recommended that a funnel be used
when topping up/filling with oil.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL: topping up, filling (3/3)/OIL CHANGE
Engine oil change: if you
are changing the oil when
the engine is hot, be careful
not to scald yourself if the
oil overflows.
Filling: take care when
topping up the oil that
no oil drips onto engine
components - risk of fire.
Remember to refit the cap securely
as there is a risk of fire if oil splashes
onto hot engine components.
Never run the engine in an
enclosed space as exhaust
gases are poisonous.
