2017 FIAT QUBO air filter

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The devices for reducing petrol engine emissions are
the following:
three-way catalytic converter
Lambda sensors
anti-evaporation system.
In addition, do not let the engine run, even for a test,
with one or more spark plugs disconnected.
The following devices are used for reducing diesel
fuel engine emissions:
oxidising catalytic converter
exhaust gas recirculation system (EGR)
diesel particulate filter (DPF) (for versions/
markets, where provided).
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechanical filter,
integral to the exhaust system, that physically traps
carbon particulates present in the exhaust gases
of diesel engines.
It is needed to eliminate almost all particulates in
compliance with current/future legislation. During
normal use of the vehicle, the engine control unit
records a set of data (e.g.: travel time, type of route,
temperatures, etc.) and it will then calculate how
much particulate has been trapped by the filter.Since this filter physically traps particulate, it should
be regenerated (cleaned) at regular intervals by
burning the carbon particles. The regeneration
procedure is controlled automatically by the engine
management control unit according to the filter
conditions and vehicle use conditions.
During regeneration, the following may occur: a
limited increase in the engine speed, activation of the
fan, a limited increase in fumes and high
temperatures at the exhaust.
These are not faults; they do not impair vehicle
performance or damage the environment. If
the dedicated message is displayed, refer to the
“Warning lights and messages” section.

(2) The actual interval for changing the engine oil and replacing the engine oil filter depends on the vehicle usage conditions and is
signalled by the warning light or message (if present) in the instrument panel (see chapter "Warning lights and messages"). In any
case, it must never exceed 24 months. Change engine oil and filter every 12 months if the vehicle is driven mainly in towns.
(3) Areas that are not dusty: recommended maximum mileage 120,000 km. The belt must be replaced every 6 years, regardless of
distance travelled. Dusty areas and/or demanding use of the car (cold climates, town use, long periods of idling): advised maximum
mileage 60,000 km. The belt must be replaced every 4 years, regardless of distance travelled.
(4) If the vehicle runs on fuel with quality below the relevant European specification, this filter must be replaced every 35,000 km
(5) The brake fluid replacement has to be done every two years, irrespective of the mileage.

REGULAR CHECKS
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys, check and, if
necessary, top up the following:
engine coolant level;
brake fluid level;
windscreen washer fluid level;
tyre inflation pressure and condition;
operation of lighting system (headlamps, direction
indicators, hazard warning lights, etc.);
operation of screen wash/wipe system and
positioning/wear of windscreen/rear window
wiper blades.
Check and top up, if required, the engine oil level
every 3,000 km.
HEAVY USAGE OF THE VEHICLE
If the vehicle is used mainly under one of the
following conditions:
towing a trailer or caravan;
dusty roads;
short, repeated journeys (less than 7-8 km) at
sub-zero outside temperatures;
engine often idling or driving long distances at low
speeds or long periods of inactivity;
the following checks must be carried out more often
than indicated in the Scheduled Servicing Plan:
check front disc brake pad condition and wear;
check cleanliness of bonnet and boot locks,
cleanliness and lubrication of linkage;
visually inspect the conditions of: engine, gearbox,
transmission, pipes and hoses (exhaust/fuel
supply/brakes), rubber parts (boots/sleeves/
bushes, etc.);
check battery charge and battery fluid level
(electrolyte);
visually inspect condition of the auxiliary drive
belts;
check and, if necessary, change engine oil and
replace oil filter;
check and, if necessary, replace pollen filter;
check and, if necessary, replace air filter.

BRAKE FLUID
Undo the cap A fig. 186 and check that the liquid
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").
When opening the cap A, 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 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”.Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
WARNING
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.
WARNING
The symbol, on the brake fluid
container indicates if a brake fluid is
synthetic or mineral­based. Use of mineral type
fluids will damage the special rubber seals of
the braking system beyond repair.

AIR CLEANER/ POLLEN FILTER
Have the air cleaner or the pollen filter replaced by 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 regularly at a
Fiat Dealership or by specialist personnel to make
sure it is working properly.
WARNING
The battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin
and eyes. Keep naked flames and sources of
sparks away from the battery: risk of explosion
and fire.
WARNING
Running the battery with an excessively
low liquid level will damage the battery
beyond repair and even cause an explosion.
