The consumption of engine oil during the operation of the car is completely normal, so you should regularly check the oil level in the engine. Be sure to check the oil level before a long trip.
Engine oil consumption depends on driving style, climate and road conditions. Normal oil consumption can be up to 1 liter per 1000 kilometers. A non-run-in engine may consume slightly more.
RECOMMENDATION: Engine oil is essential for engine performance and durability. Use only high quality oil.
The manufacturer recommends the use of API SL oil with SAE 0W-30 viscosity grade or API SL SAE 0W-40 viscosity grade oil (depending on climatic conditions). At an outside air temperature of up to -25°C, it is permissible to use oils with a viscosity of 5W-30, 5W-40.
WARNINGS: Before checking the oil level after a trip, stop the engine and wait 5-10 minutes until the oil drains into the oil sump. Add oil of the same brand, viscosity and quality class as previously used.
The oil level in the engine crankcase must not exceed the maximum mark, otherwise leaks through gaskets and seals, as well as increased oil consumption, are possible. In addition, if the oil level is too high, the crankshaft counterweights are vigorously agitated and foam is formed. Foam that has entered the internal cavities of the oil pump disrupts its operation. Check the level with the vehicle on a level surface.
Oil level gauge A (oil dipstick) located at the front of the cylinder block. The oil filler plug B is located on the cylinder head cover.
1. Remove the oil level indicator (oil dipstick)...
2....wipe it with a clean cloth...
3....and put it back in place.
4. Remove the pointer again (probe). The oil film level must be between the lower (MIN) and top (MAX) labels. If the oil level approaches or falls below the lower mark, add oil.
NOTE: The MIN and MAX marks on the photo are applied conditionally. They are not on the oil level indicator, they correspond to the lower and upper risks, respectively.
5. To add oil, turn the oil filler cap counterclockwise...
6.... and remove it.
7. Insert a funnel into the oil filler neck and pour oil into the engine, monitoring its level by the indicator. Before removing the pointer, wait 2-3 minutes to allow the oil to drain into the crankcase.
8. After the oil level reaches the required level, tighten the filler cap.
