DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechanical filter,
integral with the exhaust system, that physically traps
particulates present in the exhaust gases of diesel
engines.
The diesel particulate filter has been adopted to
eliminate almost all particulates in compliance with
current/future legal regulations.
During normal use of the vehicle, the engine
management control unit records a set of data (travel
time, type of route, temperatures, etc.) and it will
then calculate how much particulate has been trapped
by the filter.
Since this filter physically traps particulate, it should be
regenerated (cleaned) at regular intervals by burning
carbon particles.
The regeneration procedure is controlled automatically
by the engine management control unit according to the
filter conditions and vehicle use conditions.
There may be a limited increase in the engine idle speed
during the regeneration, a limited increase in fumes and
high temperatures at the exhaust. These are not faults;
they do not impair vehicle performance or damage the
environment.
If the dedicated message is displayed, refer to the
“Warning lights and messages” section.PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The following devices are used for reducing diesel fuel
engine emissions:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒exhaust gas recirculation system (E.G.R.);
❒diesel particulate filter (DPF).
The diesel particulate filter (DPF)
reaches high temperatures during
operation. Therefore do not therefore park the
vehicle on inflammable materials (grass, dry
leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire hazard.
WARNING
The catalytic converter also reaches
high temperatures during normal
operation. Do not park the car on grass, dry
leaves, pine needles or other flammable
material: fire hazard.

(*) Regardless of mileage, the timing belt must be replaced every four years in case of particularly demanding use (cold
climate, city traffic, long idling) or at least every five years.
(**) The actual interval for changing the oil and replacing the engine oil filter depends on the vehicle usage conditions and
is signalled by the warning light or message (if present) in the instrument panel (see chapter “Warning lights and
messages”) or every 24 months
( ) If the vehicle is driven mainly in towns, change engine oil and filter every 12 months.
(***) If the vehicle is equipped with a special air cleaner for dusty areas:
- every 20,000 km, check and clean the filter,
- every 40,000 km replace the filter.

IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs moisture. For this
reason, if the car 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”. BRAKE FLUID fig. 226
Undo the cap A and check that the liquid contained in
the reservoir is at the maximum level.
The fluid level in the reservoir must not exceed the
MAX mark.
Use the brake fluid shown in the “Fluids and lubricants”
table (see “Technical Specifications”).
NOTE Thoroughly clean the tank cap A and the
surrounding surface.
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
that has a mesh inferior or equal to 0.12 mm.
Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should this occur,
immediately wash with water.
Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
corrosive. In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the affected parts
with water and neutral soap. Then rinse
thoroughly. If swallowed call a doctor straight
away.
WARNING
The symbol πon the container indicates
a synthetic brake fluid, which is different
from a mineral fluid. Use of mineral type fluids
will damage the special rubber seals of the
braking system beyond repair.

When the setting is reached the indicator is triggered
B-fig. 230 and changes to red, even with the engine off.
To reset the indicator, clean/replace the cartridge as on
normal versions and then reset the indicator by pressing
the button C-fig. 230.
WARNING To clean the filter, use an air jet, do not use
water or liquid detergents.
Because this filter is specific to versions designed for
dusty areas, it is advisable to contact a Fiat Dealership
to change the filter.
POLLEN FILTER
Have the pollen filter replaced by a Fiat Dealership.AIR FILTER/POLLEN FILTER
Have the air filter replaced by a Fiat Dealership.
AIR FILTER – DUSTY ROADS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The air filter for dusty areas is equipped with a visual
filter block indication device A-fig. 229. Check the
reading of the filter block sensor at intervals (refer to
“Scheduled Servicing Plan” in the “Maintenance and
care” section).
