WELCOME FROM FIAT
Congratulations on selecting your new FIAT 500e.Be assured that your 500e represents
an elegant marriage of technology and Italian styling that is as good for the environment
as is fun to drive!
Your new 500e has characteristics to enhance the driver's control under some driving
conditions.These are to assist the driver and are never a substitute for attentive driving.
They can never take the driver's place.Always drive carefully.
Your new vehicle has many features for the comfort and convenience of you and your
passengers.Some of these should not be used when driving because they take your eyes
from the road or your attention from driving.Never text while driving or take your eyes
more than momentarily off the road.
This guide illustrates and describes the operation of features and equipment that are ei-
ther standard or optional on this vehicle.This guide may also include a description of fea-
tures and equipment that are no longer available or were not ordered on this vehicle.
Please disregard any features and equipment described in this guide that are not available
on this vehicle.Chrysler Group LLC reserves the right to make changes in design and
specifications and/or make additions to or improvements to its products without imposing
any obligation upon itself to install them on products previously manufactured.
This User Guide has been prepared to help you quickly become acquainted with the im-
portant features of your vehicle.It contains most things you will need to operate and
maintain the vehicle, including emergency information.
The DVD includes a computer application containing detailed owner's information which
can be viewed on a personal computer or MAC computer.The multimedia DVD also
includes videos which can be played on any standard DVD player.Additional DVD opera-
tional information is located on the back of the DVD sleeve.
For complete owner information, refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD in the
owner’s kit provided at the time of new vehicle purchase.For your convenience, the in-
formation contained on the DVD may also be printed and saved for future reference.
We are committed to protecting our environment and natural resources.By converting
from paper to electronic delivery for the majority of the user information for your ve-
hicle, together we greatly reduce the demand for tree-based products and lessen the
stress on our environment.

WARNING!
•Pedals that cannot move freely can cause loss of vehicle control and increase the
risk of serious personal injury.
•Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver foot well while the ve-
hicle is moving.Objects can become trapped under the brake pedal and accelera-
tor pedal causing a loss of vehicle control.
•Failure to properly follow floor mat installation or mounting can cause interference
with the brake pedal and accelerator pedal operation causing loss of control of
the vehicle.
•Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.Al-
lowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of rea-
sons.A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured.Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the shift buttons.
•Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil-
dren.A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
•Never use the ‘PARK’ position as a substitute for the parking brake.Always apply
the parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement and pos-
sible injury or damage.
•Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
USE OF AFTERMARKET PRODUCTS (ELECTRONICS)
The use of aftermarket devices including cell phones, MP3 players, GPS systems, or char-
gers may affect the performance of on-board wireless features.If you are experiencing
difficulties with any of your wireless features, try disconnecting your aftermarket devices
to see if the situation improves.If your symptoms persist, please see an authorized dealer.
