ENGINE OIL LEVEL: topping up/filling

1
Topping up/filling
The vehicle must be parked on level
ground and the engine should be cold
(for instance, before the engine is star-
ted up for the first time in the day).
Before performing any
action in the engine com-
partment, the ignition must
be switched off by pressing
the engine stop button (please see
the information on "Starting, stop-
ping the engine" in Section 2).

– Unscrew cap 1;
– top up the level (as a guide, the ca-
pacity between the minimum and
maximum reading on the dipstick 2
is between 1.5 and 2 litres, depen-
ding on the engine);
– wait for approximately 10 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 comple-
ted, ensure that the dipstick is pushed
in as far as it will go and that the cap is
completely screwed in.

In order to prevent splashback, it is
recommended that a funnel be used
when topping up/filling with oil.
Do not exceed the max level and
do not forget to refit cap 1 and dips-
tick 2.
