Checking oil level: Your car is equipped with an electronic oil level monitor. The oil level can be displayed when the engine is warm. Continuous short distance travel or a very sporty driving style may make measurement impossible. A new measurement is taken automatically each time the engine is started. Delay time: This can take about 1 minute if the car is at a standstill on a level surface, or about 5 minutes while the car is moving. If engine oil was added, it may take up to 30 minutes to obtain an oil level reading. Min Oil: Add engine oil at the next opportunity, but no more than 1 US quart/1 liter. Add at least 0.5 US quarts/0.5 liters, otherwise the oil level monitor will be unable to display the new value reliably.
