CAR MAINTENANCE
197
Do not let the power
steering fluid come into
contact with hot engine
parts. It catches fire very easily.
The brake fluid is poiso-
nous and very corrosive.
In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the
affected parts with water and
mild soap and rinse under run-
ning water. Immediately call a
doctor if the fluid is swallowed.
Oil consumption is ex-
tremely low. If the oil lev-
el needs topping up again
in a short period of time, have the
system checked for leakage at a
Fiat Dealership.
Make sure that the high-
ly corrosive brake fluid
does not trip onto the
paintwork. If it does, wash it off
immediately with water.
BRAKE AND HYDRAULIC
CLUTCH FLUID fig. 10
Remove cap A and check that the
fluid in the reservoir is at the maxi-
mum level.
The symbol π on the
container indicates syn-
thetic brake fluid distin-
guishing it from mineral fluid. Us-
ing mineral type fluid would dam-
age the special rubber braking
system gaskets beyond repair.
