increase due to a little fuel getting mixed
in the engine oil when the DPF regener- ates to burn away the PM (particulate
matter). However, it does not indicate a
malfunction.
• The engine oil level will be increased due
to an amount of the fuel being mixed in
the engine oil when the DPF regenerates
to burn away the PM (particulate matter). It does not indicate a malfunction.

•frequent driving at uphill and down-
hill
• frequent driving at high altitudes
• frequent and extended idling
• frequent driving through a traffic
jam
l The engine oil will deteriorate rapidly if the
vehicle is subjected to severe conditions, re- quiring earlier oil replacement. Please refer
to the maintenance schedule.

cosity number according to the atmos-pheric temperature.
