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.
