IF A FUSE BLOWS
GENERAL
The fuse is a protective device for the
electric system: it comes into action (i.e.
it cuts off) mainly due to a fault or im-
proper action on the system.
Check the efficiency of the corresponding
fuse when a device does not work: the
conducting element A-fig. 37must not be
interrupted. If it is, replace the blown fuse
with another with the same amperage
(same colour).
Bundamaged fuse
Cfuse with damaged filament.
fig. 37F0R0122m
Never replace a fuse with
another of higher amperage:
FIRE RISK.
WARNING
Never replace a blown fuse
with metallic wires or other
material.
Go to a Fiat Dealership if a
general protection fuse
blows (MEGA-FUSE, MIDI-FUSE,
MAXI-FUSE).
WARNING
If a fuse blows again, contact
a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
Remove the key from the ig-
nition switch and switch off
all loads before replacing a fuse.

FASTENING THE TOW
RING fig. 43-44
Proceed as follows:
❒release the cap A;
❒take the tow hook Bfrom the sup-
port;
❒tighten the ring on the rear or front
threaded pin.
The power brakes and pow-
er steering will not work while
the car is being towed. More effort on
the brake pedal and steering wheel will
therefore be required. Do not use wires
for towing. Do not jerk. Make sure not
to damage parts in contact with the
car while towing. Respect the specific
rules of the Highway Code when tow-
ing the car specifically in relation to
the towing device and the behaviour
to maintain on the road.
WARNING
fig. 43F0R0130m
fig. 44F0R0131m
Do not start the engine while
towing the car.
WARNING
Clean the threaded seat
carefully before fastening
the ring. Make sure that the ring is
fully fastened in the seat before tow-
ing the car.
WARNING
Release the steering wheel
lock before towing (see “Ig-
nition device” in “Dashboard and con-
trols”). The power brakes and power
steering will not work while the car is
being towed. More effort on the brake
pedal and steering wheel will therefore
be required. Do not use wires for tow-
ing. Do not jerk. Make sure not to
damage parts in contact with the car
while towing. Respect the specific rules
of the Highway Code when towing the
car specifically in relation to the tow-
ing device and the behaviour to main-
tain on the road.

If the oil level is near or even under the
MINline, add oil through the filler Ato
reach the MAXline.
Oil level shall never exceed the MAXline.ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION
The maximum engine oil consumption is
usually 400 grams every 1,000 km.
When the car is new, the engine needs
to run in, therefore the engine oil con-
sumption can only be considered stabilised
after the first 5,000 - 6,000 km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption de-
pends on driving style and the conditions
under which the car is used.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing
the oil, let the engine turn over for a few
seconds and wait a few minutes after turn-
ing it off before you check the level.
ENGINE OIL fig. 3/a-3/b-4
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with the
car parked on level ground.
The oil level shall be included between the
MINand MAXmarks on the dipstick B.
The range between the MINand MAX
levels corresponds to approximately
one litre of oil.
fig. 3/a - 1.4 version F0R0134mfig. 4 - 1.3 Multijet versionF0R0135m
Proceed very carefully inside
the engine compartment
when the engine is hot: risk of burns.
Remember that the fan may start up
if the engine is hot: risk of injury. Pay
attention to scarves, ties and other
loose fitting garments: they could get
dragged by the moving parts.

MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT Check the battery charge
once a year, preferably before the begin-
ning to winter, to prevent freezing of the
electrolyte. Perform this inspection more
frequently if the car is mainly used for
short distances or if electrical devices run-
ning with the key off are installed, partic-
ularly after-market.
fig. 9F0R0140m
CHANGING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a gen-
uine spare part having the same specifi-
cations.
If a battery with different specifications is
fitted, the service intervals given in the
“Service schedule” in this section will no
longer apply.
Follow the battery manufacturer’s in-
structions for maintenance.Incorrect assembly of electric
and electronic devices may
cause severe damage to your
car. Go to a Fiat Dealership if
you want to install accessories (alarms,
mobile phone, etc.): they will suggest
the most suitable devices and advise
you if a higher capacity battery needs
to be installed.
Batteries contain very dan-
gerous substances for the en-
vironment. You are recom-
mended to go to a Fiat Deal-
ership to have the battery replaced
where the old battery will be disposed
of respecting both the environment and
the laws in force.
If the car is left for long peri-
ods in very cold environ-
ments, remove the battery and store it
in a warm place to prevent freezing.
WARNING
IMPORTANT If the battery is not pro-
vided with the visual indicator to verify
electrolyte charge and level, control op-
erations and any top-up operation must
be carried out by specialised personnel
and by Fiat Dealership.
Battery liquid is poisonous
and corrosive. Avoid contact
with the skin and eyes. Keep naked
flames and sources of sparks away
from the battery: risk of fire and ex-
plosion.
WARNING
Running the battery with an
excessively low liquid level
will damage the battery beyond re-
pair and even cause an explosion.
