7.If the oil level is below the specified
limit, remove the cap located on the cyl- inder 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 en-
gine 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.
Use only the recommended oils with an ACEA or API classification as specified in
this manual.NOTEl For 3200 models, check or refill the oil ac-
cording to the following manner.
• When the oil level is checked in step 6
above, check it on a low side of the dip-
stick because it is different in appearance
of oil level in the two sides of the dip-
stick.
• The oil level should be within the range
(A) to (C) (oil replacement indication
mark) on the dipstick.
If the oil level is beyond the oil replace- ment indication mark (C), replace the oil
as soon as possible.
Then, the oil should be refilled to the maximum level (B).NOTE• The engine oil will increase due to a little
fuel getting mixed in the engine oil when the DPF regenerates to burn away the PM
(particulate matter). It does not indicate a
malfunction.
In the following conditions, the engine oil level may increase easily. We recommendyou to have it checked frequently.
• frequent driving at uphill and downhill
• 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.
