Default 2013 S60 T6 oil level low warning

Hi, Fortunately there is a oil level stick to check the oil level but, my dashboard says: Oil level low, which is NOT true.I always use Castrol Edge oil. So my questions are: How to disable that warning and where is that sensor and is it easy to remove it, disconnected it? I really don't need that sensor since I check oil level regularly with a stick. Thanks for any input.

Sensor is mounted in the bottom of the oil pan - you will see it. And if removed drains the oil.

Default annoying sensors

OK, because that sensor costs about $400 CAD which is ridicules since there is a dipstick, I am going to disconnect it. Will I not be seeing another message like: "Low oil sensor missing". If disconnecting sensors won't trigger any other messages I will do the same with another very annoying sensor :" Engine hood open" and red triangle. S600 has two hood latches so for me it is practically impossible for both latches to fail especially when hood is flush with the body after closing....
