NB: when the luggage net roller is in-

stalled on the back of the large section

of the seatback, a system ensures the

seatback does not fold down uninten-

tionally. It is therefore necessary, after

unlocking the seatback, to tilt it by pull-

ing from the top beyond the point of re-

sistance, from the right-hand rear door

side.

When driving, it is forbid-

den to sit in the small sec-

tion of the rear bench seat

if the large section is folded

down, with the net in position.

Behind the front seats
With the rear bench seatbacks folded

down, lift cover 8 on each side to

access the anchorage points used as

upper attachments for the net.
Remove rod 5 from its housing and

insert it into the anchorage points 9 (it

must be inserted in ring 7).
To remove the net, proceed in the re-

verse order.

Engine oil level:

general information

enGIne OIL LeVeL: general information

(1/2)

Minimum oil level warning on

the instrument panel

When the message “test of functions

being checked” appears on the instru-

ment panel, press one of the buttons 3

or 4.

If the level is above the minimum

level : the display shows “oil level cor-

rect accompanied by squares 1 which,

when the level drops, are replaced by

dashes 2.
note: the detailed level cannot be dis-

played if the vehicle was previously

only driven for a short time.

If the minimum level has been

reached: the message “Adjust oil level”

and warning light

lights up on

the instrument panel.

It is vital to top up the oil as soon as

possible.
note : To advance to trip computer

reading, press button 3 or 4 again.

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 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.

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.
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.

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

(2/2)

Reading the level using the

dipstick

– remove the dipstick (refer to the fol-

lowing pages for its location) and

wipe it 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

completely);

– take out the dipstick again;
– read the level: it should never fall

below minimum mark A or exceed

maximum mark B.

Consult your approved Dealer at

once if you notice an abnormal or

repeated drop in any of the fluid

levels.

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.

exceeding the maximum

engine oil level

The oil level should only be read with

the dipstick as explained above.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum

level,

do not start your vehicle and

contact an approved Dealer.

Under no circumstances

should maximum filling

level B be exceeded: this

could damage the engine

and the catalytic converter.

Deactivate the Stop and

topping up/filling

– Unscrew cap 1;
– top up the level (as a guide, the ca-

pacity between the minimum and

maximum reading on the dipstick 2

is between 1.5 and 2 litres, depend-

ing on the engine);

enGIne OIL LeVeL: topping up/filling

(1/2)

topping 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).

engine oil grade
Refer to the Maintenance Document for

your vehicle.

Do not exceed the “maximum” level

and do not forget to refit the cap 1

and dipstick 2.

To prevent splashback, you are rec-

ommended to use a funnel to top up

the oil.

– wait for approximately 20 minutes to

allow the oil to flow into the engine;

– check the level using the dipstick 2

(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.
