IMPORTANT In the case of ice or snow,
clean the windscreen (including the
central section behind the interior rear
view mirror) and the rear window before
activating the wipers (risk of overheating
their electric motor). Check the status
of the wiper blades:
they have to stay clean: clean both
windscreen and rear window regularly
with soapy water;
do not use them when the
windscreen and rear window are dry;
detach them from the windscreen or
rear window if they have not been used
for a long time.
In any case, replace them as soon as
they are no longer efficient: about once
a year. Before using the rear wiper,
check that there is no item that could
interfere with the wiper trajectory.

38)If the window needs to be cleaned,
make sure the device is deactivated or the
key is on STOP.
39)When working in the engine
compartment, make sure that the rear
window wiper is in the stopped position.
Risk of injury.
IMPORTANT
5)Never use the windscreen wipers to
remove layers of snow or ice from the
windscreen. In such conditions, the
windscreen wiper may be subjected to
excessive stress and the motor cut-out
switch, which prevents operation for a few
seconds, may intervene. If operation is not
subsequently restored, even after restarting
the vehicle, contact a Fiat Dealership.
6)Do not operate the windscreen wiper
with the blades lifted from the windscreen.
7)Make sure the device is switched off if
there is ice on the windscreen.
REFUELLING THE
VEHICLE
Useful tank capacity: Approx. 80 litres
Open the left front door to access the
flap A fig. 84.
While filling, hang the cap 2 fig. 84 on
the cap holder 1 on the flap A.
IMPORTANT After filling, check that the
cap and flap are closed.
Fuel quality
Use the best quality fuel, respecting the
regulations in force specific to each
country, and adhere strictly to the
indications on the label located on the
flap A.
40)
8)
Fuel filling
To refill the tank with the starter device
disengaged, insert the fuel nozzle and
push it as far as it will go before starting
fuelling (risk of splatters).
Hold the nozzle in this position the
entire time you are refilling.
If filling up, after the first automatic stop,
you can top up another two clicks to
keep the expansion volume inside the
tank empty. When refuelling, make sure
water does not get in. The flap A and
related surrounding parts must be kept
clean.
Vehicles with the Start&Stop
function
IMPORTANT When refuelling, the
engine must be stopped and not in
stand-by.
41)
Fuel empty
Vehicles with key with remote
control
Turn the key to the "M" position and
wait a few minutes before starting the
engine to allow the fuel circuit to
reactivate;
Turn the key to D. If the engine does
not start, repeat above.

S fig. 87: "Stop" position. To lock the
steering wheel, remove the key and
turn the wheel until the lock kicks in. To
unlock it, work both the key and the
steering wheel, without using force.
A: Accessories position. When the
starter device is disengaged,
accessories (radio, etc.) continue to
function.
M: Gear change position. With the
starter device inserted.
D: Drive position. If the engine does
not start, you need to withdraw the key
before activating the ignition again. As
soon as the engine starts, release the
key.
WARNING
45)If the ignition device has been
tampered with (e.g. an attempted theft),
have it checked by a Fiat Dealership before
driving again.
46)Always take the key with you when you
leave your vehicle to prevent someone
from accidentally operating the controls.
Remember to engage the parking brake.
Never leave children unattended in the
vehicle.
47)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft
device) that could adversely affect
performance, invalidate the warranty, cause
serious safety problems and also result in
the car not meeting type-approval
requirements.
48)Never extract the mechanical key while
the vehicle is moving. The steering wheel
will automatically lock as soon as it is
turned. This also applies to cases in which
the vehicle is towed.
49)Before exiting the vehicle, ALWAYS
engage the parking brake, steer the
wheels, engage the first gear if uphill and
the reverse if downhill. If the vehicle is
parked on a steep slope, chock the wheels
with wedges or stones. When leaving the
vehicle, always lock all the doors by
pressing the button on the key.
CLIMATE CONTROL
Advice for use
In some cases (air conditioning off, air
recycling on, ventilation speed nil or
insignificant, etc.), the vehicle windows
and windscreen can mist up. In case of
misting, use the MAX DEF function to
eliminate it, then, to prevent it from
re-forming, use the air conditioning in
automatic mode.
Maintenance
Please see the Scheduled Service Plan.
IMPORTANT Air conditioning function
means greater fuel consumption (turn
off the system when you no longer
need it).
50) 51)
2)
Consumption
Greater fuel consumption is normal
(especially in urban traffic) when the air
conditioning is in use. Some advice for
reducing fuel consumption to a
minimum and helping safeguard the
environment:
deactivate the system when it is not
needed;
while driving, keep the diffuser open
and the windows closed;
if the vehicle has been parked in high
temperatures or in the sun, aerate the
passenger compartment to let out the
hot air before leaving.
