ENGINE COOLANT FLUID fig. 11
The coolant level shall be checked with
cold engine and shall not be lower than
the MINon the reservoir.
If the level is low, pour slowly a mixture
of 50% distilled water and 50%
PARAFLU UPby FL Seleniathrough
the filler neck A.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU UPand
distilled water gives freeze protection to
–35°C.
For particularly hard climate conditions, we
recommend use of a 60% PARAFLU UP
and 40% demineralized water mixture. Used engine oil and filter con-
tain harmful substances for
the environment. Contact Fi-
at Dealership to have the oil
and filter changed.
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 5000 - 6000 km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption de-
pends on driving style and the conditions
under which the car is used.
IMPORTANT Do not add oil with speci-
fications other than that already in the en-
gine.fig. 11F0L0194m
The cooling system uses
PARAFLU UP antifreeze. Do
not add fluid having different
specifications from that al-
ready existing. PARAFLU UP cannot be
mixed with other types of fluids. Should
other fluids be added, do not start the
engine and contact Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible.
Do not remove the reservoir
cap when the engine is hot:
you risk scalding yourself.
WARNING
The cooling system is pres-
surised. If necessary, replace
the cap only with another genuine
one, otherwise system efficiency could
be compromised.

BRAKE FLUID fig. 15
Unscrew cap A: 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 lu-
bricants" (see chapter "Technical charac-
teristics").
NOTE Clean accurately the tank cap A
and the surrounding surface. 2.2 versions
Contact Fiat Dealership for topping up or
changing the power steering fluid.
Do not allow the power
steering fluid to touch the
hot parts of the engine: it is inflam-
mable.
WARNING
fig. 15F0L0196m
Make sure that the highly cor-
rosive brake fluid does not drip
onto the paintwork; if it does,
wash it off immediately with
water.
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 mois-
ture, for this reason, if the vehicle is main-
ly used in areas with a high degree of at-
mospheric humidity, the fluid should be
replaced at more frequent intervals than
specified in the “Service schedule”.

DIESEL FUEL FILTER
DRAINING THE CONDENSE
(Multijet versions)
AIR FILTER/POLLEN
FILTER
Air cleaner or pollen filter replacement
shall be carried out at a Fiat Dealership.
Brake fluid is poisonous and
highly corrosive. In the event
of accidental contact, wash the parts
involved immediately with neutral
soap and water, then rinse thor-
oughly. Call the doctor immediately
if the fluid is swallowed.
WARNING
0Symbol πon the container
indicates synthetic brake flu-
id, distinguishing it from the mineral
kind. Using mineral fluids irreversibly
damages the special braking system
rubber seals.
WARNING
The presence of water in the
fuel circuit can severely dam-
age the injection system and
make the engine misfire. If the
warning light cturns on, contact a Fi-
at Dealership as soon as possible to
have the bleeding operation carried
out. Should the warning light turn on
after refuelling, water has probably
been poured into the tank: turn the en-
gine off immediately and contact a Fi-
at Dealership.
