oil type Alfa Romeo Giulia 2016 Owner's Manual

149)Using the battery with insufficient
fluid irreparably damages the battery and
may cause an explosion.
150)If the vehicle must remain unused for a
long time at a very low temperature, remove
the battery and take it to a warm place, to
avoid freezing.
151)When performing any operation on the
battery or near it, always protect your eyes
with special goggles.
IMPORTANT
55)Be careful not to confuse the various
types of fluids while topping up: they are not
compatible with each other! Topping up with
an unsuitable fluid could severely damage
your vehicle.
56)The oil level must never exceed the MAX
reference.
57)Do not add oil with specifications other
than those of the oil already in the engine.
58)Use a fluid of the same type as that
already present in the reservoir for any
topping up of the engine cooling system. The
fluid cannot be mixed with other types of
antifreeze fluids. In the event of topping up
with an unsuitable product, under no
circumstances start the engine and contact
an Alfa Romeo Dealership.
59)When you need to disconnect or remove
the battery, do not close the boot. In order to
avoid possible accidental closure, it is
recommended to place an obstacle (e.g. a
cloth) on the lock that would physically avoid
closure.
IMPORTANT

substances which are harmful to the
environment. To change the oil and filters, we
advise you to contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
5)Used transmission fluid contains
substances that are harmful to the
