How do I check my Kia Sportage's engine oil level?

I recently bought a used 2017 Kia Sportage and I'm unsure how to check the engine oil level. Can someone provide a step-by-step guide on how to do it correctly?

To check the engine oil level in your Kia Sportage, first make sure the engine is off and the car is parked on a level surface. Locate the engine oil dipstick under the hood. Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean. Then, reinsert the dipstick all the way back in and pull it out again. The oil level should be between the two lines on the dipstick. If it's below the bottom line, you'll need to add more oil.

In addition to checking the engine oil level, it's also important to check the oil condition. If the oil appears dirty or has a milky color, it may be time for an oil change. You should also check for any leaks or unusual smells, as these could be signs of bigger issues.

You should typically check your Kia Sportage's engine oil level once a month, and change the oil every 3,000 - 5,000 miles depending on your driving habits. It's important to keep your engine properly lubricated to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
