WARNING
46) For connection to the existing
devices supplied in the vehicle
contact a Fiat Dealership to
prevent any problems that could
impair vehicle safety.
PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
The following devices are used for
reducing petrol fuel engine
emissions:
❒three-way catalytic converter
(catalytic converter);
❒oxygen sensors;
❒evaporation control system.
In addition, do not let the engine
run, even for a test, with one or
more spark plugs disconnected.
The following devices are used for
reducing diesel fuel engine
emissions:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒exhaust gas recirculation system
(EGR);
❒particulate filter (DPF) (for versions/
markets, where provided).
DIESEL PARTICULATE
FILTER (DPF)
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a
mechanical filter, integral with the
exhaust system, that physically
traps carbon particles present in the
exhaust gases of diesel engines.
The diesel particulate filter has been
adopted to eliminate almost all
carbon particles in compliance with
current / future legal regulations.
During normal use of the vehicle, the
Powertrain Control Module records
a set of data (travel time, type of
route, temperatures reached etc.)
and calculates how much particulate
has been trapped by the filter.
Since this filter physically traps
particulate, it should be regenerated
(cleaned) at regular intervals by
burning carbon particles. The
regeneration procedure is controlled
automatically by the Powertrain
Control Module according to the
filter conditions and vehicle usage
conditions.

TRIP COMPUTER
IN BRIEF
The Trip computer is used to
display information on vehicle
operation when the ignition key is
turned to MAR. This function
allows you to define two separate
trips, called "Trip A" and "Trip
B", for monitoring the "complete
mission" (journey) of the vehicle in
a reciprocally independent
manner. Both functions can be
reset (reset means start of a new
journey).
"Trip A" can be used to display the
values relating to:
❒External temperature
❒Range
❒Distance travelled A
❒Average consumption A
❒Instant consumption
❒Average speed A
❒Trip time A (driving time)
❒Reset Trip A
"Trip B", available on multifunction
display only, is used to display
the values relating to:
❒Distance travelled B
❒Average consumption B
❒Average speed B
❒Trip time B (driving time)
❒Trip B reset
11)
Values displayed
External temperature
Indicates the temperature outside
the vehicle passenger compartment.
Range (for versions/markets, where
provided)
This indicates the distance that can
still be travelled with the fuel in the
tank, assuming that driving style
remains unvaried. The display will
show the reading "----"when the
following events take place:
❒range is lower than 50 km (or
corresponding figure in mi)
❒vehicle is left parked with the engine
running for a long time
IMPORTANT The range can be
affected by several factors: driving
style (see paragraph “Driving style”
in the “Starting and driving” section),
type of route (motorway, towns
and cities, mountain roads, etc…),
usage conditions (load, tyre
pressures, etc…). Trip planning must
therefore take the above into
account.
Distance travelled
This value shows the distance
travelled from the start of the new
journey.
Average consumption (for
versions/markets, where provided)
This value shows the approximate
average fuel consumption from
the start of the new journey.
Instant consumption (for versions/
markets where provided)
This value shows the fuel
consumption. The value is
constantly updated. The display will
show "----"ifthevehicle is parked
with the engine running.
89
Average speed
This value shows the vehicle's
average speed based on the overall
time elapsed since the start of the
new journey.
Trip time
Time elapsed since the start of the
new journey.
IMPORTANT If there is no
information, the Trip computer
displays "----" in place of the value.
When normal operating conditions
are restored, the counting of the
various values is resumed, without
either zeroing the values displayed
prior to the problem, or starting a
new mission.
TRIP control button
The TRIP button is located at the
end of the right stalk fig. 117. With
the ignition key turned to MAR,
this button allows you to view the
previously described values and also
zero them to begin a new journey:
❒brief press to access the various
values displays;❒long press to reset and then start a
new mission.
New mission
This begins after a reset:
❒"manual" resetting by the user, by
pressing the relevant button;
❒“automatic” resetting, when the
distance travelled reaches 3,999.9
km or 9,999.9 km (depending on the
type of display) or when the travel
time reaches 99.59 (99 hours and 59
minutes);
❒after disconnection/reconnection of
the battery.
IMPORTANT The reset operation
when “Trip A” details are being
displayed only resets the information
associated with this function.IMPORTANT The reset operation
when “Trip B” details are being
displayed resets only the information
associated with this function.
Start of journey procedure
With the ignition key in the MAR
position, reset by pressing the TRIP
button and keeping it pressed for
more than 2 seconds.
Exit Trip
You can automatically exit the TRIP
function once all the values have
been displayed or by holding the
MENU
button (*) down for more
than 1 second.
(*) For versions/markets where
provided.
IMPORTANT
11) The “Trip B” function may be
disabled (see paragraph
“Activating Trip B”). "Range" and
"Instantaneous fuel consumption"
parameters cannot be reset.

dummy pole fig. 144
In the event of vehicle inactivity,
special attention must be paid to the
disconnection of the battery power
supply.
Proceed as follows: detach the
connector A (by pressing button B)
from sensor C for monitoring the
status of the battery installed on the
negative battery pole D. This sensor
should never be disconnected
from the pole except if the battery is
replaced.
81)
EMERGENCY
STARTING
In the case of emergency starting,
never connect the negative lead
(–) of the auxiliary battery to the
negative pole C of the vehicle
battery, but rather to either the
dummy pole B or to an
engine/gearbox earth point fig. 145.
82) 83) 84) 85)
WARNING
81) If the battery needs to be
replaced, always contact a Fiat
Dealership. Replace the battery
with a new one of the same type
and specifications.
82) Before opening the bonnet,
make sure that the vehicle is
switched off and the key is in the
OFF position. Please follow the
instructions on the decal near the
front crossmember. It is advisable
to extract the key when there
are other people in the vehicle.
83) The vehicle should always be
evacuated after the key has been
removed or turned to the OFF
position. When refuelling, make
sure that the vehicle is switched
off with the key in the OFF
position.

In order to avoid these problems,
different types of diesel are
distributed according to the season:
summer type, winter type and
arctic type (cold/mountain areas). If
refuelling with diesel fuel whose
specifications are not suitable for the
current temperature, it is advisable
to mix TUTELA DIESEL ART additive
in the proportions shown on the
container. Pour the additive into the
tank before the diesel fuel.
When using or parking the vehicle
for a long time in the mountains
or cold areas, it is advisable to refuel
using locally available diesel fuel.
In this case, it is also advisable
to keep the tank over 50% full.
22)
FILLING THE TANK
To fill the tank completely, top up
twice after the first click of the fuel
supply gun. Further top ups could
cause faults in the fuel supply
system.FUEL TANK PLUG
Opening
1) Open flap A fig. 149, pulling it
outwards, hold cap B still, insert the
ignition key in the lock and turn it
anticlockwise.
2) Turn the cap anticlockwise and
remove it. The cap has a device
C that attaches it to the flap so
it cannot be lost. When refilling,
attach the plug to the flap, as
shown.Closing
1) Fit the cap (complete with key)
and turn it clockwise until it clicks
once or more.
2) Turn the key clockwise and
extract it, then close the flap.
The sealing may cause a slight
pressure increase in the tank. A little
breathing off, while slackening the
plug is absolutely normal.

IMPORTANT
22) For diesel engines, use only
diesel fuel for motor vehicles
in accordance with EN590
European specifications. The use
of other products or mixtures
may damage the engine beyond
repair and consequently invalidate
the warranty, due to the damage
caused. If you accidentally refuel
with another type of fuel, do not
start the engine, and drain the
tank. If the engine has run, even
for a very short time, you will need
to have the entire fuel supply
system emptied in addition to the
tank.
23) Do not bring naked flames or lit
cigarettes near the fuel tank filler:
fire risk. Keep your face away
from the fuel filler to prevent
breathing in harmful vapours.
SAVING FUEL
Some useful tips are given below for
fuel saving and reducing harmful
emissions of CO2 and other
pollutants (nitrogen oxides, unburnt
hydrocarbons, Particulate Matter
(PM), etc.).
PRACTICAL ADVICE
FOR REDUCING FUEL
CONSUMPTION AND
HARMFUL EMISSIONS
Vehicle conditions
❒Have checks and adjustments for
vehicle maintenancecarried out
in accordance with the “Scheduled
servicing plan”.
❒Checktyrepressure regularly, at
least once every four weeks.
Excessively low pressures will
increase consumption because
rolling resistance will be higher. In
addition, this wears the tyre more
quickly and impairs performance.
❒Only usesnow tyreswhen
the weather conditions make them
absolutely necessary. They increase
consumption and noise.❒Do not travel witha heavy load: the
weight of the vehicle (especially when
driving in town) and its geometry
greatly affect fuel consumption and
stability.
❒Removeroof racks or ski racks
after use. These accessories reduce
the vehicle's aerodynamic
penetration and have a negative
effect on fuel consumption.
❒When transporting particularly large
objects, use atrailerif possible.
❒Use the vehicle's air vents if possible:
travelling with the windows open
impairs aerodynamics.
❒Use electrical devices only for the
amount of time needed. The vehicle’s
heated rear window, additional
headlights, screen wipers and heater
fan require a considerable amount
of energy; this increases fuel
consumption (by up to +25% in an
urban cycle).
❒Air conditioning leads to higher fuel
consumption (on average up to
+30%). If the temperature outside is
not too extreme, try and use the
air vents.

IMPORTANT
36) The presence of water in the
supply circuit may cause severe
damage to the injection system
and irregular engine operation. If
the
warning light comes on,
go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the system bled.
If this problem is indicated
immediately after refuelling, water
may have entered the fuel tank.
In this case, immediately turn off
the engine and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
BATTERY
The battery is of the “limited
maintenance” type: under normal
conditions of use, the electrolyte
does not need topping up with
distilled water.
It does, however, need to be
checked periodically at a Fiat
Dealership or by specialist personnel
to make sure it is working correctly.
133) 134)
REPLACING THE
BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with
an original spare part with the same
specifications.
If a battery with different
specifications is fitted, the service
intervals given in the “Scheduled
Servicing Plan” will no longer be
valid.
Follow the battery manufacturer's
instructions for maintenance.
