USE OF THE OWNER HANDBOOK
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Each time direction instructions (left/right or forwards/backwards) about the vehicle are given, these must be intended as
regarding an occupant in the driver's seat. Special cases not complying with this rule will be properly specified in the text.
The figures in the Owner Handbook are provided by way of example only: this might imply that some details of the image do
not correspond to the actual arrangement of your vehicle. In addition, the Handbook has been conceived considering vehicles
with steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore possible that on vehicles with steering wheel on the right side, some controls
position or construction is not exactly mirror-like with respect to the figure.
To identify the chapter with the information needed you can consult the index at the end of this Owner Handbook .
Chapters can be rapidly identified with dedicated graphic tabs, at the side of each odd page. A few pages further there is a key
for getting to know the chapter order and the relevant symbols in the tabs. There is anyway a textual indication of the current
chapter at the side of each even page.
Abbreviations used in this Owner Handbook:
LHD— Left-Hand Drive
RHD— Right-Hand Drive
M/T— Manual Transmission
A/T— Automatic Transmission
This manual explains operation of LHD ans RHD vehicles. Illustrations represent LHD operation. Depending on the item,
however, RHD illustrations may also appear.

VEHICLE CHANGES / ALTERATIONS
IMPORTANT
Any change or alteration of the vehicle might seriously affect its safety and road holding, thus causing accidents, in which the
occupants could even be fatally injured.
ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER
If after buying the vehicle, you decide to install electrical accessories that require a permanent electrical supply (e.g. radio,
satellite anti-theft system, etc.) or accessories that in any case burden the electrical supply, contact a Fiat Dealership, whose
personnel will check whether the vehicles's electrical system is able to withstand the load required, or whether it needs to be
integrated with a more powerful battery.
IMPORTANT Take care when fitting additional spoilers, alloy wheels or non-standard wheel hubs: they could reduce the
ventilation of the brakes and affect efficiency under sharp, repeated braking or on long descents. Make sure that nothing
obstructs the pedal stroke (mats, etc.).
INSTALLING ELECTRICAL / ELECTRONIC DEVICES
Electrical and electronic devices installed after buying the vehicle in the context of after-sales service must carry the following
label: FCA Italy S.p.A. authorises the installation of transceivers provided that installation is carried out at a specialised
centre, in a workmanlike fashion and in compliance with manufacturer's specifications.
Traffic police may not allow the vehicle on the road if devices have been installed which modify the features of the vehicle. This
may also cause invalidation of warranty in relation to faults caused by the change either directly or indirectly related to it.
FCA Italy S.p.A. shall not be liable for damage caused by the installation of accessories either not supplied or recommended by
FCA Italy S.p.A. and not installed in compliance with the provided instructions.
RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND MOBILE PHONES
Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones, CB radios, amateur radio etc.) cannot be used inside the vehicle unless a
separate aerial is mounted externally. Transmission and reception of these devices may be affected by the shielding effect of the
vehicle body. As far as the use of EC-approved mobile phones is concerned (GSM, GPRS, UMTS, LTE), follow the usage
instructions provided by the mobile phone Manufacturer. The use of these devices inside the passenger compartment (without
an external aerial) may cause the electrical systems to malfunction. This could compromise the safety of the vehicle in addition
to constituting a potential hazard for passengers' health. If mobile phones/laptops/smartphones/tablets are inside the vehicle
and/or close to the electronic key, a reduced performance of the Passive Entry/Keyless Entry-N-Go system may occur.

WARNING
1)When carrying a key on flights, do not
press any switches on the key while on the
plane. If a switch is pressed on the plane,
the key emits electromagnetic waves,
which could adversely affect the plane’s
flight operation. When carrying a key in a
bag, be careful that no switches on the key
can be easily pressed by mistake.2)Don’t make any alterations or additions
to the immobilizer system; alterations or
additions could cause failure of the
immobilizer.
3)When the key case is opened, be careful
to keep water, dust, etc. out. Also, do not
touch the internal components.4)People with implantable cardiac
pacemakers or implantable cardiovascular-
defibrillators should not go near the exterior
transmitters (A) or the interior transmitters
(B). The radio waves used by the keyless
operation system could adversely affect
implantable cardiac pacemakers or
implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

5)When using electro-medical devices
other than implantable cardiac pacemakers
or implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators,
contact the electro-medical device
manufacturer ahead of time to determine
the adverse effects of radio waves on the
devices. Electro-medical device operations
could be affected by radio waves.
IMPORTANT
1)Used batteries are harmful to the
environment. You can dispose of them
either in the correct containers as specified
by law or by taking them to a Fiat
Dealership, which will deal with their
disposal.
