that any leaked fluid will come
into contact with a hot surface,
such as the exhaust. Seek
qualified assistance immediately.
CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
LEVEL
Check the engine oil weekly. If any
significant or sudden drop in oil
level is noted, seek qualified
assistance.
Never allow the oil level to fall
below the lower mark or notch on
the dipstick.
If the message ENGINE OIL
PRESSURE LOW is displayed, stop
the engine as soon as it is safe to
do so and seek qualified assistance.
Do not start the engine until the
cause has been rectified.
1. Engine oil dipstick - 2.0L petrol.
2. Engine oil dipstick - 2.2L diesel.
3. Engine oil dipstick - 2.0L diesel
The dipstick on 2.0L diesel engines
features a lug, to aid correct
fitment. Make sure the lug is
correctly aligned with the groove in
the dipstick tube. Failure to do this
could result in the dipstick not
fitting correctly, and oil escaping
from the engine.
Prior to checking the oil level, make sure
that:
• The vehicle is on level ground.
• The engine oil is cold.
