WARNING
This procedure must be performed by
e
xperts because incorrect actions may
cause considerable electrical discharge.
Furthermore, battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive: avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Keep naked flames and lit cigarettes away from
the battery. Do not create sparks.
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by pushing, towing or
driving downhill. This could cause fuel to flow into
the catalytic converter and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake booster
and the power steering system are not active until
the engine is started, so you will need to apply much
more force to the brake pedal or steering wheel.
CHANGING A TYRE
The vehicle is originally equipped with the Fix&Go
automatic quick tyre repair kit (see instructions
in the next chapter). As an alternative, the vehicle
may have a normal-sized spare wheel.
Changing the wheel and correct use of the jack and
spare wheel require some precautions, which are
listed below.
WARNING
The spare wheel (for versions/markets,
w
here provided) is specific for your
vehicle.Therefore, it must not be used on other
models. Do not use spare wheels of other
models on your vehicle.The spare wheel must
be used only in an emergency. Use of the spare
wheel must kept to the minimum necessary.

INTRODUCTION
Fuses protect the electrical system: they cut in (i.e.
they blow) in the event of a fault or improper action
on the system.
Check the state of the corresponding fuse when a
device does not work: the filament A fig. 157 should
be intact.
If it is not, replace the blown fuse with a new one of
the same amperage (same colour).
B intact fuse.
C fuse with damaged filament.
To change a fuse, use the tongs D located in the tool
bag or the Fix & Go container (for versions/markets,
where provided).

ENGINE OIL
Engine oil check
Check the oil level a few minutes (about 5) after the
engine has stopped, with the vehicle parked on
level ground.
Take out the dipstick A fig. 168, clean it and then
fully reinsert it; take it out and check that the level is
between the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick.
The interval between MIN and MAX corresponds to
about 1 litre of oil.
Topping up the engine oil
If the oil level is near or even under the MIN line,
add oil through the filler B fig. 168 to reach the MAX
line.
The oil level should never exceed the MAX line.IMPORTANT If the engine oil level after the check is
over the MAX level, go to a Fiat Dealership to
have the correct level restored.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing the oil, let the
engine turn over for a few seconds and wait a few
minutes after turning it off before you check the
level.
Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption is usually 400
grams every 1000 km.
When the vehicle is new, the engine needs to be run
in, therefore the engine oil consumption can only
be considered stabilised after the first 5,000 - 6,000
km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption depends on
driving style and the conditions under which the
vehicle is used.
IMPORTANT Always top up using engine oil of the
same types as that already in the engine.
WARNING
Be very careful working in the engine
c
ompartment when the engine is hot :
you may get burned. Remember that the fan
may start up if the engine is hot : this could
injure you. Make sure that scarves, ties and
other loose fitting garments do not get caught
up in moving parts.
