amberDPF (PARTICULATE FILTER) CLEANING
UNDERWAY
(for versions/markets, where provided)
When the key is turned to MAR-ON, the warning
light switches on but should switch off after a few
seconds.
The warning light switches on constantly to inform
the driver that the DPF system needs to eliminate
the trapped pollutants (particulate) through the
regeneration process.
A dedicated message will appear on the display
when the warning light switches on (for versions/
markets, where provided).The warning light does not come on during
every DPF regeneration, but only when driving
conditions require that the driver is notified. The
warning light will switch off if the vehicle remains
in motion until regeneration has been
completed. On average, the process lasts 15
minutes.
The best conditions to complete the
regeneration process are reached by driving the
vehicle constantly at 60 km/h with engine speed
above 2000 rpm. When this warning light
comes on, it does not indicate a vehicle failure
and it should not therefore be taken to a
workshop.

SBR SYSTEM
IN BRIEF
The vehicle is fitted with a Seat
Belt Reminder system (SBR),
consisting of a buzzer and a
flashing warning light
on the
instrument panel which warns the
driver that the seat belt must be
fastened.
The buzzer can be deactivated
(until the next engine stop) as
follows:
❒fasten the driver's seat belt;
❒turn the ignition key to the MAR-ON
position;
❒wait for over 20 seconds and then
release one of the seat belts.
For permanent deactivation,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
With digital display, the SBR system
can only be reactivated at a Fiat
Dealership.
With multifunction display, the SBR
system can also be reactivated
through the set-up menu.
PRETENSIONERS
To increase the protective efficiency
of the front seat belts, the vehicle
is fitted with pretensioners. These
devices, in the event of a head-on
crash or side impact, rewind the
seat belts a few centimetres. In this
way, they ensure that the belts fit
tightly to the wearer before the
restraining action begins.
The retractor locks to indicate that
the pretensioner has intervened; the
seat belt cannot be drawn back
up even when guiding it manually.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action
of the pretensioner, wear the seat
belt tight to the chest and pelvis.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of
the pretensioner which is not
harmful and does not involve any
fire hazard.
