Oil level is checked щупом, placed on the forward party of a motor compartment directly ahead of connection of the engine with a transmission. The top щупа has bright colouring.

2. Idling the engine at the tightened manual and foot brake move the selector handle on all positions and return to position «Р» (Park). In this position of the selector check up oil level. It should be between bottom (and top (b) marks.

3. If oil level low add it through an aperture for щупа. The note. Never suppose, that oil level was more than the top mark.

4. Then make a trial trip and check up level once again.

5. Always support oil level between two marks щупа. Shortage of oil can lead to serious breakages of a transmission.

6. If there is a necessity often to add oil then leak which is necessary for finding and eliminating takes place until it has not led to serious consequences.
