CHANGING ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER

CHECKING AND TOPPING UP
WARNING
Check the engine oil level when the engine is
hot.
NOTE Letting the engine idle with the vehicle at standstill is
not the correct procedure to warm the engine and engine oil
up to operating temperature for an oil check. Oil is best
checked after taking a short ride; 15 km (10 mi) will be
enough.
•
Stop the engine.
•
Keep the vehicle upright with both wheels on the
ground.
•
Unscrew and remove the dipstick (1).
• Check the oil level using the dipstick (1).
•
Level is correct when it is near the MAX mark.
MAX= maximum level
MIN = minimum level.
If necessary, top up the engine oil level as follows:
•
Unscrew and remove the dipstick (1).
• Top up with engine oil (see LUBRICANT TABLE) until
the level is above the minimum mark MIN.
WARNING
Do not add additives or other substances to the
fluid.
If you use a funnel or other tool, make sure it is
perfectly clean.
CHANGING ENGINE OIL
NOTE Change oil when it is hot, as it will be more fluid and
will drain off more easily.
•
Place a container holding more than 4000 cm
the drain plug (2).
•
