Injection system failure
Under normal conditions, when the igni-
tion key is moved to MAR, the warning
light turns on and should go off after en-
gine start-up.
If the warning light stays on or turns on
when travelling, a fault in the supply/igni-
tion system has occurred, which could
cause high emissions at the exhaust, pos-
sible lack of performance, poor handling
and high fuel consumption levels.
On certain versions the dedicated mes-
sage is displayed.
In these conditions, the vehicle can con-
tinue travelling at moderate speed with-
out demanding excessive effort from the
engine. Go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible. SEAT BELTS

steadily when the vehicle is not running

hicle is running and the front seat belts are
not correctly fastened.
The buzzer of the S.B.R. (Seat Belt Re-
minder) system can only be switched off
by a Fiat Dealership.
On some versions the system can be re-
activated from the setup menu.INCOMPLETE
DOOR LOCKING (red)

on when one or more doors or the tail-
gate are not properly shut.
On certain versions the dedicated mes-
sage is displayed.
