The front ring is located in the tool box
beneath the passenger side seat. On
versions with Fix&Go kit and without

only on request for versions/markets
where provided.
In the absence of the tool box the
vehicle front tow hook is housed in the
on-board documentation container,
together with the Owner Handbook.To use it, proceed as follows:
❒Open the flap A and remove it as
illustrated in fig. 232;
❒turn retaining knob B fig. 232
anticlockwise and remove it to allow
the box fig. 233 to come out;
❒take the screwdriver provided from
the box and prise up at the point
shown to raise the cap C fig. 235;
❒take the tow ring D from the box and
screw it onto the threaded pin fig.
235.
The rear ring B fig. 236 is located at the
point shown in the diagram.
WARNING
166) Screw on the tow hook and
check that it stops at the end
of travel position.
167) Before towing, switch off the
steering lock (see "Starting
device" paragraph under the
"Knowing your car" section).
168) Remember that the brake servo
and the electric power steering
are not available during towing
operations. Significantly greater
force must be exerted on the
brake pedal and on the steering
wheel to operate them.
169) Do not use flexible cables for
towing and avoid jerking. During
towing operations, make sure that
the fastened joint does not
damage adjoining components.

ENGINE OIL
47)
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with
the vehicle parked on level ground.
The oil level must be between the MIN
and MAX marks on the dipstick B
fig. 237 - fig. 238 - fig. 239.
The range between the MIN and MAX
marks corresponds to about 1 litre
of oil.
If the oil level is near or under the MIN
mark, add oil through the filler A fig. 237
- fig. 238 - fig. 239, until it reaches the
MAX mark.
The oil level must never exceed the
MAX mark.Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption
is usually 400 grams every 1000 km.
When the vehicle is new, the engine
needs to be run in, therefore the engine
oil consumption can only be considered
stabilised after the first 5,000–6,000
km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption
depends on driving style and the
conditions under which the vehicle is
used.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing
the oil, let the engine run for a few
seconds and wait a few minutes after
switching it off before checking the
level.
IMPORTANT Always top up using
engine oil of the same specifications as
that already in the engine.ENGINE COOLANT
48)
177)
The coolant level must be checked
when the engine is cold and must
range between the MIN and MAX
marks on the reservoir.
If the level is to low, operate as follows:
❒remove the plastic cover A fig. 240,
rotating the locking screws B fig.
240 counter-clockwise, to access the
filler of the reservoir;
❒slowly pour a mixture of 50%
demineralised water and 50%
PARAFLU
UP
from PETRONAS
LUBRICANTS through the reservoir
filler C fig. 237 - fig. 238 - fig. 239
until the level is close to MAX.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU
UP
and
distilled water gives freeze protection
up to –35°C.
When the vehicle is used in particularly
harsh weather conditions, we
recommend using a 60-40 mixture of
PARAFLU
UP
and demineralised water.
