2018 FIAT 500L transmission fluid

DEMANDING USE OF THE
CAR
If the vehicle is used in one of the
following conditions:
law enforcement (or security
service), taxi service;
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
Service Schedule:
check front disc brake pad condition
and wear;
check cleanliness of bonnet and
luggage compartment 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.

ENGINE OIL
152)70) 71)3)
Check that the oil level is between the
MIN and MAX references on the
dipstick A. If the oil level is near or even
under the MIN mark, add oil using the
filler B to reach the MAX mark.
Take out the engine oil dipstick A, clean
it with a lint-free cloth and reinsert it.
Extract the engine oil dipstick again and
check that the level is between the
MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick.
0.9 TwinAirTurbo versions only
Unscrew the cap, clean the dipstick
with a lint-free cloth, reinsert the
dipstick and screw the cap back on.
Unscrew the cap again and check that
the engine oil level is between the
MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick.
NOTE On 0.9 TwinAirTurbo versions, if
the instrument panel display shows
the message warning that the engine oil
needs to be topped up to the MAX
level, after topping up to the MAX level
the instrument panel Setup Menu
must be used to confirm that this has
been done (see “Display” section of
“Knowing your instrument panel”
chapter).Engine oil consumption: the
maximum engine oil consumption is
usually 400 grams every 1000 km.
During the initial period of use the
engine oil consumption conditions
should be considered as having
stabilised after the first 5000 - 6000
km.
ENGINE COOLANT FLUID
153)72)
If the level is too low, unscrew the cap
of reservoir C and add the fluid
described in the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WASHER FLUID
154) 155)
If the level is too low, lift reservoir cap D
and add the fluid described in the
"Technical Specifications" chapter.
IMPORTANT The headlight washer
system will not operate when the fluid
level is low, even though the
windscreen/rear window washer
continues to operate. On some
versions there is a reference notch on
the dipstick: ONLY the windscreen/rear
window washer operates with the
level below this reference.BRAKE FLUID
156) 157)73)
Check that the fluid is at the max. level.
If the fluid level in the reservoir is too
low, undo reservoir cap E and add the
fluid described in the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
DUALOGIC
TRANSMISSION FLUID
4)
The transmission fluid level should only
be checked at a Fiat Dealership.
BATTERY
158) 159) 160) 161)5)74)
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.
IMPORTANT After the battery is
disconnected, the steering must be
initialised. The
warning light on the
instrument panel switches on to
indicate this. To carry out this
procedure turn the steering wheel all
the way from one end to the other
or drive in a straight line for about a
hundred metres.
