The maximum engine oil
consumption is 0.6 l per 600 miles.
Check with the vehicle on a level
surface. The engine must be at
operating temperature and switched
off for at least 5 minutes.Caution
It is the owner's responsibility to
maintain the proper level of an
appropriate quality oil in the
engine.
Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean,
reinsert it fully, pull out and read the
engine oil level.
Different dipsticks are used
depending on engine variant.
When the engine oil level has
dropped to the MIN mark, top up the
engine oil. We recommend the use of the same grade of engine oil that was
used at last change.
The engine oil level must not exceed
the MAX mark on the dipstick.

Coolant level
Caution
Too low a coolant level can cause engine damage.
If the cooling system is cold, the
coolant level should be above the
MIN mark. Top up if the level is low.
9Warning
Allow the engine to cool before
opening the cap. Carefully open
the cap, relieving the pressure
slowly.
To top up, use a 1:1 mixture of
released coolant concentrate mixed
with clean tap water. If no coolant
concentrate is available, use clean
tap water. Install the cap tightly. Have
the coolant concentration checked
and have the cause of the coolant
loss remedied by a workshop.
