temperatures below zero;
❒frequently idling engine or long distance low speed
driving (e.g. taxis or door-to-door deliveries) or in

the following checks must be carried out more often
than indicated in the Scheduled Servicing Plan:
❒check front disc brake pad conditions and wear;

❒check battery charge and liquid level (electrolyte);
❒visual check on various drive belt conditions;
❒check pollen filter and replace it, if required;
❒check air cleaner and replace it, if required.
PERIODIC CHECKS
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys, check and, if
necessary, top-up the following:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions;
❒operation of lights (headlights, direction indicators,
hazard lights, etc.);
❒operation of the windscreen wiper/washer system,
position and wear of the windscreen and rear
window wiper blades.
Every 3,000 km check and top up if required: engine oil

Never smoke while
working in the engine
compartment: gas and
inflammable vapours may be
present, with the risk of fire.
WARNING
Be careful, when
topping up not to
confuse the various
types of fluids: they are all
incompatible with one another
and could seriously damage the
vehicle.
1. Engine coolant fluid
2. Power steering fluid
3. Windscreen washer fluid
4. Brake fluid
5. Engine oil

If the oil level is near or under the MIN line, add oil
through the filler A until it reaches the MAX line.
The oil level should never exceed the MAX line. ENGINE OIL fig. 224-225-226
Check the oil level a few minutes (about 5) after the
engine has stopped, with the vehicle parked on level
ground.
Check that the level is within the MIN and MAX marks
on the dipstick B.
The range between the MIN. and MAX. marks
corresponds to about 1 litre of oil.

ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION
The maximum engine oil consumption is usually
400 grams every 1,000 km.
When the vehicle is new, the engine needs to be run in,
therefore the engine oil consumption can only be
considered stabilised after the first 5,000 – 6,000 km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption depends on the
driving style and the conditions under which the vehicle
is used.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing the oil, let the
engine run for a few seconds and wait a few minutes
after switching it off before checking the level.
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 cut in: danger of injury. Pay
attention to scarves, ties and other loose fitting
garments: they might get caught by moving
components.
WARNING
Do not add any oil with different
specifications to those of the existing
engine oil.
The used engine oil and the replaced oil
filter contain substances that may be
dangerous for the environment. It is
advisable to have oil and filters changed by a Fiat
Dealership where they will be disposed respecting
the environment and according to legal
regulations.

ENGINE COOLANT fig. 227
The coolant level must be checked when the engine is
cold and must range between the MIN. and MAX.
marks on the reservoir.
If the level is low, slowly pour a mixture of 50%
demineralised water and 50% PARAFLU
UPof
PETRONAS LUBRICANTS through the filler neck A
until the level reaches MAX.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU
UPand distilled water
gives freeze protection up to –35°C.
When the vehicle is used under particularly harsh
weather conditions, we recommend using
a 60-40 mixture of PARAFLU
UPand demineralised
water.
PARAFLUUPanti-freeze is used in the
engine cooling system. Use the same fluid
as in the cooling system when topping up.
PARAFLU
UPmay not be mixed with any other
types of fluids. If this accidentally occurs, do not
start the engine and contact a Fiat Dealership.
The engine cooling system is pressurised.
If necessary, only replace the cap with
another genuine 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.

WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW WASHER/
HEADLIGHT WASHER FLUID fig. 228
To top up, remove the cap A.
Use a mixture of water and TUTELA PROFESSIONAL
SC 35, in the following concentrations:
30% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 and 70% water in
summer.
50% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 and 50% water in
winter.
At temperatures below –20 °C, use undiluted TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC 35 fluid.
Check level through the reservoir.
Do not travel with the windscreen
washer reservoir empty: the windscreen
washer is fundamental for improving visibility.
WARNING
Certain commercial additives for
windscreen washers are inflammable.
The engine compartment contains hot parts
which could start a fire if they come into
contact.

POWER STEERING FLUID fig. 230
Check that the liquid contained in the tank is at the
maximum level. This operation must be carried out with
the vehicle level and with the engine off and cold. Check
that the fluid level is up to the MAX mark on the
dipstick attached to the fuel cap (use the level shown on
the 20°C side of the dipstick to check when cold).
If the level of the fluid in the tank is lower than the
specified level, top up using only one of the products
indicated in the “Fluid and lubricants” table in the
“Technical specifications” section, proceeding as follows:
❒Start the engine and wait for the level of fluid in the
tank to stabilise.
❒With the engine running, turn the steering wheel
from right to left fully, several times.

Power steering fluid consumption is very
low. If the fluid needs topping up a short
time after the last top-up, have the
system checked by a Fiat Dealership to ensure
there are no leaks.
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.
❒Top up the fuel to the MAX level and then retighten
the cap.
Prevent power steering fluid from
coming into contact with hot engine
parts: the liquid is flammable.
