158VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
Used engine oil and re-
placed oil filters contain
substances which can
harm the environment. We rec-
ommend you have the vehicle
seen to at a Fiat Dealership for
the oil and filter change. It is suit-
ably equipped for disposing of
used oil and filters in an environ-
mentally-friendly way that com-
plies with the law.ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION
Max engine oil consumption is usu-
ally 400 grams every 1000 km.
During the beginning of the vehicle’s
life the engine is be tuned in. Engine oil
consumption can only be considered
stabilised after the first 5000 ÷ 6000
km.
IMPORTANTOil consumption
depends on the driving style and the
conditions of use. IMPORTANTIf, following a check
the engine oil if move the MAXlev-
el, go to a Fiat Dealershipto have
the correct level restored.
IMPORTANT After topping up or
changing the oil, let the engine turn for
a few seconds and wait a few minutes
after stopping it before you check the
level.

ENGINE COOLANT fig. 11
The cooling system is
pressurised. If necessary,
replace the cap only with
another genuine one, otherwise
system efficiency could be com-
promised. Do not remove the
reservoir cap when the engine is
hot: you risk scalding yourself.
The coolant level shall be checked
with cold engine and shall be within
the MINand MAXmarks on the
tank.
If the level is low, pour slowly a mix-
ture of 50% distilled water and 50%
PARAFLU UPof the FL Selenia
Group through the filler neck until the
level reaches MAX.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU UP
and distilled water gives freeze pro-
tection to –35°C.
For particularly hard climate condi-
tions, we recommend use of a 60%
PARAFLU UP and 40% deminer-
alized water mixture.

WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WASHER FLUID
To top up, remove the capA-fig. 12
and lift the telescopic filler B, until it
clicks.
Pour a mixture of water and
TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC
35, in the following concentrations:
30% of TUTELA PROFESSION-
AL SC 35and 70% of water in sum-
mer; 50% of TUTELA PROFES-
SIONAL SC 35and 50 of water in
winter. If the temperature falls below
–20°C, use TUTELA PROFES-
SIONAL SC 35undiluted.
fig. 12
F0A01263b
The engine cooling sys-
tem uses protective an-
tifreeze fluid PARAFLU
UP. Use the same fluid type as
that already in the cooling system
when topping up. PARAFLU UP
fluid cannot be mixed with any
other type of fluid. Should it hap-
pen, under no circumstances
start the engine; contact a Fiat
Dealership.

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.

When working on the
battery or near it, always

USEFUL ADVICE FOR
LENGTHENING THE LIFE OF
YOUR BATTERY
To avoid draining your battery and
lengthen its life, observe the follow-
ing indications:
– when you park the vehicle, ensure
the doors, tailgate and bonnet are
closed properly;If the vehicle is left inac-
tive for long periods at
cold, remove the battery
and store it in a warm place to
prevent freezing.
165VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANTA battery which is
kept at a charge of less than 50% for
any length of time will be damaged by
sulphation leading to a reduction in
cranking power and a higher risk of
the battery electrolyte freezing (this
may even occur at –10°C).
If the vehicle is inactive for a long pe-
riod of time, refer to the “Vehicle
storage” paragraph in section “Driving
your vehicle”.
If you want to add accessories after
buying the vehicle (alarm system, free-
hand phone kit, etc.) visit a Fiat Deal-
ership. They can suggest the most suit-
able accessories to get and check
whether the electric system can sup-
port the required load or whether a
larger capacity battery is required.
These devices will, in fact, run off the
battery even when the key is not in-
serted (vehicle parked) and can deploy
the battery. – the ceiling lights must be off. The
vehicle is however provided with an
automatic system for switching off in-
ternal 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 battery negative cable;
– battery terminals shall always be
perfectly tightened.

166VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
ELECTRONIC
CONTROL UNITS
When the vehicle is being used nor-
mally, special measures are not neces-
sary.
The following instructions must be
followed very carefully, however, if
you work on the electrical system or
in cases where emergency starting is
necessary:
– Never disconnect the battery from
the electrical system while the engine
is running.
– Disconnect the battery from the
electrical system if you are recharg-
ing it. The modern battery chargers
can discharge voltage up to 20V.
– Never perform emergency start-
ups with a battery charger. Always use
an auxiliary battery.
– Be particularly careful when con-
necting the battery to the electrical
system. Ensure the battery posts are
connected up to the right leads (the Battery Maximum
admitted
stand-by intake
40 Ah 24 mA
50 Ah 30 mA
60 Ah 36 mApolarity is correct) and check that the
connection has been made properly.
– Do not connect or disconnect the
terminals of the electronic units while
the ignition key is at MAR.
– Do not check polarity through
sparking.
– Disconnect the electronic units if
you are electrically welding the vehi-
cle body. Remove the units if temper-
atures exceed 80°C (special opera-
tions on the bodywork, etc.).
IMPORTANTIf the sound system
or alarm systems are not installed cor-
rectly, they can interfere with the
working of the electronic control
units.
Modifications or repairs
to the electrical system
carried out incorrectly
and without bearing the features
of the system in mind can cause
malfunctions with the risk of fire.
The total intake of these systems
(factory and after-market) must be less
than 0.6 mA x Ah (of the battery) as
shown in the following table:

Modifications or repairs
to the fuel system that
are not carried out prop-
erly or do not take the system

SPARK PLUGS
The cleanness and soundness of the
spark plugs are very important for
keeping the engine efficient and pol-
luting emissions down.
The appearance of the spark plug, if
examined by an expert eyes, is a good
way of pinpointing a problem even if it
has nothing to do with the ignition sys-
tem. Therefore, if the engine has prob-
lems, it is important to have the spark
plugs checked at a Fiat Dealership.
The spark plugs must be
changed at the times
specified in the service
schedule. Only use the type of
plugs indicated. If the heat ratio
is less than required or the life
specified is not guaranteed, prob-
lems can arise.
