AIR CLEANER/
POLLEN FILTER
Have the air cleaner or the pollen filter re-
placed by a Fiat Dealership.
BATTERY
The vehicle fits a low-maintenance battery:
no top-ups with distilled water are need-
ed in normal conditions of use.
A periodic check is however required to
make sure that the battery is in efficient
conditions. Have it performed by the Fiat
Dealership or skilled personnel only. REPLACING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a gen-
uine spare battery having the same speci-
fications.
If a battery with different specifications is
fitted, the service intervals given in the
“Scheduled servicing plan” in this section
will no longer be valid.
Follow the battery manufacturer’s in-
structions for maintenance.
The battery fluid is poiso-
nous and corrosive. Avoid
contact with the skin and eyes. Keep
naked flames and sources of sparks
away from the battery: risk of explo-
sion and fire.
WARNING
Running the battery with an
excessively low liquid level
will damage the battery beyond re-
pair and even cause an explosion.
WARNING
Incorrect assembly of electric
and electronic devices may
cause severe damage to your
vehicle. Go to a Fiat Dealer-
ship if, after buying the vehicle, you
want to install accessories (alarms, mo-
bile phone, etc.): they will suggest the
most suitable devices and advise you
if a higher capacity battery needs to be
installed.

RUBBER HOSES
As far as the brake system and fuel rubber
hoses are concerned, carefully follow the
instructions provided in the “Scheduled
servicing plan” in this section.
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.Remember that road holding
also depends on the correct
tyre inflation pressure.
WARNING
If the pressure is too low the
tyre overheats and this can
cause serious damage.
WARNING
Do not cross switch the
tyres, moving them from the
right of the vehicle to the left and
vice versa.
WARNING
Never submit alloy rims to
repainting treatments re-
quiring the use of temperatures ex-
ceeding 150°C. The mechanical prop-
erties of the wheels could be im-
paired.

SPECIFICATIONS
For diesel engines, in emergency cases where genuine products are not available, lubricants with min. performance ACEA C2
are accepted. If this is the case, the best engine performance is not guaranteed. We however recommend replacing the lubri-
cant with those recommended by Fiat Dealership.
The use of products with features lower than ACEA A1/B1 and ACEA C2 could cause engine damage which is not covered by
warranty.
If the vehicle is used in particularly cold climates, ask your Fiat Dealership for the right PETRONAS LUBRICANTSproduct.
