WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGESIMPORTANT The warning light switches on in the instrument panel together with a dedicated message and/or acoustic signal
when applicable. These indications are indicative and precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or
alternative to the information contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. Always
refer to the information in this chapter in the event of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT Failure indications displayed are divided into two categories: serious and less serious failures. Serious failures are
indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious failures are indicated by a warning "cycle" with a shorter
duration. The display cycle of both categories can be interrupted. The instrument panel warning light will stay on until the cause
of the failure is eliminated.
Warning light What it means
INSUFFICIENT BRAKE FLUID / ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE ON
Low brake fluid level
The warning light switches on when the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level, possibly
due to a leak in the circuit. Restore the brake fluid level, then check that the warning light has switched off.
If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership.
Electric parking brake on
The warning light switches on when the electric parking brake is engaged. Release the electric parking
brake, then check that the warning light has switched off. If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat
Dealership.EBD FAILURE
The simultaneous switching on of the
(red) and
(amber) warning lights with the engine on
indicates either a failure of the EBD system or that the system is not available. In this case, the rear wheels
may suddenly lock and the vehicle may swerve when braking sharply.
Drive very carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have the system inspected immediately.

Warning light What it means
POWER STEERING FAILURE
This warning light (or symbol in the display) switches on when the ignition device is brought to MAR, but it
should switch off after a few seconds. If the warning light (or symbol on the display) remains on, you could
not have steering assistance and the effort required to operate the steering wheel could be increased;
steering is, however, possible. On some versions, the display shows the dedicated message. Contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.SEAT BELTS NOT FASTENED
The warning light switches on constantly if the vehicle is stationary and the driver side and/or passenger
side seat belt (with passenger seated) is not fastened. The warning light flashes and an acoustic signal will
sound if the vehicle is in motion and the driver side and/or passenger side seat belt (with passenger
seated) is not correctly fastened. Fasten the seat belt.AIRBAG FAILURE
If the warning light switches on constantly, this indicates a failure in the airbag system.
28) 29)
WARNING
28)If, when the ignition device is turned to MAR, the
warning light does not switch on or stays on whilst driving, a failure may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In this case the airbags or pretensioners may not be deployed in an impact or, in a lower number of cases,
they may be deployed accidentally. Before proceeding, contact a Fiat Dealership to have the system checked as soon as possible.
29)The failure of the
warning light is signalled by the switching on of the icon
on the instrument panel. In this case, the warning light
may not indicate any failure with the restraint systems. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked.

Warning light What it means
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
The warning light (or the icon on the display on some versions) switches on when the engine is overheated.
When driving normally: stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and check that the water level in the
reservoir is not below 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 between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir.
Also check visually for any fluid leaks. If, when restarting, the warning light switches on (or the icon is
displayed) again, contact a Fiat Dealership.
If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions(e.g. in high-performance driving): slow down and,
if the warning light stays on, stop the vehicle. Stop for two or three minutes with the engine running and
slightly accelerated to facilitate better coolant circulation, then turn the engine off. Check that the coolant
level is correct as described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to keep the engine running and slightly accelerated for
a few minutes before turning it off.ELECTRONIC ALARM
The warning light turns on when the electronic alarm is activated (deterrent function).

deactivated. When the systems are reactivated, the warning light switches off.REAR FOG LIGHT

The warning light switches on when electric parking brake failure is detected. Contact a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible.
