Check the back of your owners manual but it should take 8 liters (8.5 qts). Check the level on the dipstick with the engine warm. Shut off the engine and wait at least 5 minutes. It may be hard to read if the oil is new. Try laying the measuring portion on a piece of white paper towel. Judge the level by the stain on the towel. If it is high you need to take some oil out until the level is no more than the maximum with engine warm.

That sounds like too much. Ditto to Richard about checking the level. If you have a 2000+ car you can also check it with the steering wheel buttons. Have you seen a message REDUCE OIL LEVEL? My car tells me that if the level is too high.
