Use the diagnosis socket to check supply/engine
management systems operation, emissions and, for
versions/markets, where provided, engine oil degradation
Visually inspect conditions of: exterior bodywork,
underbody protection, pipes and hoses (exhaust, fuel
system, brakes), rubber elements (gaiters, sleeves,
bushes, etc.)
(1) Top up using the fluids indicated in the “Fluids and lubricants” paragraph of the “Technical data” chapter and only after checking that the system is intact.

ENGINE REGISTRATION
The air filter, oil filter: a dirty cartridge
reduces performance. You need to
replace it.
Minimum: no adjustment is needed.
CHECKING LEVELS
ENGINE OIL
An engine normally consumes oil to
lubricate it and cool the moving parts,
and it is normal to have to top up the
lubricating circuit between two oil
changes.
However, if the oil consumption is more
than 0.5 litres every 1000 km after the
run-in period, you need to contact a
Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Periodically check the oil
level and in any case before long trips,
otherwise you risk damaging the
engine.

Oil level check
The oil level should be checked with the
vehicle on a flat surface and the engine
stopped and cold.
To know the oil level exactly and to
make sure it has not exceeded the
maximum level (risk of damaging the
engine), you need to use the dipstick.The instrument panel display only
warns you when the level is at
minimum.
take out the dipstick and clean it with
a clean rag;
insert it as far as it will go;
take it back out;
check the level: it must never be
lower than "min" A fig. 265 nor above
the "max" level B.
Once you have checked the level, insert
the dipstick as far as it will go.
IMPORTANT To avoid splashing, you
can use a funnel when topping up/filling
up.
Topping up/filling the oil
The vehicle has to be on a level surface,
engine stopped and cold (e.g.: before
starting in the morning).

Have adjustments and vehicle checks
done at a Fiat Dealership so they
comply with the instructions in the
Scheduled Service Plan: all the means
and material means that allow the

Level control
Regularly check the coolant liquid level
(the engine could suffer serious damage
if the coolant liquid is out).
If you need to top up, only use products
approved by the Fiat Dealership, which
ensures:
antifreeze protection;
anti-corrosion protection in the
cooling circuit.

Refer to the Scheduled Service Plan (in
this chapter).

Filling
With the engine off, open cap 3
fig. 269. Fill it until you see the liquid,
then close the cap again.Fluid
Window washing liquid (antifreeze
product in winter)
WARNING
185)When you top up the oil, be careful
not to let oil drops fall on the engine parts,
risking a fire. Do not forget to close the cap
correctly, otherwise you could cause a fire
due to the oil splashes on parts of the hot
engine.
186)If replacing oil to a hot engine, be
careful of burn risk caused by oil backflow.
187)The engine must be stopped before
performing any operation in the engine
compartment.
188)Do not turn the engine over in a
closed space: the exhaust gases are toxic.
189)When working in the engine
compartment, make sure that the
windscreen wiper arm is in the stopped
position. Risk of injury.190)No intervention on the cooling system
should be effected when the engine is hot.
Danger of burns.
191)Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: gas and inflammable
vapours may be present, with the risk of
fire.
192)Be very careful when working in the
engine compartment when the engine is
hot: you may get burned. Do not get too
close to the radiator cooling fan: the
electric fan may start; danger of injury.
Scarves, ties and other loose clothing
might be pulled by moving parts.
193)If the engine oil is being topped up,
wait for the engine to cool down before
loosening the filler cap, particularly for
vehicles with an aluminium cap (for
versions/markets where provided).
WARNING: risk of burns!
194)The cooling system is pressurised. If
the cap needs replacing, do so with
another original or the effectiveness of the
system may be compromised. Do not
remove the reservoir plug when the engine
is hot: you risk scalding yourself.
195)Do not travel if the windscreen
washer reservoir is empty: using the
windscreen washer is essential for
improving visibility. Repeated operation of
the system without fluid could damage or
cause rapid deterioration of some system
components.
196)Some commercial additives for
windscreen washer fluid are flammable.
The engine compartment contains hot
components which may start a fire.

197)Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
corrosive. In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the affected
parts with water and mild soap. Then rinse
thoroughly. Call a doctor immediately if
swallowed.
198)The symbol
, on the brake fluid
container indicates if a brake fluid is
synthetic or mineral-based. Use of mineral
type fluids will irreparably damage the
braking system’s special rubber seals.
IMPORTANT
44)In any case, you should not exceed the
maximum filling level: you risk damaging the
engine and catalytic converter. If the
maximum level is exceeded, do not start
the engine: please see a Fiat Dealership.
45)Be careful not to confuse the various
types of fluids while topping up: they are
not compatible with each other! Topping up
with an unsuitable fluid could severely
damage the vehicle.
46)The oil level must never exceed the
MAX. mark.
47)Always top up using engine oil of the
same specifications as that already in the
engine.
48)PARAFLU UP protective anti-freeze is
used in the engine cooling system. Use
fluid of the same type as that contained in
the cooling system for any top-ups.
PARAFLU UP fluid cannot be mixed with
any other type of fluid. If this happens, do
not start the engine under any
circumstances and contact a Fiat
Dealership.49)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
IMPORTANT
5)The used engine oil and the filter that has
been replaced contain substances that are
harmful to the environment. To change the
oil and filters, we advise you to contact a
Fiat Dealership.
FILTERS
Replacement of filtering components
(air filter, passenger compartment filter,
oil filter, etc.) is provided in the vehicle's
Scheduled Service Plan.
Replacement

WARNING
199)The engine must be stopped before
performing any operation in the engine
compartment.
200)Handle the battery carefully, because
it contains sulphuric acid that must not
come into contact with eyes or skin. If that
happens, rinse thoroughly with water. If
necessary, see a doctor. Keep open
flames, incandescent items and sources of
sparks far from the battery's elements: risk
of explosion.201)When you intervene near the engine,
this last could be hot. Moreover, the
cooling fan could start up at any time. Risk
of injury.
202)Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin and
eyes. Keep open flames away from the
battery and do not use objects that might
create sparks: risk of explosion and fire.
203)Using the battery with insufficient fluid
irreparably damages the battery and may
cause an explosion.
204)When performing any operation on
the battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with special goggles.
IMPORTANT
50)Since the battery is specific, you need
to make sure you replace it with its
equivalent. Consult a Fiat Dealership.
51)Incorrect installation of electric and
electronic devices may cause severe
damage to your vehicle. After purchasing
your vehicle, if you wish to install any
accessories (anti-theft, radio phone, etc.),
go to a Fiat Dealership, which will suggest
the most suitable devices and advise you
whether a higher capacity battery needs to
be installed.
52)If the vehicle will be unused for an
extended period of time in extremely cold
weather conditions, remove the battery and
store it in a heated area to prevent it from
freezing.
