IndicationCondition
Selected Gear Position The

selected gear
position is displayed
Recommended Gear Position Shift up or down to
the indicated gear position is
recommended
Note: Do not rely solely on the
shift-up/shift-down recommendations
by indications. The actual driving
situation might require shift operations
different from indication. To avoid the
risk of accidents, the road and traffic
conditions have to be judged correctly
by the driver before shifting. Versions With Manual Transmission
The gear shift indicator turns off when
the following operations are performed:
The vehicle is stopped.
The vehicle is put in neutral.
The vehicle is driven in reverse.
The clutch is not fully engaged when
accelerating from a stop.
The clutch pedal remains pushed
down for 2 seconds or longer while
driving.

recommended shift points:
Gear Vehicle speed
1 to 2 14 mph (23 km/h)
2
to 3 24 mph (39 km/h)
3 to 4 33 mph (53 km/h)

For cruising, these are recommended
shift points:
GearVehicle speed
1to2 7mph(11km/h)
2
to 3 19 mph (31 km/h)
3 to 4 26 mph (42 km/h)
4 to 5 34 mph (55 km/h)
5 to 6 41 mph (66 km/h)
Downshifting
When you must slow down in heavy
traffic or on a steep upgrade, downshift
before the engine starts to overwork.
This reduces the chance of stalling and
gives better acceleration when you
need more speed.
On a steep downgrade, downshifting
helps maintain safe speed and prolongs
brake life.
Manually Shifting Up (Automatic
Transmission)
Using selector lever: to shift up to a
higher gear, tap the selector lever back
+ once.

Oil Life Reset
Versions With Fiat Radio 3.0
“Oil Change” with flexible settings are
available. Consult an Authorized
Dealership for details.
Note:The engine oil flexible
maintenance setting is available (if
equipped). Based on the engine
operating conditions, the on-board
computer in your vehicle calculates the
remaining oil life. When the engine oil
flexible maintenance setting is selected,
the system must be reset whenever
replacing the engine oil regardless of
the wrench indicator light display.
When the engine oil flexible
maintenance setting is selected, the
wrench indicator light will illuminate in
the instrument cluster when remaining
oil life becomes less than 300 miles
(500 km) or remaining days are less
than 15 (whichever comes first).
Reset Method
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine
oil change indicator system. The “Oil
Change Required” message will flash in
the Instrument Cluster Display for
approximately 10 seconds after a single
chime has sounded to indicate the next
scheduled oil change interval. The
engine oil change indicator system is duty cycle based, which means the
engine oil change interval may fluctuate,
dependent upon your personal driving
style.
Unless reset, this message will continue
to display each time you turn the
ignition switch to the ON/RUN position.
To reset the oil change indicator system
(after performing the scheduled
maintenance), refer to the following
procedure
1. Place the ignition in the ON position.
(Do not start the engine.)
2. Fully push the accelerator pedal
slowly, three times within 10 seconds.
3. Place the ignition in the OFF/LOCK
position.
Note:
