Every 1,000 km or before long jour-
neys, check and top up if required:
– engine coolant fluid level;
– brake fluid level;
– windscreen washer fluid level;
– yre pressure and conditions;– light system operation (headlights,
direction indicators, hazard lights,
etc.);
– windscreen wiper/washer opera-
tion and windscreen/rear window
blade position/wear;Every 3,000 km check and top up if
required: engine oil level.
You are recommended to use FL
Selenia, products, designed and pro-
duced specifically for Fiat vehicles (see
table “Capacities” in section “Techni-
cal specifications”).

ENGINE OIL fig. 3-4
Check engine oil with the car on lev-
el ground and while the engine is still
warm (approximately five minutes af-
ter stopping the engine).
Extract dipstick Aand clean it, then
fully insert it again and check that the
level is between the MINand MAX
reference lines on the dipstick.
The space between the MINand the
MAXreference corresponds to ap-
proximately one litre of oil.Do not add oil with dif-
ferent specifications from
the oil already in the en-
gine.If the engine is hot, be
very careful when you put
your hands under the
bonnet as you risk burning your-
self. Remember that when the
engine is hot, the fan can start up
and cause injuries.

If the oil level is near or even below
the MIN line, pour in oil through the
filler hole B, until it reaches the MAX
level.
IMPORTANTIf the oil results to
be over the MAX line, go to a Fiat
Dealershipand have the correct oil
level restored.
IMPORTANTAfter topping up or
changing the oil, let the engine turn for
a few seconds and wait a few minutes
after stopping it before you check the
level.
The oil level must never exceed the
MAX line.Used engine oil and re-
placed oil filters contain
substances which can
harm the environment. We rec-
ommend you have the vehicle
seen to at a Fiat Dealership for
the oil and filter change. It is suit-
ably equipped for disposing of
used oil and filters in an environ-
mentally-friendly way that com-
plies with the law. Engine oil consumption
The maximum oil consumption is ap-
proximately 400 grams every 1,000 km.
When the car is new, the engine
needs to run in, therefore the engine
oil consumption can only be consid-
ered stabilised after the first 5,000 -
6,000 km.
IMPORTANTOil consumption
depends on the driving style and the
conditions of use.

Do not travel with the
windscreen washer reser-
voir empty. The wind-
screen washer is fundamental for
improving visibility.Do not start the wind-
screen washer when the
fluid is finished to prevent
damaging the pump engine.
POWER STEERING FLUID
fig. 9
The oil level, with the vehicle on lev-
el ground and the engine cold should
correspond to the MAX reference
line.
This check should be performed
when the engine is cold and with the
car on level ground.When topping up (where necessary)
make sure that the oil has the same
specifications as the oil in the system.
Apply the following procedure:
– when the engine has been started,
turn the steering wheel repeatedly on
the left and on the right; then bring it
back to its central position;
– remove cap Aand wait for the oil
level in the reservoir to stabilize;
– top up to reach the MAX refer-
ence line and put the cap back to its
place. Certain commercial ad-
ditives for windscreen
washers are inflammable.
The engine compartment con-
tains hot components which may
set it on fire.

Do not let the power
steering fluid come into
contact with hot engine
parts. It catches fire very easily.The brake fluid is poiso-
nous and very corrosive.
In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the
affected parts with water and
mild soap and rinse under run-
ning water. Immediately call a
doctor if the fluid is swallowed.
Oil consumption is ex-
tremely low. If the oil lev-
el needs topping up again
in a short period of time, have the
system checked for leakage at a
Fiat Dealership.Make sure that the high-
ly corrosive brake fluid
does not trip onto the
paintwork. If it does, wash it off
immediately with water. BRAKE AND HYDRAULIC
CLUTCH FLUID fig. 10
Remove cap Aand check that the
fluid in the reservoir is at the maxi-
mum level.
The symbol πon the
container indicates syn-
thetic brake fluid distin-
guishing it from mineral fluid. Us-
ing mineral type fluid would dam-
age the special rubber braking
system gaskets beyond repair.
