WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
GENERAL WARNINGS
Lighting of a warning light is associated to
a specific message and/or buzzer when ap-
plicable. These indications are brief and
precautionaryand as such must not be
considered as exhaustive and/or alterna-
tive to the information contained in the
Owner’s Handbook, which you are rec-
ommended to read carefully in all cases.
Always refer to the information in
this chapter in the event of a failure
indication.
IMPORTANT Failure indications on the
display fall into either of two categories:
seriousfailure and less seriousfailure.
Seriousfailures indicate a “cycle” of
warning messages that stay on until the
cause of the failure is eliminated.
Less seriousfailures are indicated by a
limited warning “cycle”.
Press MODEto stop the warning cycle in
both cases. The warning light on the in-
strument panel will stay on until the cause
of the failure is eliminated.LOW BRAKE FLUID
LEVEL (red)
HANDBRAKE ON (red)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR
the warning light turns on and should go
off after a few seconds.
Low brake fluid level
The warning light turns on when the lev-
el of the brake fluid in the reservoir falls
below the minimum level due to possible
leaks in the circuit.
The display will show the dedicated mes-
sage.
x

The warning light turns on when the hand-
brake is on.
On certain versions, if the car is moving

when travelling, check that the handbrake
is not engaged.
AIRBAG
FAILURE (red)

moved to MAR, the warning
light turns on and should go off after a few
seconds.

is a failure in the airbag system.

sage.

(together with the message on the dis-
play on certain versions) stop the en-
gine immediately and contact a Fiat
