2012 FIAT 500 GUCCI check engine light

- Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light
•This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system.
• If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the engine is running. Cycle the ignition
when the vehicle has completely stopped and the shift lever is placed in the PARK position; the
light should turn off.
• If the light remains lit with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable; however, see
an authorized service center immediately. If the light is flashing when the engine is running,
immediate service is required and you may experience reduced performance, an elevated/rough
idle or engine stall and your vehicle may require towing.
- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) OFF Indicator Light
•This light indicates the Electronic Stability Control system (ESC) has been turned off by the
driver.
- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation / Malfunction Indicator
Light
• The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” in the instrument cluster will come on for four
seconds when the ignition switch is turned to the ON/RUN position. If the “ESC
Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” comes on continuously with the engine running, a
malfunction has been detected in the ESC system. If this light remains on, see your authorized
dealer as soon as possible to have the problem diagnosed and corrected.
NOTE:
• The “ESC Off Indicator Light” and the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” come on
momentarily each time the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN.
• Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN, the ESC system will be ON even if it was turned
off previously.
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Light
•Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly, when cold and inflated to
the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)
• As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated.Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should
stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving
on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s
handling and stopping ability.
• IF THE LIGHT STARTS FLASHING INDICATING A LOW TIRE PRESSURE, ADJUST THE
AIR PRESSURE IN THE LOW TIRE TO THE AIR PRESSURE SHOWN ON THE VEHICLE
PLACARD OR TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE LABEL LOCATED ON THE DRIVER'S
DOOR. NOTE: AFTER INFLATION, THE VEHICLE MAY NEED TO BE DRIVEN FOR 20
MINUTES BEFORE THE FLASHING LIGHT WILL TURN OFF.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
40

•Battery power is required to release the brake/transmission interlock system (automatic
transmission only).There is a removable plug in the right side of the shift lever housing that
allows you to insert your finger to override the system.The ignition key must be in the
ON/RUN position to use the override lever.
CAUTION!
•Failure to follow these towing methods can cause severe transmission damage. Such
damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
• DO NOT flat tow any vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission. Damage to
the drivetrain will result.
• If the vehicle being towed requires steering, the ignition switch must be in the
ON/RUN position.
• Do not attempt to use sling-type equipment when towing.When securing the
vehicle to a flatbed truck, do not attach to front or rear suspension components.
Damage to your vehicle may result from improper towing.
ENHANCED ACCIDENT RESPONSE SYSTEM
•In the event of an impact causing airbag deployment, if the communication network remains
intact, and the power remains intact, depending on the nature of the event the ORC will
determine whether to have the Enhanced Accident Response System perform the following
functions:
•Cut off fuel to the engine.
• Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power or until the ignition key is turned off.
• Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power or until the
ignition key is removed.
• Unlock the doors automatically.
• After the event occurs, when the system is active, the message "Fuel Cutoff See Handbook" is
displayed.
• Carefully check the vehicle for fuel leaks in the engine compartment and on the ground near
the engine compartment and fuel tank before resetting the system and starting the engine.
NOTE: In order to start the engine and move the vehicle to a safe location after an impact, the
System Reset Procedure must be completed.
