That indicates you have to much oil in the engine
The maximum amount is 8.5 quarts and often even 8.5 is a bit to much.
Most of us only put 8 quarts in when changing the oil as the pan always has a small amount of oil after it is drained or vacuumed out
Drain out about a quart and you should be good
Check again when the oil is completely settled and add a bit more if needed
