Checking engine oil
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with the
car parked on level ground.
Remove the dipstick Aand clean it, put
it back in completely, remove it and check
that the level is within the MINand MAX
marks on the dipstick. The interval be-
tween the MINand MAXmarks corre-
sponds to about one litre of oil.
fig. 5 - 1.4 16V version F0Q0665m
Topping up engine oil
If the oil level is near or even below the
MINmark, add oil through the filler neck
B, until reaching the MAXmark.
Oil level shall never exceed the MAX
mark.
IMPORTANT If a routine check reveals
that the oil level is above the MAXmark,
contact Fiat Dealership to have the cor-
rect level restored.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing
the oil, let the engine turn over for a few
seconds and wait a few minutes after turn-
ing it off before you check the level.

Engine oil consumption
Max engine oil consumption is usually 400
grams every 1000 km.
When the car is new, the engine needs
to run in, therefore the engine oil con-
sumption can only be considered stabilised
after the first 5000 - 6000 km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption de-
pends on driving style and the conditions
under which the car is used.
IMPORTANT Do not add oil with speci-
fications other than that already in the en-
gine.

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 in-
jury. Scarves, ties and other loose
clothing might be pulled by moving
parts.
WARNING
Used engine oil and filter con-
tain harmful substances for
the environment. Contact Fi-
at Dealership to have the oil
and filter changed.
ENGINE COOLANT FLUID
fig. 9-10
The coolant level shall be checked with
cold engine and shall not be lower than
the MINmark on the reservoir.
If the level is low, pour slowly a mixture
of 50% distilled water and 50%
PARAFLU
UPof the FL Seleniathrough
the filler neck A.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU
UPand dis-
tilled water gives freeze protection to
–35°C.
For particularly hard climate conditions, we
recommend use of a 60% PARAFLU
UP
and 40% demineralized water mixture.
fig. 9 - 1.4 16V version F0Q0617mfig. 10 - 1.4 T-JET and 1.9 Multijet version F0Q0619m
The cooling system uses
PARAFLUUPantifreeze. Do
not add fluid having different
specifications from that al-
ready existing. PARAFLU
UPcannot be
mixed with other types of fluids. Should
other fluids be added, do not start the
engine and contact Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible.
Do not remove the reservoir
cap when the engine is hot:
you risk scalding yourself. The cool-
ing system is pressurised. If necessary,
replace the cap only with another
genuine one, otherwise system effi-
ciency could be compromised.

ty. The windscreen washer is funda-
mental for improving visibility.
WARNING
Certain commercial addi-
tives for windscreen washers
are inflammable. The engine com-
partment contains hot components
which may set it on fire.
WARNING
BRAKE FLUID fig. 12
Unscrew cap Aand check that the fluid
level in the reservoir is at maximum.
Fluid level in the reservoir shall not exceed
the MAXmark.
If fluid has to be added, it is suggested to
use the brake fluid in table “Fluids and lu-
bricants” (see chapter “Technical specifi-
cations”). When opening cap Atake the
utmost care to prevent impurities enter-
ing the tank.
For topping up, always use a funnel with
integrated filter with mesh equal to or
lower than 0.12 mm.
fig. 12F0Q0664m
Check level through the reservoir.
For versions fitted with headlight wash-
er, remove the filter and the relevant dip-
stick. Use the dipstick to check the fluid
level inside the reservoir.

USEFUL ADVICE
FOR LENGTHENING THE LIFE
OF YOUR BATTERY
To avoid draining your battery and length-
en its life, observe the following indica-
tions:
❒ when you park the car, ensure the
doors, tailgate and bonnet are closed
properly;
❒ the ceiling lights must be off. The car
is however provided with an automat-
ic system for switching off internal
lights;
❒ do not keep accessories (e.g.: sound
system, hazard lights, etc.) switched on
for a long time when the engine is not
running;
❒ before performing any operation on the
electrical system, disconnect the bat-
tery negative cable;
❒ battery terminals shall always be per-
fectly tightened.Moreover, this might lead to a higher risk
of the battery electrolyte freezing (this
may even occur at -10°C). If the car is in-
active for a long period of time, refer to
“Car inactivity”, in section “Correct use
of the car”.
If after buying the car, you want to install
electric accessories which require per-
manent electric supply (alarm, etc.) con-
tact Fiat Dealership whose qualified per-
sonnel, in addition to suggesting the most
suitable devices, will evaluate the overall
electric absorption, checking whether the
car’s electric system is capable of with-
standing the load required, or whether it
should be integrated with a more power-
ful battery. In fact, since these devices continue ab-
sorbing energy even when the ignition key
is off, they gradually run down the battery.

Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic sub-
stances (e.g.: petrol) or ketones (e.g.: ace-
tone) for cleaning front headlight plastic
lens.
Windows
Use specific window cleaner product. Use
also clean cloths to avoid scratching the
glass or damaging the transparency.
IMPORTANT The inside of the rearscreen
should be wiped gently with a cloth in the
direction of the filaments to avoid damag-
ing the heating device.Engine compartment
At the end of the winter the engine com-
partment should be carefully washed,
without directing the jet against electron-
ic control units. Contact a specialised
workshop to have this done.
IMPORTANT The car should be washed
with the engine cold and the ignition key
at STOP. After washing make sure that
the various protections (e.g. rubber caps
and various covers) have not been dam-
aged or removed.INTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not trapped
under the mats (due to water dripping off
shoes, umbrellas, etc.) which could cause
oxidisation of the sheet metal.
CLEANING SEATS AND FABRIC
AND VELVET PARTS
Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to re-
move dust. Velvet is cleaned better if the
brush is moistened.
Rub the seats with a sponge moistened
with a solution of water and neutral de-
tergent.
