Engine Oil / Washer Fluid
Checking the engine oil level [7]
Warm up the engine to operating
temperature and switch off. On
level ground pull the dipstick out
and wipe clean before re inserting
it fully. Pull the dipstick out again
and check the level. The level
should be between F and L.
Refilling engine oil [7]
Only refill with the specified engine
oil [9], using a funnel to avoid
spillage on engine components.
Checking the washer fluid
level [7].
Note: 2.2 CRDi derivatives of the Stinger require a urea solution (also known as DEF (Diesel Exhaust
Fluid)) for emission control that is added to a separate tank. The filler for the urea tank is located
behind the fuel flap next to the diesel fuel filler.
If the Urea level is not regularly checked and topped up this may cause the vehicle not to start.
Urea solution level gauge* [7]
Low urea solution warning
message* [7]
When “Refill Urea tank or
vehicle will not start” message
is displayed with SCR warning
lamp ( ), the vehicle can’t be
restarted once the engine is
turned off. For the above cases,
full replenishment is always
recommended.
Adding the urea solution* [7]
Idle Stop & Go (ISG)
When enabled, ISG auto matically
stops the car’s engine to reduce
fuel consumption and emissions.
The ISG function may not work if
the car’s battery charge status,
ambient temperature and/or
engine temperature is too low. Air
conditioning/heater control settings
may also affect ISG function.
Bluetooth®
Many of our cars have
Bluetooth® connectivity to
enable the driver to safely
enjoy the convenience of the
mobile phone. For Bluetooth®
compatibility please visit the
owners section on our website.

Parking brake (EPB)
When engaging the parking
brake, apply the brake pedal
first and keep it depressed.
Then ensure the electric
parking brake is properly
applied by lifting up the EPB
switch and make sure the
warning light comes on.
We strongly recommend that
when leaving the car both the
transmission P (Park) mode
and Electric Parking Brake
(EPB) are applied.
Starting your vehicle with
the parking brake applied:
Make sure the automatic
transaxle is in the P (Park)
position and the brake pedal
fully depressed before starting
the vehicle.
Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)
This is designed to assist with hill
starts by preventing the car rolling
backwards when driving off. The
system maintains the braking
pressure in certain circumstances
for 2 seconds enabling to pull
away when you are ready.
