TRIP COMPUTER
Introduction
The “Trip computer” is used to display in-
formation on car operation when the key
is turned to MAR. This function allows
you to define two separate trips called
“Trip A” and “Trip B” for monitoring the
car’s “complete journey” in a reciprocal-
ly independent manner.
Both functions are resettable (reset – start
of a new journey).
“Trip A” shall be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– Outside temperature;
– Range
– Distance travelled
– Average consumption
– Instant consumption
– Average speed
– Travel time (driving time). “Trip B”, available on multifunction display
only, shall be used to display the figures
relating to:
– Distance travelled B
– Average consumption B
– Average speed B
– Travel time B (driving time).
NB
“Trip B” functions may be excluded
(see “Trip B on”). “Range” and “Instant
consumption” parameters cannot be reset.
Values displayed
Outside temperature
Indicates the temperature outside the
vehicle passenger compartment.
Range
This indicates the distance which may be
travelled with the fuel in the tank assum-
ing that driving style does not change. The
display will show the reading “- - - -“ when
the following events take place:
– value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
– car left parked with engine running for
a long time.
Distance travelled
This value shows the distance covered
from the start of the new journey. Average consumption
This value shows the average consump-
tion from the start of the new journey.
Instant fuel consumption
Indicates the fuel consumption. The val-
ue is constantly updated. The message
“- - - -” will appear on the display if the car
is parked with the engine running.
Average speed
This value shows the car’s average speed
based on the overall time elapsed since the
start of the new journey.
Journey time
This value shows the time elapsed since
the start of the new journey.
IMPORTANT If information is not avail-
able, the message “- - - -” will appear in-
stead of the Trip Computer values.
Counting of the different values will be re-
sumed regularly when normal operation
is restored. This will not cause any reset-
ting of the values displayed before the fail-
ure nor the starting of a new journey.

IN AN
EMERGENCY
❒ make sure that switch D-fig. 10 of the
compressor is in position 0 (off), start
the engine, plug into the nearest sock-
et E-fig. 11 and activate the compres-
sor by turning switch D-fig. 10 to po-
sition I(on). Inflate the tyre to the
pressure specified in the “Inflation
pressure” paragraph in the “Technical
specifications” section. For a more accurate reading, check
pressure gauge F-fig. 10
with the com-
pressor off;
❒if after 5 minutes you cannot reach at
least 1.5 bar, unplug the compressor
from the valve and the socket, then
move the car forward about ten metres
in order to distribute the sealant inside
the tyre evenly, then repeat the infla-
tion operation;
❒if after this operation you still cannot
reach at least 1.8 bar after 5 minutes,
do not resume driving because the tyre
is too damaged and the fast tyre repair
kit cannot guarantee suitable sealing.
Contact a Fiat Dealership;
❒if you do reach the tyre pressure spec-
ified in the “Inflation pressure” para-
graph in the “Technical specifications”
section, start driving immediately;
fig. 10F0M0202m
fig. 11F0M0203m
fig. 12F0M0364m
Apply the adhesive label
where it can be easily seen
by the driver as a reminder that the
tyre has been treated with the quick
repair kit. Drive carefully, particular-
ly on bends. Do not exceed 80 km/h.
Do not accelerate or brake suddenly.
WARNING
❒after driving for about 10 minutes, stop
and check the tyre pressure again; re-
member to put on the handbrake ;
If the pressure has fallen be-
low 1.8 bar, do not drive any
further: the Fix&Go automatic quick
tyre repair kit cannot guarantee
proper hold because the tyre is too
damaged. Contact a Fiat Dealership.

IN AN
EMERGENCY
❒if you get a pressure reading of at least
1.8 bar, restore the proper pressure
(with engine running and handbrake on)
and restart;
❒drive with the utmost care to the near-
est Fiat Dealership.
FOR CHECKING AND
RESTORING PRESSURE ONLY
The compressor may also be used for
restoring pressure only. Release the fast
coupling and connect it directly to the tyre
valve fig. 13; in this way, the cylinder will
not be connected to the compressor and
no sealant will be injected. CYLINDER REPLACEMENT
PROCEDURE
To replace the cylinder, proceed as fol-
lows:
❒disconnect
A-fig. 14;
❒turn the cylinder anticlockwise to lift
it out;
❒insert the new cylinder and turn it
clockwise;
❒connect Ato the cylinder and fit the
transparent tube Binto its allocated
space.
Remember to inform the
workshop that the tyre has
been treated with a quick repair kit.
Give the instruction booklet to the
personnel charged with handling the
treated tyre.

sudden pressure loss of the tyre.
