ENGINE COOLANT fig. 178 and 179
The coolant level must be checked when the engine is cold
and must range between the MIN. and MAX. marks on the
reservoir.
If the level is low, pour slowly a mixture of 50% deminer-
alised water and 50% PARAFLU
UP
of FL Selenia through
the filler neck A until approaching the MAX. level.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU
UP
and demineralised wa-
ter gives freeze protection to −35 °C.
For particularly harsh climate conditions, a mixture of 60%
PARAFLU
UP
and 40% demineralised water is recom-
mended.
When the engine is hot, take care when
working inside the engine compartment to
avoid burns. Remember that when the engine is
hot, the fan may cut in: danger of injury. Scarves,
ties and other loose clothing might be pulled by
moving parts.
WARNING
Never add any oil with different specifica-
tions than those of the existing engine oil. Used engine oil and the replaced oil filter
contain substances that may be dangerous
for the environment. It is advisable to have
oil and filters changed by a Fiat Dealership where
they will be disposed respecting the environment
and according to law prescription.

The engine cooling system is pressurised.
If necessary, only replace the cap with an-
other genuine one or the operation of the system
may be adversely affected. Do not remove the cap
from the reservoir when the engine is hot: dan-
ger of scalding.
WARNING
The engine cooling system uses protective
antifreeze fluid PARAFLU
UP. Use the same
fluid as in the cooling system when topping
up. PARAFLU
UP
fluid cannot be mixed with any oth-
er type of fluid. If this accidentally occurs, do not
start the engine and contact a Fiat Dealership.
Do not travel with the windscreen wash-
er reservoir empty: the windscreen
washer is fundamental for improving visibility.
WARNING
WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW WASHER
FLUID fig. 180
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.
At temperatures below −20 °C, use undiluted TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC35 fluid.
Check level through the reservoir.

Certain commercial additives for wind-
screen washers are inflammable. The en-
gine compartment contains hot parts which could
start a fire if they come into contact.
WARNING
Prevent brake fluid which is highly corrosive
from coming into contact with painted
parts. Should this occur, immediately wash
with water. Brake fluid is poisonous and highly corro-
sive. In the event of accidental contact, im-
mediately wash the affected parts with water
and neutral soap. Then rinse thoroughly. If swal-
lowed call a doctor straight away.
WARNING
BRAKE FLUID fig. 181
Undo the cap A and check that the liquid contained in the
reservoir is at the maximum level.
Fluid level in the reservoir must not exceed the MAX
mark.
Use the brake fluid shown in the “Fluids and lubricants”
table (see “Technical Specifications”).
NOTE Carefully clean the reservoir cap A and the sur-
rounding surface.
Take great care that impurities do not enter the reservoir
when the cap is opened.
For topping-up, always use a funnel with integrated filter
with mesh equal to or lower than 0.12 mm.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid is hygroscopic (i.e. it absorbs
moisture). For this reason, if the car is mainly used in ar-
eas with a high degree of atmospheric humidity, the fluid
should be replaced at more frequent intervals than spec-
ified in the “Scheduled Servicing Programme”.

The operations must be carried out as described in this
Owner Handbook only by skilled personnel. Any top-up
operations must be carried out by skilled personnel
and by a Fiat Dealership. REPLACEMENT (Diesel versions) fig. 184
Undo the screws D, remove the cover E and extract the

Battery liquid is poisonous and corrosive.
Avoid contact with the skin and eyes. Keep
naked flames or possible sources of sparks away
from the battery: risk of explosion or fire.

Glasses
To clean glasses, use specific window cleaner products.
Also use clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or dam-
aging the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window inside gently with
a cloth in the direction of the filaments to avoid damag-
ing the heating device.
Engine compartment
At the end of the winter the engine compartment should
be carefully washed, without directing the jet against any
electronic control unit. Have this operation performed
at a specialised workshop.
IMPORTANT The washing should take place with the en-
gine cold and the ignition key in the
STOP
position. After
the washing operation, make sure that the various pro-
tections (e.g. rubber caps and guards) have not been re-
moved or damaged.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.: petrol)
or ketenes (e.g.: acetone) for cleaning front headlight plas-
tic lens. To correctly wash the vehicle, proceed as follows:
❒
remove the aerial from the roof to prevent 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 solution 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 less visible parts, such as the door frames, bonnet
and the headlight frames with special care, as in these ar-
eas water may stagnate more easily. The car should not
be taken to a closed area immediately, but left outside so
that residual water can evaporate.
Do not wash the car after it has been left in the sun or
with the bonnet hot: this may alter the shine of the paint-
work.
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 release give the paint a dull ap-
pearance and increase the possibility of triggering rust
processes.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off imme-
diately and thoroughly as the acid they contain is particu-
larly aggressive.
Detergents cause water pollution. The vehi-
cle should be washed in areas equipped for
collecting and cleaning the liquid used in the
washing process.

INTERIORSRegularly check that water is not trapped under the mats
(due to water dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.), as this
would cause oxidation of the sheet metal.
Never use flammable products, such as
petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean the
car inside. The electrostatic charges which are
generated by rubbing during the cleaning opera-
tion may cause a fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol bottles in the vehicle:
risk of bursting. Aerosol bottles must not
be exposed to a temperature exceeding 50 °C.
When the car is exposed to sunlight, inner tem-
perature can greatly exceed this value.
WARNING
SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner. It is
advisable to use a moist brush on velvet upholstery.
Rub the seats with a sponge moistened with a solution of
water and neutral detergent.
INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior parts with a moist cloth and
a solution of water and mild soap. Use specific products
for cleaning plastic, without solvents and specifically de-
signed to prevent damage to the appearance and colour
of the treated parts to remove grease and tough stains.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol or petroleum to clean
the instrument panel.
CLEANING SEAT PROTECTORS
In order to clean/remove stains from the
seat protectors, it is not advisable to use
alcohol or alcohol based products (e.g. solvents).
