When jump starting, never connect the negative lead (–)
of the auxiliary battery to the negative pole C of the ve-
hicle battery, but rather to either the false pole B or to
an engine/gearbox earth point.
WARNINGS
When replacing the battery, always go to
the Fiat Service Network. Replace the bat-
tery using a new one of the same type and spec-
ifications.
WARNINGBefore opening the bonnet, make sure
that the vehicle is switched off and the key
is in the OFF position. Follow the instructions on
the dedicated plate on the front crossmember. It
is advisable to extract the key when there are oth-
er people in the vehicle.

In case of car inactivity, special attention must be paid due
to the disconnection of the battery power supply. Proceed
as follows: detach the connector (by pressing button B) from
sensor C for monitoring the battery status installed on the
battery negative pole D. This sensor should never be dis-
connected from the pole except if the battery is replaced.

vehicle by aftersales must carry the following label:
FGA S.p.A. authorises the installation of transceiving de-
vices provided that they are installed by a specialised cen-
tre according to rules of good engineering practice and
in compliance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
WARNING Traffic authorities may not allow the vehicle
on the road if devices are fitted that modify vehicle spec-
ifications. This may also invalidate the warranty in rela-
tion to faults caused by the change or either directly or in-
directly related to it.
FGA S.p.A. shall not be liable for damage caused by the in-
stallation of accessories either not supplied or recom-
mended by FGA S.p.A. and/or not installed in compliance
with the provided instructions.

SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is essential for ensuring long vehicle life
under the best conditions.
This is why Fiat has planned a series of checks and ser-
vice operations every 30,000/35,000 km (according to ver-
sions).
It is, however, important to remember that scheduled ser-
vicing does not completely cover all the vehicle’s re-
quirements: even in the initial period before 30,000/35,000
km, and then subsequently between one service and an-
other, ordinary care is always required such as routine
checks involving topping up fluid levels, checking tyre pres-
sures etc...IMPORTANT Scheduled Services are prescribed by the
manufacturer. Failure to stick to the schedule may invali-
date the warranty.
Scheduled Servicing is performed by all Fiat Dealerships at
pre-arranged times.
If, during each part of the service, the need arises for ad-
ditional replacements or repairs, these may be carried out
only with the explicit agreement of the Customer.
IMPORTANT You are advised to contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship immediately in the event of any minor operating faults,
without waiting for the next service.
If your vehicle is used frequently for towing trailers, the
interval between scheduled services must be reduced.

BRAKE FLUID fig. 180-181-182-183-184
Undo cap E and check that the liquid in the reservoir is
at the maximum level.
Fluid level in the reservoir must not exceed the MAX
mark.
If you do need to top up, use the brake fluid shown in the
“Fluids and lubricants” table (see “Technical Specifica-
tions”).
NB Carefully clean the reservoir cap E and surrounding
surfaces.
When opening the cap, make sure that no dirt gets into
the reservoir.
Always use a funnel with a built-in filter with a mesh of 0.12
mm or less for topping up.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs moisture. For this rea-
son, if the vehicle is mainly used in areas with a high de-
gree of atmospheric humidity, the fluid should be replaced
at more frequent intervals than specified in the “Service
schedule”.

INDEXPrevent brake fluid, which is highly corro-
sive, from coming into contact with paint-
ed parts. Should this occur, immediately
wash with water.
Brake fluid is poisonous and highly corro-
sive. In the event of accidental contact,
wash the parts immediately with water and mild
soap, then rinse with plenty of water. In case of
swallowing, immediately call a doctor.
WARNING
The symbol πon the container indicates
a synthetic brake fluid, which is different
from a mineral fluid. Using a mineral-type fluid
will damage the special rubber seals of the brak-
ing system beyond repair.

ARRANGEMENTS FOR DEALING WITH THE VEHICLE AT THE END OF ITS LIFE
Fiat has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its production
processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly “eco-compatible”.
To give customers the best possible service in terms of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Directive
2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of their life, Fiat is offering its customers the opportunity of handing over their
vehicle* at the end of its life without incurring any additional costs.
The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over the last keeper or owner should not incur any expenses
as a result of it having a zero or negative market value.
In all European Union countries, until 1st January 2007, only vehicles registered after 1st July 2002 were collected free of
charge, while since 2007 collection has been free of charge irrespective of the year of registration as long as the vehicle
contains its basic components (in particular, the engine and bodywork) and has no additional waste.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, go to one of our Dealerships or Fiat-authorised collection
and scrapping centres.
These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality service for the collection, treatment and recycling of unused
vehicles with respect to the environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from a Fiat or Fiat Commercial Vehicle
Dealership, by calling the freephone number 00800 3428 0000 or by going on the Fiat website.
* Vehicle for transporting passengers with a maximum of nine seats and a total permitted weight of 3.5 t
