2017 FIAT TALENTO brake fluid

SERVICE SCHEDULE
The checks listed in the Scheduled Servicing Plan, after reaching 120,000 km/6 years, must be cyclically repeated starting from
the first interval, thus following the same intervals as before.

Check tyre condition/wear and pressure adjustment, if
necessary; check the quick "Tyre inflation kit" recharge
expiry date/condition (for versions/markets, where
provided)
Check operation of lighting system (headlights, direction
indicators, hazard warning lights, boot, passenger
compartment, glove compartment, instrument panel
warning lights, etc.)
Check and, if necessary, top up fluid levels(1) (2)
Check exhaust emissions/smokiness
Use the diagnosis socket to check supply/engine
management systems operation, emissions and, for
versions/markets, where provided, engine oil degradation
Visually inspect conditions of: exterior bodywork,
underbody protection, pipes and hoses (exhaust, fuel
system, brakes), rubber elements (gaiters, sleeves,
bushes, etc.)
(1) Top up using the fluids indicated in the “Fluids and lubricants” paragraph of the “Technical data” chapter and only after checking that the system is intact.
(2) Consumption of additive for AdBlue (Urea) emissions depends on the condition of use of the vehicle and is indicated by a warning light and message onthe
instrument panel (for versions/markets, where provided).

SERVICING AND CARE

PERIODIC CHECKS
Every1,000km or before long trips
check and, if necessary, top up:
engine coolant level;
brake fluid level;
windscreen washer fluid level;
tyre inflation pressure and condition;
operation of lighting system
(headlights, direction indicators, hazard
warning lights, etc.);
operation of screen washer/wiper
system and positioning/wear of
windscreen/rear window wiper blades.
Every3,000km, check and top up the
engine oil level.
DEMANDING VEHICLE
USE
If the vehicle is mostly used in one of
the following conditions:
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 Service Plan:
check front disc brake pad condition
and wear;
check cleanliness of bonnet and
boot locks, cleanliness and lubrication
of linkage;
visually inspect conditions of: engine,
gearbox, transmission, pipes and hoses
(exhaust/fuel system/brakes) and
rubber elements (gaiters/sleeves/
bushes, etc.);
check battery charge and battery
fluid level (electrolyte);
visually inspect conditions of the
accessory 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
cleaner.
SERVICING
PROCEDURES
The vehicle respects the recycling
criteria and scrapped vehicle
assessment that will become law in
2016.
Therefore, some of the vehicle’s
components are designed with their
ultimate recycling in mind.
These components can easily be
disassembled to be recovered and
reused in the recycling industry.
Moreover, thanks to its advanced
design, its original setup and its modest
fuel consumption, the vehicle complies
with the anti-pollution regulations in
force. We are actively committed to
reducing polluting gases and saving
energy. But the level of polluting gas
emissions and vehicle consumption
also depend on you. Take care to use
and service your vehicle correctly.
Keep in mind that lack of respect for
anti-pollution laws can expose the
vehicle's owner to administrative
sanctions. Moreover, replacing engine,
fuel system and exhaust parts with
other non-original ones voids the
vehicle's compliance with the
anti-pollution regulations.

SERVICING AND CARE

Unscrew cap 1 fig. 266;
restore the level (the approximate
amount to get between the dipstick 2
"min" and "max" levels is about 1.5 and
2 litres, depending on the engine);
wait about 10 seconds to let the oil
flow in the circuit;
check the level with the dipstick 2
fig. 266 (as described above).
Once the operation is done, insert the
dipstick as far as it will go or screw the
cap back on completely.
IMPORTANT To avoid splashing, use a
funnel when topping up/filling up.
IMPORTANT Never exceed the "max"
level and do not forget to put the cap
1 back on and dipstick 2 fig. 266 in
place.

Change engine oil
Contact a Fiat Dealership.Amount of oil to replace
Always check the oil level with the
dipstick (it must never be below the
MIN level nor above the MAX level).
Engine oil quality
Refer to the “Fluids and lubricants”
paragraph on the “Technical data”
chapter.
IMPORTANT In case of unusual,
repeated drop, see a Fiat Dealership.
BRAKE FLUID
The level is checked with the engine
stopped and on a horizontal surface.
It has to be checked often and in any
case every time there is a minimum
variation in the braking system.
Level 2 fig. 267
The level must never drop below the
“MIN” threshold.

Filling
Every operation on the hydraulic circuit
involves replacing the fluid by a specialised
technician. Use an approved fluid only
(taken from a new pack).
Replacement of
Refer to the Scheduled Service Plan (in
this chapter).
IMPORTANT In case of unusual,
repeated drop, see a Fiat Dealership.
COOLANT LIQUID
With the engine off, on a level surface,
the cold level should be between "MIN"
and "MAX" indicated on tank 1 fig. 268.
IMPORTANT In case of unusual,
repeated drop, see a Fiat Dealership.

197)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.
198)The symbol
, on the brake fluid
container indicates if a brake fluid is
synthetic or mineral-based. Use of mineral
type fluids will irreparably damage the
braking system’s special rubber seals.
IMPORTANT
44)In any case, you should not exceed the
maximum filling level: you risk damaging the
engine and catalytic converter. If the
maximum level is exceeded, do not start
the engine: please see a Fiat Dealership.
45)Be careful not to confuse the various
types of fluids while topping up: they are
not compatible with each other! Topping up
with an unsuitable fluid could severely
damage the vehicle.
46)The oil level must never exceed the
MAX. mark.
47)Always top up using engine oil of the
same specifications as that already in the
engine.
48)PARAFLU UP protective anti-freeze is
used in the engine cooling system. Use
fluid of the same type as that contained in
the cooling system for any top-ups.
PARAFLU UP fluid cannot be mixed with
any other type of fluid. If this happens, do
not start the engine under any
circumstances and contact a Fiat
Dealership.49)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
IMPORTANT
5)The used engine oil and the filter that has
been replaced contain substances that are
harmful to the environment. To change the
oil and filters, we advise you to contact a
Fiat Dealership.
FILTERS
Replacement of filtering components
(air filter, passenger compartment filter,
oil filter, etc.) is provided in the vehicle's
Scheduled Service Plan.

up to 1 litre. Over this amount, we recommend completely changing the coolant in the percentages given.
(*) Do not top up or mix with other fluids which have different specifications from the ones described.
(**) When the vehicle is used in particularly harsh weather conditions, we recommend using a 60% mixture of PARAFLU UP and 40% demineralised water.
