Engine oil
Notes on the oil level
Depending on driving style, the vehicle con-
sumes a maximum of 0.8 l oil per 1000 km.
The oil consumption may be higher than this
when the vehicle is new or if you frequently
drive at high engine speeds.
Checking the oil level using the oil dip-
stick
On vehicles with a diesel engine, the oil level
can be checked using the on-board computer.
The engine oil for petrol engines is checked
using a dipstick.
When checking the oil level:
R
park the vehicle on a level surface.
R
the engine should be switched off for
approximately five minutes if the engine is
at normal operating temperature.
