Engine Oil; Brake Fluid; Engine Cooling System Fluid; Windscreen/Rear Window Washer Fluid - Fiat 500 Hybrid 2020 Owner's Handbook Manual

ENGINE OIL

Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with
the vehicle parked on level ground.
The engine oil level dipstick (E) is
integral with the cap (B). Unscrew the
cap, clean the dipstick with a lint-free
cloth, reinsert the dipstick and screw
the cap back on.
Extract the engine oil dipstick again
and check that the level is between the
MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick.
If the level of the oil is close to or even
below the MIN mark, add oil through
the filler fitting (B) until the MAX mark is
reached.
The range between the MIN and MAX
marks corresponds to about 1 litre of
oil.
The oil level must never exceed the
MAX mark.
Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption
is usually 400 grams every 1000 km.
When the car is new, the engine needs
to be run in; therefore the engine oil
consumption can only be considered
stabilised after the first 5000 -
6000 km.
WARNING The oil consumption
depends on driving style and the
conditions under which the car is used.

WARNING 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 COOLING
SYSTEM FLUID
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 reservoir
cap (C) (see previous pages) and add
the fluid described in the chapter
"Technical Specifications".

WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WASHER FLUID
Check fluid level through the reservoir.
If the liquid is too low, lift reservoir
cap (D) (see previous pages) and add
the fluid described in the chapter
"Technical Specifications".
After topping up, close cap (D), making
sure it is correctly locked.

BRAKE FLUID

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 reservoir is
too low, undo reservoir cap (E) (see
the previous pages) and add the
fluid described in the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
NOTE Carefully clean the cap 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.
WARNING 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 on the "Service
Schedule".
