Filling transmission
Add fluid through fitting (shown in box) using splashproof funnel.
Use only Oliofiat TUTELA CVT.
If the automatic transmission is subject to heavy use: e.g. taxi service, towing trailers etc., it is advisable to replace the fluid and internal filter every 20,000 km.
CHECKING FLUID LEVEL IN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
Check transmission fluid level using dipstick, with engine idling, vehicle on level surface and with selector lever set to "P" or "N".
References on the two faces of the dipstick indicate minimum and maximum oil levels with the following indications:
COOL for cool checks (20° - 40°C)
HOT for hot checks (60° - 80°C)
Use only lint-free cloths to wipe the dipstick to prevent the hydraulic transmission valves from becoming clogged.
