Variant 1Variant 2Interpretation of messages
25302Message 1“Oil level OK”
The message “oil” is
displayed, alternating
with dashes
No displayMessage 2“Adjust oil level”
If the level is at minimum: depending on the vehicle, the message “top up oil level” or “oil” appears on the display, al-
ternating with dashes and the © warning light on the instrument panel comes on: message 2.
It is vital to top up the oil as soon as possible.
Engine oil level: general information
The display only warns the driver if the oil level is at the minimum level. It does not inform the driver that the oil level has exceeded the maximum level as this can only be measured
using a dipstick.
Minimum oil level warning on instru- ment panel
When the ignition is switched on, if the level is above the minimum level, the message “oil ok” or “oil level correct” is shown on the display for approximately 15 seconds.For more information, press the trip computer readout button: the message
“oil level” will be shown on the display with squares which are replaced by dashes when the level drops.
To advance to trip computer reading, press the button again.
It is normal for an engine to use oil for lubrication and cooling of moving parts and it is normal to top up the level be- tween oil changes.
However, contact your approved Dealer if more than 0.5 litres is being consumed every 600 miles (1,000 km) after the running in period.
Check the oil level at regular inter- vals and before any long journey to avoid the risk of damaging your engine.
Reading the oil level
The oil level should be read with the ve- hicle on level ground, after the engine has been switched off for some time.
The dipstick must be used to read the exact oil level and make sure that the maximum level has not been exceeded (risk of engine damage). Refer to the following pages.
The instrument panel display only alerts the driver when the oil level is at its min- imum.

It is normal for the level to drop as the brake shoes become worn, but it must never drop lower than the “MINI" warn- ing line.
If you wish to check the disc and drum wear yourself, you should obtain the document explaining the checking pro- cedure from the manufacturer ’s net- work or web site.
Topping up
After any operation on the hydraulic cir- cuit, a specialist must replace the brake fluid.
Only use fluids approved by our Technical Department (and taken from a sealed container).
Replacement interval
Refer to the Maintenance Service Booklet for your vehicle.
Brake fluid level
The level should be read with the engine switched off and on level ground.
This should be checked frequently, and immediately if you notice even the slightest loss in braking efficiency.

Bodywork maintenance
BODyWORK MAINTENANCE (1/2)
– Use solvents not approved by our Technical Department to remove stains as this could damage the paintwork.
– Drive frequently in snow or muddy
conditions without washing the ve- hicle, particularly under the wheel arches and body.
you should not:
– Degrease or clean mechanical com- ponents (e.g. the engine compart- ment), underneath the body, parts with hinges (e.g. inside the fuel tank flap) and painted plastic external fit- tings (e.g. bumpers) using high-pres- sure cleaning equipment or by spray- ing on products not approved by our Technical Department. If adequate precautions are not taken, this could give rise to corrosion or operational faults.
– Wash the vehicle in bright sunlight or
freezing temperatures.
– Scrape off mud or dirt without pre
- wetting.
– Allow dirt to accumulate.
– Allow rust to form following minor im
- pacts.
protection against the effects
of corrosive agents
Although your vehicle has been treated with very effective anti-corrosion prod- ucts, it nevertheless remains subject to the effects of:
– corrosives in the atmosphere
– atmospheric pollution (urban and
industrial areas),
– saline atmospheres (near the
sea, particularly in hot weather),
– seasonal and damp climatic con
- ditions, (e.g.: road salt in winter, water from road cleaners, etc.).
– abrasives
Wind-borne dust and sand, mud, road grit thrown up by other vehi- cles, etc.
– minor impacts
You should take a minimum number of precautions in order to safeguard your vehicle against such risks and not to lose the benefit of your vehicle’s anti- corrosion protection.

– Before going through a roller type car wash, return the windscreen wiper stalk to the Park position (refer to the information on the “Windscreen wash/wipe” in Section 1). Check the mounting of external accessories, additional lights and mirrors, and ensure that the wiper blades are se- cured with adhesive tape.
Remove the radio aerial mast if your vehicle is fitted with this equipment.
Remember to remove the tape and refit the antenna after washing.
– Spray mechanical components,
hinges, etc. with products approved by our Technical Department to protect them after they have been cleaned.
BODyWORK MAINTENANCE (2/2)
We have selected special products to care for your vehicle and you can obtain these from the manufactur- er’s accessory outlets.
– Observe the vehicle stopping dis- tances when driving on gravelled surfaces to prevent paint damage.
– Repair, or have repaired quickly,
areas where the paint has been dam- aged, to prevent corrosion spread- ing.
– Remember to visit the body shop
periodically if your vehicle has an anti-corrosion warranty. Refer to the Maintenance Service Booklet.
– Respect local regulations about

washing vehicles (e.g. do not wash your vehicle on a public highway).
you should
– Wash your car frequently, with the engine off, with cleaning products recommended by our Technical Department (never use abrasive products) and be sure to jet-rinse off:
– spots of tree resin and industrial
grime;
–
bird droppings, which cause a chemical reaction with the paint that rapidly discolours paint- work and may even cause the paint to peel off; Wash the vehicle immediately to remove these marks since it is impossible to remove them by polishing;
– salt, particularly in the wheel
arches and underneath the body after driving in areas where the roads have been gritted;
– mud in the wheel arches and un
- derneath the body which form damp patches.
