2. Exhausted engine oil
(only Multijet versions with DPF)
The warning light will turn on flashing together with the
message on the display (for versions/markets where
provided). Depending on the versions, the warning light
flashing modes are as follows:
– one minute every two hours;
– for three minute cycles with the warning light off for
intervals of five seconds until oil is changed.
After the first indication, at each engine start up the
warning light will continue flashing as above described
until the oil is changed. For versions/markets where
provided, the display shows a dedicated message
together with the warning light.
If the warning light flashes, this does not mean that the
vehicle is defective, but simply informs the driver that it
is now necessary to change the oil as a result of regular
vehicle use.
Remember that the deterioration of the engine oil is
accelerated by:
– mainly town use of the vehicle which makes the DPF
regeneration process more frequent;
– use of the vehicle for short trips, preventing the
engine from reaching operating temperature;
– repeated interruption of the regeneration process,
signalled by the DPF warning light coming on. LOW BATTERY CHARGE (red)
The warning light comes on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR-ON, but it should go
out as soon as the engine has started (with the
engine running at idle speed a brief delay before going
out is acceptable).
If the warning light stays on constantly or keeps flashing:
contact immediately Fiat Dealership.

INJECTION SYSTEM FAILURE
(amber)
In normal conditions, when the ignition key is
moved to MAR-ON, the warning light turns on
and should go off after engine start-up.
The warning light staying on or turning on when
travelling, signals a fault in the supply/ignition system
which could cause possible lack of performance, poor
handling and high consumption levels.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.
Under these conditions, you may continue travelling at
moderate speed without demanding excessive effort
from the engine. Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.

versions with the message on the display),
contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to
have the system bled. If the same message is
displayed immediately after refuelling, water may
have entered the tank: turn the engine off
immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.

VEHICLE PROTECTION SYSTEM
FAILURE – FIAT CODE
(amber)
Turning the key to MAR-ON the warning light
will flash only once and then go off.
When the warning light comes on constantly, with key
in MAR-ON, this indicates:
❒a potential fault (refer to “The Fiat CODE system”
paragraph in the section “Dashboard and controls”);
❒a possible theft attempt with an alarm; in this case
the warning light goes off after approximately
10 seconds.
If with the engine running the warning light
Yflashes,
the vehicle is not protected by the engine inhibitor
device (see “Fiat Code system” in section “Dashboard
and controls”).
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have all the keys
reprogrammed.

(for versions/markets, where provided)
HILL HOLDER FAILURE (amber)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
When the key is turned to the MAR-ON position the

ESP-ASR system failure
If the warning light does not go off or stays on together
with the LED on the ASR button when travelling,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
On certain versions the dedicated message is displayed.
N.B. The warning light flashing when driving indicates
that the ESP system has been activated.

DPF (PARTICULATE FILTER)
CLEANING IN PROGRESS
(amber)
(only Multijet versions with DPF)
When the key is turned to the MAR-ON position the
warning light comes on but should go out after a few
seconds.
The warning light turns on constantly when the DPF
system needs to eliminate the trapped pollutants
through the regeneration process.
The warning light does not come on every time the
DPF is being regenerated, rather only when the driving
conditions are such that the driver needs to know it.
The warning light will go off if the vehicle stays in
motion until regeneration has been completed. As an
average, the process lasts fifteen minutes.
Optimum conditions for completing the process are
achieved by travelling at 60 km/h with engine revs
above 2000 rpm.
If this warning light comes on, it does not mean the
vehicle is defective, so there is no need to take it to
a garage.
For versions/markets where provided, the display
shows the dedicated message and the warning light
comes on.
hAlways drive at a speed appropriate to the
traffic conditions, the weather and speed
limits. The engine can also be switched off if the
DPF warning light is on; nevertheless, repeated
interruptions of the regeneration process could
cause an early decay of engine oil. For this reason,
always wait until the warning light switches off
before stopping the engine as described above.
It is not advisable to complete DPF regeneration
with the vehicle stationary.
