Pouring oil: when topping up the oil level, take care that oil does not spill onto engine components, as this may cause a fire. Do not forget to tighten the cap properly, otherwise there is also a risk of fire if oil particles get onto hot engine parts.

Do not run the engine in an enclosed space; exhaust fumes are poisonous.

When carrying out work near the engine, remember that it may be hot. In addition, the radiator fan may switch on at any time. Risk of injury. Engine oil change: When changing the oil on a hot engine there is a risk of burns from escaping oil. If you notice an excessive or repeated drop in level, contact an Authorised Brand Partner.
