BRAKE FLUID
Undo the cap E fig. 207 - fig. 208 -
fig. 209 - fig. 210 - fig. 211 - fig.
212: check that the fluid contained
in the reservoir is at the maximum
level.
The fluid level in the reservoir must
not exceed the MAX mark.
Use the brake fluid shown in the
"Fluids and lubricants" table (see
"Technical Specifications").
NB Carefully clean the reservoir cap
E and surrounding surfaces.
Take great care to ensure that
impurities do not enter the reservoir
when the cap is opened.
For topping-up, always use a funnel
with integrated filter with mesh
equal to or lower than 0.12 mm.IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs
moisture. For this reason, if the
vehicle 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”.

FLUID
Check that the oil level with the
vehicle on flat ground and the
engine cold is between the MIN and
MAX marks on the reservoir body
G fig. 207 - fig. 208 - fig. 209 -
fig. 210 - fig. 211 - fig. 212.
The level may exceed the MAX mark
when the oil is hot.
If topping up is required, make sure
the oil you use has the same
specifications as that already in the
system.

WARNING
126) Never smoke while working in
the engine compartment: gas
and flammable vapours may be
present, with the risk of fire.
127) When the engine is hot, take
care when working inside the
engine compartment to avoid
burns. Remember that when the
engine is hot, the fan may
operate: danger of injury. Scarves,
ties and other loose clothing may
be pulled by moving parts.
128) The cooling system is
pressurised. If necessary, only
replace the cap with another
original one or the operation of
the system may be adversely
affected. Do not remove the cap
from the reservoir when the
engine is hot: danger of scalding.

IMPORTANT
36) The presence of water in the
supply circuit may cause severe
damage to the injection system
and irregular engine operation. If
the
warning light comes on,
go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the system bled.
If this problem is indicated
immediately after refuelling, water
may have entered the fuel tank.
In this case, immediately turn off
the engine and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
BATTERY
The battery is of the “limited
maintenance” type: under normal
conditions of use, the electrolyte
does not need topping up with
distilled water.
It does, however, need to be
checked periodically at a Fiat
Dealership or by specialist personnel
to make sure it is working correctly.
133) 134)
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.

IMPORTANT
37) Incorrect assembly of electrical
and electronic devices may cause
severe damage to your vehicle.
Contact a Fiat Dealership if you
want to install accessories
(alarms, radiophone, etc.): they
will suggest the most suitable
devices and advise you if a higher
capacity battery needs to be
installed.
38) If the vehicle needs to be off the
road for a long period under
conditions of intense cold, remove
the battery and take it to a
heated location, otherwise it may
freeze.
IMPORTANT
5) Batteries contain substances
which are very dangerous for the
environment. To replace your
battery, we recommend
contacting your Fiat Dealership to
dispose of your old battery in full
respect of the environment and in
compliance with all applicable
laws and regulations.
BATTERY
RECHARGING
IMPORTANT The battery recharging
procedure is given as information
only. This operation should be
performed at a Fiat Dealership.
Charging should be slow at a low
ampere rating for approximately 24
hours. Charging for a long time
may damage the battery.
To recharge, proceed as follows:
IN THE ABSENCE OF
THE START&STOP
SYSTEM
❒disconnect the terminal from the
negative battery pole;
❒connect the charger cables to the
battery terminals, observing the
poles;
❒turn on the charger;
❒when you have finished, turn the
charger off before disconnecting
it from the battery;
❒reconnect the negative battery
terminal.

WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WIPER
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
BLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part
using special products; TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is
recommended.
Replace the blades if the rubber
edge is deformed or worn. In any
case, 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 a
de-icing 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
overheating;
❒do not operate the windscreen and
rear window wipers on dry glass.
138)
Replacing the
windscreen wiper
blades fig. 215
Proceed as follows:
❒lift up the windscreen wiper arm;
❒push retaining device A and, at the
same time, slide the blade from the
arm by pushing it in the direction
shown in the diagram.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

The tyres must be replaced when
the tread is less than 1.6 mm thick.
In any case, follow the laws in force
in the country you are in.
IMPORTANT
❒As far as possible, avoid sharp
braking, screech starts and violent
shocks against pavements, potholes
or other hard obstacles. Driving for
long stretches over bumpy roads can
damage the tyres;
❒periodically check that the tyres have
no cuts in the side wall, abnormal
swelling or irregular tyre wear.
Contact a Fiat Dealership if required;
❒avoid overloading the vehicle when
travelling: this may cause serious
damage to the wheels and tyres;
❒if a tyre is punctured, stop
immediately and change it to avoid
damage to the tyre, the rim,
suspensions and steering system;
❒tyres age even if they are not used
much. Cracks in the tread and on
the side walls are a sign of ageing.
Have the tyres checked by
specialised personnel if they have
been fitted for longer than 6 years.
Remember to check the spare wheel
very carefully;❒in the case of replacement, always fit
new tyres, avoiding those of
unknown origin;
❒If a tyre is changed, also change the
inflation valve;
❒to allow even wear between the front
and rear tyres, it is advisable to
change them over every 10-15
thousand kilometres, keeping them
on the same side of the vehicle so as
not to reverse the direction of
rotation.
139) 140) 141) 142)
WARNING
139) Remember that the road
holding qualities of your vehicle
also depend on the correct
inflation pressure of the tyres.
140) If tyre pressure is too low, the
tire may overheat and be severely
damaged as a result.
141) Do not switch tyres from the
right­hand side of the vehicle to
the left­hand side, and vice versa.142) Never submit alloy rims to
repainting treatments requiring
the use of temperatures
exceeding 150°C. The mechanical
properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
