IMPORTANT - Engine oil
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 tempera-
tures 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;
replace engine oil more frequently than
required on “Service schedule”.
IMPORTANT - Air cleaner
If the car is used on dusty roads change
the air cleaner more frequently than the
indications in the “Service schedule”.
If in doubt as to how often the engine oil
and air cleaner should be changed ac-
cording to how you use the car, contact
a Fiat Dealership.IMPORTANT - Pollen filter
If the vehicle is used frequently in dusty or
heavily polluted environments it is advis-
able to replace the filtering element more
frequently; in particular it should be re-
placed if a reduction of the amount of air
admitted to the passenger compartment
is noted.
IMPORTANT - Diesel filter
The possibility of topping up with diesel
fuel not complying with EN590 European
Norm might make it necessary to replace
the filter more frequently than indicated
in the “Service schedule”.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 particu-
larly harsh conditions it is wise to check
the level of the battery fluid (electrolyte)
more frequently than specified in the “Ser-
vice schedule” in this section.
Car maintenance should be
entrusted to Fiat Dealership.
For routine and minor main-
tenance operations you wish
to carry out yourself, always make sure
you have the proper equipment, gen-
uine Fiat spare parts and the necessary
fluids; do not however carry out these
operations if you have no experience.
