2014 FIAT PANDA window

PARAFLU
UP
anti-freeze is used in the
engine cooling system. Use the same fluid
as in the cooling system when topping
up. PARAFLU
UP
cannot be mixed with any other
type of fluid. If this happens, do not start the
engine and contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
The cooling system is pressurised. If
necessary, only replace the cap with
another genuine one or the operation of the
system may be adversely affected. Do not
remove the reservoir cap when the engine is
hot : you risk scalding yourself.
WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW WASHING
FLUID
If the level is too low, raise reservoir cap D (see
previous pages) and add the fluid described in the
chapter "Technical Specifications".
WARNING
Do not travel if the windscreen washer
reservoir is empty: using the windscreen
washer is essential for improving visibility. Some
commercial windscreen washer additives are
flammable.The engine compartment contains
hot components which may set it on fire.BRAKE FLUID
Check that the liquid is at the maximum level (the
fluid level in the reservoir must not exceed the MAX
mark). If the fluid level in the tank is too low, undo
reservoir cap E (see previous pages) and add the fluid
described in the chapter "Technical Specifications".
NoteCarefully clean the cap of the reservoir E and
the surrounding surface.
When opening the cap, make sure that no dirt gets
into the reservoir.
For topping-up, always use a funnel with integrated
filter with mesh equal to or lower than 0.12 mm.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid is hygroscopic (i.e. it
absorbs moisture). For this reason, if the car is
mainly used in areas with a high degree of
atmospheric humidity, the fluid should be replaced at
more frequent intervals than specified in the
“Scheduled Servicing Plan”.
Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.

WARNING
The road holding qualities of the car
also depend on the correct inflation
pressure of the tyres.
WARNING
If tyre pressure is too low, it may
overheat and be severely damaged as a
result .
WARNING
Do not switch tyres from the right­hand
side of the vehicle to the left­hand
side, and vice versa.
WARNING
Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C.The mechanical
properties of the wheels could be impaired.
WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW
WIPERBLADES
Replace the blades if the rubber edge is deformed or
worn. In any event, it is advisable to replace them
approximately once a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce the possibility
of damage to the blades:
❒if the temperature falls below zero, make sure that
ice has not frozen the rubber against the glass. Use
an antifreeze product to release it if required;
❒remove any snow from the glass: in addition to
protecting the blades, this prevents effort on
the motor and over-heating;
❒do not operate the windscreen/rear window
wipers on dry glass.
WARNING
Driving with worn windscreen/rear
window wiper blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in bad weather.

Replacing the wiper blades
Proceed as follows:
❒raise the wiper arm, press tab A fig. 155 of the
attachment spring and remove the blade from
the arm;
❒fit the new blade, inserting the tab into the special
slot in the arm, making sure that it is locked;
❒lower the windscreen wiper arm on the
windscreen.
Do not operate the windscreen wiper with
the blades lifted from the windscreen.Replacing the rear window wiper blade
Proceed as follows:
❒raise cover A fig. 156, undo nut B and remove arm
C;
❒correctly position the new arm, fully tighten nut B
then lower cover A.
SPRAY NOZZLES
Windscreen washer
The windscreen washer jets A fig. 157 can be
adjusted rotating the side notch with a screwdriver
B. If there is no jet of fluid, firstly check that there is
fluid in the reservoir (see "Checking fluid levels" in
this chapter).
Then check that the nozzle holes are not clogged;
use a needle to unblock them if necessary.

IMPORTANT In versions with a sun roof, make sure
that the sun roof is closed before operating the
window washer jets.
Rear window washer
The rear window washer jets are fixed. The nozzle
holder is on the rear window fig. 158.
BODYWORKPROTECTION AGAINST ATMOSPHERIC
AGENTS
The car is equipped with the best available
technological solutions to protect the bodywork
against corrosion.
These are the most important:
❒painting products and systems which give the car
particular resistance to corrosion and abrasion;
❒use of galvanised (or pretreated) steel sheets, with
high resistance to corrosion;
❒spraying of plastic parts, with a protective function
in the more exposed points: underdoor, inner
wing, edges, etc;
❒use of “open” boxed sections to prevent
condensation and pockets of moisture from
triggering rust inside.

Avoid parking under trees as much as possible; the
resin from trees dulls the paintwork and increases
the possibility of corrosion.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off
immediately and thoroughly as the acid they contain
is particularly aggressive.
Detergents pollute the environment . Only
wash your car in areas equipped to collect
and treat wastewater from this type of
activity.In order to preserve the aesthetic
appearance of the paint abrasive products
and/or polishes should not be used for
cleaning the car.
Windows
Use specific detergents and clean cloths to prevent
scratching or altering the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window inside gently
with a cloth in the direction of the filaments to avoid
damaging the heating device.
Front headlights
Use a soft, damp cloth soaked in water and
detergent for washing cars.
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.
petrol) or ketones (e.g. acetone) for cleaning the
plastic lenses of the front headlights.Engine compartment
At the end of every winter, wash the engine
compartment thoroughly, taking care not to aim the
jet of water directly at the electronic control units or
at the windscreen wiper motors. Have this
operation performed at a specialised workshop.
IMPORTANT The washing should take place with the
engine cold and the ignition key in the STOP
position. After the washing operation, make sure
that the various protections (e.g. rubber caps and
guards) have not been removed or damaged.
