with the dipstick
– remove the dipstick (refer to the fol-
lowing pages for its location) and
wipe it with a clean lint-free cloth;
– push the dipstick in as far as it will
go (for vehicles equipped with a cap-
type dipstick C, screw the cap in as
far as it will go);
– take out the dipstick again;
– read the level: it should never fall
below minimum mark A or exceed

Once the operation has been com-
pleted, ensure that the dipstick is
pushed in as far as it will go or that
the "cap-type dipstick" is completely
screwed in.
Under no circumstance
should maximum filling
level B be exceeded: this
could damage the engine
and the catalytic converter.

Maximum engine oil level
exceeded.
The oil level should only be read with
the dipstick as explained above.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum
level, do not start your vehicle and
contact an approved Dealer.
Consult your approved Dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
To prevent splashback, you are rec-
ommended to use a funnel to top up
the oil.
The engine may be hot
when carrying out opera-
tions in close proximity. In
addition, the engine cooling
fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
