gstyle, the vehicle con-
sumes amaximum of 0.8 loil per 100 0km.
Th eo il consumption may be higher than this
when the vehicle is new or if you frequently
drive at high engine speeds.
When checking the oil level:
R park the vehicle on alevel surface.
R the engine should be switched off for at
least fiv eminutes if the engine is at normal
operating temperature.
R the engine should be switched off for at
least thirt yminutes if the engine is not at
normal operating temperature, e.g. if the
engine was only started briefly.
Checking the oil level using the oil dip-
stick Depending on the engine, the oil dipstick may
be installed at
adifferent location. E3
