READ THIS CAREFULLY!
REFUELLING
Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol
with an octane rating (RON) of no less than
95 conforming to the European specification EN
228.
Diesel engines: only use diesel fuel for motor
vehicles conforming to the European specification
EN 590. The use of other products or mixtures
may damage the engine beyond repair and
consequently invalidate the warranty, depending
on the damage caused.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Petrol engines: make sure that the handbrake is
engaged, set the gearshift lever to neutral, fully
depress the clutch without pressing the
accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVV
and release it as soon as the engine has started.
Diesel engines: Turn the ignition key to MAR and
wait for the warning light
to go out. Turn
the ignition key to AVV and release as soon as
the engine starts.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high
temperatures during operation. Do not park the
vehicle on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or
other flammable material as this constitutes a fire
hazard.RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is fitted with a system that allows
continuous diagnosis of the emission-related
components in order to help protect the
environment.
ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the vehicle, you decide to add
electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually
draining the battery), visit a Fiat Dealership. They
can calculate the overall electrical requirement
and check that the electrical system of the
vehicle can support the required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance is essential for ensuring the
vehicle stays in tip-top condition and retains its
safety features, its environmental friendliness and
low running costs for a long time to come.
THE OWNER'S HANDBOOK CONTAINS…
... important information, advise and warnings for
correct use, driving safety and maintenance of
your vehicle over time. Particular attention
should be paid to information marked with the
following symbols:
(personal safety),(environmental protection),(car integrity).

ALARM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The alarm, in addition to all the previously described
remote control functions, is controlled by the
receiver located under the dashboard near the fuse
box.
ALARM TRIPPING
The alarm trips in the following cases:
unauthorised opening of a door, the bonnet, the
tailgate or a sliding side door (if present)
(perimeter protection)
unauthorized operation of the starting device (key
turned on using a key that is not enabled)
cutting of the battery leads
moving presence inside the passenger
compartment (volumetric protection)
anomalous lifting/tilting of the vehicle.
Depending on the market, the activation of the alarm
causes the activation of the siren and the direction
indicators (for about 26 seconds). Alarm tripping and
the number of cycles depend on the sales market.
There are a maximum number of acoustic/visual
cycles. When this is reached the system returns to
normal operation.
Volumetric and antilifting protections are disabled by
pressing the control button installed on the front
dashboard (see paragraph "Antilift protections).IMPORTANT The engine immobilizer function is
ensured by the Fiat CODE which is automatically
activated when the key is extracted from the ignition.
TURNING THE ALARM ON
With the doors and bonnet closed and the ignition
key either turned to STOP or removed, point the
key with the remote control towards the vehicle and
press and release button
.
Except for some markets, the system produces an
acoustic warning (beep) and enables door locking.
A self-diagnostic stage precedes the turning on of the
alarm: if a fault is detected, the system produces
another acoustic signal.
In this case switch off the alarm by pressing
,
check that all the doors, bonnet and tailgate are
closed correctly; then switch the alarm back on by
pressing
.
If a door or the bonnet is not properly shut, it will
be excluded from the testing by the alarm system.
A fault has occurred in system operation if the alarm
produces an acoustic signal even when the doors,
bonnet and boot are correctly closed. Go to a
Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT The alarm does not come on when the
central locking is activated using the metal insert in
the key.
IMPORTANT The alarm is configured to comply with
the regulations existing in different countries.

IMPORTANT The needle will point to E and warning
light A will flash to indicate a fault in the system. If
this is the case, go to a Fiat Dealership to have
the system checked.
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
INDICATOR
This shows the temperature of the engine coolant
fluid and starts working when the fluid temperature
exceeds approx. 50°C. In normal use, the needle
could assume different positions within the scale,
depending on the usage conditions.
C - Low engine coolant temperature.
H - High engine coolant temperature.
Warning light B fig. 14 may switch on (together with
a message on the display) to indicate that the coolant
temperature is too high; in this case, stop the engine
and contact a Fiat Dealership.If the needle for the engine coolant
temperature reaches the red area, stop
the engine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.

WARNING
The HBA system cannot overrule the
natural laws of physics, and cannot
increase the grip available according to the
condition of the road.
WARNING
The HBA system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due
to excessive speed on corners, driving on
low-grip surfaces or aquaplaning.
WARNING
The capability of the HBA must never
be tested irresponsibly and dangerously,
in such a way as to compromise personal safety
and the safety of others.
iTPMS System (indirect Tyre
Pressure Monitoring System)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring System iTPMS
can monitor the tyre inflation status through the
wheel speed sensors. The system warns the driver if
one or more tyres are flat by switching on the
warning light on the instrument panel and
a warning message on the display, along with an
acoustic signal.
If one tyre only is flat, the system can indicate its
position: it is in any case recommended to check the
pressure on all four tyres. This indication is displayed
also when turning the engine off and on until the
“Reset” procedure is carried out.
“Reset” procedure
The iTPMS needs an initial "self-learning" phase (with
length depending on the driving style and road
conditions: optimal conditions being driving on a
straight road at 80 km/h for at least 20 minutes)
which starts when the “Reset” procedure is carried
out.
The “Reset” procedure must be carried out:
each time tyre pressure is modified;
when even only one tyre is changed;
when tyres are rotated/inverted;

EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis)
allows continuous diagnosis of emission-related
components on the vehicle.
It also alerts the driver, by turning on instrument
panel warning light
(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 aim of the system is to:
monitor system efficiency;
warn about increased emissions due to a vehicle
malfunction;
to warn of the need to replace deteriorated
components.
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 police.
IMPORTANT After resolving the problem, to check
the system completely, Fiat Dealerships are obliged
to run a bench test and, if necessary, road tests
which may call for a long journey.
WARNING
Go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible if warning light
either does
not light up when the key is turned to MAR to if
while travelling the warning lights comes on
either steady or blinking (along with a message
on the display).The operation of warning light
may be checked by the traffic police using
specific devices. Follow the laws in force in
the country where you are driving.

WARNING
On cars with side bags, do not cover the
front seat backrests with extra covers.
WARNING
Do not travel carrying objects in your
lap, in front of your chest or between
your lips (pipe, pencils, etc .): they could cause
severe injur y if the airbag is deployed.
WARNING
If the ignition device is at MAR, even if
the engine is switched off, airbags may
be deployed when the vehicle is stationary and
hit by another vehicle.Therefore, even if the
car is stationar y, when an active front passenger
airbag is fitted, DO NOT install rear facing
child restraint systems on the front passenger
seat . Deployment of the airbag following an
impact could cause fatal injuries to the child.
Therefore, always deactivate the passenger side
airbag when a rearward facing child restraint
system is installed on the front passenger seat .
The front passenger seat must also be
positioned back as far as possible in order to
prevent the child restraint system from coming
into contact with the dashboard. Immediately
reactivate the passenger airbag as soon as
the child restraint system has been removed.
Also remember that , if the ignition device is set
to STOP, none of the safety devices (airbags
or pretensioners) will be deployed in the event
of collision. Non-deployment in such cases
does not indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
Have the airbag system checked by a
Fiat Dealership if the car was stolen, if
theft was attempted, or if the car was subjected
to vandalism or flooding.
