Step 1: Open the Bonnet

  1. Open the passenger side door.

  2. Locate the bonnet release lever on the side of the dashboard.

  3. Give the lever a gentle pull.

  4. Walk to the front of the vehicle and feel under the bonnet panel for the safety release lever (just above the Fiat logo).

  5. Pull the lever to release the bonnet.

  6. Lift the bonnet and secure it using the bonnet rod—unclip it and slot it into place on the bonnet lid.


Step 2: Check Coolant Level

  1. Locate the coolant reservoir on the left side of the engine bay.

  2. It’s a clear container filled with red or green liquid.

  3. Make sure the coolant level is between the MIN and MAX lines.


Step 3: Inspect Engine Hoses

  1. Visually check hoses for loose connections or visible damage.

  2. Carefully wiggle each hose side to side to ensure it’s secure.

  3. Important: Only do this when the engine is cool—do not touch hot hoses.


Step 4: Check Vehicle Info from the Dashboard

  1. Sit inside the vehicle and use the arrow buttons on the steering wheel to navigate the dash screen.

  2. Scroll left or right to access the “Vehicle Info” submenu.

  3. Use the up and down arrows to view:

  4. Oil Temperature

  5. Oil Level

  6. Oil Life

  7. AdBlue Level

  8. Take a clear photo of each screen.
