3.Oil dipstick
IMPORTANT Failure to check the oil lev-
el regularly could lead to serious engine
trouble due to insufficient oil.REFILLING
Remove the oil filler cap and pour oil
slowly through the filler hole to bring the
oil level to the upper limit on the dipstick.
Be careful not to overfill. Too much oil is
almost as bad as too little oil. After refill-
ing, start the engine and allow it to idle for
about a minute. Stop the engine, wait
about 5 minutes and check the oil level
again. OIL LEVEL CHECK
It is important to keep the engine oil at the
correct level for proper lubrication of
your vehicle’s engine. Check the oil level
with the vehicle on a level surface. The oil
level indication may be inaccurate if the
vehicle is on a slope. The oil level should
be checked either before starting the en-
gine or at least 5 minutes after stopping
the engine.
The handle of the engine oil dipstick is col-
ored yellow for easy identification. Pull out
the oil dipstick, wipe oil off with a clean
cloth, insert the dipstick all the way into
the engine, then remove it again. The oil
on the stick should be between the upper
and lower limits shown on the stick. If the
oil level indication is near the lower limit,
add enough oil to raise the level to the up-
per limit.

Refill with Oil and Check for Leaks
❒Pour oil through the filler hole and in-
stall the filler cap.
For the approximate capacity of the oil,
refer to the “Capacities” item in the
“SPECIFICATIONS” section.
❒Start the engine and look carefully for
leaks at the oil filter and drain plug. Run
the engine at various speeds for at least
5 minutes.
❒Stop the engine and wait about 5 min-
utes. Check the oil level again and add
oil if necessary. Check for leaks again.
IMPORTANT
❒When replacing the oil filter, it is rec-
ommended that you use a genuine
Fiat replacement filter. If you use an af-
termarket filter, make sure it is of
equivalent quality and follow the man-
ufacturer’s instructions.
❒Oil leaks from around the oil filter or
drain plug indicate incorrect installation
or gasket damage. If you find any leaks
or are not sure that the filter has been
properly tightened, have the vehicle in-
spected by your Fiat Dealership.Transfer oil (4WD)

After driving the vehicle, the
gear oil temperature may be
high enough to burn you. Wait until
the oil filler plug is cool enough to
touch with your bare hands before in-
specting transaxle oil.
WARNING
GEAR OIL LEVEL CHECK
To check the gear oil level, use the fol-
lowing procedure:
❒Park the vehicle on a level surface with
the parking brake applied. Then, stop
the engine.
❒Remove the oil filler plug (1) or (2).
❒Feel the inside of the hole with your fin-
ger. If the oil level comes up to the bot-
tom of the plug hole, the oil level is cor-
rect. If so, reinstall the plug.
❒If the oil level is low, add gear oil
through the oil filler plug hole (1) or (2)
until the oil level reaches the bottom of
the filler hole, then reinstall the plug.
