FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PRODUCTS
Use
For diesel engines, in case of emergency if original products are not available, lubricants with minimum performace ACEA B4 can be considered
acceptable; in this case no optimal performance of the engien can be assured and therefore we recommend to replace it as soon as possible
with the lubricant recommended by the Fiat Service Network.
Use of products with characteristics that are lower than ACEA B4 - SAE 5W-40 for Diesel engines, may damage the engine not under
warranty.
For weather conditions that are severe, ask the service network which product of the PETRONAS LUBRICANTS is more suitable.Original
