AIR CLEANER/
POLLEN FILTER

Have the air cleaner or the pollen filter re-
placed by a Fiat Dealership.

BATTERY

The vehicle fits a low-maintenance battery:
no top-ups with distilled water are need-
ed in normal conditions of use.

A periodic check is however required to
make sure that the battery is in efficient
conditions. Have it performed by the Fiat
Dealership or skilled personnel only.

REPLACING THE BATTERY

If required, replace the battery with a gen-
uine spare battery having the same speci-
fications.

If a battery with different specifications is
fitted, the service intervals given in the
“Scheduled servicing plan” in this section
will no longer be valid.

Follow the battery manufacturer’s in-
structions for maintenance.

The battery fluid is poiso-
nous and corrosive. Avoid

contact with the skin and eyes. Keep
naked flames and sources of sparks
away from the battery: risk of explo-
sion and fire.

WARNING

Running the battery with an
excessively low liquid level

will damage the battery beyond re-
pair and even cause an explosion.

WARNING

Incorrect assembly of electric
and electronic devices may
cause severe damage to your
vehicle. Go to a Fiat Dealer-

ship if, after buying the vehicle, you
want to install accessories (alarms, mo-
bile phone, etc.): they will suggest the
most suitable devices and advise you
if a higher capacity battery needs to be
installed.
