Engine Oil - Alfa Romeo 147 Owner's Manual

ENGINE OIL (fig. 5-6-7)
The engine oil should be checked with the
car on a level surface a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has been switched off.
Remove the dipstick (A), clean it, put it
back in completely, remove it and check that
the level is within the MIN and MAX
marks on the dipstick. The interval between
the MIN and MAX marks correspond to
about one litre of oil.
WARNING
When the engine is hot,
take care when working
inside the engine compartment to
avoid burns. Remember that when
the engine is hot, the fan may cut
in: danger of injury.
fig. 5 - T.SPARK versions
Do not add oil with spec-
ifications (classification,
viscosity) other than those
of the oil already in the engine.
If the oil level is near or even below the
MIN mark, add oil through the filter neck
(B), until reaching the MAX mark.

gine a few seconds and wait for a few min-
