ENGINE OIL LEVEL
GAUGE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The gauge provides a graphic indication
of the level of oil in the engine.
When the ignition key is turned to
MAR-ON, the display fig. 147 - fig. 148
shows the oil level by lighting up /
switching off five symbols.The gradual switching off of the
symbols indicates a decreasing oil level.
Four or five symbols light up to indicate
a sufficient level of oil in the sump. If
the fifth symbol is not lit, this does not
indicate a fault or that insufficient oil
is present in the sump.
If the oil level is lower than the minimum
required value, the display shows a
dedicated message indicating minimum
engine oil level and the need for a
top-up.
IMPORTANT To find out the correct oil
quantity, always check using the
dipstick (see paragraph “Checking
levels” in the section “Maintenance and
care”).
After a few seconds, the symbol display
indicating the amount of engine oil
disappears and:
❒When the next scheduled servicing
intervention is approaching, the
time to the next service is displayed
and the õ symbol lights up on the
display. When the service date is
reached, the display shows a
dedicated message;❒Later on, if the time for changing the
engine oil is getting close, the
distance until the next oil change will
appear on the display. When the
service interval has expired a
dedicated warning will be shown on
the display.
IMPORTANT
20) If the needle for the engine
coolant temperature reaches the
red area, stop the engine
immediately and contact a Fiat
