Low tyre pressureThe system warns the driver if one or
more tyres are flat by switching on
the
warning light on the instrument
panel and a warning message on
the display, along with an acoustic
signal. .
If the system does not recognise the
pressure value of one or more tyres, the
display will show dashes "– –"
This indication is displayed also when
turning the engine off and on again until
the RESET procedure is carried out.
Reset procedureThe iTPMS needs an initial "self-
learning" phase (with length depending
on the driving style and road conditions:
optimal conditions being driving on a
straight road at 80 km/h for at least 20
minutes) which starts when the RESET
procedure is carried out.
The RESET procedure must be carried
out:
❒whenever the tyre pressure is
modified;
❒when even only one tyre is changed;
❒when tyres are rotated/inverted;
❒when the space-saver wheel is fitted.Before carrying out the RESET
procedure, inflate the tyres to the rated
pressure values specified in the inflation
pressure table (see "Wheels" paragraph
in the "Technical specifications"
chapter).
If the RESET is not carried out, in all
above cases, the
warning light may
give false indications on one or more
tyres.
To carry out the RESET procedure, with
the vehicle stopped and the ignition
device at MAR, use the Main Menu as
follows:
❒go to "Vehicle info" and then to
"Reset tyre pressure"
❒press the "OK" and hold down (more
than 2 seconds)
❒the display will show the procedure
progress (with a graphic bar) till the
RESET is completed.
At the end of the RESET procedure the
display will show the "Reset saved"
message, indicating that the self-
learning has been started.
Working conditionsThe system is active for speeds above
15 km/h.In a few situations such as sporty
driving, particular conditions of the road
surface (e.g. icy, snowy, unsurfaced
roads...) the signalling may be delayed
or partial in detecting the contemporary
deflation of more than one tyre.
Under special conditions (e.g. vehicle
loaded asymmetrically on one side,
damaged or worn tyre, fitting the
space-saver wheel, fitting snow chains,
fitting different tyres on the axles) the
system may give false indications or be
temporarily deactivated.
If the system is temporarily deactivated
the
warning light flashes for about
75 seconds and then is continuously
on; at the same time, the display shows
a warning message.
This indication is displayed also after
the engine has been switched off and
then on again if the correct operating
conditions are not restored.
WARNING
57)The system is an aid for vehicle driving,
it DOES NOT warn the driver about
incoming vehicles outside of the detection
areas. The driver must always maintain a
sufficient level of attention to the traffic and
road conditions and for controlling the
trajectory of the vehicle.

SBR (Seat Belt
Reminder) SYSTEMThe SBR system warns the passengers
of the front and rear (where provided)
seats if their seat belt is not fastened.
The system signals unfastened seat
belts with visual warnings (warning light
on in the instrument panel and symbols
on the display) and an acoustic signal
(see the following paragraphs).
NOTE To deactivate the acoustic
warning permanently go to a
Fiat Dealership. The acoustic warning
can be reactivated at any time through
the display Menu (see the "Display"
paragraph in the “Knowing the
instrument panel” chapter).FRONT SEAT BELT
WARNING LIGHT
BEHAVIOURWhen the ignition device is turned to
MAR, warning light
(see fig. 66) lights
up for a few seconds, regardless of
the status of the front seat belts.
With vehicle at a standstill, if the driver
side seat belt or the passenger side
seat belt (with occupant present) is
unfastened, the warning light stays on
constantly.As soon as the threshold of 8 km/h is
exceeded for a few seconds with driver
or passenger side (with passenger
present) seat belts unfastened, an
acoustic warning is activated together
with the flashing of the
warning
light for approximately 105 seconds.
When this cycle of warnings is activated
it will stay on for its entire length
(regardless of the vehicle speed) or until
the seat belts are fastened again.
When the reverse is engaged, during
the cycle of warnings, the acoustic
signal is deactivated and the
warning
light turns on constantly. The cycle of
warnings will be reactivated as soon as
speed exceeds 8 km/h again.
REAR SEAT BELT ICON
BEHAVIOURThe icons are shown on the display (fig.
67 versions with colour display or fig.
68 versions with single-colour display)
after a few seconds have elapsed since
the ignition device is turned to MAR.
The icons turn off about 30 seconds
after they have been turned on or after
the seat belts have been fastened.
The icons shown on the display
indicate (according to the various
cases):
❒A: seat belt fastened, rear left seat;
❒B: seat belt fastened, rear central
seat;
❒C: seat belt unfastened, rear right
seat;
The icons are displayed according to
the corresponding seat belts in the rear
seats, and stay on for about 30
seconds from the last seat belt status
change:
❒if the seat belt is fastenedthe
corresponding icon will be as shown in
points A and B (green for the colour
display);
❒if the seat belt is unfastenedthe
corresponding icon will be as shown in
point C (red for the colour display).
