Stranded in France

4 days ago, in France, I leased a late model Renault Sceneic 1.6ESS with about 24000m on it. So far I've driven it for less than 5 hours. The gas tank remains close to full, BUT a message suddenly appeared on the dash stating "niveau d'huile correct" which I understand as meaning that my oil level is low and needs correcting - especially since the oil icon - a thermometer- is smaller than when I leased the car.

The problem: I'm in a village of 200 people, one self-serve gas pump, I know almost nothing about cars, and I don't speak French,

Help, please...or as they say here: "Au secours!! S'il vous plait!!"
