Check
This operation must be carried out with the engine
cold and following the procedure below:
1) Rest the vehicle on the central stand and on a flat ground.
2) Unscrew the cap/dipstick " A ", dry it with a clean cloth and reinsert it, screwing it thoroughly .
3) Remove the cap/dipstick again and check that the level is between the max. and min levels; top-up,
if required.
Topping up from the MIN to MAX. level requires around 1700 cc.
If the check is carried out after the vehicle has been used, and therefore with a hot engine, the level
line will be lower; in order to carry out a correct check it is necessary to wait at least 10 minutes after
the engine has been stopped, so as to get the correct level.
Oil top up
The oil should be topped up after having checked the level and in any case by adding oil without ever
exceeding the MAX. level .
The restoration level between the MIN and MAX levels implies a quantity of oil of approx. 400 cc .
Engine oil filter

POSED OF ACCORDING TO THE REGULATIONS IN FORCE.
