Closing the bonnet
Ensure that the windscreen wiper
blades are correctly positioned.
Place stay 4 back into its holders 5 ,
hold the bonnet in the middle and lower
it to about 20 cm above the closed po-
sition, then release it. It will latch auto-
matically under its own weight.
Ensure that the bonnet is
properly locked.
Check that nothing is pre-
venting the catch from lock-
ing (gravel, cloth, etc.).
Opening the bonnet
Lift the bonnet and release stay 4 from
its holders 5. For your own safety, it is
essential to fix the stay into retainer 3
in the bonnet.
After any procedure in the
engine compartment, make
sure that you do not forget
anything (cloth, tools, etc.).
Otherwise, this may lead to engine
damage or cause a fire.

4.4
ENGINE OIL LEVEL: general information (1/2)
If the level is at the minimum
The “TOP-UP OIL LEVEL” message
and warning light
© are displayed
on the instrument panel.
It is vital to top up the oil as soon as
possible.
The display only warns the
driver if the oil level is at the
minimum level. It does not
inform the driver that the oil
level has exceeded the maximum
level as this can only be measured
using a dipstick.
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 an 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.
Reading the oil level
The 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.
The instrument panel display only
alerts the driver when the oil level is at
its minimum.
