Let's see in this video how to check the levels on a Fiat Ducato 3.9 MultiJet. We will need engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, and windshield fluid. This operation should be done with the engine cold: let's start with the engine oil: we remove the dipstick from its housing, clean it with some absorbent paper, put it back in place and then check: if it is below the "Max" mark, we top up the oil, checking the level frequently.

Check the coolant level: if it is below the maximum level, fill it up with fluid of the same color as the one in the reservoir. Move on to the brake fluid, which theoretically does not get consumed.

If it is below the maximum level, it means that the pads or discs are wearing out, carefully top up the missing fluid, planning a visit to the mechanic for a brake check. Finally, add windshield fluid to the appropriate reservoir; do not just add water, which could be hard and damage the front glass.
