IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
188(CONTINUES)
PERSONAL SAFETY
(CONTINUED)
7) DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (DRL)
•The daytime running lights are an alternative to the dipped
beam headlights for driving during the daytime in countries
where it is compulsory to have lights on during the day, and
they are also permitted in those countries where this is not
obligatory.
•Daytime running lights cannot replace dipped beam
headlights when driving at night or through tunnels.
•The use of daytime running lights is governed by the highway
code of the country in which you are driving. Comply with legal
requirements.
8) FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM
If, after an impact, you smell fuel or notice leaks from the fuel
system, do not reactivate the system to avoid the risk of fire.
9) INTERIOR FITTINGS
•The cigar lighter gets extremely hot. Handle it with caution and
do not allow it to be used by children to avoid the risk of fire or
burns. Always check that the cigar lighter has switched off.
•Only accessories with a maximum power of 180 W (maximum
absorption 15 A) can be connected to the socket.
•Never travel with the glove compartment open: it could injure
the passenger in the event of a crash.
•On both sides of the passenger side sun visor there is a label
remembering that it is compulsory to deactivate the airbags if a
rearward facing child restraint system is fitted.
Always comply with the instructions on the label.10) SUNROOF – ELECTRIC SOFT TOP
ELECTRIC WINDOWS
When leaving the car, always remove the key from the ignition
device to avoid the risk of injury to the vehicle occupants due to
accidental operation of these devices: improper use can be
dangerous. Before and during operation, always check that
nobody is exposed to the risk of being injured either directly by
the moving window or through objects getting
caught or hit by it.
11) SOFT TOP
•Keep hands away from the soft top mechanism while opening
and closing the soft top or if the soft top stops in a position before
the cycle is completed to prevent damage and injury.
•Keep children away from the area in which the top is folding
during opening or closing operations.
12) DOORS
Before opening a door, ensure that you can do it in conditions of
safety. Open the doors only when the vehicle is stationary.
13) LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
•Never exceed the maximum allowed load in the luggage
compartment, see chapter “Technical specifications”. Also make
sure that the objects you place in the luggage compartment have
been properly secured, to avoid them from being thrown forward
consequent to sudden braking and injuring your passengers.
•Do not drive with the tailgate open as exhaust fumes may enter
the vehicle.
•If you are travelling in areas with few filling stations and you
want to transport fuel in a spare tank, comply with the law by
using only an approved, suitably secured tank. In the event of a
collision the fire risk is increased all the same.

191
21) VEHICLE REFUELLING
•Do not bring naked flames or lit cigarettes near to the fuel tank
opening: fire risk. Keep your face away from the fuel filler to
prevent breathing in harmful vapours.
•During normal service the catalyst reaches high temperatures;
therefore do not park the car over inflammable materials (grass,
dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire hazard.
•Do not use a mobile phone near the refuelling pump: risk of fire.
22) SEAT BELTS - PRETENSIONERS
•Do not press the seat belt release button while the vehicle is
moving.
•Remember that in the event of an accident, the rear seat
passengers not wearing seat belts are exposed to a very serious
risk and also represent a serious danger for the front seat
occupants.
•The pretensioner may be used only once. Contact a Fiat
Dealership to have it replaced after it has been deployed.
•For maximum safety, keep the backrest upright, lean back into
it and make sure the seat belt fits closely across your chest and
pelvis. Always fasten the seat belts on both the front and the rear
seats.
•Travelling without wearing seat belts will increase the risk of
serious injury and even death in the event of an accident.
•Removing or tampering with seat belt and pretensioner
components is strictly prohibited. Any intervention on these
components must be performed by qualified and authorised
technicians. Always go to a Fiat Dealership.

PERSONAL SAFETY
(CONTINUED)
19) START&STOP SYSTEM
•When replacing the battery, always go to a Fiat Dealership.
Replace the battery with one of the same type (HEAVY DUTY)
and with the same specifications.
•Before opening the bonnet, make sure that the vehicle is
switched off and the key is in the STOP position.
Please follow the instructions on the decal near the front
crossmember. It is advisable to extract the key when there are
other people in the car.
The car should always be left after the key has been removed
or turned to the STOP position. When refuelling, make sure
that the car is switched off with the key in the STOP position.
•For cars with Dualogic gearbox, if the engine is
automatically stopped on a slope, the engine should be
restarted by moving the gear lever
to + or – without –releasing the brake pedal.
For vehicles with Dualogic transmission, where the Hill Holder
function is present, in case of stop downhill the motor does
not cut off automatically, so as to make the Hill Holder
function - which is active only when the engine is running -
available.
•If climate comfort is to be favoured, the Start&Stop system
can be disabled, for a continuous operation of the climate
control system.
20) ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER
Take care when fitting additional spoilers, alloy wheels or non-
standard wheel hubs: they could reduce the ventilation of the
brakes and affect efficiency under sharp, repeated braking or
on long descents. Make sure that nothing obstructs the pedal
stroke (mats, etc.).

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
196
The engine can be stopped even if the DPF warning light is on:
however, repeated interruptions of the regeneration process could
cause premature deterioration of the engine oil.
For this reason, always wait until the warning light switches off
before stopping the engine as described above. Do not complete
the DPF regeneration process when the vehicle is stopped.
•Water in the fuel circuit may severely damage the injection
system and cause irregular engine operation. If the warning light
or the symbol
Eturns on (together with a message on the display
for some versions), contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible
to have the system bled. If the above indication occurs
immediately after refuelling, water may have entered the tank: turn
the engine off immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
• If the system signals a pressure decrease on a specific tyre, it is
recommended to check the pressure on all four tyres. The iTPMS
does not relieve the driver from the obligation to check the tyre
pressure every month; it is not to be considered a system to
replace maintenance or a safety system. Tyre pressure must be
checked with tyres cold. Should it become necessary for whatever
reason to check pressure with warm tyres, do not reduce
pressure even though it is higher than the prescribed value, but
repeat the check when tyres are cold.
• The iTPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre pressure drops
(for example when a tyre bursts). In this case, stop the vehicle,
braking with caution and avoiding abrupt steering.
The system only warns that the tyre pressure is low: it is not able
to inflate them. Insufficient tyre inflation increases fuel
consumption, reduces the tread duration and may affect the
capacity to drive safely.
(CONTINUES)
PERSONAL SAFETY
(CONTINUED)
•If when turning the key to MAR the warning light ¬does not
turn on or if it stays on when travelling there could be a failure in
safety systems;
in this event airbags or pretensioners may not be deployed in
case of impact or, in a minor number of cases, they may be
deployed accidentally. Contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to
have the system checked.
•A fault to the
¬warning light is indicated, according to the
version, by the ¬symbol appearing on the display or by the èwarning light blinking. In this case, warning light ¬may not
indicate failures in the retaining systems. Before continuing,
contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system
checked.
•The blinking
èwarning light on indicates possible ¬warning light faults. In this case, warning light ¬may not
indicate failures in the retaining systems. Contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately to have the system checked.
•If the warning light
vturns on when the car is travelling
(on certain versions together with the message on the display),
stop the car immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
•If the
vwarning light (or v, for versions/markets, where
provided) switches on, the degraded engine oil must be changed
as soon as possible, and never more than 500 km from the first
time that the warning light switches on. Failure to observe the
above may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate
the warranty. The activation of this warning light is not related to
the amount of oil in the engine. Therefore, never top up with oil
when the warning light starts flashing.
•The driving speed must always be suitable for traffic and
weather conditions and the driver must always comply with the
Highway Code.

PERSONAL SAFETY
(CONTINUED)
42) INTERIORS
•Never use flammable products, such as petrol ether or rectified
petrol to clean the inside of the car. The electrostatic charges which
are generated by rubbing during the cleaning operation may cause
a fire.
•Do not keep aerosol cans in the vehicle: they might explode.
Aerosol cans must not be exposed to a temperature exceeding
50°C. When the vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the internal
temperature can greatly exceed this value.
43) TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS – FUEL SUPPLY
Modifications or repairs to the supply system that are not carried
out correctly or do not take the system technical specifications
into account can cause malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
44) TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS – RIM PROTECTOR
TYRES
DO NOT fit wheel hub caps when using integral hub caps fixed
(with springs) to the steel rim and after sale tyres provided with
Rim Protector. Use of unsuitable tyres and wheel caps may cause
sudden decrease of tyre pressure.
45) LPG
•Note that in some countries (including Italy) there are legal
restrictions in force for parking/garaging motor vehicles fuelled by
gas that is denser than air; LPG comes under this category.
•Do not switch between the two operating modes (petrol/LPG)
whilst starting the engine.
•The LPG supply system is equipped with a “consumption”
function linked to the LED display of LPG level on the switch; this
function activates only after a consistent variation in fuel level has
been detected. •Running the battery with an excessively low liquid level will
damage the battery beyond repair and could even cause its
explosion.
•If the vehicle must remain unused for a long time at a very low
temperature, remove the battery and take it to a warm place, to
avoid freezing.
•When performing any operation on the battery or near it,
always protect your eyes with special goggles.
40) TYRES AND WHEELS
•Remember that the road holding qualities of your car also
depend on correct tyre pressures.
•If tyre pressure is too low, the tyre may overheat and be
severely damaged as a result.
•Do not switch tyres from the right hand side of the vehicle to the
left hand side, and vice versa.
•Never submit alloy rims to repainting treatments requiring the
use of temperatures exceeding 150°C.
The mechanical properties of the wheels could be impaired.
41) WINDSCREEN AND –REAR WINDOW WIPER
•Driving with worn windscreen/rear window wiper blades is a
serious hazard, because visibility is reduced in bad weather.
•If the window needs to be cleaned, make sure the device is
deactivated or the key is on STOP.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

201
PERSONAL SAFETY
(CONTINUED)
It is therefore advisable to fill up with fuel at the first LPG
refuelling to obtain a more “precise” indication of the level.
•If gas is smelt, switch from LPG operation to petrol operation
and immediately go to a Fiat Dealership to have the vehicle
checked and possible system faults excluded.
46) ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION SYSTEMS
•The catalytic converter and particulate filter (DPF) reach very
high temperatures during operation.
Therefore, do not park the car on flammable materials (e.g.
grass, dry leaves, pine needles etc.) to avoid the risk of fire.
47) MULTIMEDIA
•Follow the safety rules provided: otherwise serious injuries
may occur to the occupants or the system may be damaged.
•If the volume is too loud this can be dangerous.
Adjust the volume so that you can still hear background noises
(e.g. horns, ambulances, police vehicles, etc.)
•Where provided, my:Car app is not intended to replace the
vehicle Owner Handbook.
•Do not carry out other operations during installation and wait
for its completion, in order not to affect correct operation of the
radio.48) iTPMS SYSTEM
•If the system signals a pressure decrease on one or more tyres,
it is recommended to always check the pressure on all four tyres.
•The iTPMS does not relieve the driver from the obligation to
check the tyre pressure every month; it is not to be considered a
system to replace maintenance or a safety system.
•Tyre pressure must be checked with tyres cold. Should it
become necessary for whatever reason to check pressure with
warm tyres, do not reduce pressure even though it is higher than
the prescribed value, but repeat the check when tyres are cold.
•The iTPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre pressure drops (for
example when a tyre bursts). In this case, stop the vehicle,
braking with
caution and avoiding abrupt steering.
•The system only warns that the tyre pressure is low: it is not
able to inflate them.
•Insufficient tyre inflation increases fuel consumption, reduces
the tread duration and may affect the capacity to drive safely.

203
•Never use alcohol, petrol, chemical products, detergents,
stain removers, wax, solvents and “wash and polish” products.
•Rinse immediate to remove soap to prevent stains. Repeat
the operation if needed.
•Rinse immediately, and repeat this operation if necessary.
If you choose to waterproof the soft top, strictly follow the
instructions on the package of the waterproofing product you
have selected in order to obtain optimal results.
•The rubber seals on the soft top must be cleaned exclusively
with water. If you notice that this trim is dry or is sticking, apply
talcum powder or products specifically for rubber trim (silicone
spray).
7) ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
The use of transversal bars on longitudinal ones prevents the
use of the sunroof, because the latter, while opening, interferes
with the bars. Therefore do not move the sunroof if transversal
bars have been fitted.
8) EOBD SYSTEM
If, when the ignition key is turned to the MAR position, the
Uwarning light either does not come on or, when driving, it
comes on constantly or flashing (along with a message in the
display, for versions/markets, where provided) contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible. The operation of the
Uwarning light may be checked by traffic police using appropriate
equipment. Comply with the laws and regulations of the country
where you are driving.
9) DOORS
Make sure to take the key with you once a door or the tailgate
is locked, to prevent locking the same key inside the vehicle.
If the key has been locked in, it can only be recovered using
the second provided key.10) MULTIMEDIA
• Only clean the front panel and the display lens with a soft,
clean, dry, anti-static cloth.
Cleaning and polishing products may damage the surface. Never
use alcohol, petrols and derivatives.
• Do not use the display as a base for supports with suction pads
or adhesives for external navigators or smartphones or similar
devices
11) REFUELLING YOUR DIESEL ENGINE VEHICLE
Vehicles with a diesel engine must only be filled with diesel fuel for
motor vehicles, in compliance with European Standard EN 590.
The use of other products or mixtures may damage the engine
beyond repair and consequently invalidate the warranty, due to
the damage caused. If you accidentally introduce other types of
fuel into the tank, do not start the engine. Empty the tank. If the
engine has been run for even an extremely limited amount of time,
you must not only drain the fuel tank, but the rest of the supply
circuit as well.
12) SEAT BELTS - PRETENSIONERS
Operations which lead to impacts, vibrations or localised heating
(over 100°C for a maximum of six hours) in the area around the
pretensioner may damage or deploy it. Contact a Fiat Dealership
should intervention be necessary on these components.
13) STARTING AND STOPPING THE ENGINE
• It is advisable not to demand maximum performance from your
car (e.g. excessive accelerations, long distances at top rpm,
excessive intense braking, etc.) as soon as the engine is started.
• When the engine is switched off never leave the key turned to
MAR to prevent useless current absorption from draining the
battery.
