ENGINE OIL LEVEL
ENGINE OIL TOP-UP
Remove the oil filler cap and pour
oil slowly through the filler hole to
bring the oil level to the upper limit
on the dipstick. Be careful not to
overfill. Too much oil is almost as
bad as too little oil. After refilling, start
the engine and allow it to idle for
about a minute. Stop the engine; let
the oil settle and check oil level
again.
Engine oil level should be checked
when engine is cold. Allow at least
30 mins. for engine oil to settle before
checking oil level.
1. For checking engine oil level,
pull out the dipstick from the
engine oil case, wipe it clean with
a cloth or a paper napkin.
2. Insert it again to its original
position.
3. Pull out the dipstick again and
observe the oil level on the
dipstick.
4. If the oil level is below the mid
point of min. and max. marks, top
up using recommended grade of
oil.
NOTE
Oil level should not exceed the
max. Mark. Always check the oil
level when the car is on a level
ground and the engine in cold
condition.
Check the engine oil level if “low oil
pressure” warning comes 'ON' while
driving. Failure to check the oil level
1. Engine Filling Cap 2. Dip Stick
regularly could lead to serious
trouble due to insufficient oil.
