Check the oil level
When the engine is in the working
temperature, shut down the engine and
check the oil level by the oil level
dipstick.
1. To obtain the accurate reading，you
should park the car on flat ground.
Wait a few minutes after shutting
down the engine to let the oil
concentrate at the bottom of the
engine.
2. Pull out the oil level dipstick, place a
piece of cloth on its end and wipe it
clean.
3. Reinsert the oil level dipstick — try to
insert it as deeply as possible,
otherwise the reading will be
inaccurate.
4. Pull out the oil level dipstick, place a
piece of cloth on its end and check the
oil level.
Notice
 Please pay attention to not drip
the oil onto the parts of the car.
If the oil level is lower or slightly higher
than the Min oil level line, you should add
oil of the same type into the engine.
Remove the oil cover, add a small amount
of oil and check the oil level dipstick.
Repeat this process until the oil level is
close to the Max oil level line. We suggest
you to use funnel to add the oil.
After adding oil, the oil level shall be
between Min level line and Max level line
on the oil level dipstick.
When the oil level reaches the proper range,
please install the oil cover and screw it tight.
Notice
 Please pay attention to not drip
the oil onto the parts of the car.
 Avoid adding too much oil,
otherwise the engine will be
damaged.

please check again the oil level on the
oil level dipstick.
