IMPORTANT After adding or changing the oil, let
the engine run for a few seconds and wait a few
minutes after switching it off before checking
the level.
Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption is
approximately 400 grams every 1,000 km.
During the initial period of usage for the vehicle,
the engine is bedding in, therefore the engine
oil consumption may settle down only after the first
5,000 - 6,000 km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption depends on
driving style and the conditions under which the car
is used.
IMPORTANT Do not add oil with specifications
other than those of the oil already in the engine.
WARNING
When the engine is hot , take care when
working inside the engine compartment
to avoid burns. 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.Used engine oil and oil filters contain
substances which are harmful to the
environment .To change the oil and
filters, we advise you to contact a Fiat
Dealership.
ENGINE COOLANT
The coolant level must be checked when the engine
is cold and must be above the MIN mark on the
reservoir, see fig. fig. 207-fig. 208
If the level is low, slowly pour a mixture of 50%
demineralised water and 50% PARAFLU
UP
by
PETRONAS LUBRICANTS through cap A.
The mixture of 50% PARAFLU
UP
and 50%
demineralised water protects against freezing down
to temperatures of -35°C.
For particularly harsh climate conditions, we
recommended using a mixture of 60% PARAFLU
UP
and 40% demineralised water.
