Normally it will ask only when you need add 1 litre, I never do that, I always top up level by myself gradually

Yeah it does - I have had it twice already it seems every 1500 - 2000 miles it needs it.

I did ask dealer - I drive mostly fast back roads and under aggressive driving it's not uncommon to top up oil more often.
