How may you check the oil level on a Mercedes Benz SL 500?

To check the oil level on a Mercedes-Benz SL 500, first ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and the engine is off. Open the hood and locate the oil dipstick, which is usually marked with a yellow or orange handle. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean with a cloth, reinsert it fully, and then remove it again to check the oil level on the markings. The oil should be between the minimum and maximum marks; if it's low, you may need to add oil.
