Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with the
vehicle parked on level ground.
The oil level should be between the MIN
and MAX marks on the dipstick.
NOTE

85 HP and 105 HP versions have the
dipstick integrated in the engine oil plug.
❒ The range between the MIN and MAX
marks corresponds to about
1 litre of oil.
❒ If the level of the oil is close to or
below the MIN mark, add oil via the
filler until the MAX mark is reached.
❒ The oil level should never exceed the
MAX mark.
❒ The maximum engine oil
consumption is approx. 400 grams
every 1,000 km.
