mediately.

(for Diesel Engine Model)

64J244If the light comes on when driving, there
is a possibility to have water in the fuel
filter. Drain water as soon as possible. For
details of draining water, refer to “Fuel Fil-
ter” in the “INSPECTION AND MAIN-
TENANCE” section.
IMPORTANT The presence of water in
the fuel circuit may cause serious damage
to the entire injection system and cause
irregular engine operation. If the warning
light turns on contact Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible to have the system re-
lieved. If the above indications come on
immediately after refuelling, water has
probably been poured into the tank: turn
the engine off immediately and contact Fi-
at Dealership.If the light comes on when driving, the
diesel particulate filter is nearly clogged.
To regenerate the diesel particulate filter,
we recommend that you drive the vehicle
until the light goes out, at an average speed
of 50 km/h (31 mph) for about 5 minutes.
When the regeneration of the diesel par-
ticulate filter is completed by your driving,
this warning light will go out.
For details, refer to “Diesel Particulate Fil-
ter” in the “OPERATING YOUR VEHI-
CLE” section.
