again and check the oil level.

Take out the engine oil dipstick A, clean
it with a lint-free cloth and reinsert it.

MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick.

Make sure to tighten the oil plug in
its seat thoroughly after possibly
topping the oil up.
The range between the MIN and MAX
levels corresponds to approximately
1 litre of oil.
Engine oil consumption
23)3)
The maximum engine oil consumption
is usually 400 grams every 1,000 km.When the car is new, the engine needs
to 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 run for a few
seconds and wait a few minutes after
stopping it before you check the level.
ENGINE COOLANT
24)122)
The coolant level must be checked
when the engine is cold and must
range between the MIN and MAX
marks on the reservoir.
If the level is too low, unscrew reservoir
plug C fig. 119 and add the fluid
described in the "Fluids and lubricants"
paragraph of the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
