material: fire hazard.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is fitted with a system that carries out a continuous diagnosis of the emission-related components in order to help protect the
environment.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

DISPLAY
DESCRIPTION
The vehicle is equipped with a display
that can show useful information to the
driver while driving.
With the ignition device in STOP
position and ignition key removed, the
display lights up and shows the time
and total odometer reading (in km or
miles) for a few seconds when a door is
opened/closed.
GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
The Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) system
advises the driver to change gear
through a special indication on the
display.
Through the GSI, the driver is informed
that the gear change will allow a
reduction in fuel consumption.
When the
symbol appears on the
display, the GSI suggests switching to a
higher gear, while when the
symbol
is displayed, the GSI suggests
changing to a lower gear.
The indication in the display remains
until a gear is shifted or the driving
conditions go back to a situation where
gearshifting is not required to improve
consumption.
RECONFIGURABLE
MULTIFUNCTION
DISPLAY
The display fig. 50 will show the
following information:
1: headlight alignment position,
indication of the gear engaged,
indication of the gear change
suggestion (GSI), outside temperature,
compass (where present), date.
2: vehicle speed, warning
messages/any failure indications
3: total kilometres (or miles) run and
symbols of any failure indications.
CONTROL BUTTONS
These are located on the left side of the
steering wheel fig. 51.
They allow the driver to select and
interact with the items in the Main menu
of the display (see paragraph "Main
menu").

TRIP COMPUTER
The "Trip computer" is used to display
information on vehicle operation when
the ignition device is at MAR.
This function has two separate
memories, called “Trip A” and “Trip B”,
where the trip data are recorded
separately from each other.
Both memories can be reset.
“Trip A” and “Trip B” are used to display
the values relating to:
Autonomy
Instant consumption
Distance (distance travelled)
Average fuel consumption
Average speed
Trip time (driving time)
NOTE The displayed data can change
based on the vehicle version.
To reset the values, press and hold
down theOKbutton on the steering
wheel fig. 52.NOTE “Range” and “Instantaneous fuel
consumption" parameters cannot be
reset.

Warning light What it means
iTPMS
iTPMS failure/iTPMS temporarily deactivated
The warning light flashes for about 75 seconds and then stays on constantly (together with a message on
the display) to indicate that the system is temporarily deactivated or faulty. The system will go back to
normal operation when the operating conditions will allow it. If this is not the case, carry out the “Reset”
procedure after restoring the normal operating conditions.
If the malfunction warning persists, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
Tyre pressure low
The warning light switches on constantly to indicate that the pressure of one or more tyres is lower than
the recommended value and/or that slow pressure loss is occurring. In these cases, optimal tyre duration
and fuel consumption may not be guaranteed. It is advisable to restore the correct pressure value (see the
"Wheels" paragraph in the "Technical specifications" section). Once the normal operating conditions of
the vehicle are restored, carry out the "Reset" procedure.
WARNING Do not continue driving with one or more flat tyres as the car handling may be compromised.
Stop the vehicle, avoiding sharp braking and steering.
ABS FAILURE
The warning light switches on to indicate an ABS fault. In this case the braking system maintains its
efficiency unaltered but without the advantage of the ABS system. Drive carefully and contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
ESC SYSTEM
ESC system activation
Intervention by the system is indicated by the flashing of the warning light: it indicates that the car is in
critical stability and grip conditions.
ESC system failure
If the warning light does not switch off, or if it stays on with the engine running, a failure was found on the
ESC system. Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
Hill Hold Control system failure
The warning light turns on to indicate a Hill Holder Control system failure. Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon
as possible.

Warning light What it means
GLOW PLUG PREHEATING (Diesel versions)
This warning light comes on when the ignition device is brought to MAR and will switch off when the glow
plugs have reached the preset temperature. The engine can be started as soon as the warning light
switches off.
IMPORTANT In mild or high temperature conditions, the warning light comes on for a very short time only.
GLOW PLUG PREHEATING FAILURE (Diesel versions)
The warning light will flash to indicate a failure in the glow plug preheating system. In this case, contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

Symbol What it means
ENGINE OIL DETERIORATED
(where provided)
Diesel versions: the symbol turns on and is displayed for 3 minute cycles and intervals of 5
seconds until the oil is changed.
The symbol is displayed until the problem is solved.
Petrol versions: the symbol switches on and then is not displayed when the display cycle is
completed.
IMPORTANT After the first indication, each time the engine is started the symbol will continue
to switch on as described above until the oil is changed.
If the symbol flashes, this does not mean that there is a fault on the vehicle, rather it simply
reports that it is now necessary to change the oil as a result of regular use of the vehicle.
The deterioration of engine oil is accelerated by using the vehicle for short drives, preventing
the engine from reaching operating temperature.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

RAIN SENSOR FAILURE
The symbol switches on in the case of failure of the rain sensor. Contact a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible.

section in the "In an emergency" chapter. If it is still not possible to restore the fuel supply,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
