Engine oil level
general information
If the level is at minimum: “ok” will not
appear on the display; dashes and “oil”
will flash (message 2) and, depending
on the vehicle,
ø lights up on the
instrument panel.
It is vital to top up the oil as soon as
possible.
The
ø warning light comes on
while driving when the oil change/serv-
ice interval is reached.

For more information, press the trip
mileage recorder reset button.
The squares which appear on the dis-
play indicate the level. These symbols
disappear as the oil level drops and
they are replaced by dashes.
engIne OIL LeveL: general information (1/2)
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
vehicle on level ground, after the engine
has been switched off for some time.
t h

e 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 min-
imum.

topping up/filling
t opping up/filling
The vehicle must be parked on level
ground and the engine should be cold
(for instance, before the engine is
started up for the first time in the day).
–

Unscrew cap 1;
–

top up the level (as a guide, the ca -
pacity between the minimum and
m

aximum reading on the dipstick 2
is between 1.5 and 2 litres, depend-
ing on the engine);
–

wait for approximately 10 minutes to
allow the oil to flow into the engine;
–

check the level using dipstick 2 (as
described above).
Do not exceed the maximum level and
do not forget to refit cap

The engine may be hot
during operations in close
proximity. In addition, the
engine cooling fan may
come on at any moment.
Risk of burns.
If you wish to check the disc and drum
wear yourself, you should obtain the
document explaining the checking pro-
cedure from our network or from the
manufacturer’s website.
t opping up
After any operation on the hydraulic cir-
cuit, a specialist must replace the fluid.
Only use fluids approved by the man-
ufacturer’s Technical Department (and
taken from a sealed container).
Replacement interval: refer to the
Maintenance Service Booklet for your
vehicle.
Brake fluid level
The level should be read with the vehi-
cle stationary and on level ground.
This should be checked frequently,
and immediately if you notice even the
slightest loss in braking efficiency.
Level

It is normal for the level to drop as
the linings become worn, but it should
never drop below the MI

Coolant
Level checking intervals
Check the level regularly (severe
damage is likely to be caused to the
engine if there is insufficient coolant).
If the level needs to be topped up, only
use products approved by our Technical
Department which ensure:
–

protection against freezing,
– anti-corrosion protection of the cool -
ing system.
Consult your approved Dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
No operations should be
carried out on the cooling
circuit when the engine is
hot.
Risk of burns.
Level
The level should be read with the engine
switched off and on level ground.
The level when cold should be be-
tween the “ M
In ” and “ MAX” marks on
coolant reservoir

Top this level up when cold before the
“MI
n” mark is reached.
Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Service
Booklet for your vehicle.

– Before going through a roller type
car wash, return the windscreen
wiper stalk to park position (refer to
the information on the “Windscreen
wash/wipe” in Section 1). Check the
mounting of external accessories,
additional lights, door mirrors, etc.,
and be sure to hold the wiper blades
and radio aerial in place with adhe-
sive tape.
Remove the radio aerial mast if your
vehicle is fitted with this equipment.
–

Spray mechanical components,
hinges, etc. with products approved
by our Technical Department to
protect them after they have been
cleaned.
We have selected special products
to care for your vehicle and you can
obtain these from the manufactur-
er’s accessory outlets.
– Observe the vehicle stopping dis-
tances when driving on gravelled
surfaces to prevent paint damage.
–

Repair, or have repaired quickly,
areas where the paint has been dam-
aged, to prevent corrosion spread-
ing.
–

Remember to visit the body shop
periodically if your vehicle has an
anti-corrosion warranty. Refer to the
Maintenance Service Booklet.
–

Respect local regulations about
washing vehicles (e.g. do not wash
your vehicle on a public highway).
y ou should
– Wash your car frequently, with the
engine off , with cleaning products
recommended by our Technical
Department (never use abrasive
products) and be sure to jet-rinse
off:
–

spots of tree resin and industrial
grime;
–

bird droppings, which cause
a chemical reaction with the
paint that rapidly discolours
paintwork and may even cause
the paint to peel off;


Wash the vehicle immediately to
remove these marks since it is im-
possible to remove them by pol-
ishing;
–

salt, particularly in the wheel
arches and underneath the body
after driving in areas where the
roads have been gritted;
–

mud in the wheel arches and un -
derneath the body which form
damp patches.

The jack is designed for
wheel changing purposes
only. It should never be
used for repairs or gain-
ing access to the underneath of the
vehicle.If the emergency spare
wheel has been stored
for several years, have it
checked by your Dealer to
ensure that it is safe to use.
Jack 6
This is located in compartment 7 inside
the emergency spare wheel.
When replacing in its location, fold the
jack completely after use.
Emergency spare wheel 3  
under
 the vehicle
This is stored in cradle 4 under the floor
at the rear of the vehicle.
To access the emergency spare wheel:
–

Open the tailgate;
– undo nut 2 using the wheelbrace;
–

detach the cage using handle 5;
–

remove emergency spare wheel.
Wheelbrace 1
This is located in the engine compart-
ment and is used to remove wheel
bolts,
to release the cage 4 which holds
the emergency spare wheel in place
and to fit the jack in position.

If you have to use the battery from an-
other vehicle to start, obtain suitable
jump leads (with a large cross section)
from an approved dealer or, if you al-
ready have jump leads, ensure that
they are in perfect condition.
t

he  two  batteries  must have an iden - 
tical

  nominal  voltage of 12  volts. The
battery supplying the current should
have a capacity (amp-hours, Ah) which
is at least the same as that of the dis-
charged battery.
Ensure that there is no risk of contact
between the two vehicles (risk of short
circuiting when the positive terminals
are connected) and that the discharged
battery is properly connected. Switch
off your vehicle ignition.
Start the engine of the vehicle supply-
ing the current and run it at an interme-
diate engine speed.
Special procedures may be
required to charge some
batteries. Contact your ap-
proved dealer.
Avoid all risk of sparks which may
cause an immediate explosion, and
charge the battery in a well-venti-
lated area. Risk of serious injury.
