TOPPING UP AdBlue® DIESEL
EMISSIONS ADDITIVE
(Diesel versions only)
(where provided)
71)
Preliminary conditions
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures lower
than -11°C. If the car stands for a long
time at this temperature refilling could
be difficult.
Proceed as follows:
park the car on flat ground and stop
the engine by setting the start device in
the OFF position;
open the fuel flap A fig. 117, then
undo and remove the cap B (blue) from
the AdBlue® filler.Proceed as follows:
insert the AdBlue® nozzle in the filler,
start refilling and stop refilling at the first
shut-off (the shut-off indicates that the
AdBlue® tank is full). Do not proceed
with the refilling, to prevent spillage of
AdBlue®;
extract the nozzle.
Refilling with containers
Proceed as follows:
check the expiration date;
read the advice for use on the label
before pouring the content of the bottle
into the AdBlue® tank;
if systems which cannot be screwed
in (e.g. tanks) are used for refilling, after
the indication appears on the
instrument panel display (see “Warning
lights and messages" paragraph in the
“Knowing the instrument panel”
chapter), fill the AdBlue® tank with no
more than 7.5 litres;
if containers which can be screwed
to the filler are used, the reservoir is full
when the AdBlue® level in the container
stops pouring out. Do not proceed
further.
Operations after refilling
Proceed as follows:
fit the cap B fig. 117back on the
AdBlue® filler by turning it clockwise
and screwing it completely;
set the ignition device to MAR (it is
not necessary to start the engine);
wait for the indication on the
instrument panel to switch off before
moving the car. The indication may stay
on for a few seconds to approximately
half a minute. If the engine is started
and the car is moved, the indication will
remain on for longer. This will not
compromise engine operation;
if the AdBlue® was topped up when
the tank was empty, see the “Refuelling
” paragraph in the “Technical
Specifications” chapter and wait for
2 minutes before starting the engine.
IMPORTANT If AdBlue® is spilled out of
the filler neck, clean up well the area
and proceed to filling up again. If the
liquid crystallises, eliminate it with a
sponge and warm water.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM
LEVEL: this could cause damage to
the reservoir. AdBlue® freezes at
under -11 °C. Although the system
is designed to operate below the
freezing point of the AdBlue®, it is
advisable not to fill the tank beyond
the maximum level because if the
AdBlue® freezes the system can be
damaged. Follow the instructions in
this paragraph.

If the AdBlue® is spilled on
painted surfaces or aluminium,
immediately clean the area with
water and use absorbent material
to collect the fluid that has been
spilled on the ground.
Do not try to start the engine if
AdBlue® was accidentally added to
the Diesel fuel tank, this can result
in serious engine damage, contact
a Fiat Dealership.
Do not add additives or other
fluids to AdBlue®, doing so could
damage the system.
The use of non-conforming or
degraded AdBlue® may lead to
indications appearing on the
instrument panel display (see
“Warning lights and messages"
paragraph in the “Knowing the
instrument panel” chapter).
Never pour AdBlue® into another
container: it could be
contaminated.
In case of damage to the sewage
system of exhaust gas resulting
from the use of additives / tap
water, the introduction of diesel
fuel, or at least by not fulfilling the
requirements, the warranty expires.
If the AdBlue® runs out, see
“Warning lights and messages"
paragraph in the “Knowing the
instrument panel” chapter tocontinue using the car normally.
AdBlue® storage
AdBlue® is considered a very stable
product with a long shelf life. Stored at
temperatures LOWER than 32°C, it has
a shelf life of at least one year.
Follow the instructions on the label of
the container.

WARNING
136)Do not apply any object/plug to the
end of the filler which is not provided for
the car. The use of non-compliant
objects/plugs could cause a pressure
increase inside the tank, resulting in
dangerous situations.
137)Do not bring naked flames or lit
cigarettes near to the fuel filler: fire risk.
Keep your face away from the fuel filler to
prevent breathing in harmful vapours.
138)Do not use a mobile phone near the
refuelling pump: risk of fire.
IMPORTANT
70)Vehicles with a diesel engine must only
be filled with diesel fuel for motor vehicles,
in compliance with European Standard EN
590. The use of other products or mixtures
may damage the engine beyond repair and
consequently invalidate the warranty, due
to the damage caused. If you accidentally
introduce other types of fuel into the tank,
do not start the engine. Empty the tank. If
the engine has been run for even an
extremely limited amount of time, you must
not only drain the fuel tank, but the rest of
the supply circuit as well.71)If the
AdBlue®overheats for a
prolonged period inside the tank to over 50
°C (for example, due to direct solar
irradiation), the
AdBlue®may decompose
and produce ammonia vapours. Ammonia
vapours have a pungent odour when the
cap of the
AdBlue®tank is unscrewed,
therefore be careful not to inhale any
ammonia vapours in the tank outlet. In this
concentration, however, the ammonia
vapors are not harmful or dangerous to
health.
AdBlue®(UREA)
ADDITIVE FOR
DIESEL EMISSIONS
The car may be equipped with an
AdBlue® (UREA) injection system and
Selective Catalytic Reduction to meet
emission standards, where provided.
These two systems ensure compliance
with the diesel emissions requirements;
at the same, they ensure fuel-efficiency,
handling, torque and power. For
messages and system warnings, refer
to the "Warning lights and messages"
paragraph in the "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter.
AdBlue® (UREA) is considered a very
stable product with a long shelf life.
Stored at temperatures LOWER than
32 °C, it has a shelf life of at least one
year.
For more information on the AdBlue®
liquid type, see the “Fluids and
lubricants” paragraph in the “Technical
specifications” chapter.
The car is provided with an automatic
AdBlue® heating system when the
engine starts allowing the system to
work correctly at temperatures lower
than -11 °C.
IMPORTANT AdBlue® freezes at
temperatures lower than -11 °C.

CHANGING A WHEEL
JACK
154) 155)
Please note that:
the jack weight is 2.8 kg;
the jack requires no adjustment;
the jack cannot be repaired and in
the event of a fault it must be replaced
by another genuine one;
no tool other than its cranking device
may be fitted on the jack.
Maintenance
prevent any dirt from depositing on
the "worm screw";
keep the "worm screw" lubricated;
never modify the jack.
Conditions for non-use
temperatures below −40°C;
on sandy or muddy ground;
on uneven ground;
on steep roads;
in extreme weather conditions:
thunderstorms, typhoons, hurricanes,
blizzards, storms, etc...
in direct contact with the engine or
for repairs under the car;
on boats.
CHANGING PROCEDURE
147) 148) 149) 150) 151) 152) 153)
Proceed as follows:
stop the car in a position that is not
dangerous for oncoming traffic where
you can change the wheel safely. The
ground must be flat and sufficiently
compact;
stop the engine, engage the hazard
warning lights and the electric parking
brake;
engage first gear or reverse or, for
versions with automatic transmission,
move the lever to position P (Park);
wear the reflective safety jacket
(compulsory by law) before getting out
of the car;
open the luggage compartment and
set the adjustable load platform in the
diagonal position (see "Luggage
Compartment" section of the "Getting
to know your car" chapter);
take out the tool bag supplied,
anchored to the boot mat by special
fasteners. The bag contains fig. 136:
jack A; screwdriver B; adaptor C for
refuelling in the event of an emergency;
pin D for centring the wheel (where
provided, to be used in the spare wheel
fitting procedure); special anti-theft nut
E (where provided, to be used in the
wheel stud bolt fitting/removal
procedure); chock F for blocking the
163
Page 169 of 284
152)The space-saver wheel cannot be
fitted with snow chains. If a front (drive) tyre
is punctured and chains are needed, use a
standard wheel from the rear axle and
install the space-saver wheel on the rear
axle. In this way, with two normal drive
wheels at the front axle, it is possible to
use snow chains (this instruction is also
valid for 4x4 versions).
153)Never tamper with the inflation valve.
Never introduce tools of any kind between
the rim and the tyre. Check tyre and
space-saver wheel pressures regularly,
complying with the values given in the
"Technical specifications" chapter.
154)The jack is a tool developed and
designed only for changing a wheel, if a
tyre gets punctured or damaged, on the
vehicle with which it is supplied or on other
vehicles of the same model. Any other use,
e.g. to jack up other vehicle models or
different things, is strictly prohibited. Never
use it to carry out maintenance or repairs
under the vehicle or to change
summer/winter wheels and vice versa: we
advise you to contact a Fiat Dealership.
Never go under the raised vehicle: use it
only in the positions indicated. Do not use
the jack for loads higher than the one
shown on its label. Never start the engine
with car raised. If the car is raised more
than necessary, everything can become
more unstable, with the risk of the car
dropping violently. Thus, lift the car only as
needed in order to access the space-saver
spare wheel.155)When turning the jack handle make
sure that it can turn freely without scraping
your hand against the ground. The moving
components of the jack ("worm screw" and
joints) can also cause injuries: do not touch
them. If you come into contact with
lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.FIX&GO KIT
