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.

SC35, in the following concentrations:
30% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35 and 70% water in
summer.
50% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35 and 50% water in

WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW
WIPER/WASHERBLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part using special products;
TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is recommended. 
Replace the blades if the rubber edge is deformed or worn.
In all cases, it is advisable to replace them approximately once
a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce the possibility of dam-
age to the blades:❒
make sure that the rubber part is not stuck to the wind-
screen at sub-zero temperatures. Use an antifreeze
product to release it if required;
❒
remove any snow from the glass: in addition to pro-
tecting the blades, this prevents effort on the motor 
and overheating;
❒
do not operate the windscreen and the rear screen
wipers on dry glass.
RUBBER HOSESAs far as the brake system and fuel rubber hoses are concerned,
follow the “Scheduled Servicing Programme” in this chapter care-
fully.
Ozone, high temperatures and prolonged lack of fluid in the sys-
tem may cause hardening and cracking of the hoses, with pos-
sible leaks. Careful control is therefore necessary.
Driving with worn wiper blades is a serious
hazard, because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.

If the jet of fluid is inadequate, firstly check that there is
fluid in the reservoir: (see “Checking fluid levels” in this
chapter).
Then check that the nozzle holes are not clogged, if nec-
essary clean them using a needle.
The windscreen jets are directed by adjusting the nozzle
angle.
Fluid jets shall be directed at about 
1/3height from the win-
dow upper edge.
