Engine oil level: topping up and filling
ENGINE OIL LEVEL: topping up, filling, draining (1/3)
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 level (as a guide, the ca-
pacity between the “mini" and the
"maxi" reading on the dipstick 2
is between 0.33 and 0.44 gallons
(1.5 and 2 litres) depending on the
engine);
– wait for approximately 20 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 or that
the “cap-type dipstick” is completely
screwed in.
Do not exceed the “maxi" level and
do not forget to refit the cap 1 and
the dipstick 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 a sensitive part (e.g. electrical
components).
Fire hazard.
