Engine oil level: general information
Reading the oil level
The oil level should be read with the ve-
hicle 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.
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 be-
tween oil changes.
However, contact your approved
Dealer if more than 0.5 litres is being
consumed 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.
ENGINE OIL LEVEL: general information (1/2)
Before performing any
action in the engine com-
partment, the ignition must
be switched off (please see
the information on “Starting, stop-
ping the engine” in Section 2).
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.
Minimum oil level warning on
the instrument panel
The instrument panel display only
alerts the driver when the oil level is at
its minimum.
If the message “Top up oil level” is dis-
played on the instrument panel, check
the oil level on the instrument panel or
using the dipstick. Refer to the follow-
ing page.
Adding engine oil
Use a funnel or protect the
filling neck area to avoid
engine oil escaping onto a
hot part of the engine compartment
or sensitive parts (e.g. electrical
components).
Fire hazard.
