Engine oil:
S
When the ignition is switched on, control indicator will illuminate briefly. If the control indicator
illuminates continuously or whilst driving, the engine oil needs topping up immediately.
However, check engine oil level manually on a regular basis, to prevent damage to the engine. Ensure that the
correct specification of oil is used.
Check the oil with vehicle on a level surface. Engine must be at operating temperature and switched off for at
least 5 minutes.
Pull out dipstick, wipe clean, insert to stop on the handle, pull out and read engine oil level. Insert dipstick to
stop on handle and make half a turn.
Caution:
It is the owner's responsibility to maintain the correct level of an appropriate quality oil in the engine.
Tyre pressure:
Check tyre pressures, including the spare, every 14 days and prior to any long journey; tyres should be
checked when cold. This also applies to vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring system.
Always inflate the spare tyre to the value specified for full load.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair safety, vehicle handling, comfort and fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear.
