WASHER FLUID ENGINE OIL
Headlamp * and
windshield washer system
Capacity approx. 2.6 quarts (2.5 liters) per
reservoir.
Fill with water and – if required – with anti-
freeze (according to manufacturer's recom-
mendations).
We recommend that you mix the
washer fluid before adding it to the
reservoir.
<
Antifreeze agent for the washer
systems is flammable. Always keep it
well away from sparks and open flames,
and store it in tightly closed containers well
out of the reach of children. Always observe
the instructions for use provided on the
container.

Measuring the oil level
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface
2. Switch off the warmed-up engine
3. Pull the dipstick out after approx.
5 minutes and wipe it off with a lint-free
cloth, paper towel, or similar material
4. Carefully push the dipstick all the way
into the guide tube and pull it out again.
The oil level must be between the two
marks on the dipstick.
As with fuel economy, oil consumption is
directly influenced by your driving style and
vehicle operating conditions.
The oil volume between the two marks on
the dipstick ("MIN", "MAX") corresponds to
approx. 1.1 quarts (1 liter). Do not fill
beyond the upper notch on the dipstick.
Excess oil will damage the engine.
