Refer to the Maintenance Service Booklet for your vehicle.
| 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. |
| When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in the park position. Risk of injury |
| The engine may be hot
when carrying out operations
in close proximity. In
addition, the engine cooling
fan can come on at any moment. Risk of injury. |
| Consult your approved dealer at once if you notice an abnormal or repeated drop in any of the fluid levels. |
| Exceeding the maximum

| 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. |
