About the three types of oil changes

Hello?
When I measured the engine oil in the Grenadier vehicle information,

I got two results, "Level On-Road" and "Level Off-Road".

I'm curious about the difference between these two.

I measured at 5025Km and got the results "Level On-Road=ok", "Level Off-Road=Refill 500ml".

The user manual lists four types of oils: axle oil, transmission oil, transfer case oil, and engine oil,
but it doesn't tell me where each oil is used, and the "Level Off-Road=Refill 500ml" message in the measurement results
doesn't tell me which of the four oils it is.

Thanks a lot

When the chassis may be at extreme angles when off road, the engine oil level needs to be a bit higher than what is required on level ground, hence the higher amount of minimum oil.

Axle oil = differential oil

Transfer case oil = oil for that part of the transmission (transfer case) that shifts between H and L range.

ZF = Transmission fluid (ZF LifeGuard Fluid 8 )

engine oil depends on whether you have gas (petrol) or diesel engine. You can use any oil (BMW, Castrol, or third party that meets the specifications shown). The engine oil is measured and monitored by the computer and displayed on the screen as you have note for Level on and off road.

In the first 4000 miles I had to top off twice already due to this "Level Off-Road=Refill 500ml". However, I only added about 200ml, enough to pass the engine oil check.
