checking oil FIAT DOBLO COMBI 2015 2.G Owners Manual

Warning lights on
panelWhat it means What to do
redLOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
When the key is turned to MAR, the digital warning light switches on, but
it should switch off as soon as the engine is started.
The warning light switches on constantly together with the message in
the display when the system detects that the engine oil pressure is
insufficient.
12)
ENGINE OIL DETERIORATED
(MultiJet versions with DPF only)
The warning light starts to flash together with a message on the display
(for versions/markets, where provided) when the system detects that the
engine oil has deteriorated.
If the warning light flashes, this does not mean that the vehicle is faulty,
but simply informs the driver that it is now necessary to change the
engine oil as a result of regular vehicle use. If the oil is not changed, when
a second deterioration threshold is reached, the
warning light also
switches on in the instrument panel and the engine operation is limited to
3000 rpm.
If the oil is still not changed, when a third deterioration threshold is
reached, the engine is limited to 1500 rpm to avoid damage.Contact a Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible.
50) 51)
Remember that the
deterioration of the engine
oil is accelerated by:
– mainly town use of the
vehicle which makes the
DPF regeneration process
more frequent
– use of the vehicle for
short trips, preventing the
engine from reaching
operating temperature
– repeated interruption of
the regeneration process,
signalled by the DPF
warning light coming on.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
redLOW ENGINE OIL LEVEL
When turning the ignition key to MAR, the warning light turns on but it
should go off after a few seconds.
This warning light appears on the panel when the engine oil level falls
below the minimum recommended value.
On certain versions a dedicated message is displayed.Restore the correct
engine oil level (see
“Checking fluid levels” in
the "Servicing and
maintenance" section).

ENGINE OIL
Check the oil level a few minutes
(about 5) after the engine has
stopped, with the vehicle parked on
level ground.
The oil level must be between the
MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick
B fig. 207 - fig. 208 - fig. 209 - fig.
210 - fig. 211 - fig. 212.
The range between the MIN and
MAX marks corresponds to about 1
litre of oil.
If the oil level is near or under the
MIN mark, add oil through the filler A
fig. 207 - fig. 208 - fig. 209 - fig.
210 - fig. 211 - fig. 212, until it
reaches the MAX mark.
The oil level must never exceed the
MAX mark.
Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil
consumption is usually 400 grams
every 1,000 km.
When the vehicle 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.IMPORTANT The oil consumption
depends on the driving style and the
conditions under which the vehicle
is used.
IMPORTANT After adding or
changing the oil, let the engine turn
over for a few seconds and wait a
few minutes after turning it off before
checking oil level.

ENGINE COOLANT
The coolant level must be checked
when the engine is cold and must
range between the MIN and MAX
marks on the reservoir. If the level is
low, slowly pour a mixture of 50%
distilled water and 50% PARAFLU
UP
byPETRONAS LUBRICANTS
through the filler neck C fig. 207 -
fig. 208 - fig. 209 - fig. 210 - fig. 211
- fig. 212 until the level approaches
MAX.The mixture of 50% PARAFLU
UP
and 50% distilled water protects
against freezing down to
temperatures of –35°C. For
particularly harsh climate conditions,
we recommended using a mixture
of 60% PARAFLU
UPand 40%
distilled water.
