Engine Oil
The engine oil level can be seen on the
instrument cluster display every time the
engine is started, or on the Information
and Entertainment system display by
activating on the main menu (MENU
button) the following functions in
sequence:
1. “Apps”
2. “My Car”
3. “Oil Level”
Check on the display using the 6 notches
that the oil level is between the MIN and
MAX level: 1 notch MIN level, 6 notches
MAX level.
If the oil level is close to or below the MIN
mark, add oil gradually through the filler,
(refer to “Top-Up And Oil Level Indication
Update On Display” in this section)
considering that each notch shown on the
display corresponds to approximately
8.8floz(250ml).
Caution!
Make sure not to add too much oil when
topping off the engine. Engine oil in excess
may damage the engine. Have the vehicle
checked. Never exceed the MAX level when
topping off engine oil.
Caution!
The oil level is not refreshed immediately on
the display after topping off. Consequently,
wait for the oil level to be refreshed on the
display and follow the procedure below.
Note:Always reinstall the oil cap and
tighten to proper torque whenever it is
removed to add oil to engine. Never run
the engine with cap removed this could
cause oil to leak from engine.
Top-Up And Oil Level Indication Update
On Display
If a engine oil top-off is needed, in order
to ensure the correct indication of the oil
level on the display, leave the vehicle on
flat ground with the engine running for
approximately five minutes (temperature
higher than 176°F (80°C)) and shut the
engine off. Then, start the engine again,
and idle it for about five minutes.
Note: If you have added the specified
amount of oil and the indicator is not
reading “Full”, please contact an
authorized dealer.
Warning!
If the engine oil is being topped up, wait for
the engine to cool down before loosening the
filler cap, particularly for vehicles with
aluminium cap (if equipped). WARNING: risk
of burns!
Caution!
The oil level must never exceed the MAX
mark.
If the MAX mark is exceeded MAX (last
notch on the right turns red) after the fill-up,
go to an authorized dealer as soon as
possible to have the oil in excess removed.
Do not add oil with specifications
different from those of the oil already in the
engine.
Used engine oil and oil filters contain
substances which are harmful to the
environment. To change the oil and filters,
we advise you to contact an authorized
dealer.
Engine Coolant Fluid
If the level is too low, unscrew the cap of
the reservoir and add the fluid described
in the "Technical Specifications" chapter.
