WELCOME FROM FIAT
Congratulations on selecting your new FIAT vehicle. Be assured that it represents precision
workmanship, distinctive styling, and high quality - all essentials that are traditional to our vehicles.
Your new FIAT vehicle has characteristics to enhance the driver's control under some driving
conditions.These are to assist the driver and are never a substitute for attentive driving.They can
never take the driver's place.Always drive carefully.
Your new vehicle has many features for the comfort and convenience of you and your passengers.
Some of these should not be used when driving because they take your eyes from the road or
your attention from driving. Never text while driving or take your eyes more than momentarily off
the road.
This guide illustrates and describes the operation of features and equipment that are either
standard or optional on this vehicle.This guide may also include a description of features and
equipment that are no longer available or were not ordered on this vehicle. Please disregard any
features and equipment described in this guide that are not available on this vehicle. Chrysler
Group LLC reserves the right to make changes in design and specifications and/or make additions
to or improvements to its products without imposing any obligation upon itself to install them on
products previously manufactured.
This User Guide has been prepared to help you quickly become acquainted with the important
features of your vehicle. It contains most things you will need to operate and maintain the vehicle,
including emergency information.
The DVD includes a computer application containing detailed owner's information which can be
viewed on a personal computer or MAC computer.The multimedia DVD also includes videos
which can be played on any standard DVD player (including the Media Center Touch-Screen
Radios).Additional DVD operational information is located on the back of the DVD sleeve.
For complete owner information, refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD in the owner’s kit
provided at the time of new vehicle purchase. For your convenience, the information contained on
the DVD may also be printed and saved for future reference.
We are committed to protecting our environment and natural resources. By converting from
paper to electronic delivery for the majority of the user information for your vehicle, together we
greatly reduce the demand for tree-based products and lessen the stress on our environment.
