With the ignition switched on and the engine not running ,
when the message “Mileage before next service” is displayed,
press button 2 or 3 for around 5 seconds to display the mile-
age before the next service (distance or time remaining before
the next service). When the distance value approaches its limit,
there are several possible scenarios:
– distance/time remaining less than 900 miles (1,500 km) or
one month : the message “Service due in” is displayed ac-
companied by the nearest term (distance or time);
– distance equal to 0 miles or service date reached: the
message “service vehicle” is displayed accompanied by the
© warning light.
The vehicle requires a service as soon as possible.

proaches its limit, there are several possible scenarios:
– distance/time remaining less than 900 miles (1,500 km) or
one month : the message “Service due in” is displayed ac-

Depending on the vehicle, the mileage before an oil change varies accord\
ing to the driving style (frequent driving at low speed ,
door-to-door journeys, extensive use at idling speed, towing a trailer, etc.). The distance remaining until the next oil change can
therefore decrease more quickly in some cases than the actual distance t\
ravelled.
Resetting: to reset the mileage before the next service, press and hold button 2 or 3 for approximately 10 seconds until the
display shows the mileage before service without flashing.
NB: if a service is performed without changing the engine oil, only the mi\
leage before the next service should be reset. In the
event of an oil change, both the distance before the next service and th\
e next oil change should be reset.

– remove the dipstick and wipe with a clean, lint-free cloth;
– push the dipstick in as far as it will go (for vehicles equipped with a cap-
type dipstick C, screw the cap in as
far as it will go);
– take out the dipstick again;
– read the level: it should never fall below minimum mark A or exceed
maximum mark B.
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.
ENGINE OIL LEVEL: general information
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 your 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.

In order to prevent splashback, it is
recommended that a funnel be used
when topping up/filling with oil.
Reading the oil levelThe oil level should be read with the ve-
hicle on level ground, after the engine
has been switched off for some time.
The 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.
Before performing any
action in the engine com-
partment, the ignition must
be switched off by pressing
the engine stop button (please see
the information on “Starting, stop-
ping the engine” in Section 2).
Exceeding the maximum
engine oil level
Under no circumstances
must the maximum fill
level B be exceeded: risk of damage
to the engine and catalytic con-
verter.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum
level, do not start your vehicle and
contact an approved Dealer.
Consult your approved Dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.

4.7
Never run the engine in an
enclosed space as exhaust
gases are poisonous.
Engine oil change: if you
are changing the oil when
the engine is hot, be careful
not to scald yourself if the
oil overflows.
Filling: take care when
topping up the oil that
no oil drips onto engine
components - risk of fire.
Remember to refit the cap securely
as there is a risk of fire if oil splashes
onto hot engine components.
Consult your approved Dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
Oil change
Service interval: refer to the
Maintenance Document for your vehi-
cle.
Average capacity for oil
changes
Please refer to the maintenance docu-
ment for your vehicle, or contact an au-
thorised dealer.
Always check the engine oil level using
the dipstick, as explained previously (it
should never fall below the minimum
level, or be over the maximum level on
the dipstick).
Engine oil grade
Refer to the Maintenance Document for
your vehicle.
ENGINE OIL LEVEL: topping up, filling (3/3)/OIL CHANGE
The engine may be hot
when carrying out opera-
tions in close proximity. In
addition, the engine cooling
fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Before performing any
action in the engine com-
partment, the ignition must
be switched off by pressing
the engine stop button (please see
the information on “Starting, stop-
ping the engine” in Section 2).
When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in the park position.
Risk of injury.
Exceeding the maximum
engine oil level
Under no circumstances
must the maximum fill level
be exceeded: risk of damage to the
engine and catalytic converter.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum
level, do not start your vehicle and
contact an approved Dealer.
