FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
RECOMMENDED PRODUCTS AND THEIR SPECIFICATIONS
Use
For diesel engines, in emergency cases where genuine products are not available, lubricants with min. performance ACEA C2 are accepted. If
this is the case, the best engine performance is not guaranteed. We however recommend replacing the lubricant with those recommended by
Fiat Dealership.
The use of products with features lower than ACEA A1/B1 and ACEA C2 could cause engine damage which is not covered by warranty.
If the vehicle is used in particularly cold climates, ask your Fiat Dealership for the right Seleniaproduct. Lubricants for

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below are determined on the basis of the homologation tests set down by specific
European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring consumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerating in all gears, simulating extraurban use of the car; the speed varies between 0 and
120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: is calculated weighing about 37% of urban cycle consumption and about 63% of extraurban
consumption.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations, weather conditions, driving style, general conditions of the car, trim level/equip-
ment/accessories, load, climate control system, roof rack, other situations that affect air drag may lead to different fuel consump-
tion levels than those measured.
