ENGINE COOLANT fig. 11-12
The coolant level must be checked when
the engine is cold and must be between
the MINand MAXlines on the vessel.
If the level is so, slowly pour a mixture of
demineralised water and FL Selenia PA-
RAFLU UP in a 50-50 proportion.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU UPand
distilled water gives freeze protection to
–35°C.
When the vehicle is used under particu-
larly harsh climate conditions, we recom-
mend using a 60% mixture of PARAFLU
UPand 40% demineralised water.
IMPORTANT Do not remove the cap
from the vessel when the engine is very
hot: risk of burns.

PARAFLU UP antifreeze is
used in the engine cooling sy-
stem. Use fluid of the same type con-
tained in the cooling system for top-
ups. PARAFLU UP may not be mixed
with other types of fluids. If this ac-
cidentally occurs, do not start the en-
gine and contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
The cooling system is pres-
surised. If required, replace
the cap with an original spare part so
as not to compromise system effi-
ciency.
