As been said above. Check your dipstick. Its the most accurate way of knowing how much oil is in the engine after all it is why its there.

let the oil settle down for 5mins after its been run, then recheck the oil on the dipstick, if its still not up to maximum, put a bit more in, then re-check after a couple of minutes, repeat this until its at MAX, dont think they take more than 4 litres.

I just pour the oil in and check the level on the dip stick. Never use measurements
