IMPORTANT - Engine oil
Should prevailing use of the car be under one of the
following specially heavy conditions:
❒trailer or caravan towing;
❒dusty roads;
❒short distances (less than 7-8 km) repeated and
with external temperatures below zero;
❒frequently idling engines or long distance low speed
driving (e.g. taxis or door-to-door deliveries) or in
case of a long term inactivity;
replace engine oil more frequently than required on
“Service schedule”.
IMPORTANT - Air cleaner
If the car is used on dusty roads change the air cleaner
more frequently than the indications in the “Service
schedule”.
If in doubt as to how often the engine oil and air
cleaner should be changed according to how you use
the car, contact a Fiat Dealership.IMPORTANT - Pollen filter
If the vehicle is used frequently in dusty or heavily
polluted environments it is advisable to replace the
filtering element more frequently; in particular it
should be replaced if a reduction of the amount of air
admitted to the passenger compartment is noted.
IMPORTANT - Diesel filter
The possibility of topping up with diesel fuel not
complying with EN590 European Norm might make it
necessary to replace the filter more frequently than
indicated in the “Service schedule”.

ENGINE OIL
Checking engine oil
Check the oil level a few minutes (about 5) after the engine has stopped,
with the car parked on level ground.
Check that the level is within the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick.
The interval between the MIN and MAX marks corresponds to about
one litre of oil.
Topping up engine oil
If the oil level is near or even below the MIN mark, add oil through the
filler neck, until reaching the MAX mark. Oil level shall never exceed the
MAX mark.
IMPORTANT If a routine check reveals that the oil level is above the
MAX mark, contact Fiat Dealership to have the correct level restored.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing the oil, let the engine turn over
for a few seconds and wait a few minutes after turning it off before you
check the level.
