FAILURE
(where provided)
On certain versions the display will show
a warning message + symbol (amber)
when a failure is detected in the T.P.M.S.
system (Tyre Pressure Monitoring Sys-
tem). Contact Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
Should one or more wheels without sen-
sor be fitted, the display will show a warn-
ing message until initial conditions are re-
stored.
n
Low tyre pressure
The warning light (amber) or symbol on
the display (red) come on if the pressure
of one or more tyres drops below a pre-
set threshold. In this way, the TPMS sys-
tem notifies the driver by indicating that
the tyre/s is dangerously deflated and is
therefore probably punctured.
IMPORTANT Stop immediately with one
or more tyres flat, avoid braking sharply
and abrupt turns. Replace immediately the
punctured tyre with the space-saver spare
wheel (where provided) or repair the
puncture tyre using the proper kit (see
paragraph “If a tyre is punctured” in sec-
tion “In an emergency”) and then contact
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
Check tyre pressure
The warning light (or the symbol on the
display) turns on to indicate that the tyre
pressure is below the recommended val-
ue which ensures the long life of the tyre
and optimum fuel consumption, and/or to
indicate a slow pressure leak.
Should two or more tyre be flat, the dis-
play will show the indications corre-
sponding to each tyre in sequence.
Restore proper inflation pressure values
as soon as possible (see paragraph “Cold
inflation pressures” in section “Technical
Specifications”).Tyre pressure unsuitable for speed
Should it be required to journey at a speed
higher than 160 km/h, inflate tyres at pres-
sures values specified in paragraph “Infla-
tion pressures”.
If the T.P.M.S. system (where provided)
detects that the pressure of one or more
tyres is unsuitable for the current speed,
the warning light will turn on (together
with the message on the display) (see para-
graph “Low tyre pressure” in this section)
and it will stay on until the car speed slow
downs below the preset threshold.
IMPORTANT In this case slow down im-
mediately since tyre overheating could im-
pair tyre performance and life beyond re-
pair, and even make the tyre to blow-out.
Strong radio-frequency nois-
es could inhibit the regular
operation of the T.P.M.S. system.
This condition will be indicated by a
message (where provided). The warn-
ing message will go off automatical-
ly as soon as the radio-frequency
noise will stop to disturb the system.
