Engine Oil Level Checking

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.

NOTICE

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

regularly could lead toserious troubledue to insufficient

oil.

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.
