Engine oil level: topping up, filling and oil change
Topping up/filling
The vehicle must be parked on level
ground and the engine should be cold
(for instance, before the engine is
started up for the first time in the day).
– Unscrew cap 1;
– top up the oil (please note that the
capacity between the “MINI” and the
“MAXI” marks on the dipstick 2 is ap-
proximately 0.22 gal (1 litre);
– wait for approximately 10 minutes to
allow the oil to flow into the engine;
– check the level using the dipstick 2
(as described above).
Once the operation has been com-
pleted, ensure that the dipstick is
pushed in as far as it will go and that
the cap is completely screwed in.
ENGINE OIL LEVEL: topping up, filling, draining (1/2)
Do not exceed the “MAXI” level and
do not forget to refit cap 1 and dip-
stick 2.

Before performing any
action in the engine com-
partment, the ignition must
be switched off (please see
the information on “Starting, stop-
ping the engine” in Section 2).
Adding engine oil
Use a funnel or protect the
filling neck area to avoid
engine oil escaping onto a
hot part of the engine compartment
or sensitive parts (e.g. electrical
components).
Fire hazard.
