2010 FIAT LINEA RHD brake fluid

WINDSCREEN WIPER
BLADES
Period ically clean the rub ber part with
suitable products.
Replace the blades if the rubber edge is
deformed or worn. In all cas es, it is ad-
visable to replace them approximately
once a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce the
possibility of damage to the blades:
make sure that the rubber part is not
stuck to the windscreen at sub-zero
temperatures. Use an antifreeze prod-
uct to release it if required.
remove the snow from the window:
this will avoid overstressing the elec-
trical motor in addition to protecting
the blades;
do not operate the windscreen wipers
on dry glass.
Driving with worn wiper
blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.
WARNING
RUBBER HOSES
Carefully follow the information contained
in the “Service schedule” in this section
for maintenance of brake system and fuel
feed rubber hoses.
Ozone, high temperatures and prolonged
lack of fluid in the system may cause hard-
ening and cracking of the hoses, with pos-
sible leaks. Careful inspections are there-
fore necessary.Excessively low pressure will
cause overheating of the
tyre and may cause severe tyre dam-
age.
WARNING
Do not exchange the tyres
from the left to the right of
the car and vice versa.
WARNING
Do not repaint alloy wheel
rims at temperatures higher
than 150°C. The mechanical features
of the wheels could be compromised.
