ENGINE OIL
Check the oil level a few minutes (about five) after
the engine has stopped, with the vehicle parked
on level ground.
For 1.2 8V 69 HP and 1.3 16V MultiJet
versionsfig. 152 fig. 153
Remove the engine oil dipstick B, clean it with a
cloth that does not leave any trace and reinsert it.
Extract the engine oil dipstick again and check that
the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the
dipstick.
The range between the MIN and MAX marks
corresponds to about 1 litre of oil.
If the oil level is near or under the MIN mark, add oil
through the filler A until it reaches the MAX mark.
The oil level should never exceed the MAX
mark.
For 0.9 TwinAir 65 HP fig. 150 and 0.9 TwinAir
85 HP versions fig. 151
The engine oil dipstick B is integral with plug A.
Loosen the plug, clean the dipstick with a cloth that
does not leave traces, reinsert the dipstick and
re-tighten the plug. Extract the plug again and check
that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks
on the dipstick.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 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.
Do not add oil with characteristics that
are different from those of the oil
currently in the engine.Used engine oil and filter contain harmful
substances for the environment .To change
the oil and filters, we advise you to
contact a Fiat Dealership.
ENGINE COOLANT FLUID
The coolant level must be checked when the engine
is cold and must be between the MIN and MAX
marks on the reservoir.
If the level is too low, undo reservoir cap C (see
previous pages) and add the fluid described in the
chapter "Technical Specifications".
