    the oil filler cap is on the top of the engine block to the left. the dipstick for the oil is the red ring to the left of the engine.

    look up how do do an oil top up on google.

    re: topping up the coolant, there is a resevoir to the right hand side of the engine bay at the front, if you look at the back of the tank there are MIN and MAX markings on it, these can be hard enough to make out. If you don't need to top up too much, water will do.

    The oil should be checked redulerly as the light doesnt come on until the damage is nearly done,
    The coolant can be topped up with water once there is already some antifreeze gone in. Mixing colors doesnt matter.
