WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
ABS SYSTEM FAILURE
(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 lights up when the sys-
tem is either not working or not available.
In this case, the braking system preserves
its efficiency unaltered without, howev-
er, offering the extra operating capacity of
the ABS system. Drive carefully and go to
a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
On certain versions the dedicated mes-
sage is displayed.
EBD SYSTEM
FAILURE
(red) (amber)
Simultaneous turning on of the warning
lights
xwhile >the engine is running
indicates an EBD system failure or non-
availability of the system. Early locking of
the rear wheels may occur in the event of
violent braking causing the vehicle to
swerve.
Drive very carefully to a Fiat Dealership
to have the system inspected.
On certain versions the dedicated mes-
sage is displayed.

ENGINE OIL
(only Multijet versions with DPF - red)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR
(ON), the warning light switches on and
should go out as soon as the engine is
started.
1. Low engine oil pressure
The warning light turns on and stays on
constantly (for versions/markets, where
provided) along with the message on the
display when the system detects that en-
gine oil pressure is low.ESP / TRACTION PLUS
SYSTEM FAILURE
(amber)
Turning the ignition key to MARthe
warning light turns on, but it should go off
after few seconds.
If the warning light does not go off or stays
on when travelling together with the but-
ton led ASR OFF, contact Fiat Dealership.
On certain versions the dedicated mes-
sage is displayed.
NoteWarning light flashing when driving
indicates that the ESP system is active.
áIf the warning light vturns on when the vehicle is
travelling (on certain versions to-
gether with the message on the dis-
play) stop the engine immediately
and contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
2. Exhausted engine oil
(only Multijet versions with DPF)
The warning light will flash and a specific
message will appear on the display (for
versions/markets, where provided). The
warning light may flash in the following
ways, depending on the version:
– for 1 minute every two hours;
– for 3 minute cycles with the warning
light off for intervals of 5 seconds until oil
is changed.
After the initial warning, each time the en-
gine is started up, the warning light will
continue to flash in the above mentioned
modes, until the oil is changed. A specific
message will appear on the display (for
versions/markets, where provided) in ad-
dition to the warning light.
If the warning light flashes, this does not
mean that the car is defective but simply
informs the driver that it is now necessary
to change the oil as a result of regular ve-
hicle use.

SEAT BELTS
NOT FASTENED
(red)
The warning light in the panel
turns on steadily when the vehicle is not
running and the seat belt on the driver’s
side is not correctly fastened. The warn-
ing light blinks, and a buzzer goes off, when
the vehicle is running and the front seat
belts are not correctly fastened.
The buzzer of the S.B.R. (Seat Belt Re-
minder) system can only be switched off
by a Fiat Dealership.
On some versions the system can be re-
activated from the setup menu.INCOMPLETE
DOOR LOCKING (red)
On certain versions the warning
light turns on when one or more doors or
the tailgate are not properly shut.
On certain versions the dedicated mes-
sage is displayed.
MINIMUM
ENGINE OIL LEVEL
(red)
Turning the ignition key to MARthe
warning light on the panel turns on, but
it should go off after a few seconds.
The warning light goes on in the panel
when the oil level drops below the mini-
mum value. Top up the oil to the correct
level (see “Level checking” in section
“Maintenance and care”).
On certain versions the dedicated mes-
sage is displayed.

k
Note that engine oil is exhausted faster
under the following circumstances:
– use of the vehicle prevalently for city dri-
ving, requiring more frequent regenera-
tion of DPF
– use of the vehicle for short drives, in
which the engine does not have time to
reach its regular operating temperature
– repeated interruption of the regenera-
tion process, signalled by the DPF warn-
ing light coming on.
Exhausted engine oil should
be replaced as soon as pos-
sible after the warning light comes on,
never more than 500 km after the
warning light first comes on. Failure
to change the oil within the first 500
km may result in severe damage to
the engine and will result in forfeiture
of the warranty. Remember that
when the warning light flashes, it does
not mean that the level of engine oil
is low, so if the light flashes you must
not top up.

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)
(amber)
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.
h
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.
