tremely low: if it needs

topping up after travelling

only a short while, have the sys-

tem checked for leaks at a Fiat

Dealership.

The level of the fluid in the reservoir

must not exceed the MAX mark.

If you need to add fluid, only use the

type classified DOT 4. You are advised

in particular to use TUTELA TOP 4

with which the braking system was

originally filled.

BRAKE FLUID fig. 6

From time to time check the instru-

ment panel warning light by pressing

the reservoir cover (with the ignition

key at MAR): instrument warning pan-

el light x should come on.

On versions fitted with ABS, the

brake fluid reservoir is positioned as

shown in fig. 6; while on versions

without ABS, the reservoir is posi-

tioned lengthwise.

Make sure the highly

corrosive brake fluid does

not drip onto the paint-

work. If it does, wash it off im-

mediately with water.

Make sure the power steer-

ing fluid does not come in-

to contact with the hot parts of the

engine as is catches fire very easi-

ly.
