No he means liters (philippines). And yes add more just so long as the oil is between the first and second line. You check you oil after it has had a chance to circulate.

just checked my oil after running the car. The oil is now EXACTLY on the 2nd line of the dipstick. That should be OK , right? All in all I used 4.2 liters of shell HELIX ultra 5W50 fully synthetic oil.
