Checking engine oil level
After longer Maxi-Scooter
immobilization periods, en-
gine oil can collect in the oil pan;
this must be pumped into the oil
tank before the reading is taken.
Here, the engine oil must be at
operating temperature. Checking
the oil level with the engine cold
or after a short trip leads to mis-
interpretations and therefore to
incorrect oil fill quantities.
