FUEL FILLER CAP fig. 108
Opening
1) Open the flap Apulling it outwards,
keep the cap Bstill, insert the ignition key
in the lock and turn it anti-clockwise.
2) Turn the cap anti-clockwise and extract
it. The cap has a device Cretaining it to the
flap so it cannot be lost. When refilling, at-
tach the cap to the flap, as illustrated.
Closing
1) Fit the cap (complete with key) and turn
it clockwise until it clicks once or more.
2) Turn the key clockwise and extract it,
then close the flap.IMPORTANT The sealing of the tank may
cause light pressurising in the tank. A lit-
tle breathing off, while slackening the cap,
is absolutely normal.
fig. 108F0Q0695m
Keep naked flames or light-
ed cigarettes away from the
fuel filler hole as there is a danger of
fire. Do not bend too close to the hole
either so as not to breathe in harmful
vapours.

GENERIC FAILURE
INDICATION
(amber)
Inertial fuel cut-off switch
intervened
The warning light (or the symbol on dis-
play) comes on when the inertial fuel cut-
off switch is triggered.
The display will show the dedicated mes-
sage.
Engine oil pressure sensor failure
The warning light (or the symbol on the
display) turns on when a fault is detected
to engine oil pressure sensor.
Twilight sensor failure
The warning light (or the symbol on dis-
play) turns on when a fault is detected to
the twilight sensor.
The display will show the dedicated mes-
sage.
Speed limit exceeded
(only for Arabic countries)
The warning light (amber), or symbol on
the display (red), comes on when a speed
of 120 km/h is exceeded.
è
CLEANING DPF
(PARTICULATE
FILTER) IN PROGRESS
(only Multijet versions
with DPF - amber)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR,
the warning light switches on but it must
switch off after a few seconds. The warn-
ing light comes on constantly to notify the
driver that the DPF system needs to elim-
inate captured pollutants (particulate) by
the regeneration process. The warning
light does not come on during every DPF
regeneration, but only when driving con-
ditions require notification of the driver.
To switch the warning light off, the car
must stay in motion until regeneration has
been completed. The process normally
takes about 15 minutes. The optimum con-
ditions to end the process are achieved by
keeping the car in motion up to 60km/h
with an engine speed higher than 2,000
rpm.
This light coming on is not a car defect and
therefore the car does not need to go to
the workshop.
A specific message will appear on the dis-
play when the warning light comes on (for
versions/markets, where provided).
h
Rain sensor failure
The warning light (or the symbol on the
display) on the dial turns on when the rain
sensor is faulty. Contact Fiat Dealership.
The display will show the dedicated mes-
sage.
Parking sensors failure
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light (or the symbol on the
display) when a fault is detected to park-
ing sensors.
Tyre pressure monitoring
system failure
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light (or the symbol on the
display) turns on when a failure is detect-
ed in the T.P.M.S. system (for versions/
markets, where provided).
Should one or more wheels without sen-
sor be fitted, the instrument panel warn-
ing light will come on and stay on until
restoring initial conditions.
The display will show the dedicated mes-
sage.
NOTE When one of the above faults oc-
curs, contact your Fiat Dealership as soon
as possible.

ENGINE STARTING
EMERGENCY START-UP
If the instrument panel warning light
Yturns on glowing steadily, contact im-
mediately Fiat Dealership.
JUMP STARTING
If the battery is flat, it is possible to start
the engine using an auxiliary battery with
the same capacity or a little higher than
the flat one.
Proceed as follows fig. 1:
❒ Connect positive terminals (+ near the
terminal) of the two batteries with a
jump lead;
❒ With a second lead, connect the nega-
tive terminal (–) of the auxiliary battery
and to an earthing point
Eon the en-
gine or the gearbox of the car to be
started;
❒ Start the engine;
❒ When the engine has been started, re-
move the leads reversing the order
above.If after a few attempts the engine does not
start, do not insist but contact the near-
est Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the
negative terminals of the two batteries:
sparks could ignite the flammable gas from
the battery. If the other battery is fitted in
another car, prevent accidental contacts
between the metal parts of the two cars.BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine (by pushing,
towing, or coasting downhill) as this could
cause fuel to flow into the catalytic ex-
haust system and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the servo-
brake and electrical power steering sys-
tem are not operating until the engine is
started, a greater effort will therefore be
required to press the brake pedal or turn
the steering wheel.
fig. 1F0Q0733m
Under no circumstances
should a battery charger be
used to start the engine: it
could damage the electronic
systems and in particular the ignition
and injection control units.
Do not carry out this proce-
dure if you lack experience;
if it is not done correctly it can cause
very intense electrical discharges. In
addition, the fluid contained in the
battery is poisonous and corrosive.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. You
are also advised not to put naked
flames or lighted cigarettes near the
battery and not to cause sparks.

ROUTINE
MAINTENANCE
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys,
check and top up if required:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions;
❒light system operation (headlights, di-
rection indicators, hazard lights, etc.);
❒windscreen wiper/washer operation
and windscreen/rear window blade
position/wear;
Every 3,000 km check and top up if re-
quired: engine oil level.
You are recommended to use PETRONAS
LUBRICANTS, products, designed and
produced specifically for Fiat cars (see table
“Capacities” in section “Technical specifica-
tions”).
HEAVY-DUTY
Should prevailing use of the car be under
one of the following specially heavy con-
ditions:
❒trailer or caravan towing;
❒dusty roads;
❒short distances (less than 7-8 km) re-
peated and with external tempera-
tures below zero;
❒frequently idling engines or long dis-
tance low speed driving (e.g. door-to-
door deliveries) or in case of a long
term inactivity;
❒driving in the city;
carry out the following checks more fre-
quently than required in the Service
Schedule:
❒check front disk brake pad conditions
and wear;
❒check cleanness of locks, bonnet and
boot and lever cleanness and lubrica-
tion;
❒sight inspect the conditions of: engine,
gearbox, transmission, pipes and hoses
(exhaust - fuel - brakes), rubber parts
(boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.);
❒check battery charge and fluid level
(electrolyte) (only to be carried out by
skilled personnel or at Fiat Dealership
- see also paragraph “Battery” in this
section);
❒visual check on various drive belt con-
ditions;
❒check and replace pollen filter, if re-
quired;
❒check and replace air cleaner, if re-
quired.
