Adequate care of your vehicle at regular
intervals serves to preserve the value
and appearance as long as possible.
Maintenance items as described in this
owner's manual can be performed by
the owner.
We recommend you to have the
periodic inspection and maintenance
performed by a Fiat dealership.
In the event a malfunction or a problem
is discovered, we recommend you to
have it checked and repaired. This
section contains information on
inspection maintenance procedures
that you can do yourself. Follow the
instructions and cautions for each of
the various procedures.
WARNING
346) When checking or servicing the inside
of the engine compartment, make sure the
engine is switched off and has had a
chance to cool down.
347) If it is necessary to do work in the
engine compartment with the engine
running, be especially careful that your
clothing, hair, etc., does not become
caught by the cooling fan, drive belts, or
other moving parts.

348) After performing the maintenance
work, make sure that no tools or cloths are
left behind in the engine compartment. If
they are left behind, a fire or damage to the
vehicle may occur.
349) The cooling fan can turn on
automatically even if the engine is not
running. Turn the ignition switch to "LOCK"
position or put the operation mode in OFF
to be safe while you work in the engine
compartment.
350) Do not smoke, cause sparks or allow
open flames around fuel or battery. The
fumes are flammable.

around the battery. It contains poisonous
and corrosive sulphuric acid.
352) Do not get under your vehicle with
just the body jack supporting it. Always use
automotive jack stands.

and materials used in the vehicle can
endanger your personal safety. We
recommend you to consult a specialist for
necessary information.
