ing light

companied by a beep, this means the
engine is overheating. Stop and allow
the engine to run at idle speed for a
minute or two. The temperature should
drop. If not, stop the engine. Let it cool
down before checking the coolant level.
Contact an authorised dealer if neces-
sary.

Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase in
fuel consumption (especially when driv-
ing in town) when the air conditioning is
operating.
For vehicles fitted with air conditioning
with no automatic mode, switch off the
system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and helping to preserve the environ-
ment
Drive with the air vents open and the
windows closed.
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few moments
to let the hot air escape before starting
the engine.
Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Document
for your vehicle for the inspection fre-
quency.
AIR CONDITIONING: information and advice on use
Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved dealer in the event of an oper-
ating fault.
– Reduction in de-icing, demisting
or air conditioning performance .
This may be caused by the passen-
ger compartment filter cartridge be-
coming clogged.
– No cold air is being produced .
Check that the controls are set cor-
rectly and that the fuses are sound.
Otherwise, switch off the system.
Presence of water under the
vehicle
After prolonged use of the air condi-
tioning system, it is normal for water
to be present under the vehicle. This is
caused by condensation.
Do not open the refriger-
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL: general information
Reading the oil levelThe oil level should be read with the ve-
hicle on level ground, after the engine
has been switched off for some time.
The dipstick must be used to read
the exact oil level and make sure
that the maximum level has not been
exceeded (risk of engine damage).
Refer to the following pages.
C
A
B
A
B
Exceeding the maximum
engine oil level
Under no circumstances
must the maximum fill
level B be exceeded: risk of damage
to the engine and catalytic con-
verter.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum
level, do not start your vehicle .
Contact an authorised dealer.
It is normal for an engine to use oil for
lubrication and cooling of moving parts
and it is normal to top up the level be-
tween oil changes.
However, contact your approved
Dealer if more than 0.5 litres is being
consumed every 600 miles (1,000 km)
after the running in period.
Oil change frequency: check the oil
level from time to time and certainly
before any long journey to avoid the
risk of damaging your engine.
Consult your approved dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
In order to prevent splashback, it is
recommended that a funnel be used
when topping up/filling with oil.
– remove the dipstick and wipe with a clean, lint-free cloth;
– push the dipstick in as far as it will go (for vehicles equipped with a cap-
type dipstick C, screw the cap in as
far as it will go);
– take out the dipstick again;
– read the level: it should never fall below minimum mark A or exceed
maximum mark B.
Once the operation has been com-
pleted, ensure that the dipstick is
pushed in as far as it will go or that
the “cap-type dipstick” is completely
screwed in.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL: topping up, filling (3/3)
Oil change
Service interval: refer to the
Maintenance Document for your vehi-
cle.
Oil change capacity
Please refer to the maintenance docu-
ment for your vehicle, or contact an au-
thorised dealer.
Always check the engine oil level using
the dipstick, as explained previously (it
should never fall below the minimum
level, or be over the maximum level on
the dipstick).
Engine oil grade
Refer to the maintenance document for
your vehicle.
Engine oil change: if you
are changing the oil when
the engine is hot, be careful
not to scald yourself if the
oil overflows.
The engine may be hot
during operations in close
proximity. In addition, the
engine cooling fan may
come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Filling: take care when
topping up the oil that
no oil drips onto engine
components - risk of fire.
Remember to refit the cap securely
as there is a risk of fire if oil splashes
onto hot engine components.
Never run the engine in an
enclosed space as exhaust
gases are poisonous.
Consult an approved dealer at once
if you notice an abnormal or re-
peated drop in any of the fluid levels.
Exceeding the maximum
engine oil level
Under no circumstances
must the maximum fill level
be exceeded: risk of damage to the
engine and catalytic converter.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum
level, do not start your vehicle .
Contact an authorised dealer.

LEVELS (1/4)
Brake fluid level
This should be checked frequently,
and immediately if you notice even the
slightest loss in braking efficiency.
The level should be read with the engine
switched off and on level ground. Level
It is normal for the level to drop as the
brake shoes become worn, but it must
never drop lower than the “MINI” warn-
ing line shown on brake fluid reser-
voir 1.
If you wish to check the disc and drum
wear yourself, you should obtain the
document explaining the checking pro-
cedure from the approved dealer net-
work or from the manufacturer’s web
site.
The engine may be hot
during operations in close
proximity. In addition, the
engine cooling fan may
come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Consult your approved dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
Topping up
After any operation on the hydraulic cir-
cuit, a specialist must replace the fluid.
Only use fluids approved by the
Technical Department and which have
been taken from a sealed container.

Coolant
With the engine switched off and on
level ground, the level when cold must
be between the MINI and MAXI marks
on reservoir 2.
Top this level up when cold before it
reaches the MINI mark.
No operations should be
carried out on the cooling
circuit when the engine is
hot.
Risk of burns.
Checking intervals
Check the coolant level regularly
(very severe damage is likely to be
caused to the engine if it runs out of
coolant).
If the level needs to be topped up, only
use products approved by our Technical
Department which ensure:
– protection against freezing;
– anti-corrosion protection of the cool- ing system.
Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Service
Booklet for your vehicle.
Consult an approved dealer at once

OPERATING FAULTS (4/5)
On the road POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO
Whistling Roof aerial poorly positioned. Position the aerial.
The engine overheats. The coolant
temperature indicator light comes
on. Engine cooling fan not working. Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and
contact an approved dealer.
Coolant leaks. Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and
check the coolant reservoir: it should con-
tain fluid. If there is no coolant, consult an
approved dealer as soon as possible.
The oil change warning light remains
lit after an oil change. Warning not reset after oil change.
Reset the warning after changing the oil;
refer to the information in the paragraph on
the “On-board computer” in Section 1.
Radiator: If there is a significant lack of coolant, remember that it must never b\
e topped up using cold coolant while
the engine is very warm. After any procedure on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling
system, it must be refilled with a new mixture prepared in the correct p\
roportions. Reminder: only products approved
by the Technical Department may be used for this purpose.
