VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is essential for
ensuring long vehicle life under the
best conditions.
This is why Fiat has planned a series
of checks and services every 35,000
km.
It is, however, important to
remember that scheduled servicing
does not completely cover all the
requirements of the vehicle: even in
the initial period before 35,000 km,
and then subsequently, between one
service and another, ordinary care is
always required such as routine
checks involving topping up fluid
levels, checking tyre pressures etc.IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
coupons are required by the
Manufacturer.
Failure to comply with the schedule
may invalidate the warranty.
Scheduled Servicing can be carried
out by any Fiat Dealership, at pre-
established times.If during each operation, in addition
to those scheduled, the need arises
for further replacements or repairs,
these may only be carried out with
the explicit agreement of the
Customer. IMPORTANT You are
advised to contact a Fiat Dealership
in the event of any minor operating
faults, without waiting for the next
service coupon.
If the vehicle is used frequently for
towing, the interval between
scheduled servicing must be
reduced.

REPLACING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with
an original spare part with the same
specifications.
If a battery with different
specifications is fitted, the service
intervals given in the “Scheduled
Servicing Plan” will no longer be
valid.
Follow the battery manufacturer’s
instructions for maintenance.
Battery liquid is
poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with
skin and eyes. Keep naked
flames and sources of sparks
away from the battery: risk of
explosion and fire.
WARNING
Using the battery with
insufficient battery fluid
may irreparably damage the
battery and may cause an
explosion.
WARNING
When performing any
operation on the
battery or near it, always
protect your eyes with special
goggles.
WARNING
Incorrect assembly of
electrical and electronic
devices may cause
severe damage to your vehicle.
Contact a Fiat Dealership if you
want to install accessories after
purchasing the vehicle (alarms,
radiophone, etc.): they will
suggest the most suitable
devices and advise you whether
a higher capacity battery needs
to be installed.
If the vehicle will be
unused for an extended
period of time in
extremely cold weather
conditions, remove the battery
and store it in a heated area to
prevent it from freezing.
Batteries contain
substances which are very
dangerous for the
environment. To replace your
battery, we recommend
contacting a Fiat Dealership to
dispose of your old battery in full
respect of the environment and in
compliance with legal regulations.
