- Shut the engine off when it is at operating temperature.
- Switch only the ignition back on.
- Wait approx, two minutes.

control button > Servicing & checks > Oil level.
- Read the oil level in the radio or MMI Display
> fig. 198. Add engine oil if the bar of the oil
level indicator is near "Min".
The oil level needs to be checked at regular intervals.
The best times to do this are whenever you
refuel and prior to long trips.
Depending on the way the vehicle is driven and
the operating conditions, oil consumption can be
up to a 1/2 quart per 600 miles (0.5 liter per
1,000 km). Consumption may be higher within
the first 3,000 miles (5,000 km).
Tips
The oil level indicator in the radio or MMI
Display is only an information display. If the
oil level is too low, a minimum oil warning appears
in the instrument cluster. Add oil. If the hood has been opened,
the current oil level is shown in the instrument
cluster the next time the ignition is
switched on.
