2010 FIAT QUBO engine oil

ENGINE OIL
Engine oil check
Check the oil level a few minutes (about 5) after the
engine has stopped, with the vehicle parked on
level ground.
Take out the dipstick A fig. 168, clean it and then
fully reinsert it; take it out and check that the level is
between the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick.
The interval between MIN and MAX corresponds to
about 1 litre of oil.
Topping up the engine oil
If the oil level is near or even under the MIN line,
add oil through the filler B fig. 168 to reach the MAX
line.
The oil level should never exceed the MAX line.IMPORTANT If the engine oil level after the check is
over the MAX level, go to a Fiat Dealership to
have the correct level restored.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing the oil, let the
engine turn over for a few seconds and wait a few
minutes after turning it off before you check the
level.
Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption is usually 400
grams every 1000 km.
When the vehicle is new, the engine needs to be run
in, therefore the engine oil consumption can only
be considered stabilised after the first 5,000 - 6,000
km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption depends on
driving style and the conditions under which the
vehicle is used.
IMPORTANT Always top up using engine oil of the
same types as that already in the engine.
WARNING
Be very careful working in the engine
c
ompartment when the engine is hot :
you may get burned. Remember that the fan
may start up if the engine is hot : this could
injure you. Make sure that scarves, ties and
other loose fitting garments do not get caught
up in moving parts.

The used engine oil and the filter that has
been replaced contain substances that
are dangerous to the environment . For oil
and filter changing, we recommend contacting a
Fiat Dealership.
ENGINE COOLANT FLUID
The coolant level should be checked when the
engine is cold and should be between the MIN and
MAX lines on the vessel.
If the level is low, pour into the vessel through cap A
fig. 169 a 50% mixture of demineralised water and
PETRONAS LUBRICANTS PARAFLU
UP.
The mixture of 50% PARAFLU
UPand 50% distilled
water protects against freezing down to
temperatures of -35°C. For particularly harsh climate
conditions, we recommended using a mixture of
60% PARAFLU
UPand 40% distilled water.
WARNING
Do not remove the tank cap when the
en
gine is very hot as there is a risk
of scalding.The cooling system is pressurised. If
the cap needs replacing, do so with another
original or the effectiveness of the system may
be compromised.
PARAFLUUPantifreeze is used in the
engine cooling system. Use fluid of the
same type contained in the cooling system
for top-ups. PARAFLU
UPshould not be mixed
with any other type of fluid. If this happens, do
not start the engine; contact a Fiat Dealership.

IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs moisture. For this
reason, if the vehicle is mainly used in areas with a
high degree of atmospheric humidity, the fluid should
be replaced at more frequent intervals than specified
in the “Schedule Servicing Plan”.
Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts.Wash with water
immediately if this should happen.
WARNING
Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
c
orrosive. In the event of accidental
contact , wash the parts immediately with water
and mild soap, then rinse with plenty of water.
Call a doctor immediately if swallowed.
WARNING
Symbolon the contain indicates a
synthetic brake fluid, which is different
from a mineral fluid. Using a mineral-type fluid
will damage the special rubber seals of the
braking system beyond repair.POWER STEERING FLUID
Loose the cap A fig. 172: check that the fluid in the
reservoir is included between the MIN and MAX
on the reservoir.
The level may go over the MAX line when the oil is
hot. If topping up is required, make sure the oil
you use has the same specifications as that already in
the system.
WARNING
Prevent power steering fluid from
c
oming into contact with hot engine
parts: it is flammable.
