Open the engine cover.
Loosen the dipstick, pull it up and wipe it off.
Now insert the dipstick again.
Pull the dipstick out again and read the oil level.
The oil level should be between the markings on the dipstick.
If the level is approaching the ADD mark, top up the oil to the
FULL mark on the dipstick.
The oil filler is on the valve cap. Fill the oil slowly.
Tighten the dipstick correctly before starting the engine. Start
and run the engine at idling speed for approx. 30 seconds.
Turn off the motor. Wait 30 seconds and check the oil level. If
necessary fill so that the oil comes up to the FULL mark on
the dipstick.
