72)A child may tamper with the switch at
the risk of its hands or head being trapped
in the window.
73)When driving with a child in the vehicle,
please press the window lock switch to
disable the passenger’s switches.
74)If the battery terminals are
disconnected or the fuse for electric
window is replaced, the safety mechanism
will be cancelled. If a hand or head got
trapped, a serious injury could result.
75)The safety mechanism is cancelled just
before the window is fully closed. This
allows the window to close completely.
Therefore be especially careful that no
fingers are trapped in the window.
76)The safety mechanism is deactivated
while the switch is pulled up. Therefore be
especially careful that fingers are not
trapped in the door window opening.CATALYTIC
CONVERTER
The exhaust gas scavenging devices
used with catalytic converter are
extremely efficient for the reduction of
noxious gases. The catalytic converter
is installed in the exhaust system.
It is important to keep the engine
properly tuned to ensure proper catalyst
operation and prevent possible catalyst
damage.
77)
NOTE Use fuel of the type
recommended in “Fuel selection”.
WARNING
77)As with any vehicle, do not park or
operate this vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry grass or
leaves can come in contact with a hot
exhaust since a fire could occur.
DIESEL
PARTICULATE
FILTER (DPF)
(where provided)
The diesel particulate filter (DPF) is a
device that captures most of the
particulate matter (PM) in the exhaust
emissions of the diesel engine. The DPF
automatically burns away trapped PM
during vehicle operation. Under certain
driving conditions, however, the DPF is
not able to burn away all of the trapped
PM and, as a result, an excessive
amount of PM accumulates inside it.
78)
27)
NOTE To minimize the likelihood of
excessive accumulation of PM, try to
avoid driving for long periods at low
speeds and repeatedly driving short
distances and try to keep high engine
speed driving as much as possible.
NOTE The engine sounds slightly
different from usual while the DPF
automatically burns away trapped PM.
The change in the engine sound does
not indicate a fault.
DPF warning lamp
The DPF warning lamp comes on in the
event of an abnormality in the DPF
system.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Type 3
1. Open the cover (1). Insert the key in
the cap (2) and unlock it.
2. Turn the cap and remove it.
109)
3. Insert the gun in the tank port as far
as it goes.
4. When the gun stops automatically,
do not fill with fuel any more.5. To close, turn the fuel cap slowly
clockwise until you hear clicking
sounds, then gently push the fuel tank
filler door closed.
WARNING
98)When handling fuel, comply with the
safety regulations displayed by garages
and filling stations.
99)Fuel is highly flammable and explosive.
You could be burned or seriously injured
when handling it. When refueling your
vehicle, always turn the engine off and
keep away from flames, sparks and
smoking materials. Always handle fuel in
well ventilated outdoor areas.
100)Before removing the fuel cap, be sure
to get rid of your body’s static electricity by
touching a metal part of the vehicle or fuel
pump. Any static electricity on your body
could create a spark that ignites fuel vapor.
101)Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, removing
the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do not let
any other person come near the fuel tank
filler. If you allowed a person to help you
and that person was carrying static
electricity, fuel vapor could be ignited.
102)Do not move away from the fuel tank
filler until refueling is finished. If you moved
away and did something else (for example,
sitting on a seat) part-way through the
refueling process, you could pick up a
fresh charge of static electricity.
103)Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor.
Fuel contains toxic substances.104)Keep the doors and windows closed
while refueling the vehicle. If they were
open, fuel vapor could get into the cabin.
105)If the fuel cap must be replaced, use
only a Fiat genuine part.
106)Since the fuel system may be under
pressure, remove the fuel cap slowly. This
relieves any pressure or vacuum that might
have built up in the fuel tank. If you hear a
hissing sound, wait until it stops before
removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may
spray out, injuring you or others.
107)Do not apply any object/plug to the
end of the filler which is not provided for
the car. The use of non-compliant
objects/plugs could cause a pressure
increase inside the tank, resulting in
dangerous situations.
108)Do not use a mobile phone near the
refuelling pump: risk of fire.
109)Do not tilt the gun.

Only when the ignition switch or the
operation mode is under the following
conditions, the airbags will operate.
Except for vehicles equipped with the
keyless operation system: the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START”
position.
Vehicles equipped with the keyless
operation system: the operation mode
is in ON.
When the airbag control unit detects
rollover of the vehicle, curtain airbags
will be deployed (if so equipped).
The airbags deployment produces a
sudden, loud noise, and releases some
smoke and powder, but these
conditions are not injurious, and do not
indicate a fire in the vehicle. People with
respiratory problems may feel some
temporary irritation from chemicals
used to produce the deployment; open
the windows after airbag deployment, if
safe to do so.
The airbags deflate very rapidly after
deployment, so there is little danger of
obscured vision.

The label shown here is attached on
vehicles with front passenger’s airbag.
174)
NOTE The labels may be in different
positions depending on the vehicle
model.
Front passenger’s airbag ON OFF
switch (Club cab and Double cab)
The front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch can be used to disable the front
passenger’s airbag. If you have a child
restraint system that cannot be fitted to
any seat other than the front passenger
seat, be sure to turn OFF the front
passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch
before using it. Refer to “To turn an
airbag off”.
Front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch is located as shown in the

SAFETY
178)Do not set anything on, or attach
anything to, the instrument panel above the
glove box. It might strike and injure an
occupant if the airbag inflates.
179)Do not attach accessories to, or put
them in front of, the windscreen. These
objects could restrict the airbag inflation, or
strike and injure an occupant if the airbags
inflate.
180)Do not attach additional keys or
accessories (hard, pointed or heavy
objects) to the ignition key. Such objects
could prevent the driver’s knee airbag from
inflating normally or could be propelled to
cause serious injury if the airbag inflates.
181)Do not attach accessories to the
lower portion of the driver’s side instrument
panel. Such objects could prevent the
driver’s knee airbag from inflating normally
or could be propelled to cause serious
injury if the airbag inflates.
182)Do not put packages, pets or other
objects between the airbags and the driver
or front passenger. It could affect airbag
performance, or could cause injury when
the airbag inflates.
183)Right after the airbag inflation, several
airbag system components will be hot. Do
not touch these components. There is a
danger of being burnt.
184)The airbag system is designed to
work only once. Once the airbags have
deployed, they will not work again. They
must promptly be replaced and we
recommend you to have the entire airbag
system inspected by a Fiat Dealership.
185)Do not affix rigid objects to the
garment hooks or support handles.186)Do not rest your head, arms or
elbows on the door, windows or the area in
which the Window bag is located to avoid
possible injury during airbag inflation.
187)The airbag does not replace seat
belts but increases their efficiency.
Furthermore, since front airbags are not
deployed in low-speed frontal impacts,
side impacts, rear shunts or roll-overs, the
passengers are protected only by the seat
belts which must therefore be fastened at
all times.
188)The side airbags and curtain airbags
are designed to supplement the driver and
passenger seat belts in certain side
impacts. Seat belts should always be worn
properly, and the driver and passenger
should sit well back and upright without
leaning against the window or door.
189)The side airbag and curtain airbag
inflate with great force. The driver and
passenger should not put their arms out
the window, and should not lean against
the door, in order to reduce risk of serious
or possible fatal injury from the deploying
side airbag and curtain airbag.
190)Do not allow any rear seat occupant
to hold onto the seatback of either front
seat, in order to reduce risk of injury from
the deploying side airbag. Special care
should be taken with children.
191)Do not place any objects near or in
front of the seatback of either front seat.
They could interfere with proper side airbag
inflation, and also could cause injury if
thrown free by side airbag deployment.
192)Do not install seat covers on seats
with side airbags. Do not re-cover seats
that have side airbags. This could interfere
with proper side airbag inflation.193)Do not attach a microphone (A) or
any other device or object around the part
where the curtain airbags (B) activate such
as on the windscreen, side door glass,
front and rear pillars and roof side or assist
grips. When the curtain airbags inflate, the
microphone or other device or object will
be hurled with great force or the curtain
airbags may not activate correctly, resulting
in death or serious injury.
194)Do not allow the child to lean against
or close to the front door even if the child is
seated in a child restraint system. The
child’s head should also not be leaned
against or be close to the area where the
side airbag and curtain airbag are located.
It is dangerous if the side airbag and
curtain airbag inflate. Failure to follow all of
these instructions could lead to serious or
fatal injury to the child.
195)We recommend work around and on
the side airbags and curtain airbags
system to be done by a Fiat Dealership.
196)We recommend any maintenance
performed on or near the components of
the SRS to be performed by a Fiat
Dealership. Improper work on the SRS
components or wiring could result in
inadvertent deployment of the airbags, or
could render the SRS inoperative; either
situation could result in serious injury.
197)Do not modify your steering wheel,
seat belt retractor or any other SRS
components. For example, replacement of
the steering wheel, or modifications to the
front bumper or body structure can
adversely affect SRS performance and lead
to possible injury.

During cold weather, shifting may be
difficult until the transmission lubricant
has warmed up. This is normal and not
harmful to the transmission.
If it is hard to shift into 1st, depress the
clutch pedal again; the shift will then be
easier to make.
In case of hot weather condition or long
time cruising with high speed, a speed
limitation function may work to restrict
the oil temperature rising of the manual
transmission. After the oil temperature
drops to the appropriate level, the
speed limitation function is cancelled.
The gearshift indicator shows
recommended gearshift points for
fuel-efficient driving. It shows a
when
an upshift is recommended.Moving the gearshift lever to the
“R” (Reverse) position
Depress and hold the gearshift lever to
the “R” (Reverse) position.110)
Possible driving speed
Avoid shifting down at high speed, as
this may cause excessive engine speed
