If the bonnet can be raised slightly, it is
not properly engaged. Open it again and
close it with a little more force. Engine oil
Depending on driving style, the vehicle con-
sumes a maximum of 0.8 l oil per 1000 km.
The oil consumption may be highert han this
when the vehicle is new or if you frequently
drive at high engine speeds.
Checking the engine oil level X
To check the engine oil, move the vehicle
to level ground. Switch off the engine at
normal operating temperature after run-
ning it in neutral for 30 seconds. X
Unscrew oil filler cap 0001with the integrated
oil dipstick and wipe the dipstick.
X Screw oil filler cap 0001back all the way to
the stop.
X Unscrew oil filler cap 0001again and read the
dipstick.
The oil level is correct if the level is between
minimum mark 0015and maximum mark 0002.
X Top up the oil if necessary.
Topping up the engine oil H
Environmental note
When topping up the oil, take care not to spill
any. Oil must not be allowed to escape into
the soil or waterways. You would otherwise be
damaging the environment. X
Unscrew and remove oil filler cap 0001with
the integrated dipstick.
X Top up with the amount of oil required
(Y page 350).
i The difference between the minimum
mark and maximum mark is approximately
1.5 litres.
! Do not add too much oil. If too much oil
is added and the oil level is above the max-
imum mark on the dipstick, the engine or
catalytic converter could be damaged.
Have excess oil siphoned off.
X Screw oil filler cap 0001back all the way to
the stop.
Ensure that the oil filler cap locks into place
securely.
You can find further information about engine
oil on (Y page 350). Coolant
Only check the coolant level when the vehicle
is on a level surface and the engine has cooled
down.
X Set the Start/Stop button to key position
2(Y page 202).
X Check the coolant temperature in the on-
board computer (Y page 241). G
Risk of injury
The cooling system is pressurised. Therefore,
only unscrew the cap once the engine has
cooled down. The coolant temperature gauge Engine compartment
