ENGINE OIL
Check that the oil level is between the
MIN and MAX references on the dipstick
3.
If the level of the oil is close to or below
the MIN mark, add oil via the filler fitting
2 until the MAX mark is reached.
131)42)
Take out the engine oil dipstick 3, clean it
with a lint-free cloth and reinsert it.
Extract it again and check that the level is
between the MIN and MAX marks on the
dipstick.
Engine oil consumption
43)3)
The maximum engine oil consumption is
usually 400 grams every 1000 km. When
the car is new, the engine needs to be run
in; therefore the engine oil consumption
can only be considered stabilised after
the first 5000 - 6000 km.
ENGINE COOLANT FLUID
If the level is too low, unscrew the cap
1 of reservoir and add the fluid described
in the "Technical Specifications" chapter.
44)132)
WINDSCREEN / REAR WINDOW
WASHING FLUID
If the level is too low, raise the reservoir
cap 6 and add the fluid described in the
"Technical Specifications" chapter.
133) 134)
IMPORTANT The headlight washer
system will not operate when the fluid
level is low, even though the
windscreen/rear window washer
continues to operate. For
versions/markets, where provided, there
is a reference notch on the dipstick (see
previous pages): ONLY the
windscreen/rear window wiper operates
with the level below this reference.
BRAKE FLUID
Check that the fluid is at the max. level.
If the fluid level in the reservoir is too low,
undo the reservoir cap 4 and add the fluid
described in the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
45)135) 136)
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
ACTIVATIONSYSTEM OIL
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The transmission control oil level should
only be checked at an Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
4)
IMPORTANT
41)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.42)The oil level must never exceed the MAX
reference.
43)Do not add oil with specifications other
than those of the oil already in the engine.
44)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.
45)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen, immediately
wash with water.
WARNING
129)Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: gas and inflammable
vapours may be present, with the risk of fire.
130)Be very careful when working in the
engine compartment when the engine is hot:
you may get burned. Do not get too close to
the radiator cooling fan: the electric fan may
start; danger of injury. Scarves, ties and
other loose clothing might be pulled by
moving parts.
131)If the engine oil is being topped up, wait
for the engine to cool down before loosening
the filler cap, particularly for vehicles with
aluminium cap (where provided). WARNING:
risk of burns!
