FUEL CUT-OFF
SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Diesel and petrol versions
This intervenes in the case of an impact
causing:
the interruption of the fuel supply
with the engine consequently switching
off;
the automatic unlocking of the
doors;
turning on of the lights inside the
vehicle;
deactivation of climate control
system ventilation;
switching on of the hazard warning
lights (to deactivate the lights press the
button on the dashboard).
On some versions, the intervention of
the system is indicated by a message
shown on the display. In the same way,
a dedicated message on the display
warns the driver if system operation is
compromised.
IMPORTANT Carefully check the vehicle
for fuel leaks, for instance in the engine
compartment, under the vehicle or near
the tank area. After a collision, bring the
ignition device to STOP to prevent the
battery from running down.
LPG versions
(where provided)
On LPG versions, in addition to the
above, the fuel cut-off system stops
petrol supply immediately, closes the
LPG safety solenoid valve and stops
injection, consequently shutting off the
engine.

SERVICING AND CARE

ENGINE OIL
151)
60)
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with
the vehicle parked on level ground.
Check that the oil level is between the
MIN and MAX references on the
dipstick.
If the level of the oil is close to or below
the MIN mark, add oil via the filler fitting
until the MAX mark is reached.
Take out the engine oil dipstick, clean it
with a lint-free cloth and reinsert it.
Extract it again and check that the level
is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the dipstick.
Engine oil consumption
61)
2)
The maximum engine oil consumption
is usually 400 grams every 1000 km.
When the car is new, the engine needs
to be run in; therefore the engine oil
consumption can only be considered
stabilised after the first 5000 - 6000 km.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing
the oil, let the engine turn over for a few
seconds and wait a few minutes after
turning it off before you check the level.ENGINE COOLANT FLUID
62)
152)
If the level is too low, unscrew the cap
of reservoir 4 and add the fluid
described in the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
WINDSCREEN WASHER
FLUID
153) 154)
If the level is too low, raise the reservoir
cap 3 and add the fluid described in the
"Technical Specifications" chapter.
BRAKE FLUID
63)
155) 156)
Check that the fluid is at the max. level.
If the fluid level in the reservoir is too
low, undo the reservoir cap 1 and add
the fluid described in the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
IMPORTANT Carefully clean the cap of
the reservoir and the surrounding
surface. Take great care to ensure that
impurities do not enter the reservoir
when the cap is opened.
For topping-up, always use a funnel
with integrated filter with mesh equal to
or lower than 0.12 mm.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid is hygroscopic
(i.e. it 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".
AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
ACTIVATION SYSTEM OIL
(where provided)
3)
The transmission control oil level should
only be checked at a Fiat Dealership.
BATTERY
157) 158) 159)
64)
4)
The battery does not require the
electrolyte to be topped up with distilled
water.
A periodic check carried out at a Fiat
Dealership is, however, necessary to
check efficiency.
Replacing the battery
If necessary, replace the battery with
another original battery with the same
specifications. Follow the battery
Manufacturer’s instructions for
maintenance.
