Learn how to check the oil level on a Fiat Ducato: open the front bonnet and locate the dipstick with a brightly coloured handle. Remove the dipstick and clean it with a cloth or paper towel, then reinsert it into its housing, remove it again, and read the level: the correct level is just below the "max". If it is below "min", you must immediately add oil. The filler cap is marked with a sort of "Aladdin's lamp" that unscrews counterclockwise; add a little oil at a time, measuring frequently.

It is essential never to exceed the "max" level, as excess oil can cause serious engine damage. Also, check the coolant level and clean the drainage grilles of leaves and debris.
