Checking engine oil level
The vehicle must be on a level surface when
checking the engine oil level. Wait a few minutes
after stopping the engine so the oil can run back
into the pan. Then withdraw the oil dipstick, wipe
with a clean cloth and insert again as far as
possible. Withdraw dipstick again and read
engine oil level.
Check engine oil level only with the engine
warm:
Oil temperature greater than 60 C (140 F)
Markings on oil dipstick:
CAUTION!
The oil level must NOT exceed the max. marking on the dipstick. a - Oil MUST NOT be topped up past this point
b - Oil may be topped up
c - Oil MUST be topped up. It is sufficient if the oil level, after topping up,
is somewhere within range -b- (knurled area)
