the engine immediately and contact
a Fiat Dealership.The symbols are gradually turned off as the oil level
drops.
Four or five symbols light up to indicate a sufficient level
of oil in the sump. If the fifth symbol is not lit, this does
not indicate a fault or that insufficient oil is present in
the sump.
If the oil level is lower than the minimum required value,
the display shows a dedicated message indicating
minimum engine oil level and the need for a top-up.

time to the next oil change is shown on the top row
of the display. When the service interval has expired
a dedicated warning will be shown on the display. ENGINE OIL LEVEL GAUGE
