Electronic oil measurement
General
Electronic oil measurement has two measure‐
ment principles:
▷ Monitoring.
▷ Detailed measurement.
When frequently making short trips or using a
dynamic driving style, for example taking corners
at high speed, regularly perform a detailed meas‐
urement.
Monitoring
Principle
The engine oil level is electronically monitored
during the journey and can be shown on the
Control Display.
If the engine oil level is outside its permissible
operating range, a Check Control message is
shown.
Operating requirements
A current measurement is available after approxi‐
mately 30 minutes of normal driving.

System limits
When frequently making short trips or using a
dynamic driving style, it may not be possible to
calculate a measurement. In this case, the meas‐
urement for the last, sufficiently long journey is
displayed.
Detailed measurement
Principle
The engine oil level is checked when the vehicle
is stationary and is shown on a scale.
If the engine oil level is outside its permissible
operating range, a Check Control message is
shown.
General

slightly raised.
Operating requirements
