ANNUAL INSPECTION SCHEDULE
– Inspect conditions of. engine, gear-
box, transmission, piping (exhaust -
fuel feed - brakes), rubber parts
(boots - sleeves - bushings - etc.),
brake and fuel line hoses.
– Check for bonnet and boot lock
cleanness, lever cleanness and lubri-
cation.
– Check battery charge status.
– Check conditions of various con-
trol belts.
– Check and top up fluid levels (en-
gine coolant, brakes, windscreen
washer, battery, etc.).
– Change engine oil.
– Replace engine oil filter.
– Replace pollen filter (where fitted). The following annual inspection
schedule is recommended for
cars travelling less than
20,000 km a year (e.g. approxi-
mately 10,000 km). The schedule
includes the following operations:
– Check tyre condition and wear
and adjust pressure, if required (in-
cluding spare wheel).
– Check operation of lights (head-
lights, direction indicators, hazard
lights, boot light, passenger compart-
ment ceiling light, glove compartment
light, instrument panel lights, etc.).
– Check windscreen wiper/washer
and adjust nozzles.
– Check position wear of wind-
screen/rear window wiper blades.
– Check front brake pad conditions
and wear.
ADDITIONAL
CHECKS
Every 1,000 kmor before long
trips, check and top up as necessary:
– engine coolant level, brake fluid
level, windscreen washer liquid level,
tyre pressure and conditions.
Every 3,000 kmcheck and top up
as necessary: engine oil level.
We recommend using FL Selenia
products which were specifically de-
signed and made for use in Fiat vehi-
cles (see
CAPACITIEStable in TECHNICAL
SPECIFICATIONS
).

CHECKING FLUID LEVELS
fig. 1
P4Q01095
Do not smoke while
working in the engine
compartment: the pres-
ence of flammable gas and
vapour could cause a fire.
Be very careful: scarves,
ties and other loose arti-
cles of clothing could eas-
ily get caught up in moving parts.
This can be extremely danger-
ous.
1. Engine oil - 2. Battery - 3. Brake fluid - 4. Windscreen washer fluid - 5. Engine
coolant.
Be careful not to mix up
the various types of fluids
when you are topping up:
they are all mutually incompati-
ble and could damage the car. ENGINE OIL
Check engine oil with the car on
level ground and while the engine is
still warm (approximately 5 minutes
after stopping the engine).
The oil level must be between the
MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick
B-fig. 2.The space between MIN and MAX
equals about 1 litre of oil.
If the oil level is near or even below
the MINmark, pour in oil through
the filler hole Auntil it reaches the
MAXmark.
The level of the oil should never ex-
ceed the MAXmark.

Do not travel with the
windscreen washer reser-
voir empty. The wind-
screen washer is fundamental for
improving visibility. Some windscreen wiper
additives on the market
are flammable. The en-
gine compartment contains hot
parts which could start a fire in
the event of contact.
BRAKE FLUID fig. 5
Unscrew cap check that the fluid
level in the reservoir is at maximum.
Fluid level in the reservoir shall not
exceed the MAXmark. Check coolant level when the engine
is cold. The level should be included
between the MIN and MAXrefer-
ence lines on the reservoir.
If the level is low, top up slowly
through the filler on the reservoir
with a 50-50 mixture of distilled wa-
ter and FL Selenia PARAFLU UP
fluid until the level approaches the
MAX line. A 50-50 mixture of
PARAFLU UPand distilled water
gives freeze protection to –35°C.
For particularly hard climate condi-
tions, we recommend use of a 60%
PARAFLU UP and 40% demineralized
water mixture.
The engine cooling sys-
tem works with
PARAFLU UP. Top up
only with the same fluid con-
tained in the cooling circuit.
PARAFLU UP cannot be mixed
with other fluids. Should this take
place, do not start the engine and
contact Fiat Dealership.
WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WASHER LIQUID
To add liquid remove the cap A-
fig. 4.
Use a mixture of water and
TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35
fluid in the following concentrations:
30% of TUTELA PROFESSIONAL
SC35and 70% of water in summer.
50% of TUTELA PROFESSIONAL
SC35and 50% of water in winter.

The windscreen washer jets can be
directed by adjusting the inclination of
the nozzles. Direct the spray so that
it reaches the highest point reached
by the blades. BODYWORK
PROTECTING THE CAR
FROM ATMOSPHERIC
AGENTS
The main causes of rust are:
– atmospheric pollution;
– salt and humidity in the atmos-
phere (coastal or very hot and humid
areas);
– environmental conditions that are
specific to the season.
In addition, the abrasiveness of dust
in the atmosphere and sand carried by
the wind as well as mud and stones
kicked up by other cars must not be
underestimated.
For your Fiat 600, Fiat has used lead-
ing-edge technological solutions to ef-
fectively protect the body from rust.
These are the most important:
– painting systems and products that
make the car particularly resistant to
rust and scratching; 2) Position the new arm correctly
and fasten the nut B.
3) Replace the cover A.
NOZZLES fig. 12-13
If there is no jet of liquid, first make
sure that there is liquid in the reser-
voir: see
CHECKING FLUID LEVELSin this
chapter.
Then make sure that the holes in the
nozzles
are not clogged up. Use a pin for this
if necessary.
