Checking engine oil level manually using dipstick

Hello, I hope to ask if you may know the right engine oil level for a 2005 C240 4 matic on the dipstick? I don't think the vehicle had a dipstick with it. I bought a compatible one on Amazon but I couldn't find the right information online to indicate the interval representing min to max. Appreciate your help! **the electronic way to check is not working and I can't spare the money to fix that for now :p**

I was looking thru W203 C240 engine parts diagrams and even though they do show a dipstick part 77 there is no part number listed.

If it were me and my car did not come with a dipstick and cannot locate the correct one for it I would do an oil change adding the proper amount of oil. Then use that aftermarket dipstick and record where the oil level shows on it.

Do you have the M112?
