Top up fluids
(engine coolant, brakes, battery, windscreen washer, etc.)
Check timing belt conditions (1.4 and 1.4 T-JET versions)
Check engine control system operation
(through diagnosis socket)
Replace timing belt (*)
Change engine oil and oil filter (or every 24 months)
Change brake fluid (or every 24 months)

(*) Regardless of the km covered, the timing belt shall be replaced every 4 years for particularly demanding use
(cold climates, driving in the city, idling for a long time) or in any case every 5 years
(❍)For 1.4 T-JET version, in order to ensure correct operation and avoid significant damages to the engine, it is mandatory:
- to use spark plugs specifically certified for the T-JET engine only, of the same type and brand (see paragraph “Engine”);
- to replace the plugs as often as required by the Programmed Maintenance Plan;
- we recommend to refer to the Fiat Dealership

MAINTENANCE
DEMANDING USE
OF THE CAR
Should prevailing use of the car be under
one of the following specially heavy con-
ditions:
❒trailer or caravan towing;
❒dusty roads;
❒short distances (less than 7-8 km) re-
peated and with external temperatures
below zero;
❒frequently idling engines or long dis-
tance low speed driving (e.g. taxis or
door-to-door deliveries) or in case of
a long term inactivity;
❒in cities;
perform the following inspections more
frequently than shown on the Service
Schedule:
❒check front disk brake pad conditions
and wear;
❒check cleanness of locks, bonnet and
boot and lever cleanness and lubrica-
tion;
❒visually inspect the conditions of: en-
gine, gearbox, transmission, pipes and
hoses (exhaust - fuel - brakes), rubber
parts (boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.);
❒check battery charge and liquid level
(electrolyte) (see paragraph “Charge
level check” in chapter “Maintenance
and care”);
❒visually inspect the accessory drive belt
conditions;
❒check pollen filter and replace, if re-
quired;
❒check air cleaner and replace, if re-
quired.
REGULAR
INSPECTIONS
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys,
check and top up if required:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions.
❒operation of lights (headlights, direction
indicators, hazard lights, etc.);
❒operation of the windscreen wiper/
washer system, position and wear of
the windscreen and rear window wiper
blades;
Every 3,000 km check the following and
top-up, if required:engine oil level.
You are recommended to use FL
Seleniaproducts, designed and produced
specifically for Fiat cars (see table “Ca-
pacities” in section “Technical specifica-
tions”).

WINDSCREEN WASHING
FLUID fig. 6
To top up, remove the cap A.
Pour a mixture of water and TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC 35, in the fol-
lowing concentrations:
30% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL
SC 35and 70% water in summer.
50% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL
SC 35and 50% water in winter.
In case of temperatures below –20°C, use
undiluted TUTELA PROFESSIONAL
SC 35fluid.
ENGINE COOLANT fig. 5
The coolant level must be checked when
the engine is cold and must be between
the MINand MAXlines on the vessel.
fig. 5F0R0136mfig. 6
PARAFLU UP antifreeze is
used in the engine cooling sys-
tem. Use fluid of the same
type contained in the cooling
system for top-ups. PARAFLU UP may
not be mixed with other types of fluids.
If this accidentally occurs, do not start
the engine and contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship.
The cooling system is pres-
surised. If required, replace
the cap with an original spare part so
as not to compromise system effi-
ciency. Do not remove the cap from
the vessel when the engine is hot: risk
of burns.
WARNING
F0R0137m
If the level is low, slowly pour a 50% mix-
ture of demineralised water and FL Sele-
nia PARAFLU UPthrough filler Aof the
vessel until the level approaches the MAX
line.
The 50% concentration of PARAFLU UP
demineralised water protects from freez-
ing to a temperature of –35°C.
For particularly hard climate conditions, we
recommend use of a 60% PARAFLU UP
and 40% demineralized water mixture.
Waste engine oil and oil filters
contains substances which are
dangerous for the environ-
ment. It is advisable to have
oil and filters changed by a Fiat Deal-
ership where they will be disposed of
according to the law.
Always top up using engine oil
of the same types as that al-
ready in the engine.

CAR
MAINTENANCEOil consumption is extremely
low; if another top-up should
be required after only a short
period of time, have the system checked
for leakage at a Fiat Dealership.
BATTERY
The car fits a low-maintenance battery: no
top-ups with distilled water are needed in
normal conditions of use.
CHECKING THE CHARGE fig. 9
Use the gauge A (where provided) on the
battery lid positioned as shown in fig. 9and
take action according to the colour it as-
sumes.
Refer to the table below. POWER STEERING FLUID fig. 8
Check that the oil level with the car on flat
ground and the engine cold is between the
MINand MAXlines on the reservoir
body. The level may go over the MAX
line when the oil is hot.
If topping up is required, make sure the oil
you used has the same specifications as
that already in the system.
AIR CLEANER
Have the air cleaner replaced by a Fiat
Dealership.
POLLEN FILTER
Have the pollen filter replaced by a Fiat
Dealership.
Prevent power steering flu-
id from coming into contact
with hot engine parts: the liquid is
flammable.
