WIPERS
BLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part using
special products; TUTELA PROFES-
SIONAL SC 35 is recommended.
If the rubber blades are bent or worn they
should be replaced. In any case they should
be changed once a year.
A few simple notions can reduce the pos-
sibility of damage to the blades:
❒if the temperature fall below zero,
make sure that ice has not frozen the
rubber against glass. If necessary, thaw
using an antifreeze product;
❒remove any snow from the glass: in ad-
dition to protecting the blades, this
prevents effort on the motor and
overheating;
❒do not operate the windscreen and
rear window wipers on dry glass.

Driving with worn wiper
blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.

LEATHER COVERING
These components shall only be cleaned
with water and neutral soap. Never use
spirit or alcohol-based products.
Before using special products for clean-
ing interiors, read carefully label instruc-
tions and indications to make sure they
are free from spirit and/or alcohol-based
substances.
If when cleaning the windscreen with spe-
cial glass products, some drops fall on the
leather covering of the steering wheel/gear
lever knob remove them immediately and
then clean with water and neutral soap.
IMPORTANT Take the utmost care when
engaging the steering lock to prevent
scratching the leather covering.INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
Use appropriate products designed to
preserve the appearance of components.
IMPORTANT Never use spirit or petro-
leum to clean the instrument panel. If the stain persists, use specific products,
carefully following the instructions for use.
IMPORTANT Never use spirit or alcohol-
based products.
Never use flammable prod-
ucts like oil ether or rectified
petrol for cleaning car interiors. Elec-
trostatic discharges generated by rub-
bing during cleaning operations could
cause fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol cans in
the car: they might explode.
Aerosol cans must never be exposed
to a temperature above 50°C. The
temperature inside the car exposed
to the sun may go well beyond that
figure.

Lubricant for
Multijet engines
For regular operation of Multijet versions fitted with DPF, use the genuine lubricant only. In the event of an emergency, lacking
the genuine lubricant, top up just once with max. 0.5 l and go to Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
Should non-genuine SAE 5W-40 products be used, lubricants with minimum ACEA A3 properties for petrol engines and ACEA
B4 for Diesel engines are tolerated; in this event top engine performance is not guaranteed.
Using low-quality products, not compliant with ACEA A3 and ACEA B4 properties and specifications could cause engine damages
not covered by warranty.
For very cold temperatures, consult Fiat Dealership for the proper Seleniaproduct to use.
