USEFUL ADVICE FOR
EXTENDING THE LIFE OF
YOUR BATTERY
To avoid draining your battery
rapidily and maintain its efficiency
over time, carefully observe the
following instructions:
– when you park the vehicle, ensure
that the doors, tailgate and bonnet
are closed properly, to prevent
any roof lights from remaining on
inside the passenger
compartment;
– switch off all roof lights inside the
vehicle: the vehicle is however
equipped with a system which
switches all internal lights off
automatically;
– do not keep accessories (e.g. car
radio, hazard warning lights, etc.)
switched on for a long time when
the engine is not running;
– before performing any operation
on the electrical system,
disconnect the negative battery
cable;– fully tighten the battery terminals.
IMPORTANT If the battery remains
with the charge below 50% for a
long time it becomes damaged
through sulphation and its starting
capacity is reduced.
The battery is also more prone to
the risk of freezing (at temperatures
as high as -10°C).
Refer to the paragraph “Vehicle
inactivity” in the “Correct use of the
vehicle” section if the vehicle is left
parked for a long time.If, after buying the vehicle, you want
to install electrical accessories which
require permanent electric supply
(alarm, etc.) or accessories that in
any case burden the electrical
supply, contact a Fiat Dealership,
whose qualified personnel, in
addition to suggesting the most
suitable devices from Lineaccessori
Fiat, will evaluate the overall
electrical consumption, checking
whether the vehicle’s electrical
system is capable of withstanding the
load required, or whether it should
be integrated with a more powerful
battery.
Since some of these devices
continue to consume electricity even
when the engine is off, they gradually
run down the battery.

Never use flammable
products, such as
petroleum ether or modified
petrol, to clean the inside of
the vehicle.
The electrostatic charges which
are generated by rubbing
during the cleaning operation
may cause a fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol
cans in the vehicle: they
might explode.
Aerosol cans must not be
exposed to temperatures
above 50°C. Temperatures
may greatly exceed this value
inside a vehicle exposed to
direct sunlight.
WARNINGFront headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic
substances (e.g. petrol) or ketenes
(e.g. acetone) for cleaning the plastic
lenses of the front headlights.INTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not
trapped under the mats (due to
water dripping off shoes, umbrellas,
etc.) which could cause oxidisation
of the sheet metal.
SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a
vacuum cleaner. It is advisable to use
a moist brush on velvet upholstery.
Rub the seats with a sponge
moistened with a solution of water
and neutral detergent.
