ENGINE OIL CHECK
CAUTION

engine treatments. Under certain
conditions, they could damage the

engines reaches its normal level after
approximately 5 000 kilometres (3 000
miles).

Note: Check the oil level before starting
the engine.
Note: Make sure that your vehicle is on
level ground.
Note: Oil expands when it is hot. The level
may therefore extend a few millimetres
beyond the MAX mark.
Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a
clean, lint free cloth. Replace the dipstick
and remove it again to check the oil level.
Make sure that the oil level is between the
MIN and the MAX marks. If it is, you do
not need to top up. If it is at the MIN
mark, top up immediately.

CAUTION
Do not top up further than the MAX

Top up with oil that meets the Ford
