to the engine. Make sure it is always at an
adequate level.
87) Always require the use of only
compressor coolants and lubricants
approved and suitable for the specific
air conditioning system fitted on the
car. Some non-approved coolants are
flammable and may explode, with the
risk of injuries. The use of non-approved
coolants or lubricants may adversely affect
system efficiency, leading to expensive
repairs.
88) The air conditioner system contains
coolant under high pressure: to avoid
injuries to people or damage to the
system, any coolant addition or repair that
requires to disconnect the cables must be
carried out by a Fiat Dealership.
89) Vehicles equipped with catalytic
converter must be fuelled only with
unleaded petrol. Leaded petrol would
permanently damage the catalytic
converter and eliminate its ability to
reduce polluting emissions, seriously
compromising the engine performance,
which would be irreparably damaged.
If the engine does not work correctly,
especially if it starts irregularly or if
there is a reduction of its performance,
immediately go to a Fiat Dealership.
Prolonged and faulty operation of the
engine may cause overheating of the
converter and, as a consequence,
possible damage to the converter and the
vehicle.
90) Using transmission fluid different from
that approved may compromise the quality
of gear changes and/or cause vibration of
the transmission.

SAFETY INFORMATION
Before embarking on a long trip, and
approximately every two weeks, check
(see
the tyre inflation pressure, including the
space-saver spare wheel, if provided.
Check the tyres when cold.
It is normal for the pressure to increase
when the vehicle is used due to tyre
heating; for the correct tyre inflation
pressure, see the "Wheels" paragraph
in the "Technical specifications"
chapter.
Incorrect pressure causes abnormal
tyre wear fig. 273:

normal pressure : tread evenly worn;
low pressure : tread particularly worn at
the edges;
