Unscrew cap 1 fig. 273;
restore the level (the approximate
amount to get between the dipstick 2
"min" and "max" levels is about 1.5 and
2 litres, depending on the engine);
wait about 10 seconds to let the oil
flow in the circuit;
check the level with the dipstick 2
fig. 273 (as described above).
Once the operation is done, insert the
dipstick as far as it will go or screw the
cap back on completely.
IMPORTANT To avoid splashing, use a
funnel when topping up/filling up.
IMPORTANT Never exceed the "max"
level and do not forget to put the cap
1 back on and dipstick 2 fig. 273 in
place.

Amount of oil to replace
Always check the oil level with the
dipstick (it must never be below the
MIN level nor above the MAX level).
Engine oil quality
Refer to the “Fluids and lubricants”
paragraph on the “Technical data”
chapter.
IMPORTANT In case of unusual,
repeated drop, see a Fiat Dealership.
BRAKE FLUID
The level is checked with the engine
stopped and on a horizontal surface.
It has to be checked often and in any
case every time there is a minimum
variation in the braking system.
Level 2 fig. 274
Normally the level drops along with the
brake pad wear, but it should not drop
below the warning threshold "MIN".
