chapter);
the engine coolant liquid temperature
is not sufficient;
the anti-particulate filter automatic
regeneration is underway;
Or:
the instrument panel warning light
turns on to indicate that the engine
cannot be put in standby.
NOTES:To refuel, the engine must be
turned off (and not in stand-by): you
must stop the engine (refer to the
"Starting the engine” paragraph in the
“Starting and driving” chapter):
RESTARTING
CONDITIONS
In some cases, the engine can restart
without any intervention to guarantee
safety and ideal comfort. This can be
confirmed when:
the outside temperature is too low or
too high (lower than 0°C or over 30°C);
the MAX DEF function is activated
(refer to the "Air conditioning"
paragraph in the "Knowing your vehicle”
chapter);
the battery not sufficiently charged;
the vehicle speed is higher than
5 km/h (going downhill, etc.);
repeated pressure on the brake
pedal or need to use the braking
system;
Vehicles with remote control
Some of these conditions prevent
automatic engine restart when opening:
one of the doors (for vehicles with a
key);
the passenger door (for vehicles with
an electronic key).
IRREGULAR OPERATION
When the appropriate message
appears on the instrument panel, along
with the integrated light 2 in button 1
fig. 65, the system is deactivated.
Contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
29)In case of an emergency stop, the
engine could restart by pressing the clutch
pedal if the Start&Stop function is
activated.
IMPORTANT
2)Do not drive when the engine is in
standby (the warning lighton the
instrument panel turns on).
3)When the engine in stand-by, the power
steering is deactivated.4)If you leave the vehicle, there is an
acoustic warning that the engine is in
stand-by mode (it is not off). Before getting
out of the vehicle, you must disengage the
starter device (refer to the "Starter switch”
paragraph in the “Knowing your vehicle”
chapter).

the MAX DEF function is activated
(refer to the "Air conditioning"

Vehicles with additional heater
Some vehicles are equipped with an
additional heater that heats the
passenger compartment more quickly.
This device functions only with the
engine on and at low temperatures.
When functioning, a bit of smoke
issuing from the right side of the
vehicle, coming from the heat exhaust
system, is normal.
Irregular operation
Generally speaking, if you notice any
operational irregularity, please see a Fiat
Dealer.
Limited effectiveness of defrosting,
de-misting or air conditioning can be
due to a clogged cabin filter cartridge.
Cold air is not generated. Check the
position of the controls and condition of
the fuses. Otherwise, turn the system
off.
Water beneath the vehicle
After prolonged use of air conditioning,
it is normal to find water under it due to
condensation.

PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
Temperature of the exhaust gases
The system controlling the exhaust lets
you identify the malfunctions of the
vehicle's anti-pollution device. These
faults can cause an excess in polluting
emissions and cause mechanical
damage.
This warning light on the instrument
panel indicates any system function
failure:
If it stays on, contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible;
If it flashes, you need to reduce the
engine running until the flashing stops.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
Refer to the information in the "AdBblue
additive tank" paragraph in the
"Knowing your vehicle" chapter.
The vehicle was designed with
environmental friendliness in mind for its
entire life cycle: from manufacture to
use up to the end of its life cycle. This
commitment is demonstrated by the
writing eco
2.Manufacture
The vehicle's manufacture has been
carried out at an industrial factory that
applies advanced procedures aimed at
environmental impact reduction with
respect to the inhabitants and nature in
the surrounding areas (reduction of
water and power consumption,
atmospheric and water emissions,
disposal and evaluation of waste.
Emissions
While it is being used, the vehicle was
designed to emit a lower quantity of
greenhouse gasses (CO
2) and
therefore lower consumption (ex.:
170 g/km amounts to 6.4 l/100 km for
a Diesel vehicle).
Moreover, the vehicles are equipped
with anti-pollution systems such as the
catalytic exhaust, oxygen sensor, etc.
For some vehicles, this system is
rounded out with an anti-particulate
filter that allows a reduction in particle
emissions.
Used and replaced parts on sale during
regular servicing (battery, oil filter, air
filter, batteries, etc.) and oil tanks (both
empty and full of used oil) must be
delivered to specialised waste disposal
consortiums.To hand the vehicle over at the end of
its life without extra cost, contact one of
our dealerships if you are purchasing
another vehicle or an FCA-authorised
collection and scrapping centre. These
centres have been carefully chosen to
offer high quality service for the
collection, treatment and recycling of
vehicles at their end of life, respecting
the surrounding environment.
Recyclability
The vehicle is 85% recyclable and 95%
recoverable.
To achieve these aims, several of the
vehicle's parts have been designed so
they can be recycled. The structure and
materials have been especially studied
to facilitate dismantling of these
components and their re-treatment in
specific chains.
In order to preserve raw material
resources, the vehicle incorporates
several parts in recycled plastic or
renewable materials (plant or animal like
cotton or wool).

DIESEL VERSION
PARTICULARITIES
17)
Engine speed
Diesel engines are equipped with an
injection system that does not let the
engine exceed a certain number of
revs, no matter what gear is engaged.
If you see the message "Anti-pollution
control" with the warning light
and
the alarm light, contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately.
While driving, depending on the fuel
type used, in exceptional cases the
vehicle might emit white smoke.
This is due to the automatic
regeneration of the anti-particulate filter
and has no consequences on the
vehicle's performance.
Complete lack of fuel
When refuelling after completely using
up all fuel, you need to restore the fuel
circuit: refer to the "Refuelling the
vehicle" paragraph before restarting the
engine.Winter precautions
To prevent any ice-related
inconvenience:
make sure that the battery is always
charged,
make sure not to leave too little
diesel in the tank, so it doesn't form
water vapour condensation that
accumulates on the bottom of the tank.
IMPORTANT
17)Modifications or repairs to the supply
system that are not carried out correctly or
do not take the system technical
specifications into account can cause
malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.

SERVICING
PROCEDURES
The vehicle respects the recycling
criteria and scrapped vehicle
assessment that will become law in
2016.
Therefore, some of the vehicle’s
components are designed with their
ultimate recycling in mind.
These components can easily be
disassembled to be recovered and
reused in the recycling industry.
Moreover, thanks to its advanced
design, its original setup and its modest
fuel consumption, the vehicle complies
with the anti-pollution regulations in
force. We are actively committed to
reducing polluting gases and saving
energy. But the level of polluting gas
emissions and vehicle consumption
also depend on you. Take care to use
and service your vehicle correctly.
Keep in mind that lack of respect for
anti-pollution laws can expose the
vehicle's owner to administrative
sanctions. Moreover, replacing engine,
fuel system and exhaust parts with
other non-original ones voids the
vehicle's compliance with the
anti-pollution regulations.

ENGINE REGISTRATION
The air filter, oil filter: a dirty cartridge
reduces performance. You need to
replace it.
Minimum: no adjustment is needed.
CHECKING LEVELS
ENGINE OIL
An engine normally consumes oil to
lubricate it and cool the moving parts,
and it is normal to have to top up the
lubricating circuit between two oil
changes.
However, if the oil consumption is more
than 0.5 litres every 1000 km after the
run-in period, you need to contact a
Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Periodically check the oil
level and in any case before long trips,
otherwise you risk damaging the
engine.

Oil level check
The oil level should be checked with the
vehicle on a flat surface and the engine
stopped and cold.
To know the oil level exactly and to
make sure it has not exceeded the
maximum level (risk of damaging the
engine), you need to use the dipstick.The instrument panel display only
warns you when the level is at
minimum.
take out the dipstick and clean it with
a clean rag;
insert it as far as it will go;
take it back out;
check the level: it must never be
lower than "min" A fig. 265 nor above
the "max" level B.
Once you have checked the level, insert
the dipstick as far as it will go.
IMPORTANT To avoid splashing, you
can use a funnel when topping up/filling
up.
Topping up/filling the oil
The vehicle has to be on a level surface,
engine stopped and cold (e.g.: before
starting in the morning).

44)In any case, you should not exceed the
maximum filling level: you risk damaging the
engine and catalytic converter. If the
maximum level is exceeded, do not start
the engine: please see a Fiat Dealership.
45)Be careful not to confuse the various
types of fluids while topping up: they are
not compatible with each other! Topping up
with an unsuitable fluid could severely
damage the vehicle.
46)The oil level must never exceed the
MAX. mark.
47)Always top up using engine oil of the
same specifications as that already in the
engine.
48)PARAFLU UP protective anti-freeze is
used in the engine cooling system. Use
fluid of the same type as that contained in
the cooling system for any top-ups.
PARAFLU UP fluid cannot be mixed with
any other type of fluid. If this happens, do
not start the engine under any
circumstances and contact a Fiat
Dealership.49)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
