Some windscreen wash-
er additives are inflam-
mable. The fluid could ig-
nite if it comes into contact with
parts in the engine compart-
ment.
A dipstick fig. 10 indicates the
amount of fluid in the washer reser-
voir.
When the fluid is fin-
ished, do not operate the
windscreen washer in or-
der to avoid damaging the pump
motor.

Fig. 11:
1.2 version
Fig. 12: 1.6 16v - 1.9 D version
Check that the level is between the
MINand MAXmarks on the reser-
voir or in correspondence of the up-
per mark (max level) on the dipstick
integral with the reservoir plug, with
the car parked on flat ground and the
engine cold.
When the fluid is hot the level may
rise over the
MAX mark.
If necessary, top up ensuring that the
fluid has the same specifications as that
in the reservoir.

FUEL SUPPLY/ IGNITION
Integrated multipoint electronic in-
jection and ignition system: only one
electronic control unit controls both
functions. It processes both the time
the injection lasts (for petrol meter-
ing) and the ignition advance angle.
Type: Multipoint.
Air cleaner: dry, with paper filtering
element.
Fuel pump: by immersion, in the tank.
Injection pressure 3 barMixture metered by electronic pro-
cessing of the data picked up by the
engine speed sensor and absolute
pressure sensor in the intake manifold.
Petrol metering system : a “Closed
Loop” (information on the combus-
tion trend transmitted by the sensor
Lambda).
Ignition order: 1-3-4-2.
Spark plugs:
Modifications or repairs
to the fuel feed system
that are not carried out
properly or do not take the sys-
tem’s technical specifications in-
to account can cause malfunc-
tions leading to the risk of fire.
LUBRICATION
Forced-feed with gear pump with
pressure relief valve incorporated.
Oil purification through full-flow car-
tridge filter.
COOLING
Cooling system with radiator, cen-
trifugal pump and expansion tank.
Thermostat on the secondary circuit
for recirculating the water from the
engine to the radiator. “By-pass con-
trolled” thermostat.
Electrical fan for cooling the radiator
with connection/disconnection, con-
trolled by a thermostatic switch lo-
cated on the radiator.
