INDEXSNOW TYRES
A Fiat Dealership will be happy to provide advice con-
cerning the most suitable type of tyre for the customer’s
requirements.
For the type, pressures and specifications of the snow
tyre to be used, follow carefully the instructions given in
the “Wheels” paragraph of the “Technical specifications”
section.
The winter performance of these tyres is considerably
reduced when the tread thickness is less than 4 mm. If
this is the case, replace them.
Due to their specific features, the performance of snow
tyres is much lower than that of standard tyres in normal
conditions or on long motorway stretches. You should
therefore use them only in the conditions for which they
were designed.
IMPORTANT When using snow tyres with a maximum
speed index below the one that can be reached by the
vehicle (increased by 5%), place a notice in the passenger
compartment, plainly in view, which states the maximum
speed allowed by the snow tyres (as per EC Directive).
All four tyres should be the same (brand and profile) to
ensure greater safety when driving and braking as well as
making the car more responsive.
Remember that you should not change the rotation di-
rection of the tyres.The ABS with which the vehicle may be
equipped will not control the braking sys-
tem of the trailer. Particular caution is therefore
required on slippery roads.
WARNING
Never modify the braking system of the
vehicle to control the trailer brake. The
trailer braking system must be fully independent
from the hydraulic system of the vehicle.

INDEXA specific message is displayed on certain versions.
Under these conditions, the vehicle can continue trav-
elling at moderate speed without demanding exces-
sive effort from the engine. Prolonged use of the ve-
hicle with the warning light on may cause damage. Go
to a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
The warning light goes out after the fault disappears,
but the notification is stored in the system.
❒flashing: this indicates possible damage to the catalytic
converter (see “EOBD system” in the “Dashboard and
controls” section).
If the light flashes, come off the accelerator pedal to
reduce engine revs until the warning light stops flash-
ing; continue the journey at moderate speed, trying
to avoid driving conditions that may cause further flash-
ing, and get to a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible. INJECTION SYSTEM FAILURE

SYSTEM FAILURE
(petrol versions – amber)
Injection system failure
Under normal conditions, turning the ignition key to MAR,
the warning light turns on but it should go off after the
engine starts. If the warning light stays on or comes on
when travelling, it means there is a fault in the injection
system which could cause loss of performance, poor han-
dling and high fuel consumption levels.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
Under these conditions, the vehicle can continue travel-
ling at moderate speed without demanding excessive ef-
fort from the engine. In any case, you should go to a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
EOBD engine management system failure
Under normal conditions, turning the ignition key to MAR,
the warning light turns on but it should go off after the
engine starts.
This indicates that the warning light is working correctly.
If the warning light either stays on or comes on during
your journey:
❒on permanently: this means there is a fault in the sup-
ply/ignition system which could cause high exhaust
emissions, loss of performance, poor handling and high
fuel consumption levels.

Go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as possi-
ble if warning light
Udoes not light up
when the key is turned to MAR or if, while
travelling, the warning light comes on either per-
manently or flashing (along with a message on the
display on certain versions). The operation of the
Uwarning light may be checked by traffic police
using appropriate equipment. Respect the regula-
tions in force in the country where you are driving.

GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
(for versions/markets where provided)
On vehicles with a manual gearbox, the gear shift indica-
tor suggests gear changes to the driver (SHIFT UP or
SHIFT DOWN) via a special display on the control pan-
el. This suggestion to change gear is designed to improve
consumption and ensure the best driving style.
NBThe sign on the instrument panel remains on until
the driver changes gear or until the driving conditions re-
turn to a situation where a gear change is not required
to reduce consumption.

INDEXStrictly avoid using a rapid battery charg-
er for jump starting: this could damage the
system electronics and the ignition and en-
gine supply control units.
This procedure must be performed by ex-
perts because incorrect actions may cause
considerable electrical discharge. Furthermore,
battery fluid is poisonous and corrosive: avoid con-
tact with skin and eyes. Keep naked flames and
lit cigarettes away from the battery. Do not cre-
ate sparks.
WARNING
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by pushing, towing or dri-
ving downhill. This could cause fuel to flow into the cat-
alytic converter and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake booster and the
power steering system are not active until the engine is
started, so you will need to apply much more force to
the brake pedal or steering wheel.
CHANGING A TYRE
The vehicle is originally equipped with the Fix&Go quick
tyre repair kit (see instructions in the next section). As
an alternative, the vehicle may have a normal-sized spare
wheel.
Wheel changing and correct use of the jack and spare
wheel call for some precautions, as listed below.
