2016 FIAT DUCATO DIPSTICK

ENGINE OIL LEVEL
GAUGE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The gauge provides a graphic indication
of the level of oil in the engine.
When the ignition key is turned to
MAR-ON, the display fig. 147 - fig. 148
shows the oil level by lighting up /
switching off five symbols.The gradual switching off of the
symbols indicates a decreasing oil level.
Four or five symbols light up to indicate
a sufficient level of oil in the sump. If
the fifth symbol is not lit, this does not
indicate a fault or that insufficient oil
is present in the sump.
If the oil level is lower than the minimum
required value, the display shows a
dedicated message indicating minimum
engine oil level and the need for a
top-up.
IMPORTANT To find out the correct oil
quantity, always check using the
dipstick (see paragraph “Checking
levels” in the section “Maintenance and
care”).
After a few seconds, the symbol display
indicating the amount of engine oil
disappears and:
❒When the next scheduled servicing
intervention is approaching, the
time to the next service is displayed
and the õ symbol lights up on the
display. When the service date is
reached, the display shows a
dedicated message;❒Later on, if the time for changing the
engine oil is getting close, the
distance until the next oil change will
appear on the display. When the
service interval has expired a
dedicated warning will be shown on
the display.
IMPORTANT
20) If the needle for the engine
coolant temperature reaches the
red area, stop the engine
immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.

ENGINE OIL
48)
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with
the vehicle parked on level ground.
Check the level is within the MIN. and
MAX. marks on the dipstick B fig. 241 -
fig. 242 - fig. 243 - fig. 244.
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
line, add oil through the filler A fig. 241 -
fig. 242 - fig. 243 - fig. 244 until it
reaches the MAX line.
The oil level must never exceed the
MAX mark.
Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption
is usually 400 grams every 1000 km.
When the vehicle is new, the engine
needs to be run in, therefore the engine
oil consumption can only be considered
stabilised after the first 5,000–6,000
km.
IMPORTANT The oil consumption
depends on driving style and the
conditions under which the vehicle is
used.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.
IMPORTANT Always top up using
engine oil of the same specifications as
that already in the engine.
ENGINE COOLANT
49)187)
The coolant level must be checked
when the engine is cold and must
range between the MIN and MAX
marks on the reservoir.
If the level is to low, operate as follows:
❒remove the plastic cover A fig. 245,
rotating the locking screws B fig.
245 counter-clockwise, to access the
filler of the reservoir;
❒slowly pour a mixture of 50%
demineralised water and 50%
PARAFLU
UPfrom PETRONAS
LUBRICANTS through the reservoir
filler C fig. 241 - fig. 242 - fig. 243
- fig. 244 until the level is close to
MAX.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU
UPand
distilled water gives freeze protection
up to –35°C.When the vehicle is used in particularly
harsh weather conditions, we
recommend using a 60-40 mixture of
PARAFLU
UPand demineralised water.
POWER STEERING FLUID
193)
3)
51)
Check that the liquid contained in the
tank is at the maximum level. This
operation must be carried out with the
vehicle level and with the engine off and
cold.
Proceed as follows:
❒remove the plastic cover A fig. 245,
rotating the locking screws B fig.
245 counter-clockwise, to access the
filler of the reservoir;

❒check that the fluid level is up to the
MAX mark on the dipstick attached
to the reservoir cap F fig. 241 -
fig. 242 - fig. 243 - fig. 244 (use the
level shown on the 20°C side of
the dipstick to check when cold).
If the level of the fluid in the tank is
lower than the specified level, top up
using only one of the products
indicated in the "Fluid and lubricants"
table in the "Technical specifications"
section, proceeding as follows:
❒Start the engine and wait for the fluid
level in the tank to stabilise.
❒With the engine running, turn the
steering wheel from right to left
fully several times.
❒Top up the fuel to the MAX level and
then retighten the cap.

WINDOW WASHER FLUID
188) 189)
To add fluid:
❒remove cap D fig. 241 - fig. 242 - fig.
243 - fig. 244, pulling the retaining
tooth outward;
❒pull the opening of the pipe upwards
to remove the telescopic funnel fig.
246.IMPORTANT Before opening the cap,
make sure it is correctly oriented (as
illustrated in fig. 246) to prevent it from
being damaged and interfering with
the adjacent mechanical parts.
Otherwise, turn it until it reaches the
correct position.Fill according to the following
instructions:
Use a mixture of water and TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC 35, in the
following concentrations:
30% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35
and 70% water in summer.
50% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35
and 50% water in winter.
At temperatures below –20°C, use
undiluted TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC
35 fluid.
To close the cap, operate as follows:
❒push the funnel fully until it locks;
❒close the cap.
