HEAVY-DUTY
Should prevailing use of the vehicle be un-
der one of the following specially heavy
conditions:
❒trailer or caravan towing;
❒dusty roads;
❒short distances (less than 7-8 km) re-
peated and with external tempera-
tures below zero;
❒frequently idling engines or long dis-
tance low speed driving (e.g. door-to-
door deliveries) or in case of a long
term inactivity;
❒driving in the city;
carry out the following checks more fre-
quently than required in the Service
Schedule:
❒check front disk brake pad conditions
and wear;
❒check cleanness of locks, bonnet and
boot and lever cleanness and lubrica-
tion;
❒sight inspect the conditions of: engine,
gearbox, transmission, pipes and hoses
(exhaust - fuel - brakes), rubber parts
(boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.);
❒check battery charge and fluid level
(electrolyte);
❒visual check on various drive belt con-
ditions;
❒check and replace pollen filter, if
required;
❒check and replace air cleaner, if
required.
ROUTINE
MAINTENANCE
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys,
check and top up if required:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions;
❒light system operation (headlights, di-
rection indicators, hazard lights, etc.);
❒windscreen wiper/washer operation
and windscreen/rear window blade
position/wear;
Every 3,000 km check and top up if re-
quired: engine oil level.
You are recommended to use PETRO-
NAS LUBRICANTS, products, designed
and produced specifically for Fiat vehicles
(see table “Capacities” in section “Tech-
nical specifications”).

When topping up take care
not to confuse the various
types of fluids: they are all in-
compatible with one anoth-

BRAKE FLUID fig. 11
Unscrew cap Aand check that the fluid
level in the reservoir is at maximum.
Fluid level in the reservoir shall not exceed
the MAXmark.
Use only DOT4fluid for topping up. We
recommend TUTELA TOP 4, which is
the fluid used for first filling.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs mois-
ture, for this reason, if the vehicle is main-
ly used in areas with a high degree of at-
mospheric humidity, the fluid should be
replaced at more frequent intervals than
specified in the “Service schedule”. Check level through the reservoir.
fig. 11
Do not travel with the wind-
screen washer reservoir emp-
ty: the windscreen washer is funda-
mental for improving visibility.
WARNING
Certain commercial addi-
tives for windscreen washers
are inflammable. The engine com-
partment contains hot components
which may set it on fire.
WARNINGWINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW
WASHER FLUID fig. 10
To top up, remove the cap A.
Pour a mixture of water and TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC35, in the follow-
ing concentrations:
30% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL
SC35and 70% water in summer.
50% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL
SC35and 50% water in winter.
In case of temperatures below –20°C, use
undiluted TUTELA PROFESSIONAL

Make sure that the highly
corrosive brake fluid does not
drip onto the paintwork; if it
does, wash it off immediate-
ly with water.
Brake fluid is poisonous and
highly corrosive. In the event
of accidental contact, wash the parts
involved immediately with neutral
soap and water, then rinse thor-
oughly. Call the doctor immediately
if the fluid is swallowed.
WARNING
The symbol πon the con-
tainer indicates synthetic
brake fluid, distinguishing it from the
mineral kind. Using mineral fluids ir-
reversibly damages the special brak-
ing system rubber seals.
WARNING
POWER STEERING FLUID
With the vehicle on level ground, engine not
running and cold, check whether the oil lev-
el in the tank is between the MINand
MAXmarks on the tank fig. 12 and
fig. 13.
If oil is hot the level can also exceed the
MAXmark.
If required, top up with oil having the same
characteristics of the oil present in the sys-
tem.
fig. 12 - 90 Multijet versionsF0P0150mfig. 13 - 120 - 130 -
165 Multijet versionsF0P0151m
Power steering oil consump-
tion is extremely low. If the
fluid level needs topping up
again after a short period of
time, have the system checked for leak-
age at a Fiat Dealership.
Do not allow the power
steering fluid to touch the
hot parts of the engine: it is inflam-
mable.
WARNING
For the van outfitting it is
recommended to replace the
brakes liquid every two years.

WIPERS
BLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part using
special products; TUTELA PROFES-
SIONAL SC 35is recommended.
Change the blades if the rubber edge is
warped or worn out. You should in any case
change them approximately once a year.
A few simple notions can reduce the pos-
sibility of damage to the blades:
❒ if the temperature fall below zero,
make sure that ice has not frozen the
rubber against glass. If necessary, thaw
using an antifreeze product;
❒ remove any snow from the glass: in ad-
dition to protecting the blades, this pre-
vents effort on the motor and over-
heating;
❒do not operate the windscreen wipers
on dry glass.
Driving with worn wiper
blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.
WARNING
RUBBER HOSES
As far as the brake system and fuel rubber
hoses are concerned, carefully follow the
“Service schedule” in this section.
Indeed ozone, high temperatures and pro-
longed lack of fluid in the system may
cause hardening and cracking of the hoses,
with possible leaks. Careful control is
therefore necessary.If the pressure is too low the
tyre overheats and this can
cause it 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 to use temperatures exceed-
ing 150°C since the mechanical prop-
erties of the wheels could be im-
paired.
