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. 3-4
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.

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.

WINDSCREEN WASHING
FLUID fig. 6
To top up, remove the cap A.
Pour a mixture of 10% of fluid SC 35 &
90% of distil led water and check level
through the reservoir.
ENGINE COOLANT fig. 5
The coolant level must be checked when
the engine is cold and must be between
the MINand MAXlines on the vessel.
fig. 5F0R0136mfig. 6
PARAFLU UP antifre eze is
used in the engine cooling sys-
tem .
Use fluid of the sam e
type contained in the cooling
system for top-ups. PARAFLU UP may
not be mixed with other types of fluids.
If this accidentally occurs, do not start
the engine and contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship.
The cooling system is pres-
surised. If required, replace
the cap with an original spare part so
as not to compromise system effi-
ciency. Do not remove the cap from
the vessel
when the engine is hot: risk
of burns.
WARNING
F0R0137m
If the level is low, slowly pour a mixture of
40% PARAFLU UP & 60% deminerali-
zed water through filler A of the vessel un-
til the level approaches the MAXline.
Waste engine oil and oil filters
contains substances which are
dangerous for the environ-
ment. It is advisable to have
oil and filte rs changed by a Fiat
Dealership where they will be dispos-
ed of according to the law.
Always top up using engine oil
of the same types as that al-
ready in the engine.

Oil consumption is extremely
low; if another top-up should
be required after only a short
period of time, have the system checked
for leakage at a Fiat Dealership.
BATTERY
The car fits a low-maint enan ce batter y.
Under normal condition it does not need
frequent top ups with distelled water.
POWER STEERING FLUID fig. 8
Check that the oil level with the car on flat
ground and the engine cold is between the
MINand MAXline s on the reser voir
body. The level may go over the MAX
line when the oil is hot.
If topping up is required, make sure the oil
you used has the same specific ations as
that already in the system.
AIR CLEANER
Have the air cleaner replaced by a Fiat
Dealership. (Refer Service schedule)
POLLEN FILTER
Have the pollen filter replaced by a Fiat
Dealership.
Prevent power steering flu-
id from coming into contact
with hot engine par ts: the liquid is
flammable.
