I just had the opposite problem as you (meaning it's typical). I got the half-quart low warning, but having had some experience waited a few days to make sure it stayed there. It did, so I put in 1/4 quart to see how it changed.

No change... Odd, so a few days later put in a bit less than another 1/4 quart.

Still nothing. Waited a few more days, and presto - suddenly the oil level jumps up to full! The guys recommending you wait, and warning you about overfilling are right on.

Having an oil sensor with a dipstick would be useful - having an oil sensor without a dipstick is just a PITA.

Cheers
