4.3 Checking and topping up the engine oil level
1. Wait until the engine has cooled down.
2. Open the bonnet with the ignition key.
3. Read the engine oil gauge. (G)
WARNING
At operating temperature, the oil and the gauge area are hot.
Avoid the hot oil or the components coming into contact with your skin to avoid any physi-
cal injuries.
4. Clean the gauge with a cloth to remove any oil
deposits.
5. Insert the gauge into its tube.
6. Remove it. The engine oil level must be be-
tween markers H and L.
• If the oil level is below marker L, open the fill-
ing hole and top up to marker H.
F = Filler hole
• If the oil level is above marker H, remove the
excess quantity of oil via the drainage cap (P) then
check the level again.
Note
Do not pour the excess engine oil onto the
ground or the road.
• Once the engine oil is at the appropriate level, close the bonnet again.
• Select the oil according to the temperature. If you start the engine at temperatures below 0°C,
use an SAE 10W, an SAE 10W-30 or SAE 15W-40 even though the daytime temperature rises to
10°C.
