Remove cap Aand check the fluid
level.
If it is necessary to top up the fluid,
pour in a mixture of water and
TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35
fluid in the following proportions:
– 30% of TUTELA PROFES-
SIONAL SC 35and 70% of water in
summer; The cooling system is
pressurised. If necessary,
replace the cap only with
another genuine one, otherwise
system efficiency could be com-
promised.– 50% of TUTELA PROFES-
SIONAL SC 35and 50% of water in
winter;
– use undiluted TUTELA PRO-
FESSIONAL SC 35for tempera-
tures below –20°C.

Do not travel with the
windscreen washer reser-
voir empty. The wind-
screen washer is fundamental for
improving visibility.Do not start the wind-
screen washer when the
fluid is finished to prevent
damaging the pump engine.
POWER STEERING FLUID

The oil level, with the vehicle on lev-
el ground and the engine cold should
correspond to the MAX reference
line.
This check should be performed
when the engine is cold and with the
car on level ground.When topping up (where necessary)
make sure that the oil has the same
specifications as the oil in the system.
Apply the following procedure:
– when the engine has been started,
turn the steering wheel repeatedly on
the left and on the right; then bring it
back to its central position;
– remove cap Aand wait for the oil
level in the reservoir to stabilize;
– top up to reach the MAX refer-
ence line and put the cap back to its
place. Certain commercial ad-
ditives for windscreen
washers are inflammable.
The engine compartment con-
tains hot components which may
set it on fire.

Do not let the power
steering fluid come into
contact with hot engine
parts. It catches fire very easily.The brake fluid is poiso-
nous and very corrosive.
In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the
affected parts with water and
mild soap and rinse under run-
ning water. Immediately call a
doctor if the fluid is swallowed.
Oil consumption is ex-
tremely low. If the oil lev-
el needs topping up again
in a short period of time, have the
system checked for leakage at a
Fiat Dealership.Make sure that the high-
ly corrosive brake fluid
does not trip onto the
paintwork. If it does, wash it off
immediately with water. BRAKE AND HYDRAULIC
CLUTCH FLUID fig. 10
Remove cap Aand check that the
fluid in the reservoir is at the maxi-
mum level.
The symbol πon the
container indicates syn-
thetic brake fluid distin-
guishing it from mineral fluid. Us-
ing mineral type fluid would dam-
age the special rubber braking
system gaskets beyond repair.

USEFUL ADVICE FOR
LENGTHENING THE LIFE
OF YOUR BATTERY
To preserve the battery charge and
its functions, observe the following in-
structions:
– when you park the car, ensure the
doors, tailgate and bonnet are closed
properly. The ceiling lights must be off;
– the battery cables must be well fas-
tened;
– do not keep accessories (e.g.:
sound system, hazard lights, etc.)
switched on for a long time when the
engine is not running;
– before performing any operation
on the electrical system, disconnect
the battery negative cable.IMPORTANTA battery which is
kept at a charge of less than 50% for
any length of time will be damaged by
sulphation leading to a reduction in
cranking power and a higher risk of
the battery electrolyte freezing (this
may even occur at –10°C). If the car
is inactive for a long period of time, re-
fer to “Storing the car”, in “Getting to
know your car” section.If after buying the car, you want to
install electric accessories which re-
quire permanent electric supply, con-
tact a Fiat Dealership, whose qual-
ified personnel, in addition to sug-
gesting the most suitable devices be-
longing to the Lineaccessori Fiat, will
evaluate the overall electric absorp-
tion, checking whether the vehicle’s
electric system is capable of with-
standing the load required, or whether
it should be integrated with a more
powerful battery.

Windows
Use specific window cleaners to
clean the windows. Use very clean
cloths to avoid scratching the glass or
damaging the transparency.
IMPORTANT To prevent damage
to the electric heater element, wipe
the inside of the heated rear window
gently in the same direction as the el-
ements.
Engine compartment
At the end of each winter season,
carefully clean the engine compart-
ment. Have this done at a garage.IMPORTANTThe engine com-
partment should be washed while the
engine is cold and with the ignition key
at S. After washing, make sure that the
various protections (e.g. rubber boots
and various guards) have not been re-
moved or damaged.INTERIORS
From time to time check that water
has not collected under the mats
(from dripping shoes, umbrellas, etc.)
which could cause the steel to rust. Detergents pollute wa-
ter. The vehicle must
therefore be washed in an
area equipped for the collection
and purification of the liquids
used while washing.
Never use flammable
products (petroleum
ether or petrol) to clean
the inside of the vehicle. Electro-
static charges generated by rub-
bing while cleaning could cause
fires.
