ENGINE OIL LEVEL: general information (1/2)
Minimum oil level warning on
the instrument panel
When the message “Checking control
functions” is displayed, press either
button 3 or 4.
If the level is above the minimum
level : the message “Oil level” will be
shown on the display with squares 1,
which are replaced by dashes when the
level drops 2.
Note: The detailed level cannot be dis-
played if the vehicle was previously
only driven for a short time. If the level is at the minimum
The “Top up oil level” message and
warning light © are displayed on
the instrument panel.
It is vital to top up the oil as soon as
possible.
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
between oil changes.
However, contact your approved Dealer
if more than 0.5 litres is being consu-
med 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.
The 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 minimum.

Use in winter
Chains
For safety reasons, fitting snow
chains to the rear axle is strictly for-
bidden.
Chains cannot be fitted to tyres which
are larger than those originally fitted to
the vehicle.
Snow or Winter tyres
We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four wheels to ensure that
your vehicle retains maximum adhe-
sion.
Warning : These tyres sometimes have
a specific direction of rotation and a
maximum speed index which may be
lower than the maximum speed of your
vehicle.
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
– It may mean that your vehicle no longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
– It may change the way it handles when cornering;
– It may cause the steering to be heavy;
– It may affect the use of snow chains.
TYRES (3/3)
In all cases, we would recommend
that you contact an approved dealer
who will be able to advise you on
the choice of equipment which is
most suitable for your vehicle.
Changing a wheel
As the tyre pressure moni-
tor may take several min-
utes following driving to cor-
rectly determine the positions of the
wheels and the pressure values,
check the tyre pressures following
any operation.
18” wheels cannot be
fitted with chains.
If you wish to fit snow
chains, you must use spe-
cial equipment.
Consult an approved Dealer.
Studded tyres
This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation. It is neces-
sary to observe the speed specified by
current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.Fitting new tyres
