Never return the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” posi-
tion and remove the ignition key
while the vehicle is moving. The steer-
ing wheel will lock and you will not be
able to steer the vehicle.
Always return the ignition switch to
the “LOCK” position and remove the
ignition key when leaving the vehicle
even if a short time. Also do not leave
children alone in a parked vehicle.
Unattended children could cause ac-
cidental movement of the vehicle or
could tamper with power windows or
power sunroof. They also could suf-
fer from heat stroke in warm or hot
weather. These could result in severe
injury or even death.
WARNING
IMPORTANT
❒Do not use the starter motor for more
than 15 seconds at a time. For diesel
engine model, do not use the starter
motor for more than 30 seconds at a
time. If the engine does not start, wait
15 seconds before trying again. If the
engine does not start after several at-
tempts, check the fuel and ignition sys-
tems or consult your Fiat Dealership.
❒Do not leave the ignition switch in the
“ON” position if the engine is not run-
ning as the battery will discharge. You can also turn the ignition switch by
inserting the ignition key into the slot.
The ignition switch cap (1) is installed to
make the ignition switch turn easily.
If you use the ignition key to turn the ig-
nition switch, remove the cap (1) by pinch-
ing both side of the cap and pull it out.
NOTE If you remove the cap, be careful
not to lose it.
Ignition key reminder
(When using the ignition key)
A buzzer sounds intermittently to remind
you to remove the ignition key if it is in
the ignition switch when the driver’s door
is opened.

FUEL FILLER CAP
The fuel filler cap is located on the left rear
side of the vehicle. The fuel filler lid can be
unlocked by pulling up the opener lever lo-
cated on the outboard side of the driver’s
seat and locked by simply closing the lid.
GEARSHIFT LEVER
Your vehicle is equipped with either a
manual transaxle or automatic transaxle.
The gearshift lever for each transaxle type
is shown in the illustrations. For details on
how to use the transaxle, refer to “Using
the Transaxle” in the “OPERATING
YOUR VEHICLE” section.

Remove the fuel filler cap
slowly. The fuel may be un-
der pressure and may spray out, caus-
ing injury.
WARNING
Gasoline is extremely flam-
mable. Do not smoke when
refueling, and make sure there are no
open flames or sparks in the area.
WARNING
Manual transaxle: to change
gears properly you must
push the clutch pedal fully down. It is
therefore essential that there is noth-
ing under the pedals: make sure the
mats are lying flat and do not get in
the way of the pedals.
WARNING
IMPORTANT Do not drive with your
hand resting on the gear lever as the force
exerted, even if slight, could lead over time
to premature wear on the gearbox inter-
nal components.

If you need to replace the fu-
el cap, use a genuine Fiat cap
or its equivalent. Use of an improper
cap can result in a malfunction of the
fuel system or emission control system.
It may also result in fuel leakage in the
event of an accident.

TRAILER TOWING
Your Fiat was originally designed to car-
ry people and a normal amount of cargo,
not to tow a trailer. Fiat does not rec-
ommend you use your vehicle to tow a
trailer if there is not any local regulation
about towing capacity permitted (for ex-
ample, registered or statutory towing ca-
pacity). Towing a trailer can adversely af-
fect handling, durability, and fuel economy.
Some countries have regulations which
specifically allow trailer towing up to a
specified maximum trailer weight (regis-
tered or statutory towing capacity,
whichever is smaller); vehicles sold in
these countries can be used to tow a light
trailer, provided the trailer does not ex-
ceed the maximum trailer weight specified
in the country’s regulations.
If you use your Fiat to tow a trailer, you
should always observe the requirements
and recommendations in this section. If
you intend to tow a trailer, it is essential
to select a trailer and trailer towing equip-
ment which are compatible. A reputable
towing specialist can help you.
VEHICLE LOADING
Your vehicle was designed for specific
weight capacities. The weight capacities of
your vehicle are indicated by the Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and the
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR, front
and rear). The GVWR and GAWR (front
and rear) are listed in the “SPECIFICA-
TIONS” section.
GVWR – Maximum permissible overall
weight of the fully loaded vehicle (includ-
ing all the occupants, accessories and car-
go plus the trailer nose weight if towing
a trailer).
GAWR – (Front and Rear) Maximum per-
missible weight on an individual axle.
Actual weight of the loaded vehicle and ac-
tual loads at the front and rear axles can
only be determined by weighing the vehi-
cle. Compare these weights to the GVWR
and GAWR (front and rear). If the gross
vehicle weight or the load on either axle
exceeds these ratings, you must remove
enough weight to bring the load down to
the rated capacity.Never overload your vehicle.
The gross vehicle weight
(sum of the weights of the vehicle, all
the occupants, accessories, cargo plus
trailer nose weight if towing a trailer)
must never exceed the Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating (GVWR). In addition,
never distribute a load so that the
weight on either the front or rear axle
exceeds the Gross Axle Weight Rat-
ing (GAWR).
WARNING
Always distribute cargo
evenly. To avoid personal in-
jury or damage to your vehicle, al-
ways secure cargo to prevent it from
shifting if the vehicle moves sudden-
ly. Place heavier objects on the floor
and as far forward in the cargo area
as possible. Never pile cargo higher
than the top of the seat backs.
