BONNET (2/2)
Closing the bonnet
Check that nothing has been left in the
engine compartment.
To close the bonnet again, hold the
bonnet in the middle and lower it to
30
c

m above the closed position, then
release it. It will latch automatically
under its own weight.
Ensure that the bonnet is
properly locked. Check that
nothing is preventing the
catch from locking (gravel,
cloth, etc.).
Make sure nothing is left
in the engine compartment
(cloth, tools, etc.).
Otherwise, this may lead to
engine damage or cause a fire.

It is normal for an engine to use oil for
lubrication and cooling of moving parts
and it is sometimes necessary to top up
the level between oil changes.
However, contact an approved dealer if
more than 0.5 litres is being consumed
every 600 miles (1,000 km) after the
running in period.
Oil change frequency: check the oil
level from time to time and certainly
before any long journey to avoid the
risk of damaging your engine.
The vehicle must be parked on level
ground and the engine should have
been switched off for some time before-
hand to obtain an accurate reading.
Engine oil level: general information
ENGINE OIL LEVEL: general information
Reading the oil level
– remove the dipstick and wipe with a clean, lint-free cloth;
–

p
ush the dipstick in as far as it will
go (for vehicles equipped with a cap-
type dipstick
C, screw the cap in as
far as it will go);
–

take out the dipstick again;
–


r
ead the level: it should never fall
below minimum mark
A

or exceed
maximum mark
B.
Once the operation has been com-
pleted, ensure that the dipstick is
pushed in as far as it will go or that the
cap-type dipstick is completely screwed
in.
Under no circumstances
must maximum fill level
A be exceeded: risk of
damage to the engine and
catalytic converter.
Consult your approved dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
Exceeding the maximum engine
oil level
The oil level should only be read with
the dipstick as explained above.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum
level, do not start your vehicle and
contact an approved dealer.

Engine oil level: topping up, filling
ENGINE OIL LEVEL: topping up/filling (1/2)
Topping up/filling
The vehicle must be parked on level
ground and the engine should be cold
(for instance, before the engine is
started up for the first time in the day).
Engine oil grade
Refer to the Maintenance Service
Booklet for your vehicle. –

Unscrew cap
1;
–
top
up the level (as a guide, the ca-
pacity between the minimum and
maximum reading on dipstick
2
is
between 1.5 and 2 litres, depending
on the engine);
–
w
ait approximately 10 minutes to
allow the oil to flow into the engine;
– c heck the level using the dipstick 2
(as described above).
Once the operation has been com-
pleted, ensure that the dipstick is
pushed in as far as it will go or that
the “cap-type dipstick” is completely
screwed in.
Do not exceed the MAX level and
do not forget to refit dipstick 2
and
cap
1.
In order to prevent splashback, it is
recommended that a funnel be used
when topping up/filling with oil.

Engine oil grade
Refer to the Maintenance Service
Booklet for your vehicle.
Filling: take care when
topping up the oil that
no oil drips onto engine
components - risk of fire.
Remember to refit the cap securely
as there is a risk of fire if oil splashes
onto hot engine components.
Engine oil change: if you
are changing the oil when
the engine is hot, be careful
not to scald yourself if the
oil overflows.
Never run the engine in an
enclosed space as exhaust
gases are poisonous.
The engine may be hot
during operations in close
proximity. In addition, the
engine cooling fan may
come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
If there is an abnormal or repeated
drop in the fluid level, please consult
an authorised dealer.
Resetting the alert after an oil
change
(depending on the vehicle)
If you change the oil yourself, you will
need to reset the oil change warning.
To do this, after switching on the igni-
tion, for ten seconds you must:
–

Depress the accelerator pedal fully
,
–

with
your foot on the accelerator, de-
press the brake pedal three times in
succession.
Reinitialisation is complete when the
# indicator light goes out. If this is
not the case, repeat the operation.
Special case : if you change the oil
before the oil change interval exceeded
warning is displayed, it will also be nec-
essary to reset the display. In this case,
the
# warning light comes on for
approximately 5 seconds to confirm the
reset.
