• Unscrew and extract the cap-dipstick (1).
• Use a clean cloth to clean the part in contact with
the oil.
• Fully tighten the cap-dipstick (1) in the filling hole
(2).
• Extract the cap-dipstick (1) again and read the
level that oil reaches on the stick:
MAX = maximum level
MIN = minimum level
• The level is correct if it approximately reaches the
“MAX” level marked on the dipstick.
Do not go above the “MAX” marking or below the
“MIN” marking, as this could seriously damage
the engine.
• Top up if necessary.
TOPPING UP
• Add a small amount of oil through the filling hole
(2) and wait about a minute for the oil to flow
evenly within the half-case.
• Check the oil level, and top up if necessary.
• Top up with small amounts of oil until the pre-
scribed level is reached.
• When you have finished, tighten the cap-dipstick
(1).
