Reading Hybrid oil dipstick

[Old Maverick]

Been a long time since I had a Ford. On the hybrid oil dip stick, there is the cross hair hash marks, and lower and upper small holes. So is full at top of cross hairs or to the top hole on dipstick? I'll be doing an oil change myself at 3k so just checking. Thanks.

Well. To answer my own question. The top of the hash grid is full, top hole is maximum. And this is also in manual: Maximum engine wear on new engine is achieved at 3000 miles. That is, the break in point. Consumer Reports changes oil at 3000 miles for their road tests.

Thanks for the clarification... And on my last birthday too

Can you explain that bit about maximum engine wear more? I don’t see that in the manual.
