2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Change oil

Amber symbols
Symbol What it means
ENGINE IMMOBILIZER FAILURE / BREAK-IN ATTEMPT
Engine Immobilizer system failure
The symbol switches on to report a failure of the Engine Immobilizer system. Contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership as soon as
possible.
Break-in attempt
The symbol switches on when the ignition device is moved to ON position, to indicate a possible break-in attempt detected by the
alarm system.
Electronic key not recognised
The symbol switches on when the engine is started and the electronic key is not recognized by the system.
Alarm system failure
This symbol switches on to report an alarm system failure.
FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM OPERATION
The symbol switches on in the event of fuel cut-off system intervention.
For reactivating the fuel cut-off system, refer to the description in the "Fuel cut-off system" section in the "In an emergency"
chapter. If it is not possible to restore the fuel supply, contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership.
ENGINE OIL DETERIORATED
(where provided)
The symbol is displayed only for a limited time.
IMPORTANT After the first indication, each time the engine is started the symbol will continue to switch on as described above
until the oil is changed.
If the symbol flashes, this does not mean that there is a fault on the vehicle, rather it simply reports that it is now necessary to
change the oil as a result of regular use of the vehicle. The deterioration of engine oil is accelerated by using the vehicle for short
drives, preventing the engine from reaching operating temperature.
Contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership as soon as possible.
16)
IMPORTANT
16)Deteriorated engine oil should be replaced as soon as possible after the symbol is switched on, and never more than 500 km after it first
switches on. Failure to observe the above may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the warranty. When this symbol comes on, it
does not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so you do not need to top up the engine oil.

SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the vehicle
under the best conditions.
For this reason, Alfa Romeo has planned
a series of checks and maintenance
operations at fixed distance intervals
and, for versions/markets, where
provided, at fixed time intervals, as
described in the Service Schedule.
Before each service, it is always
necessary to carefully follow the
instructions in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan (e.g. periodically check level of
fluids, tyre pressure, etc.).
Scheduled Servicing is offered by an Alfa
Romeo Dealership according to a set
time schedule. If, during each operation,
in addition to the ones scheduled, the
need arises for further replacements or
repairs, these may be carried out with the
owner's explicit consent only.
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
operations are required by the
Manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the warranty.
It is advisable to inform the Alfa Romeo
Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the next
service.
