86)Do not carry unnecessary objects on
the flatbed. Particularly if the vehicle is
driven in cities, where frequent stopping
and starting is necessary, supplementary
loads on the vehicle may have major
repercussions on fuel consumption.
Furthermore, do not travel with
unnecessary luggage, loads etc. on the
roof: the increased air resistance will
increase fuel consumption.
87)Using a lower gear when travelling with
heavy loads will improve vehicle
performance and extend the life of the
gearbox, limiting gear shifts and
overheating. This action ensures better
exhaust braking.
88)All precautions must be adopted to
prevent danger to other road users if the
load protrudes beyond the contour of the
vehicle. The rear and side protrusion must
be indicated according to the laws in force
in the country. The load must not
compromise stability of the vehicle or cover
lights, visual indicators or identifying plates.
Poles, bars and similar loads which are
difficult to see arranged horizontally must
not protrude beyond the contour of the
vehicle.TRAILER TOWING
In order to tow a trailer with your
vehicle, when having a trailer towing
device mounted that meets all relevant
regulations in your area, consult a Fiat
Dealership.
Check that your towbar coupling ball
does not obscure your vehicle’s licence
plate when the trailer or caravan is
disconnected. If it obscures the licence
plate, please remove the towbar
coupling ball. And if the towbar
coupling ball is lockable by using a key
or any kind of tools, please remove the
coupling ball and use a towbar coupling
ball which can be removed or
repositioned without the use of a key or
any kind of tools instead.
The regulations concerning the towing
of a trailer may differ from country to
country. You are advised to obey the
regulations in each area.
NOTE If you are going to tow a trailer,
pay careful attention to the following
points.
89)
Maximum towable weight with
brake and maximum trailernose
weight
Never exceed the maximum towable
weight with brake and the maximum
trailer-nose weight as listed in the
specifications. (Refer to “Vehicle
weight”.
If you tow a trailer at an altitude of more
than 1,000 m above sea-level, reduce
your weight by 10 % of the gross
combination weight for every increase
of 1,000 m above sea-level, as the
engine output is lowered owing to
decrease in atmospheric pressure.

Warning lamps What it means
SRS warning lamp
There is a supplemental restraint system (“SRS”) warning lamp on the instrument panel. The system
checks itself every time the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in
ON. The SRS warning lamp will come on for several seconds and then go out. This is normal and
means the system is working properly.
If there is a problem involving one or more of the SRS components, the warning lamp will come on and
stay on.
The SRS warning lamp is shared by the SRS airbag and the seat belt pre-tensioner system.
On vehicles equipped with the ERA-GLONASS, if the ERA-GLONASS system operates, the SRS
warning lamp illuminates.
58) 59)
ABS warning lamp (where provided)
If there is a malfunction in the system, the ABS warning lamp will come on. Under normal conditions, the
ABS warning lamp comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation
mode is put in ON and goes off a few seconds later.
NOTE: On vehicles with the rear differential lock and the Electronic Stability Control (ESC), the ESC and
ABS functions are suspended while the rear differential lock is activated. ESC indicator lamp, ESC OFF
indicator lamp and ABS warning lamp are illuminated while these functions are suspended. It does not
indicate a problem. When the rear differential lock is disengaged, these lamps go out and function again.
Refer to “ESC indicator lamp, ESC OFF indicator lamp”.
If only the ABS warning lamp illuminates:
Avoid hard braking and high-speed driving. Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
Restart the engine and check to see whether the lamp goes out after a few minutes driving; if it then
remains off during driving, there is no problem.
However, if the warning lamp do not disappear, or if they come on again when the vehicle is driven, we
recommend you to have the vehicle checked as soon as possible.
If the ABS warning lamp and brake warning lamp illuminate at the same time:
The ABS and brake force distribution function may not work, so hard braking could make the vehicle
unstable.
Avoid hard braking and high-speed driving.
Stop the vehicle in a safe place and we recommend you to have the vehicle checked.

WARNING
115)In the following situations, brake
performance may be compromised or the
vehicle may become unstable if brakes are
applied suddenly; consequently, avoid
driving at high speeds or applying the
brakes suddenly. Furthermore, immediately
the vehicle should be brought to a stop in a
safe location and we recommend you to
have it checked. 1 – The brake warning
lamp does not illuminate when the parking
brake is applied or does not turn off when
the parking brake is released.2–The
brake warning lamp and the ABS warning
lamp illuminate at the same time. For
details, refer to “ABS warning lamp”. 3 –
The brake warning lamp remains
illuminated while driving.
116)The vehicle should be brought to a
halt in the following manner when brake
performance has deteriorated. 1 – Depress
the brake pedal harder than usual. Even if
the brake pedal moves down to the very
end of its possible stroke, keep it pressed
down hard. 2 – Should the brakes fail, use
engine braking to reduce your speed and
carefully pull the parking brake lever.
Depress the brake pedal to operate the
stop lamp to alert the vehicles behind you.
IMPORTANT
46)This warning lightwill flash after
starting or during prolonged cranking to
indicate a fault with the glow plug heating
system. If the engine starts, the vehicle can
be used as normal, but a Fiat Dealership
must be contacted as soon as possible.
47)If the diesel preheat indicator lamp
comes on after the engine is started, the
engine speed may not rise above the idling
speed because of fuel freezing. In this case,
keep the engine idling for about
10 minutes, then turn off the ignition switch
or put in OFF the operation mode, and
immediately turn it on or put in ON again to
confirm that the diesel preheat indicator
lamp is off.
48)When this indicator lamp blinks,
electronic stability control function or active
traction control function is operating, which
means that the road is slippery or that your
vehicle’s wheels are beginning to slip. If this
happens, drive slower with less accelerator
input.49)If an abnormal condition occurs in the
system while driving, the
indicator lamp
will illuminate. In these cases, follow these
procedures:1–Ifthetemperature in the
braking system continues to increase due
to continuous brake control on a slippery
road surface, the
indicator lamp will
blink, and operation of the active traction
control function will be suspended to
protect the brake system (the engine
control of the traction control function and
normal brake operation will not be
affected.) Park your vehicle in a safe place.
When the temperature in the braking
system has come down, the indicator lamp
will go off and the electronic stability control
function and active traction control function
will start operating again.2–Ifthe
indicator lamp does not go out even
through the above procedure is followed,
there could be a problem in the system.
Stop the engine and start the engine again
and check whether the
indicator lamp
goes out. If the indicator lamp goes out,
there is no abnormal condition.3–Ifthe
indicator lamp illuminates even after
your vehicle is driven a short distance after
re-starting the engine, we recommend you
to have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible.
50)Prolonged driving with this lamp on
may cause further damage to the emission
control system. It could also affect fuel
economy and drivability.
51)If the lamp does not illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position or the operation mode is put in
ON, we recommend you to have the
system checked.

Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
(where provided)
The anti-lock brake system (ABS) helps
prevent the wheels from locking up
when braking. This helps maintain
vehicle drivability and steering wheel
handling.
Driving hints
Always keep a safe distance from the
vehicle in front of you. Even if your
vehicle is equipped with the ABS, leave
a greater braking distance when:
Driving on gravel or snow-covered
roads.
Driving with tyre chains installed.
Driving on roads where the road
surface is pitted or has other
differences in surface height.
Driving on uneven road surfaces.
Operation of ABS is not restricted
situations where brakes are applied
suddenly. This system may also prevent
the wheels from locking when you drive
over manholes, steel roadwork plates,
road markings, or any uneven road
surface.
When the ABS is in use, you may feel
the brake pedal pulsation and the
vibrations of the vehicle body and
steering wheel. It may also feel as if the
pedal resists being pressed.In this situation, simply hold the brake
pedal down firmly. Do not pump the
brake, which will result in reduced
braking performance.
An operation noise is emitted from the
engine compartment or feel a shock
from the brake pedal when start driving
immediately after starting the engine.
These are normal sound or operation
that the ABS makes when performing a
self-check. It does not indicate a
malfunction.
The ABS can be used after the vehicle
has reached a speed over
approximately 10 km/h. It stops
working when the vehicle slows below
7 km/h.

After driving on icy roads
After driving on snow or icy roads,
remove any snow and ice which may
have be left around the wheels. On
vehicles that have an ABS, be careful
not to damage the wheel speed
sensors (A) or the cables located at
each wheel.Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
(where provided)
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
takes overall control of the anti-lock
brake system, traction control function
and active stability control function to
help maintain the vehicle’s control and
traction. Please read this section in
conjunction with the page on the
anti-lock brake system, traction control
function and electronic stability control
function.
211) 212) 213) 214)
NOTE An operation noise may be
emitted from the engine compartment
in the following situations. The sound is
associated with checking the
operations of the ESC. At this time, you
may feel a shock from the brake pedal if
you depress it. These do not indicate a
malfunction:
