RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND MOBILE
PHONES
Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones,
CB radios, amateur radio, etc.) cannot be used
inside the car unless a separate aerial is mounted
externally.
IMPORTANT The use of these devices inside the
passenger compartment (without an external aerial)
may cause the electrical systems to malfunction.
This could compromise the safety of the car in
addition to constituting a potential hazard for
passengers' health.
In addition, transmission and reception of these
devices may be negatively affected by the shielding
effect of the car body. As far as the use of
EC-approved mobile phones is concerned (GSM,
GPRS, UMTS), follow the usage instructions provided
by the mobile phone manufacturer.
REFUELLING THE CARVersions equipped with "Smart Fuel" system are
provided with an inhibiter which prevents refuelling
with incorrect fuel.
Accidental refuelling with non-compliant fuels (e.g.
petrol in Diesel engines) can only occur in the case
of versions equipped with fuel tank cap. Before
refuelling, make sure that the fuel type is correct.
Stop the engine before refuelling.
PETROL ENGINES
Use unleaded petrol only, with an octane number
(R.O.N.) no lower than 95. In order to prevent
damage to the catalytic converter never introduce
even the smallest amount of leaded petrol, even
in the event of an emergency.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalytic converter leads
to harmful exhaust emissions, thus contributing to
air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol, even in small
amounts or in an emergency, as this would damage
the catalytic converter beyond repair.
DIESEL ENGINES
Operation at low temperatures
If the outside temperature is very low, the diesel
thickens due to the formation of paraffin clots with
consequent defective operation of the fuel supply
system.

AIR BAGSThe car is fitted with front air bags for driver and
passenger, front side bags for driver and passenger
chest-shoulder protection (for versions/markets,
where provided) and window bags for protecting the
heads of front occupants.
FRONT AIR BAGS
The front (driver and passenger) air bags protect the
front seat occupants in the event of head-on impacts
of medium-high severity, by placing the bag between
the occupant and the steering wheel or dashboard.
Therefore non-deployment in other types of impacts
(side impacts, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) does not
indicate a system malfunction.
Front (driver and passenger) air bags are not a
replacement of but complementary to the seat belts,
which you are recommended to always wear, as
specified by law in Europe and most non-European
countries.
In the event of an impact, those not wearing a seat
belt move forwards and may come into contact with
the bag which is still inflating. The protection offered
by the bag is compromised in these circumstances.
Front airbags may not deploy in the following
situations:❒frontal impacts against highly deformable objects
not involving the front surface of the car (e.g.
wing collision against guard rail, etc.);
❒car wedging under other vehicles or protective
barriers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they may not provide any additional protection
compared with seat belts, so their activation would
be inappropriate. In these cases, non-deployment
does not indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering wheel, on the dashboard
in the passenger side air bag area, on side
upholstery on roof and on the seats. Never put
objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the passenger's
side dashboard since they could interfere with
correct inflation of the air bag and also cause
serious injur y to the passengers.
Driver's front air bag
This consists of an instantly inflating bag contained in
a special recess in the centre of the steering wheel
fig. 104.

IN AN EMERGENCY
In an emergency we recommend that you call the free-phone number found on the Warranty
Booklet.You can also go to the www.fiat.com website to find your nearest Fiat Dealership.STARTING THE ENGINEContact to a Fiat Dealership immediately if
instrument panel warning light
comes on
constantly.
JUMP STARTING
If the battery is flat, the engine may be started using
an auxiliary battery with the same capacity or a
little higher than the flat one.
To start the vehicle, proceed as follows:❒connect the positive terminals (sign + near the
terminal) of the two batteries with a jump lead
fig. 110;
❒with a second lead, connect the negative terminal
– of the auxiliary battery to an earthing point
on the engine or the gearbox of the car to be
started;
❒start the engine;
❒when the engine has been started, remove the
leads reversing the order above.
For versions with Start&Stop system, in case of
starting by auxiliary battery, refer to the paragraph
“Start&Stop system” in the chapter “Getting to
know your car”.
If after a few attempts the engine does not start, do
not persist but contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the negative
terminals of the two batteries: sparks could ignite
explosive gas released from the battery. If the
auxiliary battery is installed on another car, prevent
accidental contact between metallic parts of the two
cars.

Incorrect installation of electric and
electronic devices may cause severe
damage to your car. After purchasing your
vehicle, if you wish to install any accessories (car
alarm, car phone, etc .), please contact your Fiat
Dealership, which will suggest the most
appropriate devices for your vehicle, and will,
most importantly, recommend installing a
oversized battery.Batteries contain substances which are
ver y dangerous for the environment . For
battery replacement , contact a Fiat
Dealership.
WARNING
If the car will be unused for an extended
period of time in extremely cold
weather conditions, remove the battery and
store it in a heated area to avoid it freezing.
WARNING
Always wear appropriate goggles when
working on or near the battery.
BRAKESThe car is equipped with 4 mechanical wear
detection systems for brake pads: one for each wheel
assembly.
When the brake linings are about to wear out,
pressing the brake pedal, a light hiss is heard: this
indication lasts around 100 km (depending on the
driving style and the route type).
In these circumstances it is still possible, proceeding
with caution, to carry on driving.
In any case, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the worn brake pads replaced.

"User" using the
or
buttons and press the
MENU button.
A 7-bar graph appears on the display, in which each
bar represents a frequency.
Select the bar to adjust using the
or
buttons; the
selected bar will start to flash and it can be adjusted
using the

selected use the
or
buttons.
The current status of the function selected will be
shown on the display.
The functions managed by the Menu are:
❒AF SWITCHING (ON/OFF);❒TRAFFIC INFORMATION (ON/OFF);
❒REGIONAL MODE regional programmes
(ON/OFF);
❒MP3 DISPLAY (CD MP3 display settings);
❒SPEED VOLUME (speed-dependent automatic
volume control);

SOUND-SYSTEM

Note
If the TA function is activated with an audio source
other than Tuner (Radio) (CD, MP3, telephone or
Mute/Pause), the radio can carry out an automatic
search and therefore it is possible, when reactivating
the Tuner (Radio) source, that the frequency tuned
into is different from the one previously set.
With the TA function, it is possible to:
❒search only for RDS stations that broadcast in FM
and are enabled to broadcast traffic information;
❒receive traffic information even when the CD
player is in operation;
❒receive traffic information at a minimum preset
volume even with the radio volume off.Note
In some countries there are radio stations that, even
with the TP function activated, do not transmit traffic
information (the icon "TP" appears on the display).
If the radio is tuned to a station in the AM band,
when TA is activated it will tune to the last selected
station in the FM1 band.
The volume at which the traffic news is transmitted
depends on the listening volume:
❒listening volume below 5: traffic news volume 5
(fixed value);
❒listening volume above 5: traffic news volume equal
to listening volume +1.
If the volume is changed during traffic news, the level
will not be shown on the display; the new level will
only be maintained during the news.
While traffic information is being received, “TRAFFIC
INFORMATION” will appear on the display.
The TA function can be interrupted by pressing any
button on the car radio.

the radio will come on at the volume set for these
sources. The volume can be adjusted between the

the external audio source.
❒If the battery charge is low, it will not be possible
to adjust the volume between the minimum and
maximum levels.
