When changing the engine oil, change also the filter (See “4.7.10.b CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL FILTER”). Proceed as follows: 1 - Open the engine hood (See “3.5.1 ENGINE HOOD”). 2 - Remove the drain plug (1) of the oil pan, gathering the used oil that flows out into a container with suitable capacity. (Use a 19 mm spanner). While the oil flows out, remove the filling cap (2), so that the oil can flow freely. 3 - Change the filter (See “4.7.10.b CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL FILTER”). 4 - Tighten the plug (1) onto the pan and pour the prescribed quantity of new oil, using the dipstick (3) to make sure that the oil reaches the MAX. level.
5 - Put back the filling cap (2), start the engine, let it run for 5 minutes and then stop it. Check the level again and top up if necessary. 6 - Close the engine hood. Use oil suitable for the ambient temperature. (See “4.3 FUEL, COOLANT AND LUBRICANTS”). MAX. MIN.
