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 remove the
reservoir cap when the
engine is hot: you risk
scalding yourself. ENGINE COOLANT fig. 5-6Check coolant level when the engine
is cold. The level should be included
between the MINand MAXrefer-
ence line on the reservoir.If the level is low, loosen the header
tank cap Aand slowly pour a mixture
of the fluid specified in the ”Lubricant
and fluid specifications” table in sec-
tion “Technical Specifications”,
through the filler neck until nearing the
MAXmark.
The antifreeze mixture contained in
the cooling circuit guarantees protec-
tion down to –40°C.

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

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.

These devices will, in fact, run off the
battery even when the key is not in-
serted (car parked) and can deploy the
battery.
The total intake of these systems
(factory and after-market) must be less
than a 0.6 mA x Ah (of the battery), as
shown in the following table:
Battery:
50 Ah
60 Ah
70 AhMaximum
admitted
stand-by intake:
30 mA
36 mA
42 mA
Furthermore, remember that high in-
take electric devices (such as baby bot-
tle warmers, vacuum cleaners, cellular
phones, mini-fridges, etc.) powered
when the engine is off can deploy the
battery.
IMPORTANTIf you need to fit ad-
ditional systems in the car, remember
that improper wiring connections, in
particular if they affect safety devices,
are dangerous.ELECTRONIC
CONTROL UNITS
When the car is being used normal-
ly, special measures are not necessary.
The following instructions must be
followed very carefully, however, if
you work on the electrical system or
in cases where emergency starting is
necessary:
– never disconnect the battery from
the electrical system while the engine
is running.
– disconnect the battery from the
electrical system if you are recharg-
ing it.
– never perform emergency start-
ups with a battery charger. Always use
an auxiliary battery.
– be particularly careful when con-
necting the battery to the electrical
system. Make sure that the polarity is
correct and that the connection is ef-
ficient.
– before connecting/disconnecting
the electronic unit terminals make
sure the ignition key.
