ENGINE OIL
Check that the oil level is between the MIN and MAX references on the
dipstick A.
If the oil level is near or under the MIN reference, add oil through the
filler B until it reaches the MAX reference.
The oil level must never exceed the MAX reference.
1.4 Petrol, 1.4 Turbo MultiAir, 1.3 JTDM-2, 1.6 JTDMversions
Take out the engine oil dipstick A, 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.
Turbo TwinAir versions
The engine oil dipstick A is integral with plug B. Undo the plug, clean
the dipstick with a cloth that does not leave traces, reinsert the dipstick
and re-tighten the plug.
Unscrew the plug again and check that the engine oil level is between
the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick.
Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption is usually 400 grams every
1,000 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 5,000 - 6,000 km.
Do not add oil with specifications other than those of the oil
already in the engine.
Used engine oil and oil filters contain substances which are
harmful to the environment. We recommend having the
oil and filters replaced by Alfa Romeo Authorised Services.
ENGINE COOLANT
If the level is too low, unscrew reservoir cap C and add the fluid
described in the "Technical Specifications" section.
PARAFLUUPanti-freeze is used in the engine cooling
system. Use the same fluid as in the cooling system when
topping up. PARAFLU
UPcannot be mixed with any other
type of fluid. If this accidentally occurs, do not start the engine under
any circumstances. Contact Alfa Romeo Authorised Services.
The cooling system is pressurised. If necessary, only
replace the cap with another genuine one or the
operation of the system may be adversely affected. Do
not remove the reservoir cap when the engine is hot: you risk
scalding yourself.
