fluid type as that already in
the cooling system when topping up.

any other type of fluid. Should it hap-
pen, under no circumstances start the

the cap only with another genuine
one, otherwise system efficiency
could be compromised. Do not re-
move the reservoir cap when the en-
gine is hot: you risk scalding yourself.

tain harmful substances for
the environment. Contact Fi-
at Dealership to have the oil
