Carry out the steps in the specified order :
With the engine at operating temperature, park the vehicle on a level surface to ensure that the engine oil reading is correct.
Switch off the engine and wait a few minutes for the engine oil to flow back into the sump.

Identify the engine oil filler cap and oil dipstick. The engine oil filler opening bears the symbol on the cap and the oil dipstick has a coloured handle. If you cannot find the cap and dipstick please contact a qualified workshop.
Pull the dipstick out of the guide tube and wipe it off with a clean cloth.
Insert the oil dipstick into the guide tube again as far as it will go. If there is a marking on the oil dipstick, this marking must fit in the corresponding groove at the top end of the guide tube when inserting.
After reading the oil level, push the oil dipstick back into the guide tube as far as it will go.
Unscrew the engine oil filler opening cap .
Using only the engine oil approved by Volkswagen expressly for this engine, top up the oil in small gradual amounts (no more than 0.5 l).

Read the engine oil level from the dipstick again before refilling with a further small quantity of engine oil. Never overfill engine oil .
After the refilling procedure, the engine oil level should be at least in the centre of area Ⓑ , but never above area Ⓐ .
After refilling, screw the engine oil filler cap back on correctly.
