(2) The maximum mileage is 120,000 km. The belt must be replaced every 6 years, regardless of distance travelled. If the vehicle is used in heavy conditions (dusty
areas, cold climates, urban driving, long periods of idling), the maximum mileage is 60,000 km. The belt must be replaced every 4 years regardless of the
mileage.
(3) Level check must be carried out every year for vehicles running in countries with particularly severe climates (cold countries).
(4) The actual interval for changing engine oil and replacing the engine oil filter depends on the vehicle usage conditions and is signalled by the warning light or
message in the instrument panel. In any case, it must never exceed 2 years.
(5) Where the car is used mostly in urban settings you need to replace the engine oil filter every year.

ENGINE OIL
148)59) 60)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.
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
149)61)
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
150) 151)
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
152) 153)62)
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 control oil level should
only be checked at a Fiat Dealership.BATTERY
154) 155) 156) 157)5)63)
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 has been
disconnected, the steering must be
initialised. The
warning light on the
instrument panel turns 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.
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.
CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
In winter, the climate control system
must be turned on at least once a
month for about 10 minutes. Before
summer, have the system checked at a
Fiat Dealership.

SERVICING AND CARE

In the event of extended inactivity the
display will show the average of the
indices until that moment (the "Average
index"), then the indices will be
coloured again in real time as soon as
the vehicle is restarted.
To check the data average of previous
route (the "route" starts when the
ignition key is turned to MAR and stops
when it is turned to STOP), select the
"Previous route" button.
The details of the previous trip can also
be displayed by pressing the "Details"
button to show trip duration (time
and mileage) and average speed.
Trip data storage and transfer
The trip data can be stored in
the system memory and transferred
through a properly configured USB
memory stick or by theUconnect™
LIVE App.
This allows you to display the history of
the collected data, showing the
complete analysis of the trip data and
of your driving style.
For further information visit the
www.driveuconnect.eu websiteIMPORTANT Do not remove the USB
memory stick nor unpair the
smartphone and theUconnect™ LIVE
App before the system has
downloaded the data, since these
could be lost. During the transfer of
data to the devices,Uconnect™
messages may appear on the display
to guide the user correctly through
the operation; follow these instructions.
These messages are only displayed
with the ignition key at STOP and when
a delay in theUconnect™system
switching off is set. The data are
automatically transferred to the devices
when the engine is switched off.
Transferred data will be deleted from
the system memory in this manner. You
can choose to store the trip data or
not, by pressing the "Settings" button
and by setting the storage activation
and the USB or Cloud transfer mode.
When the USB memory stick is full, the
dedicated messages are shown on
theUconnect™system display.
When theeco:Drive™data have not
been transferred to the USB key for
a while, theUconnect™system
internal memory could become
saturated: in this case, follow the
recommendations provided by the
messages on the display.my:Car
my:Car allows you to keep the
"condition" of your car always under
control. my:Car application can detect
faults in real time and inform the driver
on impending service deadlines.
To interact with the application, press
"my:Car" button: a screen will appear
on the display showing the "care:Index"
section which contains detailed
information on car status. Press the
"Active warnings" button to show the
details of any faults on the car which
caused a warning light to switch on.
The car status can be seen both on
www.driveuconnect.eu or through the
Uconnect™ LIVEApp.
