ENGINE OIL
Checking engine oil
Check the oil level a few minutes (about 5) after the engine has stopped,
with the car parked on level ground.
Check that the level is within the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick.
The interval between the MIN and MAX marks corresponds to about
one litre of oil.
Topping up engine oil
If the oil level is near or even below the MIN mark, add oil through the
filler neck, until reaching the MAX mark. Oil level shall never exceed the
MAX mark.
IMPORTANT If a routine check reveals that the oil level is above the
MAX mark, contact Fiat Dealership to have the correct level restored.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing the oil, let the engine turn over
for a few seconds and wait a few minutes after turning it off before you
check the level.
