6)
As the following operation is
complicated, it is advisable to contact a
Fiat Dealership.Label A fig. 279
Respect the instructions on the battery:
2no open flames and no smoking;
3eye protection compulsory;
4keep away from children;
5explosive substances;
6this Owner Handbook;
7corrosive substances.
WARNING
214)Always turn off the ignition device
before working in the engine compartment
(see the related information in the “Starting
the engine” paragraph in the “Starting and
driving” chapter).215)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.
216)When you intervene near the engine,
this last could be hot. Moreover, the
cooling fan could start up at any time. The
warning light serves to remind you of
this condition. Risk of injury.
217)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.
218)Using the battery with low fluid will
irreparably damage the battery and may
cause an explosion.
219)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. If after purchasing
the vehicle, you want to install accessories
(alarm, mobile phone, etc.), contact the Fiat
Dealership who will be able to suggest the
most suitable devices and, above all, offer
advice on the need to use a more powerful
battery.

221)For safety reasons, only a specialised
technician should carry out this operation.
Fitting a different type of tyre can alter the
vehicle's compliance with the regulations in
force, cornering performance, steering and
fitting snow chains.
222)For safety and to respect legislation in
force, when replacement is necessary, you
must only fit the same brand, size, type
and structure tyres on the same axles.
They have to have a load and speed
capacity that is at least identical to the
original tyres, or they correspond to those
recommended by a Fiat Dealership. Failure
to observe these instructions can
compromise safety and vehicle
compliance. Risk of losing control of the
vehicle.
223)If the tyres are "unidirectional", do not
switch tyres from the right-hand side of the
vehicle to the left-hand side, and vice
versa. This type of tyres can only be
switched from the front axle to the rear axle
and vice versa, keeping them on the same
side of the vehicle.
224)Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C. The
mechanical properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
IMPORTANT
53)Some driving accidents, such as
"hitting the curbstone" can damage the
tyres and change the front or rear end
adjustments. In that case, have them
checked by a Fiat Dealership.54)Caution, a missing or badly screwed on
valve cap could impact the tyre's grip and
cause a loss of pressure. Always use valve
caps that are identical to the original ones
and make sure that they are screwed on
fully.
55)Snow chains cannot be fitted with 17”
tyres, you must obtain specific equipment
from the Fiat Dealership.
56)Snow chains can only be fit on tyres of
the same dimensions as those originally on
the vehicle.
57)If you want to fit chains, you must
obtain specific ones. Consult a Fiat
Dealership.
58)Keep your speed down when snow
chains are fitted; do not exceed 50 km/h.
Avoid potholes, do not drive over steps or
pavements, and do not drive long
distances over roads without snow, to
avoid damaging both your vehicle and the
road surface.
WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WIPER
WIPER BLADES
IMPORTANT Check the status of the
wiper blades. Their duraton depends on
proper maintenance:
clean both windscreen and rear
window wipers regularly with soapy
water;
do not use them when the
windscreen and rear window are dry;
detach them from the windscreen or
rear window if they have not been used
for a long time.
59) 60) 61)
Replacing wiper blades with the
starter device inserted, engine
stopped:
completely lower the wiper arm;
lift up the wiper arms 1 and 2

SERVICING AND CARE

BODYWORK
225) 226)
7)
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 cars, etc.
You need to take precautions against
these risk factors.
What not to do
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.
Remove traces of oil or clean using
high-pressure washing devices or using
products not approved by Fiat:
– mechanical elements (e.g. engine
bay);
– underbody;
– parts with hinges (e.g. inside doors);
– painted external part made of plastic
(e.g. bumpers).
This could cause rust or poor
operation.
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
have 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 car requires a few
precautions.
What not to do
use wax-based products (gloss);
polish vigorously;
use automatic car washers;

VOLUMES
The volumes indicated are those for a basic vehicle without options: they vary depending on your vehicle's equipment. Contact
a Fiat Dealership. Volumes are indicated in kg.
Versions (marketed according to country) Standard VAN Raised VAN
Maximum authorised volume with full load (MMAC)
Total cir
culating volume (MTR)Weights indicated on the manufacturer's label (see the paragraph "Identification tag")
Weight of trailer with brakes (kg)
(*)2000
Weight of trailer without brakes (kg)
(*)750
Allowed load on tow point (kg)
(*)80
Load allowed on roof 200 (including carry container) 150 (including carry container)
(*) Trailer load (camper, boat, etc.)You need to respect the towing conditions established by the highway code. For any tow hook adaptation, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
In the case of towing a vehicle, the total circulating volume (vehicle + trailer) must not be exceeded. However, the rear MMTA
can be exceeded within the limit of 15% and the MMAC can be exceeded within the limit of 10% or 100 kg (the first of these
two limits to be reached). In both cases, the maximum speed of both must not exceed 80 km/h (depending on the local
legislation) and the tyre pressure must be increased 0.2 bar (3 PSI).
Given that the engine performance and behaviour on inclines are subject to a drop when going uphill, we advise reducing the
maximum allowed volume by 10% for altitudes of 1,000 meters and by 10% for every extra 1,000 meters.
