Engine Oil Top-Up; Warning Light (Insufficient Oil Pressure) (03_05; Engine Oil Change - PIAGGIO X7 EVO 300ie Manual

Engine oil top-up

Always check oil level before topping-up and add oil without exceeding the MAX
level. Getting an oil level between the MINand MAX levels requires ~ 200 cm³ (125ie)
or ~ 400 cm³ (300ie) of oil. Take your vehicle to an Authorised Service Centre to
have the engine oil checked and if necessary, topped-up as indicated in the scheduled
maintenance table.

Warning light (insufficient oil pressure) (03_05)

The vehicle is equipped with a warning light that comes on when the key is turned to
«ON». However, this light should come off once the engine has been started. If the
light comes on while braking, at idle speed or while turning a corner, it is nec-
essary to check the oil level and top it up if required. If after having topped-up
the oil, the warning light still comes on while braking, at idle speed or while
turning a corner, it will be necessary to take your vehicle to an Authorised Serv-
ice Centre.

Engine oil change (03_06)

Have oil changed and the cartridge filter «C» replaced as indicated in the scheduled
maintenance table at an Authorised Service Centre. The engine should be emptied
by draining the oil through drainage plug «B » of the mesh filter on the flywheel side.
In order to facilitate the oil drainage, loosen the cap/dipstick. Since a certain quantity
of oil still remains in the circuit, add approx. 950 ÷ 1000 cm³ of oil through the cap
«A. Then start the engine, leave it running for a few minutes and shut it off: after 5
minutes, check the level and if necessary, top-up without exceeding the MAX lev-
el. The cartridge filter must be replaced at every oil change. For top-ups and changes,
use new oil of the recommended type.
