WARNING
Operating fluids and some materials in the engine compartment can catch fire easily, causing burns and other serious personal injuries!
x Never smoke near the engine compartment.
x Never work next to open flames or sparks.
x Never pour or spill operating fluids or other flammable liquids on the engine. These fluids can ignite on hot engine parts and cause injuries.
x If work on the fuel system or the electrical system is necessary:
– Always disconnect the 12 Volt vehicle battery. Make sure the vehicle is unlocked when you disconnect the battery, or the alarm will go off. Never touch the electrical wiring of the ignition system.
– Never work near heaters, water heaters, or other open flames.
x Always have a functional, approved fire extinguisher nearby.
NOTICE
When changing or topping off fluids, make sure that you pour the fluids into the correct reser-voirs. Adding the wrong type of operating fluids will cause serious malfunctions and engine damage.
Fluid leaks and spills are harmful to the environment. Regularly check the ground underneath your vehicle for this reason. If you find spots of oil or other fluids, have your vehicle checked by your authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. Dispose of leaked operating fluids properly.

Checking the engine oil level and adding oil

Fig. 167 Engine oil dipstick with oil level marks. A: For vehicles with gasoline engines. B: For vehicles with diesel engines.

Fig. 168 In the engine compartment: Engine oil filler cap.

7. Remove the dipstick again and read the oil level on the dipstick ⇒ fig. 167 as described below:
(A): Do not start the engine ⇒ . Contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance.
(B): Do not add any oil ⇒ . Continue with step 15.
(C): Oil may be added, depending on the oil level. Continue with step 8 or step 15.
(D): You must add oil (about 1 quart / 1.0 liter). Continue with step 8.
8. After reading the oil level, reinsert the dipstick back into the guide tube and push it all the way in.
9. Remove the cap on the engine oil filler opening ⇒ fig. 168.
10. Only add engine oil that Volkswagen has approved for that engine. Add the oil gradually in small quantities (no more than 1 pint / 0.5 liter).
11. To help prevent overfilling, you must wait about 1 minute each time you add oil so that the oil can flow into the oil pan up to the marking on the dipstick.
12. Read the oil level on the dipstick again before adding another small amount, if necessary. Never
add too much oil ⇒ .
13. After adding oil, the level must at least be in the center of the ⇒ fig. 167 (C) range and can enter
range (B), but should never enter range (A) ⇒ .
14. After adding oil, securely install the cap on the engine oil filler opening. Otherwise, oil could leak out while the engine is running.
15. Insert the oil dipstick back in the guide tube and push it all the way in.
16. Close the hood ⇒ 
Engine oil level ranges

fig. 167 Required action according to the respective engine oil
level:
Range (A) Do not start the engine ⇒ . Contact an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service
Facility for assistance.
Range (B) Do not refill oil ⇒ .
Range (C) You may add oil, as long as the oil level does not go
above the (B) range.
Range (D)
You must add oil (about 1 quart / 1.0 liter). After adding
oil, make sure that the oil level is about in the middle of
the (C) range.

WARNING
Engine oil can ignite when it touches hot engine parts. This can cause fires, burns, and other severe injuries.
x Never spill oil on the engine. Oil spilled on a cold engine can also cause a fire when the engine warms up.
x Always make certain that you screw the cap of the engine oil filler opening back on tightly after adding oil and that the dipstick has been pushed all the way back into the in the guide tube. This helps prevent engine oil from leaking onto the hot engine when the engine is run-ning.
NOTICE
x Do not start the engine if the engine oil level is in range (A). Contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. Otherwise the catalytic con-verter and engine can be damaged!
x When changing or topping off fluids, make sure that you pour the fluids into the correct reservoirs. Adding the wrong type of operating fluids will cause serious malfunctions and engine damage.
The engine oil level should never be in range (A). Otherwise oil can be drawn in by the crankcase ventilation system and enter the atmosphere via the exhaust system.
