It is normal for an engine to use oil for
lubrication and cooling of moving parts
and it is sometimes necessary to top up
the level between oil changes.
However, contact an approved dealer if
more than 0.5 litres is being consumed
every 600 miles (1,000 km) after the
running in period.
Oil change frequency: check the oil
level from time to time and certainly
before any long journey to avoid the
risk of damaging your engine.
The vehicle must be parked on level
ground and the engine should have
been switched off for some time before-
hand to obtain an accurate reading.
