WARNING
LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
DOOR OPEN (red)
On certain versions, the warn-
ing light turns on when one or
more doors or the boot are not proper-
ly closed.
A specific message is displayed on certain
versions.
You will hear a warning sound if a door
is open and the car is moving.
´
“DUALDRIVE”
ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING FAILURE (red)
This warning light comes on
when the ignition key is turned to MAR,
but it should go off after a few seconds.
If the warning light stays on, you will not
get the benefit from the electric power
steering and the effort needed to turn the
wheel will be greatly increased, although
it will still be possible to steer the car.
Contact a Fiat Dealership.
A specific message is displayed on certain
versions.
g
EBD FAULT
(red)
(amber)
Warning lights
xand >lit at the same
time with the engine running indicates an
EBD system failure or that the system is
not available. This may cause premature
locking of the rear wheels in the event of
violent braking, causing the car to swerve.
Drive very carefully to a Fiat Dealership to
have the system inspected immediately.
A specific message is displayed on certain
versions.

LOW ENGINE OIL
LEVEL (red)
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
When turning the ignition key to MAR,
the warning light turns on but it should go
off after a few seconds.
This warning light where provided comes
on when the engine oil level falls below the
minimum recommended value. Restore
the correct engine oil level (see “Check-
ing fluid levels” in the “Servicing and care”
section).
A specific message is displayed on certain
versions.
kExhausted engine oil should
be replaced as soon as pos-
sible after the warning light comes on,
never more than 500 km after the
warning light first comes on. Failure
to change the oil within the first 500
km may result in severe damage to
the engine and will result in forfeiture
of the warranty. Remember that
when the warning light flashes, it does
not mean that the level of engine oil
is low, so if the light flashes you must
not top up.
WARNING
For versions/markets, where
provided:
the
vwarning light turns on and flash-
es along with the message on the display
(if applied) when the system detects that
the engine oil is exhausted. The flashing of
the warning light should not be considered
as a fault, rather simply informs the driver
that oil needs to be changed after a stan-
dard period of car utilisation. If the oil is
not changed, when reaching a second de-
terioration threshold, also the warning
light
Uswitches on in the instrument
panel and the engine operation is limited
at 3000 rpm.
If the oil is still not changed, when reaching
a third deterioration threshold, the engine
is limited at 1500 rpm to avoid damage.
WARNING! To avoid dam-
aging the engine it is recom-
mended to change the en-
gine oil when the warning light
v
flashes. Contact a Fiat Dealership.

STARTING THE ENGINE
EMERGENCY START-UP
If the instrument panel warning light
Ystays on permanently, contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately.
JUMP STARTING fig. 1
If the battery is flat, the engine may be
started using an auxiliary battery with an
equal or slightly higher capacity than the
flat one. Proceed as follows to start the car:
❒connect the positive terminals (+
near
the terminal) of the two batteries with
a jump lead;
❒with a second lead, connect the nega- tive terminal (– ) of the auxiliary battery
to an earthing point
Eon the engine or
the gearbox of the car to be started;
❒start the engine.
❒when the engine has been started, fol- low the sequence above in reverse or-
der to remove the leads.
If after a few attempts the engine does not
start, do not keep trying but contact a Fi-
at Dealership. IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the
negative terminals of the two batteries:
sparks could ignite explosive gas released
from the battery. If the auxiliary battery is
installed on another car, prevent acciden-
tal contact between metallic parts of the
two cars.
NB
For cars with Start&Stop system, in
case of starting by booster battery, refer
to "Dashboard and controls" chapter,
paragraph "Start&Stop system".
This procedure must be per-
formed by expert personnel
because incorrect actions may cause
considerable electrical discharge. Fur-
thermore, battery fluid is poisonous
and corrosive: avoid contact with skin
and eyes. Keep naked flames and lit
cigarettes away from the battery. Do
not create sparks.

SERVICE
AND CARE
The fabric upholstery of your
car is designed to withstand
normal wear and tear for
a long time. Some precautions
are however needed. Avoid prolonged
rubbing against clothing accessories,
such as metal buckles, bosses, Velcro
strips and the like, which by applying
a high pressure on the fabric in a small
area could cause the breakage of some
threads and damage the upholstery.
SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacu-
um cleaner. It is advisable to use a damp
brush on velvet upholstery.
Wipe the seats with a sponge soaked in
a solution of mild detergent and water.
Never use flammable prod-
ucts, such as petroleum
ether or modified petrol, to clean the
inside the car. The electrostatic
charges which are generated by rub-
bing during cleaning may cause a fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol cans in
the vehicle: these could ex-
plode. Aerosol cans must not be ex-
posed to temperatures exceeding
50 °C. When the vehicle is exposed to
sunlight, the temperature inside can
greatly exceed this value.
WARNING
INTERIOR
Check regularly that water is not trapped
under the mats (due to drops from shoes,
umbrellas, etc.), as this could cause the
sheet metal to rust. GENUINE LEATHER STEERING
WHEEL/GEAR LEVER KNOB
These components must be cleaned with
mild soap and water only.
Never use spirits and/or alcohol-based
products.
Before using off-the-shelf products de-
signed for cleaning vehicle interiors, make
sure that they do not contain spirits and/
or alcohol-based substances.
If window cleaner accidentally drips onto
the steering wheel or gear lever knob,
wipe away immediately and then wash the
affected area with mild soap and water.
IMPORTANT When arranging a steering
wheel locking device, be careful not to dam-
age the leather upholstery.
PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior plastic parts
with a damp cloth and a solution of water
and mild, non-abrasive detergent. To re-
move grease and tough stains, use products
designed specifically for cleaning plastics.
These have no solvents and have been de-
signed so that they do not alter the ap-
pearance and colour of the components.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol, petrols
and derivatives to clean the instrument
panel lens.
