❒Reinstall the drain plug and gasket.
Tighten the plug with a wrench to the
specified torque.
NOTE
(For Diesel Engine Model)
Whenever the engine oil is changed, the
monitoring system to find the next oil
change stage must be reset whether the
oil pressure light blinks or not. For details
on how to reset the system, ask your Fi-
at Dealership. CHANGING ENGINE OIL AND

OpenClose
The engine oil temperature
may be high enough to burn
your fingers when the drain plug is
loosened. Wait until the drain plug is
cool enough to touch with your bare
hands.
WARNING
60G306A
New and used oil can be
hazardous.
Children and pets may be harmed by
swallowing new or used oil. Keep new
and used oil and used oil filters away
from children and pets.
Repeated, prolonged contact with
used engine oil may cause skin can-
cer.
Brief contact with used oil may irri-
tate skin.
WARNING
To minimize your exposure
to used oil, wear a long-
sleeve shirt and moisture- proof
gloves (such as dishwashing gloves)
when changing oil. If oil contacts your
skin, wash thoroughly with soap and
water.
Launder any clothing or rags if wet
with oil.
Recycle or properly dispose of used
oil and filters.

NOTE If your engine is equipped with the
hightension cord type ignition wiring and
you experience some firing problem of
spark plugs, such as, hard engine- starting,
misfire etc., the cause may be located not
only on spark plugs but also on deterio-
rated ignition wirings (generally, used for
more than 80000 km or five years). If
spark plug replacement does not solve the
problem, have the ignition wiring and oth-
er ignition system inspected by your Fiat
Dealership.FUEL FILTER
(Diesel engine)
The fuel filter works as a water sedimen-
tor as well.
Drain water when the fuel filter warning
light comes on. To drain water:
❒Place a pan or ample rag under the fu-
el filter drain nozzle.
❒Loosen the drain knob (1). The water
will be drained.
❒Tighten the drain knob when the water
changes to the diesel fuel.
❒Tighten the drain knob.

NOTE With disc brakes, the fluid level can
be expected to gradually fall as the brake
pads wear.
BRAKES
BRAKE FLUID
Check the brake fluid level by looking at
the reservoir in the engine compartment.
Check that the fluid level is between the
“MAX” and “MIN” lines. If the brake flu-
id level is near the “MIN” line, fill it up to
the “MAX” line with TUTELA TOP 4 SAE
J1704 o DOT4 brake fluid.
79J010
Failure to follow the guide-
lines below can result in per-
sonal injury or serious damage to the
brake system.
– If the brake fluid in the reservoir
drops below a certain level, the brake
warning light on the instrument pan-
el will come on (the engine must be
running with the parking brake fully
disengaged). Should the light come
on, immediately ask your Fiat Deal-
ership to inspect the brake system.
– A rapid fluid loss indicates a leak in
the brake system which should be in-
spected by your Fiat Dealership im-
mediately.
WARNING– Brake fluid can harm your
eyes and damage painted
surfaces. Use caution when refilling
the reservoir.
– Do not use any fluid other than SAE
J1704 or DOT4 brake fluid. Do not
use reclaimed fluid or fluid that has
been stored in old or open contain-
ers. It is essential that foreign parti-
cles and other liquids are kept out of
the brake fluid reservoir.
WARNING
Brake fluid is harmful or fa-
tal if swallowed, and harm-
ful if it comes in contact with skin or
eyes. If swallowed, do not induce
vomiting. Immediately contact a poi-
son control center or a physician. If
brake fluid gets in eyes, flush eyes
with water and seek medical atten-
tion. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Solution can be poisonous to animals.
Keep out of the reach of children and
animals.

STEERING
Steering wheel play “c”:
0 – 30 mm (0.0 – 1.2 in.)
Check the play of the steering wheel by
gently turning it from left to right and mea-
suring the distance that it moves before
you feel slight resistance. The play should
be between the specified values.
Check that the steering wheel turns eas-
ily and smoothly without rattling by turn-
ing it all the way to the right and to the left
while driving very slowly in an open area.
If the amount of free play is outside the
specification or you find anything else to
be wrong, an inspection must be per-
formed by your Fiat Dealership. PARKING BRAKE
Ratchet tooth specification “b”:
6th – 8th
Lever pull force (1):
200 N (20 kg, 44 lbs)
Check the parking brake for proper ad-
justment by counting the number of clicks
made by the ratchet teeth as you slowly
pull up on the parking brake lever to the
point of full engagement. The parking
brake lever should stop between the spec-
ified ratchet teeth and the rear wheels
should be securely locked. If the parking
brake is not properly adjusted or the
brakes drag after the lever has been fully
released, have the parking brake inspect-
ed and/ or adjusted by your Fiat Dealer-
ship.

COMPACT SPARE TIRE
(if equipped)
1.Wear indicator
2.Indicator location mark
Your vehicle comes equipped with the
compact spare tire. The compact spare is
designed to save space in your storage area,
and its lighter weight makes it easier to in-
stall if a flat tire occurs. It is only intended
for temporary emergency use, until the
conventional tire can be repaired or re-
placed. The inflation pressure of the com-
pact spare tire should be checked at least
monthly. Use a quality pocket- type infla-
tion pressure gauge and set at 4.2 bar (60
psi). At the same time, check that the tire
is stored securely. If it is not, tighten it.
Note that two or more compact spare
tires should not be used on one vehicle si-
multaneously.
54G115
The compact spare tire and
wheel are intended for tem-
porary emergency use only. Continu-
ous use of this spare can result in tire
failure and loss of control. Always ob-
serve these precautions when using
this spare:
– Your vehicle will handle differently
with this temporary spare.
– Do not exceed 80 km/h (50 mph)
speed.
– Replace this spare with a standard
tire and wheel as soon as possible.
– Use of this spare will reduce ground
clearance.
o Recommended air pressure for this
spare is 4.2 bar (60 psi).
– Do not use tire chains on the com-
pact spare. If you must use tire
chains, rearrange the wheels so stan-
dard tires and wheels are fitted to the
front axle.
WARNING
– The compact spare tire has
a much shorter tread life
than the conventional tires on your
vehicle. Replace the tire as soon as
the tread wear indicator appears.
– When replacing the compact spare
tire, use a replacement tire with the
exact same size and construction.
