Kia Cee'd: Warnings and indicators (Instrument cluster) / Engine oil level warning light

The engine oil level warning light illuminates when the engine oil level should be checked.

If the warning light comes on, check the engine oil level as soon as possible and add engine oil as required.

Slowly pour the recommended oil little by little into a funnel. (Oil refill capacity : approximately 0.6 ~ 1.0 l)

Use only the specified engine oil. (Refer to "Recommended lubricants and capacities" in chapter 8.)

Do not overfill the engine oil to ensure the oil level is not above F mark on the dipstick.

✽ NOTICE

• If you travel approximately 50 km~100 km after the engine warms up, after adding the engine oil, the warning light will go off.
• Cycle the ignition from OFF to ON 3 times within 10 seconds, the warning light will go off immediately. However, when you turn off the warning light without adding the engine oil, the light will come on again after traveling approximately 50 km ~ 100 km after the engine warms up.

CAUTION

If the light comes on continuously after adding the engine oil and traveling approximately 50 km~100 km after the engine warms up, we recommend that the system be checked by an authorized Kia dealer.

Even if this light doesn't come on after the engine has started, the engine oil should be checked and supplied periodically.
