Used batteries should be disposed of, as specified by law, in
the special containers, otherwise take them to a Fiat
Dealership, which will deal with their disposal.

The system uses R1234yf coolant, which is compatible with
the laws in force in the countries where the vehicle is sold.
When charging, only use the gas indicated on the plate in the
engine compartment. The use of other coolants affects the
efficiency and condition of the system. The lubricant used for
the compressor is also strictly linked to the refrigerant gas type,
