147IN AN EMERGENCY
IF AN ACCIDENT
OCCURS
– It is important to keep calm.
– If you are not directly involved in
the accident, stop at least ten metres
away from the accident.
– If you are on a motorway, do not
obstruct the emergency lane with
your vehicle.
– Turn off the engine and turn on the
hazard lights.
– At night, illuminate the scene of the
accident with your headlights.
– Act carefully, you must not risk be-
ing run over.
– Mark the accident by putting the
red triangle at the regulatory distance
from the vehicle where it can be clear-
ly seen.
– Call for rescue making the infor-
mation you give as accurate as you
can. On the motorway use the special
column-mounted emergency phones. When towing the vehi-
cle, you must comply with
the specific traffic regula-
tions regarding the tow hitch and
how to tow on the road.
Before starting to tow,
turn the ignition key to
MAR and then to STOP.
Do not remove the key. If the key
is removed, the steering lock en-
gages automatically which pre-
vents the wheels being turned.
While the vehicle is be-
ing towed with the engine
off, remember that the
brake pedal and steering will re-
quire more effort as you no
longer have the benefit of the
power brakes and power steer-
ing. Do not use flexible cables to
tow. Avoid jerking. Whilst tow-
ing, ensure that the coupling to
the vehicle does not damage the
surrounding components.

lights, direction indicators, hazard
lights, boot lights, passenger compart-
ment lights, glovebox light, warning
lights, etc.).
– check windscreen wiper/washer

hoses (exhaust - fuel - brakes), rubber
parts (boots, sleeves, bushes, etc)
brake and fuel hoses.

153VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT - Engine oil
Should prevailing use of the vehicle
be under one of the following special-
ly heavy conditions:
– towing a trailer
– on dirty roads
– for short, repeated trips (less than
7-8 km) with outside temperature be-
low zero
– frequently idling engines or long
distance low speed driving (e.g. taxis
or door-to-door deliveries) or in case
of a long term inactivity; replace en-
gine oil more frequently than required
on Service schedule
IMPORTANT - Air cleaner
If the vehicle is used on dusty roads
change the air cleaner more frequently
than the indications in the Service
schedule. If in doubt as to how often
the engine oil and air cleaner should
be changed according to how you use
the vehicle, contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship.IMPORTANT - Pollen filter
If the vehicle is used frequently in
dusty or heavily polluted environ-
ments it is advisable to replace the fil-
tering element more frequently; in
particular it should be replaced if a re-
duction of the amount of air admitted
to the passenger compartment is not-
ed.
IMPORTANT - Battery
The charge in your battery should be
checked, where possible at the start
of the winter, to limit the risk of the
battery electrolyte freezing. This check
should be carried out more frequent-
ly if the vehicle is mainly used for short
trips or if it is fitted with accessories
that permanently take in electricity
even when the ignition key is re-
moved, especially in the case of after
market accessories.You should check the battery fluid
(electrolyte) level more frequently
than shown in the service schedule in
this chapter if the vehicle is used in hot
climates or particularly demanding
conditions.
Maintenance of your ve-
hicle should be entrusted
to a Fiat Dealership. For
ordinary routine maintenance
operations which you are able to
carry out yourself, ensure that
you have the necessary tools and
original Fiat spare parts and flu-
ids available. Do not carry out
servicing operations if you have
no experience.

ENGINE OIL fig. 6, 7, 8
Check engine oil with the vehicle on
level ground and while the engine is
still warm (approximately 5 minutes
after stopping the engine.
The oil level should be included be-
tween the MINand MAXreference
marks on the dipstick.
The space between MINand MAX
equals about 1 litre of oil.If the oil level is near or actually be-
low the MINmark, add oil through
the filler until it reaches the MAX
mark.
Oil level shall never exceed the
MAXmark. Be very careful under
the bonnet: you risk burn-
ing yourself. Remember
that when the engine is hot, the
fan can start up and cause in-
juries.
Do not add oil with dif-
ferent specifications from
the oil already in the en-
gine.

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.
