remove the reservoir plug when the engine

225) Do not travel with the windscreen
washer fluid reservoir empty: the
windscreen washer is essential for
improving visibility.
226) Some commercial windscreen
washer additives are flammable. The
engine compartment contains hot parts
which could start a fire if they come into
contact.
227) Do not release the cap from the
extension without previously extracting the
system using the ring.
228) 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.
229) 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.

83) Used engine oil and replaced oil filters
contain substances which are harmful to
the environment. To change oil and filters,
we advise you to contact a Fiat Dealership.
84) PARAFLU UP anti-freeze fluid is used in
the cooling system. Use fluid of the same
type as that contained in the cooling
system for topping up. PARAFLU UP fluid
cannot be mixed with any other type
of fluid. If this occurs, do not start the
engine and contact your Fiat Dealership
immediately.
85) Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact
with painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
