(*) If SAE 5W-40 non original products are used, lubricants with minimum ACEA A3 standards for petrol engines, ACEA B4 for diesel engines are acceptable; in this case the optimum engine performance is not guaranteed.

The use of products with lower specifications than ACEA A3 and ACEA B4 could cause damage to the engine not covered by the warranty.

For the correct operation of Multijet versions with DPF, only use the original type of lubricant. In emergencies, where the original product is not available, only top up with a maximum of 0.5 litres.
