WASHER FLUID fig. 9
To top up, remove the cap A.
Pour a mixture of water and TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC35, in the following
concentrations:
30% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35 and
70% water in summer.
50% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35 and
50% water in winter.
In case of temperatures below –20°C, use
undiluted TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35
fluid. ENGINE COOLANT fig. 7 and 8
The coolant level shall be checked with
cold engine and shall be within the MIN
and MAX marks on the tank.
If the level is low, pour slowly a mixture
of 50% distilled water and 50% PARAFLU
UP of the FL Selenia Group through the
filler neck Auntil the level reaches MAX.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU UP and dis-
tilled water gives freeze protection to
–35°C.
For particularly hard climate conditions,
we recommend use of a 60% Paraflu UP
and 40% demineralized water mixture.

The engine cooling system us-
es protective antifreeze fluid
PARAFLU UP. Use the same
fluid type as that already in
the cooling system when topping up.
PARAFLU UP fluid cannot be mixed
with any other type of fluid. Should it
happen, under no circumstances start
the engine; contact a Fiat Dealership.
The cooling system is pres-
surised. If necessary, replace
the cap only with another genuine
one, otherwise system efficiency
could be compromised. Do not re-
move the reservoir cap when the en-
gine is hot: you risk scalding yourself.
