What it means What to do
redLOW ENGINE OIL LEVEL
When turning the ignition key to MAR, the warning
light turns on but it should go off after a few seconds.
This warning light appears on the panel when the
engine oil level falls below the minimum recommended
value.
On certain versions a dedicated message is displayed.Restore the correct engine oil level (see “Checking fluid
levels” in the "Servicing and care" section).
redDOOR OPEN
On certain versions, the warning light turns on when
one or more doors or the boot are not properly closed.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.Check that all doors or the boot (for versions/markets,
where provided) are perfectly closed.
redPOWER STEERING FAILURE
When the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON the
warning light on the dial turns on, but it should turn off
after a few seconds.
If the warning light stays on together with the message
shown on the display and a buzzer, the power steering
is ineffective and the effort on the steering wheel
increases significantly even though the vehicle can be
steered.Contact a Fiat Dealership.
53

JUMP STARTING
If the warning lightremains on
continuously on the instrument panel,
contact the Fiat Dealership immediately.
JUMP STARTING
If the battery is flat, it is possible to start
the engine using an auxiliary battery
with the same capacity or a little higher
than the flat one.
Proceed as follows to start the vehicle
fig. 169:
connect the positive terminals (+
mark near the terminal) of the two
batteries using a suitable lead;
with a second lead, connect the
negative terminal (-) of the auxiliary
battery to an earthing point
on the
engine or the gearbox of the vehicle to
be started;
start the engine;
when the engine has been started,
remove the leads reversing the order
above.
If after a few attempts the engine does
not start, do not persist but contact
the nearest Fiat Dealership.
133)
33)
IMPORTANT Do not directly connect
the negative terminals of the two
batteries: sparks could ignite explosive
gas released from the battery. If the
auxiliary battery is installed on another
vehicle, avoid any metal parts on the
latter and the vehicle with the flat
battery from accidentally coming into
contact.
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by
pushing, towing or driving downhill.
This could cause fuel to flow into the
catalytic converter and damage it
beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake
booster and the power steering system
are not active until the engine is started,
so you will need to apply much more
force to the brake pedal or steering
wheel.
WARNING
133)This starting procedure must be
performed by expert personnel because
incorrect actions could cause electrical
discharge of considerable intensity.
Furthermore, battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive: avoid contact with skin and
eyes. Keep naked flames and lighted
cigarettes away from the battery and do
not cause sparks.
WARNING
33)Never use a fast battery-charger to
start the engine as this could damage the
electronic systems of your vehicle,
particularly the ignition and engine fuel
supply control units.

BRAKE FLUID
Unscrew the cap 5 and check that the
fluid 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"). When opening the cap
A, 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.
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”.
144) 145)
39)
POWER STEERING FLUID
Unscrew the cap 6 and check that the
fluid in the reservoir is between the
MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir.
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.

driving" chapter
COMFORT-MATIC
TRANSMISSION
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
FLUID
To check the transmission oil level and
to check/change the clutch hydraulic
system fluid, go to a Fiat Dealership.
4)
BATTERY
The battery does not require the
electrolyte to be topped up with distilled
water. A periodic check carried out at
a Fiat Dealership is, however, necessary
to check efficiency.IMPORTANT If the charge level remains
under 50% for a long time, the battery
is damaged by sulphation, reducing
its capacity and efficiency at start-up.
147) 148)
Replacing the battery
If required, replace the battery with an
original spare part with the same
specifications.
If a battery with different specifications
is fitted, the service intervals given in
the “Scheduled Servicing Plan” will no
longer be valid.
Follow the battery manufacturer's
instructions for maintenance.
149)

5)
WARNING
139)Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: inflammable gases
and vapours may be present, constituting
a fire risk.
140)Be very careful 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.
157

141)Do not remove the reservoir cap
when the engine is very hot as there is a
risk of scalding. The cooling system is
pressurised. If the cap needs replacing, do
so with another original or the effectiveness
of the system may be compromised.
142)Do not travel if the windscreen washer
reservoir is empty: using the windscreen
washer is essential for improving visibility.
143)Some commercial windscreen washer
additives are flammable. The engine
compartment contains hot parts which
could start a fire if they come into contact.
144)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.
145)The symbol
, on the brake fluid
container indicates if a brake fluid is
synthetic or mineral­based. Use of mineral
type fluids will damage the special rubber
seals of the braking system beyond repair.
146)Prevent power steering fluid from
coming into contact with hot engine parts:
it is flammable.
147)Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with skin and
eyes. Keep naked flames and sources of
sparks away from the battery: risk of
explosion and fire.
148)Using the battery with insufficient
battery fluid may irreparably damage the
battery and may cause an explosion.
149)When performing any operation on
the battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with special goggles.
WARNING
36)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.
37)Used engine oil and replaced oil filters
contain substances which are harmful to
the environment. To change oil and filters,
we advise you to contact a Fiat Dealership.
38)PARAFLU
UPanti-freeze fluid is used
in the cooling system. Use fluid of the
same type as that contained in the cooling
system for any top-ups. PARAFLU
UP
fluid cannot be mixed with any other type
of fluid. If this occurs, do not start the
engine and contact your Fiat Dealership
immediately.
39)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
40)Incorrect installation of electric and
electronic devices may cause severe
damage to your vehicle. After purchasing
your vehicle, if you wish to install any
accessories (anti-theft, radio phone, etc.),
go to a Fiat Dealership, which will suggest
the most suitable devices and advise
you whether a higher capacity battery
needs to be installed.
41)If the vehicle will be unused for an
extended period of time in extremely cold
weather conditions, remove the battery
and store it in a heated area to prevent it
from freezing.
WARNING
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.
4)Used transmission fluid contains
substances that are harmful to the
environment. It is advisable to have the oil
changed by a Fiat Dealership where it
will be disposed of respecting the
environment and according to legal
requirements.
5)Batteries contain substances which are
very dangerous for the environment. You
are recommended to go to a Fiat
Dealership to have the battery replaced
where the old battery will be disposed of
respecting both the environment and
the laws in force.
