Engine oil level
general information
If the level is at minimum: “ok” will not
appear on the display; dashes and “oil”
will flash (message 2) and, depending
on the vehicle,
ø lights up on the
instrument panel.
It is vital to top up the oil as soon as
possible.
The
ø warning light comes on
while driving when the oil change/serv-
ice interval is reached.
Message 1
Level above
minimum
Message 2
Minimum level
(flashing)
Minimum oil level warning on
the instrument panel
When the ignition has been switched
on for approximately 30 seconds:
If the level is above the minimum
level , the display shows display mes-
sage
1.
For more information, press the trip
mileage recorder reset button.
The squares which appear on the dis-
play indicate the level. These symbols
disappear as the oil level drops and
they are replaced by dashes.
engIne OIL LeveL: general information (1/2)
The display only warns the
driver if the oil level is at the
minimum level. It does not
inform the driver that the oil
level has exceeded the maximum
level as this can only be measured
using a dipstick.
It is normal for an engine to use oil for
lubrication and cooling of moving parts
and it is normal to top up the level be-
tween 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.
Reading the oil level
The oil level should be read with the
vehicle on level ground, after the engine
has been switched off for some time.
t h
e dipstick must be used to read
the exact oil level and make sure
that the maximum level has not been
exceeded (risk of engine damage).
Refer to the following pages.
The instrument panel display only alerts
the driver when the oil level is at its min-
imum.

Reading the level using the
dipstick
– Remove the dipstick (refer to the
following pages for its location) and
wipe it with a clean lint-free cloth;
–
push the dipstick in as far as it will go
(for vehicles equipped with “cap-type
d
ipstick” C , screw the cap in com-
pletely);
–
take out the dipstick again;
– read the level: it should never fall
b
elow minimum mark B or exceed
maximum mark
A.
Once the operation has been completed,
ensure that the dipstick is pushed in as
far as it will go or that the “cap-type dip-
stick” is completely screwed in.
Maximum engine oil level
exceeded.
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.
Under no circumstances
must maximum fill lev-
e
l A be exceeded: risk of
damage to the engine and
catalytic converter.
The engine may be hot
when carrying out opera-
tions in close proximity. In
addition, the engine cooling
fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
In order to prevent splashback, it is
recommended that a funnel be used
when topping up/filling with oil.

pacity between the minimum and
m
aximum reading on the dipstick 2
is between 1.5 and 2 litres, depend-
ing on the engine);
–
wait for approximately 10 minutes to
allow the oil to flow into the engine;
–
check the level using dipstick 2 (as
described above).
Do not exceed the maximum level and
do not forget to refit cap
