How to Check the Engine Oil Level in Zotye Z700?
2 Answers
After the Zotye Z700 engine is turned off, let it sit level for 15 minutes, then check the oil dipstick. By observing the oil adhesion on the dipstick, if the oil level is between the lower and upper limits, it indicates the optimal position, meaning the engine oil quantity is appropriate. Detailed steps are as follows: 1. Locate the oil dipstick handle in the engine compartment and prepare a tissue; 2. Pull out the dipstick, use the tissue to wipe the dipstick head clean. You can also see the scale positions on the dipstick (usually the lower and upper limits); 3. Reinsert the cleaned dipstick, then pull it out again. This time, observe the oil adhered to the end of the dipstick; 4. By observing the oil adhesion on the dipstick, you can determine the highest oil level in the engine.
Checking the oil level on the Zotye Z700 is something I'm quite familiar with. First, you need to park the car on a completely level surface, otherwise the reading won't be accurate. Wait about ten minutes until the engine cools down before doing this, as checking the oil level on a hot engine can lead to errors. After opening the hood, locate the dipstick with the small yellow handle and pull it straight out. Wipe off the old oil residue with a clean cloth or paper towel, then reinsert it fully and wait a few seconds. Pull it out again and carefully observe where the oil level sits—it should be between the two marked lines: MIN is the minimum line, and MAX is the maximum line. If the level is low, add some fresh oil, preferably the type recommended by the manufacturer. Avoid pouring too much at once to prevent overflow or engine damage. I make it a habit to check monthly like this, which helps prevent overheating or wear due to insufficient oil and extends the car's lifespan.
