The level may exceed the MAX mark
when the oil is hot.
If topping up is required, make sure the
oil you use has the same specifications
as that already in the system.

WARNING
126) Never smoke while working in
the engine compartment: gas
and flammable vapours may be
present, with the risk of fire.
127) When the engine is hot, take
care when working inside the
engine compartment to avoid
burns. Remember that when the
engine is hot, the fan may
operate: danger of injury. Scarves,
ties and other loose clothing may
be pulled by moving parts.128) The cooling system is
pressurised. If necessary, only
replace the cap with another
original one or the operation of
the system may be adversely
affected. Do not remove the cap
from the reservoir when the
engine is hot: danger of scalding.
129) Do not travel with the
windscreen washer fluid reservoir
empty: the windscreen washer
is essential for improving visibility.
Some commercial windscreen
washer additives are flammable.
The engine compartment contains
hot parts which could cause a
fire if they come into contact with
these additives.
130) Brake fluid is poisonous and
highly corrosive. In the event of
accidental contact, immediately
wash the affected parts with
water and mild soap. Then rinse
thoroughly. Consult a doctor
immediately if you swallow the
fluid.
131) The symbol
on 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 braking system
beyond repair.
197
Use the brake fluid shown in the "Fluids
and lubricants" table (see "Technical
Specifications").
NB Carefully clean the reservoir cap E
and surrounding surfaces.
Take great care to ensure that
impurities do not enter the reservoir
when the cap is opened.
For topping-up, always use a funnel
with integrated filter with mesh equal to
or lower than 0.12 mm.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs
moisture. For this reason, if the vehicle
is mainly used in areas with a high
degree of atmospheric humidity, the
fluid should be replaced at more
frequent intervals than specified in the
“Scheduled Servicing Plan”.

POWER STEERING FLUID
Check that the oil level with the vehicle
on flat ground and the engine cold is
between the MIN and MAX marks
on the reservoir body G fig. 211 - fig.
212 - fig. 213 - fig. 214 - fig. 215 - fig.
216 - fig. 217.

132) Prevent power steering fluid
from coming into contact with
hot engine parts: it is flammable.
IMPORTANT
31) When topping up, take care not
to mix up the various types of
fluids: they are not compatible
with each other and could
seriously damage the vehicle.
32) Do not add oil with specifications
other than those of the oil already
in the engine.
33) PARAFLU
UPanti-freeze is used
in the engine cooling system. Use
the same fluid as in the cooling
system when topping up.
PARAFLU
UPcannot be mixed with
any other type of fluid. If this
happens, do not start the engine
and contact a Fiat Dealership.
34) Avoid allowing brake fluid, which
is extremely corrosive, to come
into contact with painted areas.
Should it happen, wash
immediately with water.35) Do not press the power steering
end of travel lock for longer than 8
consecutive seconds with the
engine running because it will
cause noise and risk damaging
the system.
IMPORTANT
3) Used engine oil and oil filters
contain substances which are
harmful to the environment. It is
advisable to have oil and filters
changed by a Fiat Dealership,
where they will be disposed of
properly and in accordance with
the law.
4) Power steering fluid consumption
is extremely low; if another top-up
is required after only a short
period of time, have the system
checked for leaks at a Fiat
Dealership.
AIR CLEANER/
POLLEN FILTER
Have the air cleaner or the pollen filter
replaced by a Fiat Dealership.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

Rear window (washer)
The rear window washer jets are fixed.
The nozzle holder is located above
the rear window.
WARNING
138) Driving with worn windscreen
wiper blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in
bad weather conditions.
WHEELS AND TYRES
Check the pressure of each tyre,
including the space-saver wheel,
approximately every two weeks and
before long journeys: the pressure
should be checked with the tyre rested
and cold.
It is normal for the pressure to increase
when the vehicle is used; for the correct
tyre inflation pressure, see “Wheels” in
the “Technical specifications” section.
Incorrect pressure causes abnormal
tyre wear fig. 224:
Anormal pressure: tread evenly worn;
Blow pressure: tread particularly worn
at the edges;
Chigh pressure: tread particularly worn
in the centre.The tyres must be replaced when the
tread is less than 1.6 mm thick. In
any case, follow the laws in force in the
country you are in.
IMPORTANT
❒As far as possible, avoid sharp
braking, screech starts and violent
shocks against pavements, potholes
or other hard obstacles. Driving for
long stretches over bumpy roads can
damage the tyres;
❒periodically check that the tyres have
no cuts in the side wall, abnormal
swelling or irregular tyre wear.
Contact a Fiat Dealership if required;
❒avoid overloading the vehicle when
travelling: this may cause serious
damage to the wheels and tyres;
❒if a tyre is punctured, stop
immediately and change it to avoid
damage to the tyre, the rim,
suspensions and steering system;
❒tyres age even if they are not used
much. Cracks in the tread and on
the side walls are a sign of ageing.
Have the tyres checked by
specialised personnel if they have
been fitted for longer than 6 years.
Remember to check the spare wheel
very carefully;
