4. Remove the oil filler cap.
5. Top up the engine oil.
For the engine oil specifications, see chapter .
Do not fill the engine oil above the "MAX" mark.
6. Check the engine oil level after 5 minutes.
Top up the engine oil if necessary.

12.7.11Changing the engine oil and engine oil filter

DANGER
Risk of burns from hot engine oil!
Allow the vehicle to cool down long enough so that there is
no longer a risk of burns from hot engine oil and the engine
oil filter.
Note
A warm engine facilitates the draining of engine oil.
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Provide a catch pan for at least 10 litres of oil.
3. Switch off the engine.
4. Remove the oil filler cap.
5. Unscrew the oil drain plug.
6. Drain the engine oil.
7. Unscrew the engine oil filter.
8. Clean the mount and sealing surface.
9. Coat the seal of the new engine oil filter with oil.
10.Screw in the new engine oil filter and manually tighten
it sufficiently.
11.Renew the sealing ring for the oil drain plug and tighten
the oil drain plug to 60 Nm.
12.Pour in the engine oil.
For the fill volume and oil grade, see chapter .
13.Close the oil filler cap.
14.Allow the engine to run for approx. 30 seconds.
15.Wait at least 5 minutes.
16.Check the engine oil level.
Top up the engine oil if necessary.
17.Check the tightness of the sealing ring and engine oil fil-
ter.
18.Dispose of waste oil in an environmentally friendly man-
ner (collection points).

12.7.12Bleeding the fuel system

Note
If the fuel tank was run empty or the fuel filter was
changed, then the fuel system must be bled.
1. Make sure that the fuel tank is filled.
2. Turn the ignition key for 2 to 5 minutes in position I until
the fuel pump audibly runs quietly.

12.7.14Checking the coolant level and topping up the
coolant
CAUTION
Risk of burns due to hot components
Do not touch any parts of the cooling system when the en-
gine is hot. Open the cooling system only when the engine
is cold.
ATTENTION
Material damage due to incorrect coolant
Top up the coolant only when the engine is cold.
Use the water frost protection mixture.
Do not mix the antifreeze.
Only use soft or distilled water.
For the coolant, see chapter .
Note
Check the filling level when the engine is cold.
When the engine is warm, the coolant level could also be
just over the upper mark.
