2018 FIAT FIORINO oil level

ENGINE OIL
Engine oil level check
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with
the vehicle parked on level ground.
Take out the dipstick 1, clean it and
then reinsert it fully; take it out and
check that the level is between the MIN
and MAX marks on the dipstick. The
interval between MIN and MAX marks
corresponds to about 1 litre of oil.
Topping up the engine oil
If the oil level is close to or below the
MIN mark, add oil via the filler 2 until it
reaches the MAX mark.
The oil level must never exceed the
MAX. mark.
IMPORTANT If the engine oil level after
the check is over the MAX level, go
to a Fiat Dealership to have the correct
level restored.
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 oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption
is usually 400 grams every 1000 km.
When the vehicle is new, the engine
needs to be run in, therefore the engine
oil consumption can only be considered
stabilised after the first 5,000–6,000
km.IMPORTANT The oil consumption
depends on driving style and the
conditions under which the vehicle is
used.
IMPORTANT Always top up using
engine oil of the same specifications as
that already in the engine.

ENGINE COOLANT
The coolant level should be checked
when the engine is cold and should be
between the MIN and MAX lines on
the vessel.
If the level is low, pour a 50% mixture of
demineralised water and PETRONAS
LUBRICANTS PARAFLU
UPinto the
vessel through cap 3.
The mixture of 50% PARAFLU
UPand
50% distilled water protects against
freezing down to temperatures of
-35°C. For particularly harsh climate
conditions, we recommended using a
mixture of 60% PARAFLU
UPand 40%
distilled water.

WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WASHING FLUID
To add fluid, lift the cap 4 and pour in a
mixture of water and PETRONAS
DURANCE SC 35 fluid, in the following
proportions:
30% PETRONAS DURANCE SC 35
and 70% water in summer;
50% PETRONAS DURANCE SC 35
and 50% water in winter.
At temperatures below -20°C, use
undiluted PETRONAS DURANCE SC
35 fluid.
Check fluid level through the reservoir.
136) 137)
BRAKE FLUID
Unscrew the cap 5 and check that the
fluid 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”.
138) 139)
46)
POWER STEERING FLUID
Unscrew the cap 6 and check that the
fluid in the reservoir is between the
MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir.
The level may exceed the MAX mark
when the oil is hot. If topping up is
required, make sure the oil you use has
the same specifications as that already
in the system.

COMFORT-MATIC
TRANSMISSION
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
FLUID
To check the transmission oil level and
to check/change the clutch hydraulic
system fluid, go to a Fiat Dealership.
4)
BATTERY
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 If the charge level remains
under 50% for a long time, the battery
is damaged by sulphation, reducing
its capacity and efficiency at start-up.
141) 142)
Replacing the battery
If required, replace the battery with an
original spare part with the same
specifications.
If a battery with different specifications
is fitted, the service intervals given in
the “Scheduled Servicing Plan” will no
longer be valid.
Follow the battery manufacturer's
instructions for maintenance.

WARNING
133)Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: inflammable gases
and vapours may be present, constituting
a fire risk.
134)Be very careful working in the engine
compartment when the engine is hot:
you may get burned. Remember that the
fan may start up if the engine is hot: this
could injure you. Scarves, ties and other
loose clothing might be pulled by moving
parts.
135)Do not remove the reservoir cap
when the engine is very hot as there is a
risk of scalding. The cooling system is
pressurised. If the cap needs replacing, do
so with another original or the effectiveness
of the system may be compromised.
136)Do not travel if the windscreen washer
reservoir is empty: using the windscreen
washer is essential for improving visibility.
137)Some commercial windscreen washer
additives are flammable. The engine
compartment contains hot parts which
could start a fire if they come into contact.
138)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.
139)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.
