MESSAGES
CLEANING DPF
(PARTICULATE
FILTER) IN PROGRESS
(only Multijet versions with
DPF - amber)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR
(ON), the warning light switches on but it
must switch off after a few seconds. The
warning light comes on constantly to no-
tify the driver that the DPF system needs
to eliminate captured pollutants (particu-
late) by the regeneration process. The
warning light does not come on during
every DPF regeneration, but only when
driving conditions require notification of
the driver. To switch the warning light off,
the car must stay in motion until regen-
eration has been completed. The process
normally takes about 15 minutes. The op-
timum conditions to end the process are
achieved by keeping the car in motion up
to 60km/h with an engine speed higher
than 2,000 rpm. This light coming on is not
a car defect and therefore the car does
not need to go to the workshop. A spe-
cific message will appear on the display
when the warning light comes on (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided).FUEL RESERVE
(amber)
When the ignition key is moved
to MAR, the warning light turns on and
should go off after a few seconds.
The warning light turns on when about 6
to 7 litres of fuel are left in the tank.
IMPORTANT The warning light flashes to
indicate a system failure. If this is the case,
go to a Fiat Dealership to have the system
checked.GLOW PLUG HEATING
(Multijet versions)

GLOW PLUG HEATING
FAILURE
(Multijet versions)
(amber)
Glow plug heating
The warning light goes on when the key is
turned to MAR. It goes out as soon as the
glow plugs have reached the preset tem-
perature. Start the engine as soon as the
warning light goes out.
IMPORTANT At high ambient tempera-
tures the warning light stays on for an ex-
tremely short time.
Glow plug heating failure
The warning light flashes in the event of
a failure in the glow plug heating system.
Go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as possi-
ble.
On certain versions the dedicated mes-
sage is displayed.

ç
mAlways drive at a speed ap-
propriate to the traffic con-
ditions, the weather and speed limits.
The engine may be turned off while
the DPF light is on; however, repeat-
ed interruption of the regeneration
process may result in premature ex-
haustion of engine oil. For this reason
it is always advisable to wait for the
light to go off before turning off the
engine, following the instructions ap-
pearing above. It is not advisable to
complete DPF regeneration with the
vehicle stationary.
