How to Unscrew the Radiator Cap on a Fiat Panda

Model: Fiat Panda 169, MK 2 - Years 2003-2012

In this brief guide, I will illustrate some simple tips for unscrewing the radiator cap on a Fiat Panda. After this, you can easily check the fluid level and subsequently top up with water or, even better, the appropriate coolant for cars. The task is extremely easy, but first, ensure safety with some simple precautions: park the vehicle in a safe location and engage the handbrake. The engine must not have been turned off recently. Open the bonnet using the lever inside the cabin. A second lever is located under the metal of the bonnet itself. Now you can unscrew the cap covering the radiator.
