Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption is
usually 400 grams every 1000 km.
When the car is new, the engine needs
to run in, therefore the engine oil con-
sumption can only be considered stabilised
after the first 5,000 ÷ 6,000 km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption de-
pends on driving style and the conditions
under which the car is used.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing
the oil, let the engine turn over for a few
seconds and wait a few minutes after turn-
ing it off before you check the level. ENGINE OIL fig.1
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with the
car parked on level ground.
The oil level shall be included between the
MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick B.
The range between the MIN and MAX
levels corresponds to approximately 1
litre of oil.
If the oil level is near or even under the
MIN line, add oil through the filler Ato
reach the MAX line.
Oil level shall never exceed the MAX line.
Proceed very carefully inside
the engine compartment
when the engine is hot: risk of burns.
Remember that the fan may start up
if the engine is hot: risk of injury. Pay
attention to scarves, ties and other
loose fitting garments: they might get
caught by moving components.
WARNING
Don’t add any oil having dif-
ferent characteristics from
those of the existing engine oil.
The exhausted engine oil and
the replaced oil filter contain
substances that may be dan-
gerous for the environment. It
is advisable to have oil and filters
changed by a Abarth Dealership where
they will be disposed of according to
the law.
