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.
