xAnti-lock braking warning
light
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out after a few
seconds.
If it does not go out after the ignition is
switched on, or lights up when driving,
there is a fault with the ABS. Braking
will then be as normal, without the ABS
system.
Contact an approved Dealer as soon as

light
Depending on the vehicle, if the warn-
ing light comes on, you must have your
brake pads checked as soon as possi-
ble.
LLow fuel level warning light
This comes on when the igni -
tion is switched on and goes out after a
few seconds. If it comes on when driv-

fuel as soon as possible. There is only
approximately 30 miles (50 km) worth
of fuel left after the warning light first
comes on.
Épreheating warning light (on
diesel version)
This should come on when the igni -
tion is switched on. It indicates that the
heater plugs are in operation. It goes
out after preheating is sufficient and the
engine can be started.
Òelectronic fault warning light
If it comes on when driving, it
indicates an electronic or electrical fault
or, for diesel versions, the presence of
water in the diesel fuel.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon
as possible.
åAir bag warning light
This comes on when the igni -
tion is switched on and goes out after
a few seconds. If it does not come on
when the ignition is switched on or if it
flashes, there is a fault in the system.
Contact an approved Dealer as soon as
possible.
ÀOil pressure warning light
If it comes on while you are
driving, stop at once and switch off the
ignition.
Check the oil level (refer to section 4
“Engine oil level”). If the level is normal,
the light has come on for another

Engine oil level:
general description
Minimum oil level display A
If the level is above the minimum
level
The “oil level” message appears on the
display, accompanied by squares indi -
cating the level. These squares disap -
pear as the level drops and they are re-
placed by dashes.
To advance to trip computer reading,
press button 1 or 2 again. If the level is at the minimum
The message “adjust oil level” or “oil”
and the © warning light are dis
-
played 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.
o il 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.
t he 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.

your vehicle. –
Unscrew cap 4;
– top up the level (as a guide, the ca-
pacity between the minimum and the
maximum reading on the dipstick 5 is
1.5 litres, depending on the engine);
– wait for approximately 10 minutes to
allow the oil to flow into the engine;
– check the level using dipstick 5 (as
described above).
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.
Do not exceed the max level and
do not forget to refit cap 4 and dip-
stick 5.
