Filling up engine oil
Caution!
Too much or incorrect engine oil can result in engine damage! For this reason:
☞ Do not add engine oil above the MAX mark of oil dipstick 8/A
☞ Do not fill in engine oil below the MIN mark of oil dipstick 8/A
☞ Use only the specified engine oil
– see chapter 3.1 Fluids and lubricants on page 3-2
Use a suitable container to collect the engine oil as it drains and dispose of it in an environ-
mentally friendly manner!
• 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
• Fill in 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 3-17
• Fill up 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
• Close and lock the engine cover
Caution!
Filling in the engine oil too fast via filler inlet B in the valve cover can cause
engine damage.
☞ Fill in the engine oil slowly so it can go down without entering the intake
system.
