Washer Fluid For Windshield/
Headlights
If the level is too low, remove reservoir
cap and lift the filler. Then, add the fluid
described in "Technical Specifications".
Note:The headlight washing system will
not work if the liquid level is low
(situation indicated by the symbol on the
instrument cluster display). The
windshield washer will keep working.
On vehicles equipped with headlight
washers, if equipped, there is a reference
notch on the dipstick: ONLY the
windshield/rear window washer operates
with the level below this reference.
Brake Fluid
Check that the fluid is at the maximum
level. If the fluid level in the tank is low,
contact your authorized dealer to have
the system checked.
Automatic Transmission Activation
System Oil
The transmission control oil level should
only be checked at your authorized
dealer.
Useful Advice For Extending The Life
Of Your Battery
To avoid draining your battery and make
it last longer, observe the following
instructions:
When you park the vehicle, ensure that
the doors and liftgate are closed properly
to prevent any lights from remaining on
inside the passenger's compartment.
Do not keep accessories (e.g. radio,
hazard warning lights, etc.) switched on for
a long time when the engine is not running.
Before performing any operation on
the electrical system, disconnect the
negative battery cable.
If you wish to install electrical
accessories after purchasing the vehicle
that require permanent electrical supply
(e.g. alarm, etc.), or accessories which
influence the electrical supply
requirements, contact your authorized
dealer, whose qualified staff will evaluate
the overall electrical consumption.
Caution!
If the charge level remains under 50% for a
long time, the battery may be damaged by
sulphation, reducing its capacity and
efficiency at start the vehicle. The battery is
also more prone to the risk of freezing (at
temperatures as high as 14°F (-10°C).
Note:After the battery is disconnected,
the steering must be initialized. The
warning light on the instrument panel
switches on to indicate this. To carry out
this procedure, simply turn the steering
wheel all the way from one end to the
other, and then turn it back to the central
position.
Battery
The battery does not require the
electrolyte to be topped up with distilled
water. A periodic check carried out at an
authorized dealer, however, is necessary
to check efficiency.
Follow the battery manufacturer's
instructions for maintenance.
Replacing The Battery
If necessary, replace the battery with
another original battery with the same
specifications. Follow the battery
manufacturer’s instructions for
maintenance.
