Engine oil level display(for versions/markets, where provided)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON the display shows, for a
few seconds, the engine oil level. In case of insufficient engine oil level,
a warning message appears on the display.
IMPORTANT To find out the correct engine oil quantity, always check
using the dipstick (see paragraph “Checking levels” in the section
“Maintenance and care”).
IMPORTANT For a correct engine oil level indication, perform the
check with the car parked on a level surface.
IMPORTANT To perform the engine oil reading correctly, after turning
the key to MAR-ON, wait for about 2 seconds before starting the
engine.
IMPORTANT The engine oil level may increase after a long stop.
