SUGGESTIONS FOR
DRIVING
SAVING FUEL
Fuel consumption is approved in
compliance with a standard and
regulated method that is identical for all
manufacturers, allowing vehicles to be
compared with each other. The real fuel
consumption depends on the vehicle's
usage, equipment and driving style.
Depending on the vehicle, you can have
different functions available that let you
reduce your fuel consumption:
gear change indicator;
driving style indicator;
route summary and ecological advice
through a multi-media display panel;
the ECOMODE function that can be
activated by the ECO button.
If the vehicle has one, the navigation
system completes this information.Gear change indicators
Depending on the versions, a warning
light 1 fig. 224 on the instrument panel
tells you the best time to shift up or
down to optimise fuel consumption:
Shift up;
Shift down;
Driving style indicator
This informs you about your adopted
driving style in real time. The result is
shown by the colour of the indicator
light 2 fig. 224.
Green: flexible, economical driving;
Yellow: adopt a flexible style;
Orange: driving too dynamic.
To activate/deactivate the driving style
indicator, refer to the RADIO/TOUCH –
RADIO NAV supplement.Route summary
When the engine is stopped, an
appropriate message appears on the
display 3 fig. 225 with information about
your last route.
It indicates:
average fuel consumption;
mileage;
the number of kilometres saved.

Unscrew cap 1 fig. 274;
restore the level (the approximate
amount to get between the dipstick 2
"min" and "max" levels is about 1.5 and
2 litres, depending on the engine);
wait about 10 seconds to let the oil
flow in the circuit;
check the level with the dipstick 2
fig. 274 (as described above).
Once the operation is done, insert the
dipstick as far as it will go or screw the
cap back on completely.
IMPORTANT To avoid splashing, use a
funnel when topping up/filling up.
IMPORTANT Never exceed the "max"
level and do not forget to put the cap
1 back on and dipstick 2 fig. 274 in
place.

Change engine oil
Contact a Fiat Dealership.Amount of oil to replace
Always check the oil level with the
dipstick (it must never be below the
MIN level nor above the MAX level).
Engine oil quality
Refer to the “Fluids and lubricants”
paragraph on the “Technical data”
chapter.
IMPORTANT In case of unusual,
repeated drop, see a Fiat Dealership.
BRAKE FLUID
The level is checked with the engine
stopped and on a horizontal surface.
It has to be checked often and in any
case every time there is a minimum
variation in the braking system.Level 2 fig. 275
Normally the level drops along with the
brake pad wear, but it should not drop
below the warning threshold "MIN".

45) 49)
Filling
Every operation on the hydraulic circuit
involves replacing the fluid by a
specialised technician.
Use an approved fluid only (taken from
a new pack).
Replacement
Refer to the Scheduled Service Plan (in
this chapter).
IMPORTANT In case of unusual,
repeated drop, see a Fiat Dealership.
COOLANT LIQUID
With the engine off, on a level surface,
the cold level should be between "MIN"
and "MAX" indicated on coolant tank 1
fig. 276.
IMPORTANT In case of unusual,
repeated drop, see a Fiat Dealership.

SERVICING AND CARE

221)For safety reasons, only a specialised
technician should carry out this operation.
Fitting a different type of tyre can alter the
vehicle's compliance with the regulations in
force, cornering performance, steering and
fitting snow chains.
222)For safety and to respect legislation in
force, when replacement is necessary, you
must only fit the same brand, size, type
and structure tyres on the same axles.
They have to have a load and speed
capacity that is at least identical to the
original tyres, or they correspond to those
recommended by a Fiat Dealership. Failure
to observe these instructions can
compromise safety and vehicle
compliance. Risk of losing control of the
vehicle.
223)If the tyres are "unidirectional", do not
switch tyres from the right-hand side of the
vehicle to the left-hand side, and vice
versa. This type of tyres can only be
switched from the front axle to the rear axle
and vice versa, keeping them on the same
side of the vehicle.
224)Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C. The
mechanical properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
IMPORTANT
53)Some driving accidents, such as
"hitting the curbstone" can damage the
tyres and change the front or rear end
adjustments. In that case, have them
checked by a Fiat Dealership.54)Caution, a missing or badly screwed on
valve cap could impact the tyre's grip and
cause a loss of pressure. Always use valve
caps that are identical to the original ones
and make sure that they are screwed on
fully.
55)Snow chains cannot be fitted with 17”
tyres, you must obtain specific equipment
from the Fiat Dealership.
56)Snow chains can only be fit on tyres of
the same dimensions as those originally on
the vehicle.
57)If you want to fit chains, you must
obtain specific ones. Consult a Fiat
Dealership.
58)Keep your speed down when snow
chains are fitted; do not exceed 50 km/h.
Avoid potholes, do not drive over steps or
pavements, and do not drive long
distances over roads without snow, to
avoid damaging both your vehicle and the
road surface.
WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WIPER
WIPER BLADES
IMPORTANT Check the status of the
wiper blades. Their duraton depends on
proper maintenance:
clean both windscreen and rear
window wipers regularly with soapy
water;
do not use them when the
windscreen and rear window are dry;
detach them from the windscreen or
rear window if they have not been used
for a long time.
59) 60) 61)
Replacing wiper blades with the
starter device inserted, engine
stopped:
completely lower the wiper arm;
lift up the wiper arms 1 and 2
