ENGINE OIL
60)
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with
the vehicle parked on level ground.
For the 1.2 8V 69HP and 1.3 16V
Multijet versions
Take out the engine oil dipstick B, 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.
The range between the MIN. and MAX.
marks corresponds to about 1 litre of
oil.
If the oil level is near or under the MIN
line, add oil through the filler A until
it reaches the MAX line.
For 0.9 TwinAir versions
The engine oil dipstick A is integral with
cap A. Loosen the cap, clean the
dipstick with a cloth that does not leave
traces, reinsert the dipstick and
re-tighten the cap. Unscrew the plug
again and check that the engine oil level
is between the MIN and MAX marks
on the dipstick.Engine oil consumption
61)5)
The maximum engine oil consumption
is usually 400 grams every 1000 km.
When the car is new, the engine needs
to run in, therefore the engine oil
consumption can only be considered
stabilised after the first 5,000 - 6,000
km.
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 COOLANT FLUID
154)62)
The coolant level must be checked
when the engine is cold and must
range between the MIN and MAX
marks on the reservoir.
If the level is too low, undo the reservoir
plug C (see previous pages) and add
the fluid as described in the chapter
"Technical Specifications".
WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WASHING FLUID
155)
If the level is too low, raise reservoir cap
D (see previous pages) and add the
fluid described in the chapter "Technical
Specifications".BRAKE FLUID
156) 157)63)
Check that the fluid is at the maximum
level (the fluid level in the reservoir
must not exceed the MAX mark). If the
fluid level in the tank is too low, undo
reservoir cap E (see previous pages)
and add the fluid described in the
chapter "Technical Specifications".
NOTE Carefully clean the plug of the
reservoir E and the surrounding surface.
Take great care to ensure that
impurities do not enter the reservoir
when the cap is opened.
Always use a funnel with a built-in filter
with a mesh of 0.12 mm or less.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid is hygroscopic
(i.e. it absorbs moisture). For this
reason, if the car is mainly used in areas
with a high degree of atmospheric
humidity, the fluid must be replaced at
more frequent intervals than specified in
the "Scheduled Servicing Plan".
