Check engine management system operation (via diagnostic socket)
Replace accessory drive belt/s
Replace toothed timing belt (*)
Replace spark plugs (petrol versions) (1)
Replace fuel filter (diesel versions)
Replace air filter cartridge (petrol versions) (❏)
Change engine oil and replace oil filter (petrol versions)
(or every 24 months) (2)
Change engine oil and replace oil filter

(*) Regardless of the distance covered, the timing belt should be replaced every 4 years for particularly demanding use (cold climates, city dri-
ving, idling for a long time, dusty areas) or, in any case, every 5 years.
(❏) For Euro 4 diesel versions, the air filter cartridge should be replaced every 30,000 km.
(Õ) The engine oil and the filter must be replaced when the warning light on the dashboard comes on (see the “Warning lights and messages”
section) or at least every 24 months.
(1)For 1.4 Turbo Multi Air versions, in order to guarantee correct operation and prevent serious damage to
the engine, it is essential to observe the following:
– only use spark plugs specifically certified for 1.4 Turbo Multi Air engines; all spark plugs should be of the
same type and brand (see the “Engine” paragraph);
– adhere strictly to the spark plug replacement intervals detailed in the Scheduled Servicing Plan;
– it is advisable to have this performed at a Fiat Dealership.
(2)If the car is mainly used in towns and cities, change the engine oil and filter every 12 months.
(3)If the car is mainly used in cities or travels less than 10,000 km a year, change the engine oil and filter every 12 months.

BODYWORK
PROTECTION FROM ATMOSPHERIC
AGENTS
The main causes of corrosion are the following:
❒atmospheric pollution;
❒salty air and humidity (coastal areas or hot and humid
climates);
❒seasonal environmental conditions.
The abrasive action of wind-borne atmospheric dust and
sand, as well as mud and gravel raised by other cars is al-
so not to be underestimated.
Fiat used the best manufacturing technologies on your car
to effectively protect the bodywork against corrosion.
These are the most important:
❒painting products and systems which give the car par-
ticular resistance to corrosion and abrasion;
❒use of galvanised (or pre-treated) steel sheets with high
resistance to corrosion;
❒spraying the underbody, engine compartment, wheel-
house internal parts and other elements with highly pro-
tective wax-based products;
❒spraying protective plastic materials in the most exposed
areas: underdoor, inner mudguard parts, edges, etc.;
❒using “open” boxed sections to prevent condensation
and pockets of moisture from triggering rust inside.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below are
determined on the basis of the homologation tests set
down by specific European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring con-
sumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that sim-
ulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: driving that simulates using the ve-
hicle out of town with frequent acceleration in all gears;
the speed varies from 0 to 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: this is calculated with a weight-
ing of about 37% urban cycle consumption and about
63% extra-urban consumption.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations, weath-
er conditions, driving style, general state of the car, trim
level/equipment/accessories, load, climate control system,
roof rack, and other situations that affect how the car
moves through the air may lead to different fuel con-
sumption levels than those measured.
Fuel consumption according to the current European directive (litres x 100 km)
