Adding engine oil
Too much, not enough or incorrect engine oil can cause engine damage.
Loss of output and engine damage.
☞ Add engine oil above the MIN mark of oil dipstick 234/A.
☞ Do not add engine oil above the MAX mark of oil dipstick 261/A.
☞ Use only the specified engine oil (refill with the same engine oil).
Adding the engine oil too fast via the filler inlet in the valve cover can cause
engine damage.
☞ Add the engine oil slowly so it can go down without entering the intake system.
Use a suitable container to collect the engine oil as it drains and dispose of it in
an environmentally friendly manner.
• Clean the area around oil filler cap B with a lint-free cloth.
• Open filler cap B.
• Raise oil dipstick A slightly to allow any trapped air to escape.
• Add engine oil.
• Wait about 3 minutes until all the oil has run into the oil sump.
• Check the oil level – see Checking the engine oil level on page 5-7.
• Add oil if necessary and check the oil level again.
• Close filler cap B.
• Push oil dipstick A back in as far as possible.
• Completely remove all oil spills.
• Close and lock the engine cover.
