USING THE MANUAL
GEARBOX
To engage the gears, press the clutch ped-
al fully and shift the gear lever into one of
the required positions (the diagram is
shown on the knob fig. 2-3).
To engage the 6
thgear, move the gearshift
lever pressing slightly rightwards to pre-
vent engaging the 4
thgear accidentally. Do
the same for shifting from 6thto 5thgear.
IMPORTANT The car can only be put in-
to reverse gear when it has stopped mov-
ing completely. With the engine running,
before engaging the reverse, wait at least
2 seconds with the clutch pedal fully down
to prevent damage and grating of the
gears.
fig. 2F0M0142m
To change gears properly
you must push the clutch
pedal fully down. It is therefore es-
sential that there is nothing under the
pedals: make sure the mats are lying
flat and do not get in the way of the
pedals.
WARNING
Do not drive with your hand
resting on the gear lever as
the force exerted, even if
slight, could lead over time to
premature wear on the gearbox inter-
nal components.
To engage reverse R (6-speed gearbox)
from neutral, proceed as follows: raise ring
Aunder the knob and at the same time
move the gearshift lever leftwards and
then forward fig. 2.
For 1.4
16vversion, to engage reverse R
from neutral, lift the sliding ring Aunder
the knob and shift the lever to the right
and back fig. 3.
To engage reverse R (5-speed gearbox)
from neutral, proceed as follows: raise ring
Aunder the knob and at the same time
move the gearshift lever rightwards and
then forward fig. 2.

CHECKING FLUID
LEVELS
fig. 1 - 1.2 and 1.4 8Vversions
Never smoke while working
in the engine compartment:
gas and inflammable vapours may be
present, with the risk of fire.
WARNING
Be careful!, when topping up
take care not to confuse the
various types of fluids: they
are all incompatible with one
another and could seriously damage
the car.
1.Engine coolant
2.Battery
3.Windscreen washer fluid
4.Brake fluid
5.Engine oil.

If the oil level is near or even below the
MINmark, add oil through the filler neck
A, until reaching the MAXmark.
Oil level shall never exceed the MAX
mark.ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION
Max engine oil consumption is usually 400
grams every 1000 km.
When the car is new, the engine needs
to run in, therefore the engine oil con-
sumption can only be considered stabilised
after the first 5,000 ÷ 6,000 km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption de-
pends on driving style and the conditions
under which the car is used.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing
the oil, let the engine turn over for a few
seconds and wait a few minutes after turn-
ing it off before you check the level. ENGINE OIL fig. 5, 6, 7 and 8
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with the
car parked on level ground.
The oil level shall be included between the
MINand MAXmarks on the dipstick B.
The gap between the MINand MAX
marks corresponds to about one litre of
oil.
