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:

Disengagement
Move the steering wheel slightly as you turn the
ignition key to MAR.
WARNING
Never extract the key while the vehicle
is moving.The steering wheel should lock
automatically as soon as it is turned.This also
applies to cases in which the vehicle is towed. It
is absolutely forbidden to carr y out any
after-market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifications (e.g.
installation of anti-theft device) that could
badly affect performance and safety, invalidate
the warranty and also result in the car failing
to comply with regulations.
ON-BOARD INSTRUMENTS
The instrument background colour and type may
vary according to the versions.
SPEEDOMETER (speed indicator)
Indicates vehicle speed.
REV COUNTER
The rev counter shows the number of engine
revolutions per minute.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection control system
gradually shuts off the flow of fuel when the engine
is over-revving, resulting in a gradual loss of engine
power.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter may
indicate a gradual or sudden increase of the speed.

This is normal and does not indicate a fault. It may be
caused, for example, by the activation of the climate
control system or fan. In these cases, a slow change
in revs is used to protect the battery charge.
FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
This shows the amount of fuel left in the fuel tank.
Warning light A fig. 11 comes on to indicate that
approximately 6-7 litres of fuel are left in the tank.
E - tank empty.
F - tank full (see the description in paragraph "Vehicle
refuelling" in this chapter).
Do not travel with the tank nearly empty to prevent
damaging the catalytic converter.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. 11 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.

“Trip B” may be disabled (see “Activating
Trip B”). “Range” and “Instant
consumption" parameters cannot be
reset .
Values displayed
Range (for versions/markets where provided)
This value shows the distance that the car can still
cover before needing fuel, assuming that driving style
is unvaried. “----”will appear on the display in
the following cases:
range is lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
vehicle is left parked with the engine running for a
long time.
IMPORTANT The range can be affected by several
factors: driving style (see “Driving style” in the
“Starting and driving” section), type of route
(motorway, towns and cities, mountain roads, etc.),
conditions of use (load, tyre pressures, etc.). Trip
planning must therefore take the above into account.
Distance travelled
This value shows the distance covered from the start
of the new journey.
Average consumption
This value shows the approximate average fuel
consumption from the start of the new journey.Current consumption
This value shows the fuel consumption. The value is
constantly updated. The message “----” will appear
on the display if the vehicle is parked with the engine
running.
Average speed
Shows the average speed of the vehicle by using the
overall time elapsed since the start of a new journey.
Journey time
Time elapsed since the start of the new journey.
IMPORTANT If there is no information, the Trip
computer displays "----" in place of the value. When
normal operating conditions are restored, the
counting of the various values is resumed, without
either zeroing the values displayed prior to the
problem, or starting a new journey.
Control TRIP button
The TRIP button is located at the end of the right
stalk fig. 15. With the ignition key turned to
MAR-ON, this button allows you to view the
previously described values and also zero them to
begin a new journey:
press briefly to display the different values;
long push to reset and then start a new journey.
This begins after a reset:
