Requirements
-
Oil level should always be checked with engine warm: oil temperature above 60°C (140°F).
-
Vehicle must be standing on level ground when checking oil level. Wait several minutes after switching engine off to allow oil to flow back into

Remove dipstick, wipe off using clean cloth and insert it again as far as it will go.
-
Remove dipstick again and read oil level.
Markings on oil dipstick:
a- Do not top off oil.
b- Oil can be topped off. The oil level may rise as far as area -a- after topping off.
