming on the dashboard, the oil is probably not yet at the 'add oil' mark but the car will gladly take a quart.
I seem to need a quart every 3,500 miles or so.
