2007 Abarth Grande Punto check oil

ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION
Max engine oil consumption is usually 400
grams every 1000 km.
When the car is new, the engine needs
to run in, therefore the engine oil con-
sumption can only be considered stabilised
after the first 5,000 ÷ 6,000 km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption de-
pends on driving style and the conditions
under which the car is used.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing
the oil, let the engine turn over for a few
seconds and wait a few minutes after turn-
ing it off before you check the level. ENGINE OIL fig. 2
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with the
car parked on level ground.
The oil level shall be included between the
MINand MAXmarks on the dipstick B.
The gap between the MINand MAX
marks corresponds to about one litre of
oil.
If the oil level is near or even below the
MINmark, add oil through the filler neck
A, until reaching the MAXmark.
Oil level shall never exceed the MAX
mark.
When the engine is hot, take
care when working inside the
engine compartment to avoid burns.
Remember that when the engine is
hot, fan may cut in: danger of injury.
Scarves, ties and other loose cloth-
ing might be pulled by moving parts.

CLEANING SEATS AND FABRIC
AND VELVET PARTS
Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to re-
move dust. Velvet is cleaned better if the
brush is moistened.
Rub the seats with a sponge moistened
with a solution of water and neutral de-
tergent.
Never use flammable prod-
ucts like oil ether or rectified
petrol for cleaning car interiors. Elec-
trostatic discharges generated by rub-
bing during cleaning operations could
cause fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol cans in
the car: they might explode.
Aerosol cans must never be exposed
to a temperature above 50° C. The
temperature inside the car exposed
to the sun may go well beyond that
figure.
WARNINGINTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not trapped
under the mats (due to water dripping off
shoes, umbrellas, etc.) which could cause
oxidisation of the sheet metal.
