116CAR MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANTIf the sound system
or car alarm systems are not installed
correctly, they can interfere with the
working of the electronic control
units. ELECTRONIC
CONTROL UNITS
When the car is being used normally,
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 starts
with a battery charger. Always use an
auxiliary battery.Modifications or repairs
to the electrical system
carried out incorrectly
and without bearing the features
of the system in mind can cause
malfunctions with the risk of fire.
– Be particularly careful when con-
necting the battery to the electrical
system. Ensure the battery posts are
connected up to the right leads (the
polarity is correct) and check that the
connection has been made properly.
– Do not connect or disconnect the
terminals of the electronic units while
the ignition key is at MAR.
– Do not check polarity through
sparking.
– Disconnect the electronic units if
you are electrically welding the car
body. Remove the units if tempera-
tures exceed 80°C (special operations
on the bodywork etc.).

122CAR MAINTENANCE
Engine compartment
At the end of each winter season,
carefully clean the engine compart-
ment. Have this done at a garage. Leave the car in the open so that the
water can evaporate.
Do not wash the car after it has
been parked in the sun or while the
bonnet is hot: it could take the shine
off the paint.
Outside plastic parts must be
cleaned following the usual car wash-
ing procedure.
Where possible avoid parking the
car under trees; the resinous sub-
stances that certain species of tree
shed dull the paintwork and increase
the possibility of rust forming.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings
must be washed off immediately and
with great care as their acid is partic-
ularly aggressive.Detergents pollute wa-
ter. The car must there-
fore be washed in an area
equipped for the collection and
purification of the liquids used
while washing.
IMPORTANTThe engine com-
partment should be washed while the
engine is cold and with the ignition key
at STOP. After washing, make sure
that the various protections (e.g. rub-
ber boots and various guards) have
not be removed or damaged. To better protect the paintwork,
polish with specific protective wax.
When the paintwork tends to lose
its shine because of the build-up of
smog, use polish wax which has a
slightly abrasive as well as protective
action.
Windows
Use specific window cleaners to
clean the windows. Use very clean
cloths to avoid scratching the glass or
damaging its transparency.
IMPORTANT To prevent damage
to the electrical heater element, wipe
the inside of the heated rear window
gently in the same direction as the el-
ements.

Modifications or repairs
to the fuel feed system
that are not carried out
properly or do not take the sys-
tem’s technical specifications
into account can cause malfunc-
tions leading to the risk of fire. FUEL SUPPLY IGNITION
Integrated multipoint electronic in-
jection and ignition system: a single
control units controls both function
processing injection time (for fuel me-
tering) and spark advance angle at the
same time.
SPARK PLUGS
The cleanness and soundness of the
spark plugs are very important for
keeping the engine efficient and pol-
luting emissions down.
The appearance of the spark plug, if
examined by an expert eyes, is a good
way of pinpointing a problem even if
it has nothing to do with the ignition
system. Therefore, if the engine has
problems, it is important to have the
spark plugs checked at a Fiat Deal-
ership.
TRANSMISSION
CLUTCH
Mechanically controlled without
travel-free pedal.
GEARBOX
Five forward gears and reverse with
synchromesh for front gear engage-
ment.
Cyclical gear reduction and differen-
tial assembly incorporated in the gear-
box.
Drive transmission to the front
wheels by means of drive shafts con-
nected to the differential assembly and
the wheels with CV joints. The spark plugs must be
changed at the times
specified in the
SERVICE
SCHEDULE
. Only use the type of
plugs indicated. If the heat ratio
is less than required or the life
specified is not guaranteed, prob-
lems can arise.
