The Selespeed transmission oil should be
checked with the car on a level surface and
with the engine stopped and cold. 
To check the level, proceed as follows: 
– turn the ignition key to 
MAR;
– disconnect the breather tube and re-
move the cap (
A) checking that the level
corresponds with the 
MAX mark on the dip-
stick integrated with the cap; 
– if the oil is below the 
MAX mark, top
up to reach the correct level; 
– after refitting the cap, insert the breather
tube firmly on the housing on the cap and
turn the ignition to 
STOP.
Do not add oil with spec-
ifications other than that

Engine oil consumption
Max engine oil consumption is usually 400
grams every 1000 km. 
During the initial period of use the engine
settles, therefore engine oil consumption
may be considered stabilised only after the
first 5000 ÷ 6000 km. 
IMPORTANT Engine oil consumption de-
pends on the way of driving and the condi-
tions of use of the car.
