ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY
THE OWNER
If, after buying the car, you decide to install electrical
accessories that require a permanent electric supply
(alarm, satellite antitheft system, etc.) or accessories that
in any case burden the electric supply, contact Fiat
Dealership, whose qualified personnel, besides suggesting
the most suitable devices belonging to Lineaccessori Fiat,
will also evaluate the overall electric absorption,
checking whether the vehicle electric system is able to
withstand the load required, or whether it needs to be
integrated with a more powerful battery.
INSTALLATION OF ELECTRIC/
ELECTRONIC DEVICES
Electric/electronic devices installed after buying the car
or in aftermarket shall bear the and marking:
Fiat Auto S.p.A. authorizes the installation of
transceivers provided that installation is carried out at
a specialized shop, workmanlike performed and in
compliance with manufacturer's specifications.
IMPORTANT Installation of devices resulting in
modifications of car characteristics may cause driving
license seizing by traffic agents and also the lapse of

the warranty as concerns defects due to the
abovementioned modification or traceable back to it
directly or indirectly.
Fiat Auto S.p.A. declines all responsibility for damages
caused by the installation of non-genuine accessories
or not recommended by Fiat Auto S.p.A. and installed
not in compliance with the specified requirements.
RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND CELLULAR
TELEPHONES
Radio transceiver equipment (e.g.: e-tacs mobile
phones, HAM radio systems and the like) shall not be
used inside the vehicle unless a separate aerial is
mounted on the roof.
IMPORTANT The use of similar devices inside the
passenger compartment (without separated aerial)
produces radio-frequency electromagnetic fields
which, amplified by the resonance effects inside the
passenger compartment, may cause electrical systems
equipping the vehicle to malfunction. This could
compromise safety in addition to constituting a
potential hazard for the passengers.
In addition, transmission and reception of these
devices may be affected by the shielding effect of the
vehicle body.
As concerns EC-approved mobile phones (GSM,
GPRS, UMTS), strictly comply with the instructions for
use provided by the mobile phone’s manufacturer.
ANNUAL INSPECTION
SCHEDULE
For cars with an annual mileage of below 20,000 km
(for example about 15,000 km) the following yearly
inspection programme is provided:
❒check tyre conditions/wear and adjust pressure if
required (including the spare wheel);
❒check lighting system operation (headlights,
direction indicators, hazard lights, boot lights,
passenger compartment lights, warning lights, etc.);
❒check windscreen/washer
(nozzles/and blade position regulation)
❒check front disk brake pad conditions and wear;
❒sight inspect the conditions of: engine, gearbox,

❒change engine oil;
❒change engine oil filter;
❒replace pollen filter (where provided).
ADDITIONAL CHECKS
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys, check and top
up if required:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions.
Every 3,000 km check and top up if required: engine
oil level.
You are recommended to use FL Selenia products,
designed and produced specifically for Fiat cars (see
table “Capacities” in section “Technical
