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.
Average speed
This value shows the vehicle's average
speed based on the overall time
elapsed since the start of the new
journey.
80
KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
Page 85 of 298

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. 118. 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 theMENU
button (*) down for more than 1
second.
(*) For versions/markets where
provided.
WARNING
11)The “Trip B” function may be disabled
(see paragraph “Activating Trip B”).
"Range" and "Instantaneous fuel
consumption" parameters cannot be reset.

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, thewarning 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.

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.
Warning lights on
panelWhat it means What to do
redLOW BRAKE FLUID/HANDBRAKE ENGAGED
The warning light switches on when the key is turned to
MAR, but it should switch off after a few seconds.
Low brake fluid level
The warning light switches on when the brake fluid in
the reservoir falls below the minimum level, possibly due
to a leak in the circuit.Restore the brake fluid level, then check that the
warning light has switched off.
If the warning light turns on when travelling (on certain
versions together with the message on the display) stop
the vehicle immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
Handbrake engaged
The warning light switches on when the handbrake is
engaged.Release the handbrake, then check that the warning
light has switched off.
If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership.

may suddenly lock and the vehicle may swerve when
braking sharply.
The display shows the dedicated message.Drive very carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to
have the system inspected immediately.
