IMPORTANT The presence of water in the fuel circuit

the engine misfire. If the warning light
c turns on,
contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to have
the bleeding operation carried out.

BATTERY
Fiat Multipla battery is of the “Limited maintenance”
type: under normal conditions of use it does not
require topping up with distilled water.
CHECKING THE BATTERY FLUID LEVEL

Check the electrolyte level (and top up if required) at
the intervals shown in the Service Schedule in this
section. Have this operation carried out at Fiat
Dealership.
Batteries contain substances that are very harmful for the environment. You are advised to have
the battery changed at a Fiat Dealership, which is properly equipped for disposing of used batteries
respecting nature and law.
The liquid in the battery is poisonous and corrosive. Avoid contact with eyes and
skin. Do not bring naked flames or possible sources of sparks near to the battery:
risk of fire and explosion.
