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.

TYRE PRESSURE KIT (2/3)
In the event of a puncture, use the kit which is located under the luggage compartment carpet on equipped ve-
hicles: open the kit, remove the caps 1
and 4 (it is essential not to remove the bursting disc from the bottle) and screw
bottle 2 in place of cap 4.
Do not pull out the foreign body causing the puncture if it is still in the tyre.
With the ignition on,
– adapter
8 must be connected to ve-
hicle accessories socket 9;
– unscrew the valve cap of the wheel
concerned and screw on the inflation
adapter 6;
– press switch
3 to inflate the tyre to the recommended pressure (refer to the information on “Tyre pressure”);
– after a maximum of
7 minutes, stop inflating and read the pressure (on
the pressure gauge 5).
Note: while the bottle is emptying (ap- proximately 30 seconds), the pressure
gauge 5 will indicate briefly a pressure of 6 bar, then the pressure drops.

Tyre and wheel safety
The tyres are the only contact between the vehicle and the road, so it is essen- tial to keep them in good condition.
You must make sure that your tyres con- form to local road traffic regulations.
When the tyre tread has been worn to the level of the warning strips, they become visible 2: it is then neces- sary to replace your tyres because the tread rubber is now only 1.6 mm deep at most, resulting in poor road hold- ing on wet roads.
An overloaded vehicle, long journeys by motorway, particularly in very hot weather, or continual driving on poorly surfaced minor roads will lead to more rapid tyre wear and affect safety.
Tyres (tyre and wheel safety, use in winter)
Maintaining the tyres
The tyres must be in good condition and the tread form must have sufficient depth; tyres approved by our Technical D e p a r t m e n t h a v e w e a r w a r n i n g strips 1 which are indicators moulded into the tread at several points.
TYRES (1/3)

2
When they need to be re- placed, only tyres of the same make, size, type and profile should be used.
Tyres fitted to the vehicle should either be identical to those fitted originally or conform to those recommended by your approved dealer.
Incidents which occur when
driving, such as striking the kerb, may damage the tyres and wheel rims, and could also lead to misalignment of the front or rear axle geometry. In this case, have the condition of these checked by an approved dealer.

Snow or Winter tyres
We would recommend that these be fitted to all four wheels to ensure that your vehicle retains maximum road holding.
Warning: These tyres sometimes have a specific direction of rotation and a maximum speed index which may be lower than the maximum speed of your vehicle.
Use in winter
Chains
For safety reasons, fitting snow chains to the rear axle is strictly for- bidden.
Chains cannot be fitted to tyres which are larger than those originally fitted to the vehicle.

If you wish to fit studded tyres, you must use special equip- ment.
Consult an approved dealer.
TYRES (3/3)
Studded tyres
This type of equipment may only be used for a limited period and as laid down by local legislation.
It is necessary to observe the speed specified by current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be fitted to the two front wheels.
Chains may only be fitted to tyres of the same size as those originally fitted to your vehicle.
In all cases, we would recommend that you contact an approved dealer who will be able to advise you on the choice of equipment which is most suitable for your vehicle.

– weak or dead battery.
Recharge or replace the battery.
The engine overheats. The coolant tem- perature warning light comes on (or the indicator needle is in the red area).
Coolant pump: belt stretched or broken.Engine cooling fan not working.Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and contact an approved Dealer.
Coolant leaks.Check the condition of hoses and clips.
Check the coolant reservoir: it should contain fluid. If it does not, top it up (once it has cooled). Take care not to scald yourself. This action is only temporary; consult your approved Dealer as soon as possible.
OPERATING FAULTS (6/8)
Radiator: If there is a significant lack of coolant, remember that it must never be topped up using cold coolant while the engine is very warm. After any procedure on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling system, it must be refilled with a new mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved by our Technical Department may be used for this purpose.
