Engine oil change (03_03)
Have oil changed and the cartridge filter « C » replaced as indicated in the scheduled
maintenance table at an Authorised Service Centre . The engine should be emptied
by draining the oil from the drainage plug « B » of the gauze filter on the flywheel side.
In order to facilitate the oil drainage, loosen the cap/dipstick. Since a certain quantity
of oil still remains in the circuit, filling must be done with approx. 950 ÷ 1000 cm³ of oil
through the cap «
A . Then start up the engine, leave it running for a few minutes and
shut it off: after five minutes, check the level and if necessary, top-up without ex-
ceeding the MAX. level . The cartridge filter must be replaced at every oil change.
For top-ups and changes, use new oil of the recommended type.
