Warning light (insufficient oil pressure) (03_04)
The vehicle is equipped with a warning light that comes on when the key is turned to
«
ON
». However, this light should switch off once the engine has been started.
If the
light comes on while braking, at idle speed or while turning a corner, it is nec-
essary to check the oil level and top it up if required. If after having topped-up
the oil, the warning light still comes on while braking, at idle speed or while
turning a corner, it will be necessary to take your vehicle to an Authorised Serv-
ice Centre.

Engine oil change (03_05, 03_06, 03_07)
The oil and the cartridge filter «
C
» must be changed as indicated in the scheduled
maintenance tables at an
Authorised Service Centre
. The engine should be emptied
by draining the oil through drainage plug «
B
» of the mesh filter on the flywheel side.
In order to facilitate oil drainage, loosen the cap/dipstick. Since a certain quantity of
oil still remains in the circuit, add approximately 1000 cm³ of oil through cap «
A
». Then
start up the vehicle, leave it running for a few minutes and switch it off: after about five
minutes check the level and if necessary top up
without exceeding the MAX level
.
The cartridge filter must be replaced every time the oil is changed. For top-ups and
changes, use new oil of the recommended type.
WARNING
RUNNING THE ENGINE WITH INSUFFICIENT LUBRICATION OR WITH INADE-
QUATE LUBRICANTS ACCELERATES THE WEAR AND TEAR OF THE MOVING
PARTS AND CAN CAUSE IRRETRIEVABLE DAMAGE.
