level indication before long journeys.
The engine oil level can be seen on the
instrument panel display every time the
engine is started, or on the Connect
system display using the "Vehicle
Information" widget.
Use the 6 segments on the display to
check that the oil level is between MIN
and MAX level: 1 segment = MIN level,
6 segments = MAX level. If the oil level
indication reaches the first red mark,
add oil through the filler 1, considering
that each notch shown on the display
corresponds to approximately:

If the symbol and the corresponding
indication "Insufficient engine oil level"
light up on the display, top up 1 litre of oil
as soon as possible.
