2. Engine oil exhausted
(Multijet versions with DPF only)
The warning light will turn on flashing together with
the message on the display (for versions/markets
where provided). Depending on the versions, the
warning light flashing modes are as follows:
1 minute every two hours;
cycles of 3 minutes with intervals with the warning
light off for 5 seconds until the oil is changed.
After the first indication, at each engine start up the
warning light will continue flashing as described
above until the oil is changed. For (versions/markets
where provided), the display shows a dedicated
message together with the warning light.
The flashing of the warning light should not be
considered as a fault, it simply informs the customer
that the oil needs to be changed following normal car
use.
Remember that the deterioration of the engine oil is
accelerated by:
mainly town use of the car which makes the DPF
regeneration process more frequent;
use of the vehicle for short drives, in which the
engine does not have time to reach its regular
operating temperature;
repeated interruption of the regeneration process,
signalled by the DPF warning light coming on.
WARNING
If the warning light comes on, the
exhausted engine oil should be changed
as soon as possible, never drive more than 500
km from the first switching-on of this warning
light. Failure to observe the above may result in
severe damage to the engine and invalidate
the warranty. Remember that the operation of
this warning light is not related to the amount
of oil in the engine.Therefore, do not simply top
up when the light starts flashing.
For versions/markets where provided:
the warning light
switches on and flashes along
with the message on the display (where provided)
when the system detects that the engine oil is
exhausted.
The flashing of the warning light should not be
considered as a fault, it simply informs the driver that
oil needs to be changed after normal use of the car.
If the oil is not changed, when a second
deterioration threshold is reached, the warning light
also switches on in the instrument panel and
the engine operation is limited to 3000 rpm.
If the oil is still not changed, when a third
deterioration threshold is reached, the engine is
limited to 1500 rpm to avoid damage.
