IMPORTANT When topping up take care
not to confuse the various types of fluids:
they are all incompatible with one anoth-
er and could seriously damage the car.
IMPORTANT Never smoke while work-
ing in the engine compartment: gas and in-
flammable vapours may be present, with
the risk of fire.

IMPORTANT The oil consumption de-
pends on driving style and the conditions
under which the car is used.
IMPORTANT Do not add oil with speci-
fications other than that already in the en-
gine.
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 in-
jury. Scarves, ties and other loose
clothing might be pulled by moving
parts.
WARNING
Used engine oil and filter con-
tain harmful substances for
the environment. Contact Fi-
at Dealership to have the oil
and filter changed.
ENGINE COOLANT FLUID
fig. 9-10
The coolant level shall be checked with
cold engine and shall be included between
the MINand MAXmark on the reser-
voir.
If the level is low, pour slowly a mixture
of 50% distilled water and 50% FL Selenia
PARAFLU UPthrough the filler neck.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU UPand
distilled water gives freeze protection to
–35°C.
When the vehicle is used under particu-
larly harsh climate conditions, we recom-
mend using a 60-40 mixture of
PARAFLU UPand demineralised water.
IMPORTANT Do not remove the reser-
voir cap when the engine is hot: you risk
scalding yourself.

The cooling system is pres-
surised. If necessary, replace
the cap only with another genuine
one, otherwise system efficiency
could be compromised.
