Adding engine oil
Too much or incorrect engine oil can cause engine damage! For this reason:
☞Do not add engine oil above the MAX mark of oil dipstick 81/A
☞Use only the specified engine oil
In order to avoid engine damage, add the engine oil slowly so it can go down
without entering the intake system.
Use a suitable container to collect fluids and lubricants as they flow out and
dispose of them in an environmentally friendly manner.
Adding engine oil
☞Proceed as follows:
• Clean the area around oil filler cap B with a lint-free cloth
• Open filler cap B
• Raise oil dipstick A slightly to allow any trapped air to escape
• Add engine oil
• Wait about 3 minutes until all the oil has run into the oil sump
• Check the oil level – see Checking the oil level on page 5-10
• Add oil if necessary and check the oil level again
• Close filler cap B
• Push oil dipstick A back in as far as possible
• Completely remove all oil spills from the engine
