Warning lights on
displayWhat it means What to do
redLOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
When the key is turned to MAR-ON, the digital warning light switches on,
but it should switch off as soon as the engine is started.
The warning light switches on constantly together with the message in
the display when the system detects that the engine oil pressure is
insufficient.
22)
ENGINE OIL DETERIORATED
(MultiJet versions with DPF only)
The warning light starts to flash together with a message on the display
(for versions/markets, where provided) when the system detects that the
engine oil has deteriorated.
If the warning light flashes, this does not mean that the vehicle is faulty,
but simply informs the driver that it is now necessary to change the
engine oil as a result of regular vehicle use. If the oil is not changed, when
a second deterioration threshold is reached, the warning light
also
switches on in the instrument panel and the engine operation is limited to
3000 rpm.
If the oil is still not changed, when a third deterioration threshold is
reached, the engine is limited to 1500 rpm to avoid damage.Contact a Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible.
100) 101)
Remember that the
deterioration of the engine
oil is accelerated by:
– mainly town use of the
vehicle which makes the
DPF regeneration process
more frequent
– use of the vehicle for
short trips, preventing the
engine from reaching
operating temperature
– repeated interruption of
the regeneration process,
signalled by the DPF
warning light coming on.

WARNING
98) If thewarning light does not switch on when the key is turned to MAR-ON or if it stays on when driving (together
with the message on the display), there may be a fault in the restraint systems; in this case, the airbags or
pretensioners may not deploy in the event of an accident or, in a lower number of cases, they could deploy
erroneously. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked.
99) The failure of the
warning light is indicated by thewarning light flashing or, depending on the version, by the
symbol constantly on in the display. In this case, thewarning light may not indicate a fault in the restraint
systems. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked.
100) Deteriorated engine oil must be replaced as soon as possible after the
warning light comes on, and never more
than 500 km after it first switches on. Failure to observe the above indications may result in severe damage to the
engine and invalidate the warranty. Remember that when the warning light comes on, it does not mean that the level
of engine oil is low, so if it flashes you do not need to top up the engine oil.
101) If the
warning light flashes when driving, contact a Fiat Dealership.

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.
