fter checking the level, carefully refit the oil
filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.
After topping up the oil, the ignition-triggered oil
level indicator in the instrument panel does not
provide a valid information during 30 minutes.
Engine oil change
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for inter val details for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emission control system, never use
additives in the engine oil.
Brake fluid level
The brake fluid level should be close
to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check
the brake pad wear.
Changing the coolant
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for details of the inter val for this operation.
Fluid specification
This fluid must conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Power steering fluid level
The fluid level should be close to
the "MA X" mark. Verify this, with the
engine off, by reading the level on
the filler neck.
Coolant level
Check the coolant level regularly.
It is normal to top up the fluid
between two services. To ensure that the reading is correct, your
vehicle must be parked on a level sur face with
the engine cool.
The coolant level should be close to the "MA X"
mark but should never exceed it.
If the level is close to or below the "MIN" mark,
it is essential to top up.
A low coolant level presents a risk of serious
damage to your engine.
When the engine is warm, the temperature of
the coolant is regulated by the fan.
In addition, as the cooling system is pressurised,
wait at least one hour after switching off the
engine before carrying out any work.
To avoid the risk of scalding when you need to
top up in an emergency, place a cloth around
the cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap
and top up the level.
The cooling fan may star t after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might be
caught by the fan blades.
Fluid specification
The brake fluid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
