If it undergoes correct service, the
vehicle can last longer. Therefore, we
advise you to regularly see to servicing
the exterior of your vehicle.
The vehicle takes advantage of the
most advanced anti-corrosion
technology. However, it is subject to
various factors.
Atmospheric corrosive agents.
Pollution (in cities and industry);
atmospheric salinity (coastal areas,
especially in warm weather);
seasonal weather conditions and
hygrometrics (salt spread on roads in
winter, street washing water, etc.).
Abrasive actions
Atmospheric dust, sand, mud, gravel
spattered from other vehicles, etc.
You need to take precautions against
these risk factors.
What not to do
Remove traces of oil or clean the
mechanical components (e.g. the
engine compartment), underbody,
components with hinges (e.g. inside the
doors) and exterior parts made of
painted plastic (e.g. bumpers) using
high pressure cleaners or by using
products that have not been approved
by the Fiat Dealership. This could cause
rust or poor operation.Wash the vehicle in the sun or at low
temperatures.
Scrape off the mud or dirt without first
softening it with water.
Allow dirt to build up on the exterior.
Allow rust to form on damaged parts of
the body.
Dissolve spots with solvents not
approved of by Fiat service; they could
damage the paint.
Drive in snow or mud without washing
the vehicle afterwards, especially the
wheel arches and underbody.
What to do
Wash your vehicle frequently, with the
engine stopped, with shampoos
approved by our Fiat Dealer technicians
(never with abrasives) and rinse
thoroughly with sprayed water:
resin from trees or industrial
substances;
mud, which forms a wet mass under
the wheel arches and underbody;
bird guano, which causes a chemical
reaction with the paint, causing rapid
discolouring and can even cause the
paint to detach;
you must remove these spots, as
over time, not even polishing will
remove them;
salt, especially in the wheel arches
and underbody, after driving on roads
where anti-ice substances have been
spread.Regularly remove resin, leaves etc., that
has fallen on the vehicle.
Respect the local laws concerning
washing vehicles (e.g. do not wash your
vehicle in the road).
To prevent damage to the bodywork,
keep an adequate distance from other
cars in front when you drive on gravel.
If the paint is damaged, retouch it
quickly to prevent corrosion from
forming.
If the vehicle has an anti-corrosion
warranty, do not forget to have it
checked periodically. Please see the
Scheduled Service Plan.
If you have to clean the mechanical
parts (e.g. hinges), you need to have
the protection renewed by using
products approved by the Fiat
Dealership.
IMPORTANT We have selected
products specific to maintenance
available at Fiat sales points.
Versions with matt paint
This type of vehicle requires a few
precautions.
What not to do
use wax-based products (gloss);
polish vigorously;
use automatic car washers;
wash the car with high pressure
cleaners;
apply stickers to the painted surfaces
(they might leave traces).

SERVICING AND CARE

INTERIOR
212) 213) 214)
62) 63)
If it undergoes correct service, the
vehicle can last longer. Therefore, we
advise you to regularly see to servicing
the interior of your vehicle.
Every spot must be seen to promptly.
Whatever caused the stain, use cold,
soapy water (possibly warm) based on
mild soap.
Detergents are prohibited (liquid
detergent for dishes, powdered
detergent, alcohol-based products).
Use a soft cloth.
Rinse and blot the excess water.
Fabric (seats, door coverings, etc.)
Dust the fabric regularly.
Liquid spots
Use soapy water.
Blot lightly (without rubbing) with a soft
cloth, then rinse and remove residual
liquid.
Solid or pasty spots
Immediately and delicately remove the
excess solid or pasty material with a
spatula (working from the edges to the
middle, keeping the spot from growing).
Clean as indicated for liquid spots.
Special procedure for candy,
chewing gum
Apply an ice cube to crystalise it, then
proceed as indicated for solid spots.IMPORTANT For any interior service
advice or in case of unsatisfactory
results, see a Fiat Dealership.
Dismounting/remounting
removable equipment original to
the vehicle
If you need to remove original
equipment from the passenger
compartment (for example, mats) in
order to clean it, be sure to replace
them carefully on the correct side (the
driver's mat goes on the driver's side)
and fasten them using the components
supplied with them (for example, the
driver's mat must be held in place with
the standard fastening elements).
In any case, when the vehicle is
stopped, make sure nothing can
interfere with driving (impedes use of
the pedals: a heel that catches on the
mat, etc.).
What not to do
Placing objects where the diffusers are,
such as deodorants, air fresheners,
etc., that could damage the dashboard
trim.
WARNING
212)Never use flammable products, such
as petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean
the inside of the vehicle. The electrostatic
charges which are generated by rubbing
during the cleaning operation may cause a
fire.213)Do not keep aerosol cans in the
vehicle: they might explode. Aerosol cans
must not be exposed to a temperature
exceeding 50°C. When the vehicle is
exposed to sunlight, the internal
temperature can greatly exceed this value.
214)There must be no obstacles on the
floor underneath the pedals; make sure
that mats are always flat and do not
interfere with the pedals.
IMPORTANT
62)We advise you not to use a high
powered or spray cleaner inside the
passenger compartment: without the
necessary precautions, you could damage
the electrical or electronic components in
the vehicle.
63)Never use alcohol, petrols and
derivatives to clean the dashboard and
instrument panel lens.
