SERVICING AND CARE

ENGINE OIL
151)
56)
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with
the vehicle parked on level ground.
Check that the oil level is between the
MIN and MAX references on the
dipstick.
If the level of the oil is close to or below
the MIN mark, add oil via the filler fitting
until the MAX mark is reached.
Take out the engine oil dipstick, clean it
with a lint-free cloth and reinsert it.
Extract it again and check that the level
is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the dipstick.
Engine oil consumption
57)
3)
The maximum engine oil consumption
is usually 400 grams every 1000 km.
When the car is new, the engine needs
to be run in; therefore the engine oil
consumption can only be considered
stabilised after the first 5000 - 6000 km.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing
the oil, let the engine turn over for a few
seconds and wait a few minutes after
turning it off before you check the level.ENGINE COOLANT FLUID
152)
58)
If the level is too low, unscrew the cap
of reservoir 4 and add the fluid
described in the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
WINDSCREEN / REAR
WINDOW WASHING FLUID
153) 154)
If the level is too low, raise the reservoir
cap 3 and add the fluid described in the
"Technical Specifications" chapter.
BRAKE FLUID
155) 156)
59)
Check that the fluid is at the max. level.
If the fluid level in the reservoir is too
low, undo the reservoir cap 1 and add
the fluid described in the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
IMPORTANT Carefully clean the cap of
the reservoir and the surrounding
surface. Take great care to ensure that
impurities do not enter the reservoir
when the cap is opened.
For topping-up, always use a funnel
with integrated filter with mesh equal to
or lower than 0.12 mm.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid is hygroscopic
(i.e. it absorbs moisture). For this
reason, if the vehicle is mainly used in
areas with a high degree of
atmospheric humidity, the fluid should
be replaced at more frequent intervals
than specified in the "Scheduled
Servicing Plan".
BATTERY
157) 158) 159)
59)
4)
The battery does not require the
electrolyte to be topped up with distilled
water.
A periodic check carried out at a Fiat
Dealership is, however, necessary to
check efficiency.
Replacing the battery
If necessary, replace the battery with
another original battery with the same
specifications. Follow the battery
Manufacturer’s instructions for
maintenance.

SERVICING
PROCEDURES
160) 162) 163)
The following pages contain the rules
on therequiredmaintenance
envisaged by the technical personnel
who designed the vehicle.
In addition to these specific
maintenance instructions specified for
routine scheduled servicing, there are
other components which may require
intervention or replacements over the
vehicle’s life cycle.
ENGINE OIL
Engine oil level check
65)
To ensure correct engine lubrication, the
oil must always be kept at the
prescribed level (see "Engine
compartment" in this chapter).
Check the oil level at regular intervals,
each time you refuel for example.
It must be checked about 5 minutes
after stopping the engine, once full
operating temperature is reached. The
vehicle must also be parked on as level
a surface as possible.
Ensure that the oil level is within the
15809036J0001EM
159
interval on the dipstick between the
minimum and maximum limits.

Changing the engine oil
See the "Scheduled servicing plan" for
the correct servicing intervals.
Choice of engine oil type
To ensure optimal performance and
maximum protection in all operating
conditions, it is advisable to use solely
ACEA-certified engine oils (see
description in "Fluid and lubricants" in
the "Technical specifications" chapter).
Additives for engine oil
It is strongly recommended not to use
additives (other than leak detection
dyes) with the engine oil.
The engine oil is a product designed
specially for the vehicle and its
performance may be deteriorated
through the use of further additives.
Disposal of used engine oil and
filters
For the disposal of the engine oil and
filters, contact the appropriate body to
determine local regulations.
IMPORTANT Used engine oil disposed
of incorrectly may seriously harm the
environment.ENGINE OIL
Engine oil level check
66)
To ensure correct engine lubrication, the
oil must always be kept at the
prescribed level (see "Engine
compartment" in this chapter).
ENGINE OIL FILTER
Replacing the engine oil filter
The engine oil filter must be replaced
each time the engine oil is changed.
It is advisable to replace it with a
genuine spare part, specifically
designed for this vehicle.
AIR FILTER
160)
Replacing the air cleaner
See the "Scheduled servicing plan" for
the correct servicing intervals.
It is advisable to replace it with a
genuine spare part, specifically
designed for this vehicle.
AIR CONDITIONING
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
66) 67)
To ensure the best possible
performance, the air conditioning
system must be checked and undergo
maintenance at a Fiat Dealership at the
beginning of the summer.
WINDSCREEN / REAR
WINDOW WIPERS
161)
Periodically clean the windscreen and
rear window and rubber profile of the
windscreen/rear window wiper blades,
using a sponge or a soft cloth and a
non-abrasive detergent. This eliminates
the salt or impurities accumulated when
driving.
Prolonged operation of the windscreen
window wipers with dry glass may
cause the deterioration of the blades, in
addition to abrasion of the surface of
the glass. To eliminate the impurities on
the dry glass, always operate the
windscreen/rear window washers.
In the case of very low outdoor
temperatures (below 0 °C), ensure that
the movement of the rubber part in
contact with the glass is not
obstructed, before activating the
windscreen/rear window wiper. Use a
suitable deicing product to release it if
required.
Do not use the windscreen wipers to
remove frost or ice.
Also avoid contact of the rubber profile
of the blades with petroleum derivatives
such as engine oil, petrol, etc.
IMPORTANT The envisaged life of the
windscreen and rear window wiper

SERVICING AND CARE

Replacing the rear window wiper
blade
Proceed as follows:
widen the two tabs as shown by the
arrows and rotate cover 1
fig. 161 outwards;
undo nut 2 and remove arm 3 from
the central pin;
correctly align the new arm;
fully tighten nut 2 and then reclose
cover 1.
Windscreen/rear window washer
The window washer nozzles are fixed
fig. 162 and fig. 163. If there is no jet of
fluid, firstly check that there is fluid in
the reservoir (see paragraph “Engine
compartment” in this chapter). Only use
the prescribed fluid; do not use only
water.Then check that the nozzle holes are
not clogged; use a needle to unblock
them if necessary.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
162) 163)
68)
Adequate maintenance of the engine
exhaust system represents the best
protection against leaks of carbonmonoxide into the passenger
compartment.
If an unusual noise from the exhaust or
the presence of smoke in the
passenger compartment is identified, or
if the underbody or rear section of the
vehicle have been damaged, have the
entire exhaust system and adjoining
bodywork areas checked at a Fiat
Dealership to identify any components
which are broken, damaged, worn or
have moved from their correct fitting
position.
Open welding or loose connections
may permit exhaust gas to enter the
passenger compartment.
Have the exhaust system checked
every time the vehicle is raised. Replace
the components where necessary (for
these operations, contact a Fiat
Dealership).
In normal operating conditions, the
catalytic converter does not require
maintenance. To ensure that it operates
correctly, however, and prevent it from
getting damaged, it is extremely
important that the engine operates
perfectly.
To minimise the risk of damaging the
catalytic converter, proceed as follows:do not stop the engine or deactivate
the ignition device with gear engaged
and vehicle in motion;
