Ok this probably sounds like an idiotic question. I feel like an dork for not being able to figure this out.

Where is the reading level on the oil dipstick? There are no words or prominent markings. There is a criss cross pattern etched towards the bottom (pointed end) but it looks different than the picture in the manual. If I recall correctly my old car (Mazda) had the words literally etched on (Max, Min).

2001 S40. Thank you!

The criss-cross pattern is the oil level.
