Turning the ignition key to MAR the warning
light on the dial turns on, but it should go off
after few seconds.
The warning light turns on (on certain versions
together with the message on the display) when
the system is inefficient or unavailable.
In this case the braking system keeps its
effectiveness unchanged, but without the
potential offered by the ABS system. Drive
carefully and contact Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
RAIN SENSOR FAILURE
The warning light on the dial turns on (on certain
versions together with the message on the

IMPORTANT - Battery
The charge in the battery should be checked at the
start of winter to limit the risk of electrolyte freezing.This check should be carried out more frequently if
the car is used mainly for short trips, or if it is fitted
with accessories that permanently absorb electricity
even with the ignition key removed, especially in the
case of after market accessories. If the car is used in
hot climates or particularly harsh conditions it is wise
to check the level of the battery fluid (electrolyte)
more frequently than specified in the “Service
schedule” in this section.

MAINTENANCE
Car maintenance should be entrusted to Fiat Dealership. For routine and minor maintenance
operations you wish to carry out yourself, always make sure you have the proper equipment,
genuine Fiat spare parts and the necessary fluids; do not however carry out these operations if you
have no experience.
Page 272 of 314

BRAKE FLUID
Unscrew cap: check that the fluid level in the reservoir is at maximum.
Fluid level in the reservoir shall not exceed the MAXmark.
If fluid has to be added, it is suggested to use the brake fluid in table
"Fluids and lubricants" (see chapter "Technical characteristics").
NOTE Clean accurately the tank cap and the surrounding surface.
At plug opening, pay maximum attention in order to prevent any
impurities from entering the tank.
For topping up, always use a funnel with integrated filter with mesh equal to or lower than 0.12 mm.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs moisture, for this reason, if the vehicle is mainly used in areas with a high degree
of atmospheric humidity, the fluid should be replaced at more frequent intervals than specified in the “Service
schedule”.

Make sure that the highly corrosive brake fluid does not drip onto the paintwork. If it does, wash it
off immediately with water.
Symbol πon the container indicates synthetic brake fluid, distinguishing it from
the mineral kind. Using mineral fluids irreversibly damages the special braking
system rubber seals.WARNING
WARNINGBrake fluid is poisonous and highly corrosive. In the event of accidental contact,
wash the parts involved immediately with neutral soap and water, then rinse
thoroughly. Call the doctor immediately if the fluid is swallowed.

CHANGING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a genuine spare
part having the same specifications.If a battery with different specifications is fitted, the
service intervals given in the “Service schedule” in this
section will no longer be valid. Refer to the
instructions provided by the battery manufacturer.

WARNING
If the car is left inactive for long periods at cold, remove the battery and store it in
a warm place to prevent freezing.WARNING
When working on the battery or near it, always wear the proper goggles. Batteries contain substances that are very harmful for the environment. You are advised to have the
battery changed at a Fiat Dealership, which is properly equipped for disposing of used batteries
respecting nature and the law.
Incorrect fitting of electrical and electronic accessories can seriously damage the car.
If after buying the car, you want to install electric accessories which require permanent electric
supply (alarm, free-hand phone kit, etc.) contact Fiat Dealership whose qualified personnel, in
addition to suggesting the most suitable devices, will evaluate the overall electric absorption,
checking whether the car’s electric system is capable of withstanding the load required, or whether
it should be integrated with a more powerful battery.
