Checking the oil level
The oil level should be checked every time the car is refueled. This is especially important during the period up to the
first service.
CAUTION:
Not checking the oil level regularly can result in serious engine damage if the oil level becomes too low.
Park the car on a level surface and wait for at least 5 minutes after the engine has been switched off. Be sure the oil
level is maintained between the upper and lower marks on the dipstick. Low oil level can cause internal damage to
the engine and overfilling can result in high oil consumption. The distance between the dipstick marks represents
approx. 1.6 US qt (1.5 liter). The oil should preferably be checked when cold, before the engine has been started.
NOTE: The engine must be stopped when checking the oil.
WARNING!
Do not allow oil to spill onto or come into contact with hot exhaust pipe surfaces.
Adding oil (topping up)
Add oil of the same kind as already used.
Capacity (including filter): Normally- aspirated 5- cylinder engine - 5.8 US qts (5.5 liters). Turbo 5- cylinder
