VEHICLE INACTIVITY
If the vehicle is to be left inactive for longer
than a month, the following precautions
should be noted:
❒park the vehicle in covered, dry and if
possible well-ventilated premises;
❒engage a gear;
❒check that the handbrake is not en-
gaged;
❒disconnect the battery negative termi-
nal and check the battery charge. This
check is to be repeated every three
months. Recharge if the optical indica-
tor shows a dark colour without the
central green area;
❒clean and protect the painted parts us-
ing protective wax;
❒clean and protect the shiny metal parts
using special compounds readily avail-
able;
❒ sprinkle talcum powder on the rubber
windscreen and rear window wiper
blades and lift them off the glass;
❒slightly open the windows;
❒cover the vehicle with a cloth or per-
forated plastic sheet. Do not use sheets
of non-perforated plastic as they do not
allow moisture on the vehicle body to
evaporate;
❒inflate tyres to +0,5 bar above the nor-
mal specified pressure and check it at
intervals;
❒if you don’t disconnect the battery from
the electric system, check its charge
every month and recharge it if the op-
tical indicator shows a dark colour
without the central green area;
❒do not drain the engine cooling system.
IMPORTANT Where relevant, switch off
the vehicle alarm with the remote control.
Keep your speed down when
snow chains are fitted. Do
not exceed 50 km/h. Avoid
potholes, steps and pave-
ments and avoid also to dri-
ve for long distances on
roads not covered with snow to pre-
vent damaging the vehicle and the
roadbed.

go off after few seconds.
The warning light stays on glowing
steadily if there is a failure in the air bag
system.
¬If when turning the ignition
key to M, the warning light
¬does not turn on or stays on when
travelling there could be a failure in
safety systems; in this event air bags
or pretensioners could not trigger in
case of impact or, in a minor number
of cases, they could trigger acciden-
tally. Contact Fiat Dealership imme-
diately to have the system checked.
WARNING
The failure of the warning
light ¬(warning light off) is

HIGH TEMPERATURE
(red)
Turning the ignition key to Mthe warn-
ing light turns on, but it should go off
after few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the
engine is overheated.
The flashing of the warning lights indi-

too low.
If the warning light comes on, proceed as
follows:
❒normal driving conditions: stop
the vehicle, switch off the engine and
check whether the water level in the
reservoir is not below the MIN
mark. Otherwise wait for few sec-
onds to allow the engine cooling,
then open slowly and carefully the
cap, top up coolant and check
whether its level is falling between
MINand MAXmarks in the reser-
voir. Check visually for any leak. If,
when restarting, the warning light
comes on again, contact a Fiat
Dealership.

In these conditions it is possible to con-
tinue driving without however requiring
heavy effort or high speed from the
engine. In any case, contact Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
