KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
EOBD SYSTEM
47)
The EOBD system (European On
Board Diagnosis) allows continuous
diagnosis of emission-related
components on the vehicle to be
made. It also alerts the driver, by
turning on warning light
in the
instrument panel (together with the
relevant message in the display
on some versions), when these
components are no longer in peak
condition (see "Warning lights and
messages" section).
The goal of the system is to:
❒monitor the efficiency of the system;
❒indicate an increase in emissions
due to vehicle malfunction;
❒indicate the need to replace
components which have
deteriorated.
The system also has a connector
that can be interfaced with
appropriate equipment, which
makes it possible to read the error
codes stored in the control unit
together with a series of specific
parameters for engine operation and
diagnosis.This check can also be carried out
by traffic control authorities.
IMPORTANT After eliminating the
failure, to check the system
completely, Fiat Dealerships run a
bench test and, if necessary, road
tests which may also call for a
long journey.
WARNING
47) If, when the ignition key is turned
to MAR, the
warning light
does not switch on, switches on
constantly or flashes when driving
(on certain versions together
with the message on the display),
contact a Fiat Dealership as soon
as possible. The operation of
warning light may be checked
by the traffic police using specific
devices. Always comply with the
traffic regulations in force in the
country where you are driving.
91
WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
The warning light switches on together with (where the instrument panel permits) a specific message and/or acoustic
signal. 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
faults are indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious faults 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 malfunction is eliminated.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
TOO HIGH
When the key is turned to MAR, the
warning light switches on but it should
switch off after a few seconds. The warning
light turns on when the engine is
overheated.
The display shows the dedicated message.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 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. Wait for 2 or 3
minutes with the engine running and slightly
accelerated to further favour the coolant circulation.
Then stop the engine. Check that the coolant level is
correct as described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to
keep the engine on and slightly accelerated for a few
minutes before switching it off.
redLOW BATTERY CHARGE
The warning light comes on when the
ignition key is turned to MAR, but it should
go out as soon as the engine has started
(with the engine running at idle speed a
brief delay before going out is acceptable).If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately.
