Reading the level using the dipstick
– remove the dipstick (refer to the fol-
lowing pages for its location) and
wipe it with a clean lint-free cloth;
– push the dipstick in as far as it will go
(for vehicles equipped with “cap-type
dipstick” C , screw the cap in com -
pletely);
– take out the dipstick again;
– read the level: it should never fall
below minimum mark A or exceed
maximum mark B.
Once the level has been checked,
ensure that the dipstick is pushed in as
far as it will go or that the cap-type dip-
stick is completely screwed in.

The oil level should only be read with
the dipstick as explained above.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum
level, do not start your vehicle and
contact an approved Dealer.
To prevent splashback, you are rec-
ommended to use a funnel to top up
the oil.
Under no circumstances
should maximum filling

could damage the engine

Consult your approved Dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in the park position.
