The engine of the vehicle in question does not have a dipstick for checking the engine oil level but is equipped with an electronic sensor, and the level is checked through the onboard computer menu: therefore, turn on the ignition and, using the buttons on the steering wheel, select the engine oil level check function; after a few seconds, you will receive a response regarding the level status with an indication of the amount of oil to add to restore the maximum level; then proceed to top up, first assessing the remaining mileage until the next service: if only a few miles are left, it is advisable to change the oil rather than top it up.
