Fluid type
Use brake fluid conforming to DOT3 or
DOT4. The brake fluid is hygroscopic.
Too much moisture in the brake fluid will
adversely affect the brake system,
reducing the brake performance.
In addition, the brake fluid reservoir is
equipped with a special cap to prevent
the entrance of air, and this cap should
not be removed.

WARNING
365)Prevent power steering fluid from
coming into contact with hot engine parts:
it is flammable.
366)Some commercial windscreen washer
additives are flammable. The engine
compartment contains hot parts which
could start a fire on contact.
367)Do not travel with the windscreen
washer reservoir empty: the windscreen
washer is essential for improving visibility.
368)The cooling system is pressurised. If
necessary, only replace the plug with
another original one or the operation of the
system may be adversely affected. Do not
remove the reservoir plug when the engine
is hot: risk of burns.
369)Take care in handling brake fluid as it
is harmful to the eyes, may irritate your skin
and also damage to painted surfaces.370)Use only the specified brake fluid. Do
not mix or add different brand of brake fluid
to prevent chemical reaction. Do not let
any petroleum-based fluid touch, mix with,
or get into the brake fluid. This will damage
the seals.
371)Clean the filler cap before removing
and close the cap securely after
maintenance.
372)Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
corrosive. In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the affected
parts with water and mild soap. Then rinse
thoroughly. Call a doctor immediately if
swallowed.
IMPORTANT
185)Keep the reservoir tank cap closed to
prevent the brake fluid from deteriorating
except maintenance.
186)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
187)The symbol
, on the brake fluid
container indicates if a brake fluid is
synthetic or mineral-based. Use of mineral
type fluids will damage the special rubber
seals of the braking system beyond repair.
CLUTCH FLUID
To check the fluid level
The clutch fluid in the master cylinder
should be checked when performing
other underhood service. In addition,
the system should be checked for
leakage at the same time.
Check to make certain that the clutch
fluid level is always between the “MAX”
and “MIN” level markings on the fluid
reservoir.
A rapid fluid loss indicates a leak in the
clutch system which should be
immediately inspected by a Fiat
Dealership.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
Polishing
The vehicle should only be polished if
the paintwork has become stained or
lost its lustre. Do not polish parts with a
mat coating and the plastic bumpers.
Doing so could cause stains or damage
the finish.
Cleaning plastic parts
Use a sponge or chamois leather. If a
car wax adheres on a grey or black
rough surface of the bumper, moulding
or lamps, the surface becomes white.
In such a case, wipe it off using
lukewarm water and soft cloth or
chamois leather.
208) 209)
Chrome parts
In order to prevent spots and corrosion
of chrome parts, wash with water, dry
thoroughly, and apply a special
protective coating. This should be done
more frequently in winter.
Aluminium wheels (if so equipped)
Remove dirt using a sponge while
sprinkling water on the wheel.Use
neutral detergent on any dirt that
cannot be removed easily with
water. Rinse off the neutral
detergent after washing the
wheel.Dry the wheel thoroughly
using a chamois leather or a soft
cloth.
210) 211) 212) 213)
Window glass
The window glass can normally be
cleaned using only a sponge and water.
Glass cleaner can be used to remove
oil, grease, insect carcasses, etc. After
washing the glass, wipe it dry with a
clean, dry, soft cloth. Never use a cloth
that is used for cleaning a painted
surface to clean a window. Wax from
the painted surface could get on the
glass and lower glass transparency and
visibility.
NOTE To clean the inside of the rear
window, always use a soft cloth and
wipe the window glass along the
demister heater element so as not to
cause damage.
NOTE Do not use pure windscreen
washer fluid for cleaning the front
windscreen and rear screen; dilute it by
at least 50% in water.
Wiper blades
Use a soft cloth and glass cleaner to
remove grease, insect carcasses, etc.,
from the wiper blades. Replace the
wiper blades when they no longer wipe
properly.
Engine compartment
Clean the engine compartment at the
beginning and end of winter. Pay
particular attention to flanges, crevices
and peripheral parts where dust
containing road chemicals and other
corrosive materials might collect.If salt and other chemicals are used on
the roads in your area, clean the engine
compartment at least every three
months.
Never spray or splash water on the
electrical components in the engine
compartment, as this may cause
damage.
Do not bring the nearby parts, the
plastic parts and so on into contact
with sulphuric acid (battery electrolyte)
which may crack, stain or discolour
them.
If they are in contact, wipe off with soft
cloth, chamois or the like and an
aqueous solution of neutral detergent
then immediately rinse the affected
parts with plenty of water.
Versions with tonneau cover
Hand washing is recommended for the
tonneau cover; modern automatic
washing systems equipped with soft
brushes which do not apply excessive
pressure with specific products may be
used.
Never use high-pressure washing
systems. If a water jet is used, direct
away from the edges of the fabric and
the rear window to prevent water
infiltration.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
Versions with stickers or wrapping
To correctly clean and wash the stickers
and/or wrapping parts, proceed as
follows:
Avoid washing with rollers and/or
brushes in washing stations. Then,
wash the vehicle, only by hand, using
pH-neutral detergents; dry it with a wet
chamois leather. Abrasive products
and/or polishes should not be used for
cleaning the vehicle.
If high pressure jets or cleaners are
used to wash the vehicle, hold at least
40 cm away from the bodywork to
avoid damage or alteration. It should be
remembered that the build up of water
can damage the car over a period of
time.
Wash the bodywork using a low
pressure jet of water.
Use a sponge to wipe a slightly
soapy solution over the bodywork,
frequently rinsing the sponge.
Rinse with plenty of water and dry
with a jet of air or a chamois leather. Dry
the less visible parts with special care,
such as the door frames, bonnet and
the headlight frames, where water may
stagnate more easily. The car should
not be taken to a closed area
immediately, but left outside so that
residual water can evaporate.
Do not wash the car after it has been
parked in the sun.
Exterior plastic parts must be
cleaned in the same way as the rest of
the vehicle.
Where possible, do not park under
trees: the resinous substances that
many species release give the paint a
dull appearance and increase the
possibility of triggering rusting
processes.
NOTE Any stains (caused by water) on
the stickers or wrapping can be
removed by dampening the area again
and drying it with a soft, nonabrasive
cloth.
NOTE Bird droppings must be washed
off immediately and thoroughly as the
acid they contain is particularly
aggressive.
NOTE Avoid (if at all possible) parking
the car under trees; remove vegetable
resins immediately as, when dried, it
may only be possible to remove them
with abrasive products and/or polishes,
which is highly inadvisable as they
could alter the paint, the stickers or the
wrapping.
IMPORTANT
199)Avoid washing with rollers and/or
brushes in washing stations. Wash the
vehicle only by hand using neutral pH
detergents; dry it with a wet chamois
leather. Abrasive products and/or polishes
should not be used for cleaning the car.
Bird droppings must be washed off
immediately and thoroughly as the acid
they contain is particularly aggressive.
Avoid (if at all possible) parking the vehicle
under trees; remove vegetable resins
immediately as, when dried, it may only be
possible to remove them with abrasive
products and/or polishes, which is highly
inadvisable as they could alter the typical
opaqueness of the paint. Do not use pure
windscreen washer fluid for cleaning the
front windscreen and rear window; dilute it
min. 50% with water. Only use pure screen
washer fluid when strictly necessary due to
outside temperature conditions.
200)When washing the under side of your
vehicle or wheel, be careful not to injure
your hands.
201)If your vehicle has rain sensor wipers,
place the wiper switch lever in the “OFF”
position to deactivate the rain sensor
before washing the vehicle. Otherwise, the
wipers will operate in the presence of water
spray on the windscreen and may get
damaged as a result.
202)Refrain from excessively using a car
wash as its brushes may scratch the paint
surface, causing it to lose its gloss.
Scratches will be especially visible on
darker coloured vehicles.
