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.
Proceed as follows:
❒remove the plastic cover A fig. 242,
rotating the locking screws B fig.
242 counter-clockwise, to access the
filler of the reservoir;
❒check that the fluid level is up to the
MAX mark on the dipstick attached
to the fuel cap F fig. 239 - fig. 240
- fig. 241 (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 fluid
level in the tank to stabilise.❒With the engine running, turn the
steering wheel from right to left
fully several times.
❒Top up the fuel to the MAX level and
then retighten the cap.

To add fluid:
❒remove cap D fig. 239 - fig. 240 - fig.
241, pulling the retaining tooth
outward;
❒pull the opening of the pipe upwards
to remove the telescopic funnel fig.
243.
IMPORTANT Before opening the
cap, make sure it is correctly
oriented (as illustrated in fig. 243) to
prevent it from being damaged
and interfering with the adjacent
mechanical parts. Otherwise, turn it
until it reaches the correct position.
Fill according to the following
instructions:
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.
To close the cap, operate as
follows:
❒push the funnel fully until it locks;

50)
Undo the cap E fig. 239 - fig. 240 -
fig. 241 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 Carefully clean the cap of the
reservoir and the surrounding
surface.
Take great care to ensure that
impurities do not enter the reservoir
when the plug 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”.
IMPORTANT
47) 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 car.
48) The used engine oil and the filter
that has been replaced contain
substances that are harmful to
the environment. To change the
oil and filters, we advise you to
contact a Fiat Dealership.49) PARAFLU
UPantifreeze is used in
the engine cooling system. Use
fluid of the same type as that
contained in the cooling system
for any top-ups. PARAFLU
UP
cannot be mixed with any other
type of fluid. If this happens, do
not start the engine and contact a
Fiat Dealership.
50) Avoid allowing brake fluid, which
is extremely corrosive, to come
into contact with painted areas.
Should it happen, wash
immediately with water.
51) 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.
WARNING
180) Never smoke when performing
operations in the engine
compartment. Flammable gases
and fumes may be present and
risk igniting.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

181) Be very careful when working in
the engine compartment when
the engine is hot: you may get
burned. Remember that the fan
may start up if the engine is hot:
this could injure you. Scarves, ties
and other loose clothing might
be pulled by moving parts.
182) The cooling system is
pressurised. If necessary, only
replace the plug with another
original one or the operation of
the system may be adversely
affected. Do not remove the
reservoir plug when the engine is
hot: risk of burns.
183) Do not travel with the
windscreen washer reservoir
empty: the windscreen washer is
essential for improving visibility.
184) Some commercial windscreen
washer additives are flammable.
The engine compartment contains
hot parts which could start a fire
on contact.
185) Do not release the cap from
the extension without previously
extracting the system using the
ring.186) 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. Call a doctor
immediately if swallowed.
187) The
symbol on the container
indicates a synthetic brake fluid,
which is different from a mineral
fluid. Using a mineral fluid will
damage the special rubber seals
of the braking system beyond
repair.
188) Prevent power steering fluid
from coming into contact with
hot engine parts: it is flammable.
IMPORTANT
3) 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 replaced by a
Fiat Dealership.
AIR CLEANER – DUSTY
ROADS
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
The air cleaner for dusty areas is
equipped with a visual filter block
indication device A fig. 244. Check
the reading of the blockage sensor
at intervals (Refer to the "Service
Schedule" in the "Maintenance and
care" section).
