In any case, it must never exceed 2 years. Where the car is used mostly in urban settings you need to replace the engine oil
filter every year.
(4) The maximum mileage is 120,000 km. The belt must be replaced every 6 years, regardless of distance travelled. If the vehicle is used in heavy conditions (dusty areas, cold climates, urban driving, long periods of idling), the maximum mileage is 60,000 km. The belt must be replaced every 4 years regardless of the
mileage.
(5) If the car runs on fuel with quality below the relevant European specification, this filter should be replaced every 20,000 km
(6) If the vehicle is used in dusty areas, this cleaner must be replaced every 20,000 km.
(7) The brake fluid replacement has to be done every two years, irrespective of the mileage.

PERIODIC CHECKS
Every1,000 km or before long trips
check and, if necessary, top up:
engine coolant level;
brake fluid level;
windscreen washer fluid level;
tyre inflation pressure and condition;
operation of lighting system
(headlights, direction indicators, hazard
warning lights, etc.);
operation of screen washer/wiper
system and positioning/wear of

the following conditions:
law enforcement (or security service),
taxi service;
towing a trailer or caravan;
dusty roads;
short, repeated journeys (less than

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

ENGINE OIL
168)
86)
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with
the vehicle parked on level ground.
Check that the oil level is between the
MIN and MAX references on the
dipstick A.
If the oil level is near or under the MIN
reference, add oil through the filler B
until it reaches the MAX reference.
Take out the engine oil dipstick A, clean
it with a lint-free cloth and reinsert it.
Extract it again and check that the level
is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the dipstick.
Engine oil consumption
87)
3)
The maximum engine oil consumption
is usually 400 grams every 1,000 km.
When the vehicle is new, the engine
needs to be run in; therefore the engine
oil consumption can only be considered
stabilised after the first 5,000 -
6,000 km.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing
the oil, let the engine turn over for a few
seconds and wait a few minutes after
turning it off before you check the level.
ENGINE COOLANT
169)
88)
If the level is too low, unscrew the cap
of reservoir C and add the fluid
described in the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WASHER FLUID
170) 171)
If the level is too low, lift reservoir cap D
and add the fluid described in the
chapter "Technical Specifications".
IMPORTANT The headlight washer
system (present) will not operate when
the fluid level is low, even though the
windscreen/rear window washer
continues to operate.BRAKE FLUID
172) 173)
89)
Check that the fluid is at the max. level.
If the fluid level in the reservoir is too
low, undo reservoir cap E and add the
fluid described in the chapter "Technical
Specifications".
IMPORTANT Carefully clean the cap of
the reservoir and the surrounding
surface. Take great care to ensure that
impurities do not enter the reservoir
when the cap is opened.
For topping-up, always use a funnel
with integrated filter with mesh equal to
or lower than 0.12 mm.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid is hygroscopic
(i.e. it absorbs moisture). For this
reason, if the vehicle is mainly used in
areas with a high degree of
atmospheric humidity, the fluid should
be replaced at more frequent intervals
than specified in the "Scheduled
Servicing Plan".

Raising the windscreen wipers
If you need to lift the windscreen wiper
blades (e.g. in case of snow or when
they need to be replaced), you need to

vehicle" chapter).
To lower the blades, set the ignition
device to MAR-ON.
IMPORTANT Place the blades back in
contact with the windscreen before
activating the windscreen wiper again
and/or setting the ignition device to
MAR-ON.
Replacing the windscreen wiper
blades
Proceed as follows:
raise the wiper arm, press button A
fig. 171 of the attachment spring and
remove the blade from the arm;
fit the new blade, inserting the tab in
the dedicated housing in the arm and
checking that it is locked;
lower the wiper arm on the
windscreen.
IMPORTANT Do not operate the
windscreen wiper with the blades lifted
from the windscreen.
Replacing the rear window wiper
blade
Proceed as follows:
widen the two tabs as shown by the
arrows and rotate cover A
fig. 172 outwards;

the central pin;
correctly align the new arm;
fully tighten nut B and then refit
cover A.
IMPORTANT Do not operate the rear
window wiper with the blade lifted from
the rear window.
