IMPORTANT The oil level is not refreshed
immediately on the display after topping

be refreshed on the display following to
procedure shown below.
Top-up and oil level indication update
on display
If a top-up is needed, proceed as follows
to ensure correct indication of the oil
level on the display:
2.0 T4 MAir engine
with the vehicle level, run the engine
for approximately 5 minutes
(temperature higher than 176°F (80°C)
and then stop the engine;
start the engine again and idle it for
about 2 minutes.
2.2 JTD Engine
with the car level, run the engine until
the second oil temperature notch lights
up on the display on the instrument panel,
then stop the engine;
wait for at least 3 minutes, turn the
ignition switch to ON without starting the
engine and wait for 20 seconds.
IMPORTANT If the indication is not
correct after the procedure, contact an
Alfa Romeo Dealership.IMPORTANT The oil dipstick in the engine
compartment, on versions with 2.2 JTD
engine, must be used ONLY if the oil level
sensor is faulty. The latter condition is
indicated by the
symbol which will
appear on the instrument panel.
The manual engine oil level checking
procedure must be carried out, when
necessary, on a cold engine only.
Never attempt to carry out the manual
engine oil checking procedure (using the
dipstick) with the engine hot. Contact
with the surrounding hot engine parts
could cause burns.
This operation is permitted only for the
time actually needed to restore correct
operation of the oil level sensor at an Alfa
Romeo dealership.
Engine oil consumption
68)
4)
The maximum engine oil consumption is
usually 0.88 lb (400 grams every
620 miles (1000 km). When the car is
new, the engine needs to be run in,
therefore the engine oil consumption can
only be considered stabilised after the
first 3100 - 3700 miles (5000 -
6000 km).
