KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY CORRECT USE OF THE CAR WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY CAR MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS YEARLY INSPECTION SCHEDULE ADDITIONAL INTERVENTIONS For cars with an annual mileage of below 20,000 km (for example about 15,000 km) the following yearly inspection schedule is advised: ❒ check conditions/wear of tyres and adjust pressure if necessary (including spare wheel); ❒ check lighting system operation (headlights, direction indicators, hazard warning lights, boot
❒ frequently idling engine or long distance low speed driving (e.g. taxis or door-to-door deliveries) or in case of a long term inactivity; change engine oil more frequently than required on the “Scheduled Servicing Programme”. IMPORTANT – Diesel filter The possibility of topping-up with diesel fuel not complying with EN590 European Standard might make it necessary to replace the filter more frequently than indicated in the “Scheduled Servicing Programme”.
KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY LEVEL CHECK WARNING Never smoke while working in the engine compartment: gas and inflammable vapours may be present, with the risk of fire. CORRECT USE OF THE CAR WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY CAR MAINTENANCE Be careful, when topping-up and take care not to confuse the various types of fluids: they are all incompatible with one another and could seriously damage the car.

KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY CORRECT USE OF THE CAR ENGINE OIL fig. 174-175 ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Check the oil level a few minutes (about five) after the engine has stopped, with the car parked on level ground. The oil level must be within the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick B. The range between the MIN. and MAX. marks corresponds to about 1 litre of oil. If the oil level is close to or actually below the MIN. mark, pour in the prescribed oil through the filler A until it reaches the MAX mark.
ENGINE COOLANT fig. 176 and 177 WARNING When the engine is hot, take care when working inside the engine compartment to avoid burns. Remember that when the engine is hot, the fan may cut in: danger of injury. Scarves, ties and other loose clothing might be pulled by moving parts. Never add any oil with different specifications than those of the existing engine oil. Used engine oil and the replaced oil filter contain substances that may be dangerous for the environment.
KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY CORRECT USE OF THE CAR WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES The engine cooling system uses protective antifreeze fluid PARAFLUUP. Use the same fluid as in the cooling system when topping up. PARAFLUUP fluid cannot be mixed with any other type of fluid. If this accidentally occurs, do not start the engine and contact a Fiat Dealership. WARNING The engine cooling system is pressurised.
BRAKE FLUID fig. 179 Undo the cap A and check that the liquid contained in the reservoir is at the maximum level. Fluid level in the reservoir must not exceed the MAX mark. Prevent brake fluid which is highly corrosive from coming into contact with painted parts. Should this occur, immediately wash with water. SAFETY Use the brake fluid shown in the “Fluids and lubricants” table (see “Technical Specifications”). NOTE Carefully clean the reservoir cap A and the surrounding surface.
KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY AIR FILTER REPLACEMENT (1.3 Multijet 75HP versions) fig. 182 - 183 REPLACEMENT (1.2 versions) fig. 180 - 181 Undo the screws D, remove the cover E and extract the filtering element F to be replaced.

POLLEN FILTER BATTERY Pollen filter replacement shall be carried out at a Fiat Dealership. The car fits a low-maintenance battery: no top-ups with distilled water are needed in standard conditions of use. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE INSPECTING THE CHARGE AND THE ELECTROLYTE LEVEL SAFETY The operations must be carried out as described in this Owner Handbook only by skilled personnel. Any top-up operations must be carried out by skilled personnel and by a Fiat Dealership.
KNOW YOUR VEHICLE WARNING Using the battery when the fluid is too low can damage it irreparably and generate a risk of explosion. Batteries contain substances that can be very dangerous for the environment. It is advisable to have battery replaced by a Fiat Dealership where it will be disposed respecting the environment and according to law prescription.
❒ the ceiling lights must be off. The car is however provided with an automatic system for switching-off internal lights; ❒ do not keep accessories (e.g. sound system, hazard warning lights, etc...) switched on for a long time when the engine is not running; ❒ before performing any operation on the electric system, disconnect the battery negative cable; ❒ battery terminals shall always be perfectly tightened.
KNOW YOUR VEHICLE The tyres must be replaced when the tread is less than 1.6 mm thick. In all cases, follow the laws in force in the country where you are driving. ❒ to allow even wear between the front and rear tyres, it is advisable to change them over every 10–15 thousand kilometres, keeping them on the same side of the car so as not to reverse the direction of rotation.
RUBBER HOSES As far as the brake system and fuel rubber hoses are concerned, follow the “Scheduled Servicing Programme” in this chapter carefully. Ozone, high temperatures and prolonged lack of fluid in the system may cause hardening and cracking of the hoses, with possible leaks. Careful control is therefore necessary. WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW WIPER/WASHER KNOW YOUR VEHICLE BLADES Periodically clean the rubber part using special products; TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35 is recommended.

Windscreen washer fig. 187 If the jet of fluid is inadequate, firstly check that there is fluid in the reservoir: (see “Checking fluid levels” in this chapter). The nozzle holder is on the rear window. SAFETY Then check that the nozzle holes are not clogged, if necessary clean them using a needle. CORRECT USE OF THE CAR The windscreen jets are directed by adjusting the nozzle angle.
KNOW YOUR VEHICLE BODYWORK PROTECTION FROM ATMOSPHERIC AGENTS ❒ atmospheric pollution; ❒ Use of “open” boxed sections to prevent condensation and pockets of moisture which could cause triggering rust inside. ❒ salty air and humidity (coastal areas, or hot humid climates); BODY AND UNDERBODY WARRANTY The main causes of corrosion are the following: SAFETY CORRECT USE OF THE CAR WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES ❒ seasonal environmental conditions.
To correctly wash the vehicle, proceed as follows: Detergents cause water pollution. The vehicle should be washed in areas equipped for collecting and cleaning the liquid used in the washing process. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE ❒ wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy solution over the bodywork, frequently rinsing with the sponge; Glasses SAFETY ❒ rinse well with water and dry with a jet of air or a chamois leather. To clean glasses, use specific window cleaner products.
KNOW YOUR VEHICLE INTERIORS SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS Regularly check that water is not trapped under the mats (due to water dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.), as this would cause oxidation of the sheet metal. SAFETY Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner. It is advisable to use a moist brush on velvet upholstery. Rub the seats with a sponge moistened with a solution of water and neutral detergent.
