If the EV malfunction light comes on while driving or charging see your authorized studio
as soon as possible .
- Regenerative Brake System Warning Light
•If the light turns on and remains on while driving, it suggests that there is a potential
problem with the Regenerative Brake System (RBS) and the need for system service .
See your authorized studio as soon as possible .
- Power Steering System Warning
•This light is used to manage the electrical warning of the EPS (Power Steering System).
When the ignition is turned to the ON/RUN position, the warning light will illuminate
momentarily .If the warning light stays on, cycle the ignition to the OFF position and back
to ON/RUN. If the warning light stays on, contact your authorized Fiat Studio .

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
51
- 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 studio 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 .
• ESC Activation/Malfunction Light can blink during a ESC or TC intervention.
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Light
•Each tire, 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 Monitor-
ing 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 illumi-
nates, 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.
• Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the
driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale .
• Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly .The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with
the low tire pressure telltale .When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash
for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence
will continue each time the vehicle is restarted as long as the malfunction exists .
