CONTAINING
RUNNING COSTS
Here are some suggestions which may
help you to keep the running costs of your
car down and lower the amount of toxic
emissions released into the atmosphere.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out
in accordance with the “Service schedule”.
Tyres
Check the pressure of the tyres routine-
ly at an interval of no more than 4 weeks:
if the pressure is too low, consumption
levels increase as resistance to rolling is
higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with too much luggage
stowed in the boot. The weight of the car
(especially when driving in town) and its
trim greatly affects consumption and sta-
bility.Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from
the roof as soon as they are no longer
used. These accessories lower air pene-
tration and adversely affect consumption
levels. When needing to carry particular-
ly voluminous objects, preferably use a
trailer.
Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the amount
of time needed. Rear heated window, ad-
ditional headlights, windscreen wipers and
heater fan need a considerable amount of
energy, therefore increasing the require-
ment of current increases fuel consump-
tion (up to +25% in the urban cycle).Climate control
The air conditioner is an additional load
which greatly affects the engine leading to
higher consumption (on average up to
+20%). When the temperature outside
the car permits it, use the air vents where
possible.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified aerodynamic
items may adversely affect air drag and
consumption levels.

ANNUAL INSPECTION
SCHEDULE
For cars with an annual mileage of below
30.000 km (for example about 15.000 km)
the following yearly inspection programme
is advised:
❒check tyre conditions/wear and adjust
pressure if required (including the
space-saver spare wheel);
❒check light system operation (head-
lights, direction indicators, hazard lights,
boot lights, passenger compartment
lights, glovebox light, warning lights,
etc.);
❒check windscreen wiper/washer oper-
ation, adjust nozzles;
❒check windscreen/rear window blade
position/wear;
❒ check front disk brake pad conditions
and wear;
❒sight inspect the conditions of: engine,
gearbox, transmission, pipes and hoses
(exhaust - fuel - brakes), rubber parts
(boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.) fuel and
brake system hoses;
❒check cleanness of bonnet and boot
locks, and lever cleanness and lubrica-
tion
❒check battery charge (by optical depth
gauge);
❒visual check on various drive belt con-
ditions;
❒check and top up fluid levels (engine
coolant, brakes, windscreen washer,
battery, etc.);
❒change engine oil and oil filter, if re-
quired (Multijet versions);
❒replace pollen filter.
ADDITIONAL CHECKS
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys,
check and top up if required:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒ brake fluid level;
❒ windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions.
Every 3,000 km check and top up if re-
quired: engine oil level.
You are recommended to use FL Sele-
niaproducts, designed and produced
specifically for Fiat cars (see table “Ca-
pacities” in section “Technical specifica-

IMPORTANT - Engine oil
(petrol and Multijet versions
without DPF)
Should prevailing use of the car be under
one of the following specially heavy con-
ditions:
❒ trailer or caravan towing;
❒dusty roads;
❒short distances (less than 7-8 km) re-
peated and with external temperatures
below zero;
❒frequently idling engines or long dis-
tance low speed driving (e.g. taxis or
door-to-door deliveries) or in case of
a long term inactivity;
replace engine oil more frequently than
required on “Service schedule”.IMPORTANT - Engine oil
(Multijet versions with DPF)
Engine oil and oil filter shall be changed
when the relevant warning light, togeth-
er with the message on the display, turn
on (see section “Warning lights and mes-
sages”) or in any case every 2 years.
Should prevailing use of the car be in the
city, engine oil will waste faster.
Oil topping up, even signifi-
cant ones, do not replace the
engine oil change procedure
required when warning light
vturns on. Engine oil shall be
changed at a Fiat Dealership that will
also turn off the warning light on the
instrument panel.
IMPORTANT - Air cleaner
If the car is used on dusty roads change
the air cleaner more frequently than the
indications in the “Service schedule”.
If in doubt as to how often the engine oil
and air cleaner should be changed ac-
cording to how you use the car, contact
a Fiat Dealership.

IMPORTANT When topping up take care
not to confuse the various types of fluids:
they are all incompatible with one anoth-

IMPORTANT Never smoke while work-

flammable vapours may be present, with
the risk of fire.
