procedures are observed.
Unscrew and extract the plug/dipstick
(1).
Clean the part in contact with the oil with
a clean cloth.
Tighten the plug/dipstick (1) fully into the
filler opening (2).
Extract the plug/dipstick (1) again and
check oil level on the dipstick:
MAX = maximum level;
MIN = minimum level.
The difference between the MAX and MIN
level is about:
– 400 cc
Correct level is achieved when the oil
reaches or is just below the dipstick
MAX level mark.
Oil level must be between the MAX and
MIN level marks. Incorrect oil level will
cause severe engine damage.
Top up if needed.

TOPPING UP
Pour a small quantity of oil into the filler
opening (2). Allow one minute for oil to
flow into the crankcase.
Check level and top up if needed.
Top up with small quantities of oil until
obtaining the correct level.
When finished, tighten the plug/dipstick
(1).
Do not use the vehicle when lubricant
levels are low or lubricant has become
contaminated. Use specified lubricants
only. Improper lubrication will lead to
moving parts fretting, resulting in
irreparable damage.
