Engine oil top-up
Always check oil level before topping-up and add oil without exceeding the MAX
level. Getting an oil level between the MIN and MAX levels requires ~ 400 cm³ of oil.
Take your vehicle to an Authorised Service Centre to have the engine oil checked
and topped-up, if required, as indicated in the scheduled maintenance tables.

Warning light (insufficient oil pressure) (03_02)
The vehicle is fitted with a warning light «E» that is turned on when the key is turned
to «ON». This warning must go off once the engine starts. If the light comes on
during braking, at idle speed or while turning a corner, it is necessary to check
the oil level and top-up if required. If after having topped up the oil, the warning
light still turns on while braking, at idle speed or while turning a corner, it will
be necessary to turn to an Authorised Service Centre.

Engine oil change (03_03)
Have oil changed and the cartridge filter «C» replaced as indicated in the scheduled
maintenance table at an Authorised Service Centre. The engine should be emptied
by draining the oil through drainage plug «B » of the mesh filter on the flywheel side.
In order to facilitate the oil drainage, loosen the cap/dipstick. Since a certain quantity
of oil still remains in the circuit, add approx. 950 ÷ 1000 cm³ of oil through the cap
«A. Then start the engine, leave it running for a few minutes and shut it off: after 5
minutes, check the level and if necessary, top-up without exceeding the MAX lev-
el. The cartridge filter must be replaced at every oil change. For top-ups and changes,
use new oil of the recommended type.
