Checking Oil Level
To assure proper engine lubrication, the engine oil must
be maintained at the correct level. Check the oil level at
regular intervals. The best time to check the engine oil
level
is
before
starting
the
engine
after
it
has
sat
overnight.
Do not check oil level when the engine is warm.
Checking engine oil level when the engine is warm will
give you an incorrect reading.
Checking the oil while the vehicle is on level ground, and
has sat overnight, will improve the accuracy of the oil
level readings. Maintain the oil level between the range
markings on the dipstick. The safe range is indicated by a
crosshatch zone. Adding 1 quart of oil when the reading
is at the low end of the indicated range will result in the
oil level at the full end of the indicator range.
CAUTION!
Do not overfill the engine with oil. Overfilling the
engine with oil will cause oil aeration, which can
lead to loss of oil pressure and an increase in oil
temperature. This loss of oil pressure and increased
oil temperature could damage your engine.
Adding Washer Solvent
To check the windshield washer solvent level, proceed
as follows:
1. To avoid any interference during the procedure, lift

driver. Remove the washer solvent protection panel.
3. Release the plug from the opening.
4. Leaving the plug close to the opening, put a finger on
the central hole in the plug and remove it: the level
can be seen on the control pipe due to capillarity.

5. After the check, reinsert the plug with the control
pipe in the initial position.

If the level is not sufficient, namely if there is no washer
solvent inside the pipe, proceed as follows:
1. To avoid any interference during the procedure, lift
the windshield wiper blade.
2. Loosen the four screws using the supplied screw-
driver. Remove the washer solvent protection panel.
3. Take the black funnel for topping up the windshield
washer solvent and its extension pipe from the
service kit in the luggage compartment.
4. Take out the plug with the solvent control pipe
through the washer solvent protection panel.
5. Introduce the funnel and its extension pipe in the
reservoir neck and top up.
6. After topping up, remove the funnel with the exten-
sion pipe.
7. Refit the plug with the dipstick.
8. Reposition the washer solvent protection panel and
tighten the four self-tapping screws.
