NOTE: The manufacturer recommends using Ford/Motorcraft Formula E SAE 5W-30 oil. It is also permissible to use ACEA A1/B1 or ACEA A3/B3 quality oils of viscosity grade SAE 5W-30, SAE 5W-40 or 10W-40 (depending on climatic conditions).
WARNING: Before checking the oil level after driving, stop the engine and wait 5-10 minutes for the oil to drain into the crankcase.
WARNING: Top up with oil of the same brand, viscosity and quality class as the one previously used.
WARNING: The oil level in the engine crankcase must not exceed the "MAX" mark, otherwise leaks through gaskets and seals and increased oil consumption are possible.
WARNING: Check the level with the vehicle on a level surface.
The oil filler plug is located on the cylinder head cover. The oil level indicator (dipstick) is located on the left side of the cylinder block next to the intake manifold.
1. Remove the pointer (dipstick), wipe it with a clean cloth and reinsert it.
2. Remove the dipstick again. The oil film level should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks. If the oil level is close to or below the "MIN" mark, add oil.
3. To add oil, turn the oil filler cap counterclockwise…
4. …and take it off.
5. Fill the engine with oil, monitoring its level with the dipstick. Wait 2-3 minutes before removing the dipstick to allow the oil to drain into the crankcase.
6. Once the oil level reaches the required level, tighten the filler cap.
