AIRBAG FAULT
(red)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR,
the warning light turns on but should go
off after a few seconds.
The warning light stays on constantly if
there is a failure in the airbag system.
A specific message is displayed on certain
versions.
¬
If the warning light
¬
does
not turn on when turning the
key to MAR or stays on during car
travel, there may be a failure in the
restraint systems. If this is the case,
the airbags or pretensioners may not
be deployed in an accident or, in a
minor number of cases, they may be
deployed incorrectly. Contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately to have the
system checked before driving off.
WARNING
A problem with the warning
light
¬
(light off) is indicat-
ed by the warning light
“, which in-
dicates the front passenger airbag is
deactivated, flashing for more than
the usual four seconds.
WARNING
OVERHEATED ENGINE
COOLANT (red)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR,
the warning light turns on but should go
off after a few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the en-
gine is overheated.
If the warning light comes on, proceed as
follows:
❒when driving normally: stop the car,
switch off the engine and check that the
coolant level in the reservoir is not be-
low the MIN mark. If it is, wait for the
engine to cool down then slowly and
carefully open the cap, top up with
coolant and check that the level is be-
tween the MIN and MAX marks on the
reservoir. Also check visually for any
fluid leaks. If, when restarting, the warn-
ing light comes on again, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
