The engine oil used has a significant effect on
the engine’s performance, service life and
startability. Be sure to use oil of the recom-
mended quality and appropriate viscosity.
All engines consume a certain amount of oil
during normal operation. Therefore, it is
important to check the oil level at regular
intervals or before starting a long trip.
1. Park the vehicle on a horizontal surface.
2. Switch off the engine.
3. Wait a few minutes.
4. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a
clean cloth.
5. Reinsert the dipstick as far as it goes.
6. Remove the dipstick and read the oil
level, which should always be within the
range indicated
7. If the oil level is below the specified limit,
remove the cap located on the cylinder
head cover and add enough oil to raise the
level to within the specified range. Do not
overfill to avoid engine damage. Be sure
to use the specified engine oil and do not
mix various types of oil.
8. After adding oil, close the cap securely.
9. Confirm the oil level by repeating step 4
to 6.
Select engine oil of the proper SAE vis-
cosity number according to the atmos-
pheric temperature.
SAE 0W-20, 0W-30, 5W-20, 5W-30, and
5W-40 engine oils can only be used if
they meet ACEA A3/B3, A3/B4 or A5/B5
and API SG (or higher) specifications.
Use engine oil conforming to the follow-
ing classification:
• API classification: “For service SG” or
higher
• ILSAC certificated oil
• ACEA classification:
“For service A1/B1, A3/B3, A3/B4, or
A5/B5”

The engine oil will deteriorate rapidly if the
vehicle is subjected to severe conditions,
requiring earlier oil replacement.
