gine, gearbox, transmission, pipes and
hoses (exhaust - fuel - brakes), rubber
parts (boots, sleeves, bushes, etc)
brake and fuel hoses.
– check battery charge.
– visual check on various drive belt
conditions.
– check and top up, if required, fluid
levels (engine coolant, brake fluid,
windscreen washer fluid, battery fluid,
etc.).
– change engine oil.
– change engine oil filter.
– replace pollen filter (where pro-
vided).
ADDITIONAL
CHECKS
Every 1,000 kmor before long
trips, check and top up as necessary:
engine coolant level, brake fluid level,
windscreen washer liquid level, tyre
pressure and conditions.
Every 3,000 km check and top up
as necessary: engine oil level.

157VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
ENGINE OIL fig. 6, 7, 8
Check engine oil with the vehicle on
level ground and while the engine is
still warm (approximately 5 minutes
after stopping the engine.
The oil level should be included be-
tween the MINand MAXreference
marks on the dipstick.
The space between MINand MAX
equals about 1 litre of oil.If the oil level is near or actually be-
low the MINmark, add oil through
the filler until it reaches the MAX
mark.
Oil level shall never exceed the
MAXmark. Be very careful under
the bonnet: you risk burn-
ing yourself. Remember
that when the engine is hot, the
fan can start up and cause in-
juries.
Do not add oil with dif-
ferent specifications from
the oil already in the en-
gine.

160VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
Prevent brake fluid,
which is highly corrosive,
from coming into contact
with painted parts. Should it hap-
pen, immediately wash with wa-
ter.
Check that fluid contained in tank is
at maximum level. If fluid has to be
added, it is suggested to use the brake
fluid in table "Fluids and lubricants"
(see chapter "Technical characteris-
tics"). At plug opening, pay maximum
attention in order to prevent any im-
purities from entering the tank.
For topping up, always use a funnel
with integrated filter with mesh equal
to or lower than 0.12 mm.

POWER STEERING FLUID
fig. 13
The oil level with the vehicle on lev-
el ground and engine cold should be
included between the references MIN
and MAXon the reservoir.
When the oil is hot, the level can ex-
ceed the reference line MAX.
When topping up (where necessary)
make sure that the oil has the same
specifications as the oil in the system.Do not travel with the
windscreen washer reser-
voir empty. The wind-
screen washer is fundamental for
improving visibility.
fig. 13
F0A0261b
Do not let the power
steering fluid come into
contact with hot engine
parts. It catches fire very easily.
Oil consumption is ex-
tremely low. If the oil lev-
el needs topping up again
a s short period of time, have the
system checked for leakage at a
Fiat Dealership.
BRAKE/HYDRAULIC
CLUTCH FLUID fig. 14-15
Check that the level of the fluid in the
reservoir is at the maximum.
Use DOT 4 fluid only for topping up.
We recommend TUTELA TOP 4
that the braking system was originally
filled with.
