engine FIAT LINEA RHD 2010 1.G Repair Manual

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.

The total intake of these systems (facto-
ry and after-market) must be less than 0.6
mA x Ah (of the battery) as shown in the
following table:

If after buying the car, you want to install
electric accessories which require per-
manent electric supply (alarm, etc.) con-
tact Fiat Dealership whose qualified
personnel, in addition to suggesting the most
suitable devices, will evaluate the overall
electric absorption, checking whether the
car’s electric system is capable of with-
standing the load required, or whether it
should be integrated with a more power-
ful battery.
Since these devices continue absorbing en-
ergy even when the ignition key is off, they
gradually run down the battery. USEFUL ADVICE FOR
LENGTHENING THE LIFE OF
YOUR BATTERY
To avoid draining your battery and length-
en its life, observe the following indica-
tions:
when you park the car, ensure the
doors, tailgate and bonnet are closed
properly;
switch off all lights inside the car: the
car is however equipped with a system
which switches all internal lights off au-
tomatically;
do not keep accessories (e.g. sound sys-
tem, hazard lights, etc.) switched on for
a long time when the engine is not run-
ning;
before performing any operation on the
electrical system, disconnect the bat-
tery negative cable;
make sure that battery terminals are al-
ways be perfectly tight.
Always wear the proper pro-
tective eyewear when work-
ing on the battery or near it.

BODY AND UNDERBODY
WARRANTY
Your car is covered by warranty against
perforation due to rust of any original el-
ement of the structure or body.
For the general terms of this warranty, re-
fer to Fiat Warranty Booklet.
ADVICE FOR PRESERVING
THE BODYWORK
Paint
Paintwork does not only serve an aes-
thetic purpose, but also protects the un-
derlying sheet metal.
Touch up abrasions and scratches immedi-
ately to prevent the formation of rust. On-
ly use genuine spare paint products for
touch-ups.BODYWORK
PROTECTION FROM
ATMOSPHERIC AGENTS
The main causes of corrosion are the fol-
lowing:
atmospheric pollution;
salty air and humidity (coastal areas, or
hot humid climates);
seasonal environment conditions.
Not to be underestimated is also the abra-
sive action of wind-borne atmospheric
dust and sand and mud and gravel raised
by other cars.
On your Fiat vehicle, Fiat implemented
the best manufacturing technologies to
effectively protect the bodywork against
corrosion.These include:
painting products and systems which
give the car particular resistance to
corrosion and abrasion;
spraying the underbody, engine com-
partment, wheelhouse internal parts
and other parts with highly protective
products;
spraying of plastic parts, with a
use of “open” boxed sections to pre-
vent condensation and pockets of mois-
ture from triggering rust inside.

protective function, in the more
exposed points: under door, inner
fender parts, edges, etc. We remind that the warranty is valid
under the full compliance with the
programmed maintenance coupons and
or inspection schedules specified by the
manufacturer. The failure to have them
carried out invalidate the warranty.

Normal maintenance of paintwork consists
in washing the car: the frequency depends
on the conditions and environment where
the car is used. For example, it is advisable
to wash the car more often in areas with
a high environmental pollution or on roads
sprinkled with salt.
To correctly wash the car:
remove the aerial from the roof to pre-
vent damage to it if the car is washed in
an automatic system;
wash the body using a low pressure jet
of water;
wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy so-
lution over the bodywork, frequently
rinsing with the sponge;
rinse well with water and dry with a jet
of air or a chamois leather.
Dry the parts less in sight particularly care-
ful ly, such as the door fram es and the
headlight frames, where water may stag-
nate more easily. It is a good idea to leave
the car in the open for a while after wash-
ing it to give time for the water to evap-
orate.Do not wash the car after it has been
parked in the sun or when the engine is
bonnet is hot: this could take the shine off
the paint.
Exterior plastic parts must be cleaned in
the same way as the rest of the car.
Where possible, do not park under trees;
the resinous substance many species re-
lease give the paint a dull appearance and
increase the possibility of triggering rust
processes.
IMPORTANT Bir d droppings must be
washed off immediately and thoroughly as
the acid they contain is partic ularly ag-
gressive.
Detergents cause water pollu-
tion. The car should be washed
in areas equipped for collect-
ing and purifying the liquid
used in the washing process.
Windows
Use specific window cleaner products.
Use also clean cloths to avoid scratching
the glass or damaging the transparency.
IMPORTANT The inside of the rear win-
dow should be wiped gently with a cloth
in the direction of the filaments to avoid
damaging the heating device.
Engine compartment
Wash the engine compartment carefully
after the end of the winter. Be careful not
to direct the jet of water onto electronic
control units. Adequately protect the up-
per air vents to prevent damage to the
windscreen wiper motor. Have this op-
eration performed at a specialised work-
shop.
IMPORTANT Perform this operation on
a cold engine and with the key at STOP.
After the washing operation, make sure
that the various protections (e.g. rubber
caps and guards) have not removed or
damaged.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic sub-
stances (e.g.: petrol) or ketenes (e.g.: ace-
tone) for cleaning front headlight plastic
lens.
