MAINTENANCE
1.0 T Engine
Check the oil level weekly and top up with oil when
necessary. Ideally, the oil level should be checked with the
engine cold and the car resting on level ground. However,
if the engine is running and already getting warm, wait for
at least five minutes after switching off the START/STOP
Switch before checking the level.
1 Withdraw the dipstick and wipe the blade clean.
2 Slowly insert the oil dipstick and pull it out again to
check the oil level; the oil level shall not be lower than
the "MIN" mark on the oil dipstick.
3 Clean off any debris that may have collected around
the oil filler cap area. Unscrew the oil filler cap and
refill the oil to maintain the oil level between the
"MAX" mark and "MIN" mark on the oil dipstick.
4 Wait for 5 minutes and then recheck the oil level,
adding more oil if necessary – DO NOT OVERFILL!
5 Finally, ensure the dipstick and filler cap are replaced.

manufacturer.
Refer to "Recommended Fluids and
