ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The needle shows the temperature of the engine
coolant and starts supplying indications when the
fluid temperature exceeds approx. 50°C. Under
normal usage, the needle should hover around the
middle of the scale, depending on the way the vehicle
is used.
C - Low engine coolant temperature.
H - High engine coolant temperature.
Warning light B fig. 10 switches on (together with a
message on the display) to indicate that the coolant
temperature is too high; in this case, stop the engine
and contact a Fiat Dealership.
If the needle for the engine coolant
temperature reaches the red area, stop
the engine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
MULTIFUNCTION DISPLAYThe vehicle may be equipped with a multifunction
display that gives the driver useful information
depending on the previous settings.

❒press the clutch pedal down to the floor without
touching the accelerator;
❒turn the ignition key to AVV as soon as the
warning light goes out. Waiting too long will
waste the heating work carried out by the glow
plugs.
Release the key as soon as the engine starts.
IMPORTANT With the engine cold, the accelerator
pedal must be fully released when you turn the
ignition key to AVV.
If the engine does not start at the first attempt,
return the ignition key to STOP before repeating the
procedure.
If thewarning light stays on when the ignition key
is at MAR, turn the key to STOP and then back to
MAR; if the warning light remains on, try with the
other keys provided with the car.
Contact a Fiat Dealership if the engine still does not
start.
Warning light
will blink for 60
seconds after star ting or during prolonged
cranking to indicate a fault to the glow
plug heating system. Use the vehicle normally if
the engine starts, but go to a Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible.
HOW TO WARM UP THE ENGINE AFTER IT
HAS JUST STARTED
Proceed as follows:
❒drive off slowly, letting the engine turn at medium
revs. Do not accelerate abruptly;
❒do not demand to performance for the first few
kilometres. Wait until the engine coolant gauge
starts moving.

WARNING
Failure of the warning light
is
indicated by warning light.In
addition, the air bag system automatically
disables the passenger air bags (both front and
side air bags, for versions/markets, where
provided). Contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately to have the system checked.
OVERHEATED ENGINE COOLANT
(red)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning
light turns on but should go off after a few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the engine is
overheated.If the warning light comes on, proceed as follows:
❒When travelling normally: stop the vehicle, stop
the engine and check that the coolant level in
the vessel is not under the MIN line. If it is, wait
for a few minutes to allow the engine to cool
down, then slowly and carefully open the vessel
cap. Top up with coolant fluid making sure that the
liquid level is included between the MIN and
MAX lines on the vessel. Also check for leaks. Go
to a Fiat Dealership if the warning light comes
on again when the engine is next started.
❒If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions
(e.g. towing trailers uphill or fully loaded): slow
down and, if the light stays on, stop the vehicle.
Stop for two or three minutes with the engine
running and slightly accelerated to assist better
coolant circulation. Then switch the engine off.
Check correct fluid level in the vessel as described
above.
IMPORTANT On particularly demanding journeys, it
is advisable to keep the engine on and slightly
accelerated for a few minutes before switching it off.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.

REGULAR CHECKSEvery 1,000 km or before long journeys, check and, if
necessary, top up:
❒engine coolant level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre inflation pressure and condition;
❒operation of lighting system (headlamps, direction
indicators, hazard warning lights, etc.);
❒operation of screen wash/wipe system and
positioning/wear of windscreen/rear window wiper
blades.
Check and top up, if required, the engine oil level
every 3,000 km.
You are recommended to use PETRONAS
LUBRICANTS products, which have been designed
and produced specifically for Fiat vehicles (see
“Capacities” table in the “Technical specifications”
section).
HEAVY USAGE OF THE VEHICLEShould prevailing use of the vehicle be under one of
the following specially heavy conditions:
❒towing a trailer or caravan;
❒dusty roads;
❒short, repeated journeys (less than 7-8 km) at
sub-zero outside temperatures;
❒engine often idling, or driving long distances at low
speed (e.g. door to door deliveries) or long period
of idleness;
❒urban trips;
you should perform the following inspections more
frequently than shown in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan:
❒check front disc brake pad condition and wear;
❒check cleanliness of bonnet and boot locks,
cleanliness and lubrication of linkage;

ENGINE COOLANT FLUID
The coolant level should be checked when the
engine is cold and should be between the MIN and
MAX lines on the vessel.
If the level is low, pour into the vessel through cap A
fig. 169 a 50% mixture of demineralised water and
PETRONAS LUBRICANTS PARAFLU
UP
.
The mixture of 50% PARAFLU
UP
and 50% distilled
water protects against freezing down to
temperatures of -35°C. For particularly harsh climate
conditions, we recommended using a mixture of
60% PARAFLU
UP
and 40% distilled water.
WARNING
Do not remove the tank cap when the
engine is very hot as there is a risk
of scalding.The cooling system is pressurised. If
the cap needs replacing, do so with another
original or the effectiveness of the system may
be compromised.PARAFLU
UP
antifreeze is used in the
engine cooling system. Use fluid of the
same type contained in the cooling system
for top-ups. PARAFLUUP
should not be mixed
with any other type of fluid. If this happens, do
not start the engine; contact a Fiat Dealership.
