PLASTIC AND COATED
PARTS
103)
Clean interior plastic parts with a damp
cloth (if possible made from microfibre),
and a solution of water and neutral,
non-abrasive detergent.
To clean oily or persistent stains, use
specific products free from solvents and
designed to maintain the original
appearance and colour of the
components.
Remove any dust using a microfibre
cloth, if necessary moistened with
water. The use of paper tissues is not
recommended as these may leave
residues.
GENUINE LEATHER

(where provided)
Use only water and mild soap to clean
these parts. Never use alcohol or
alcohol-based products.
Before using a specific product for
cleaning interiors, make sure that it
does not contain alcohol and/or
alcohol-based substances.
WARNING
186)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.
187) Do not keep aerosol cans in the car:
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.

eco:Drive™
Theeco:Drive™ application allows you
to display your driving behaviour in real
time, in order to help you achieve a
more efficient driving style as far as
consumption and emissions are
concerned.
In addition, the data can be saved on a
USB flash drive, and the data analysis
can be made on your personal
computer thanks to the eco:Drive™
desktop application, available on
www.fiat.it (for Italy) or www.fiat.com
(for other countries) or
www.driveuconnect.eu
Driving style is evaluated by means of
four indices which monitor the following
parameters:
Acceleration
Deceleration
Transmission
Speed
Display of the eco:Drive™
Press the eco:Drive™ button to
interact with the function. A screen will
be displayed showing the 4 indices
described above.
These indices are grey until the system
has enough data to evaluate the driving
style. Once sufficient data are available,
the indices will have 5 colours
depending on the evaluation: dark
green (very good), light green, yellow,
orange and red (very bad). In the event of extended inactivity the
display will show the average of the
indices up to that moment (“Average
index”) then the indices will be coloured
again in real time as soon as the car is
restarted.
Recording and transferring trip data
The trip data can be stored in the
system memory and transferred
through a properly configured USB
memory stick or by the
Uconnect™LIVE App. This allows you
to display the history of the collected
data, showing the complete analysis of
the trip data and of your driving style.
For further information visit the
www.driveuconnect.eu website
IMPORTANT Do not remove the USB
memory stick nor unpair the
smartphone and the
Uconnect™LIVE
App before the system has
downloaded the data, since these
could be lost. During the transfer of
data to the devices, Uconnect™
messages may appear on the display
to guide the user correctly through the
operation; follow these instructions.
These messages are only displayed
with the ignition device at STOP and
when a delay in the Uconnect™
system switching off is set. The data
are automatically transferred to the
devices when the engine is switched off. Transferred data will be deleted
from the system memory in this
manner. You can choose to store the
trip data or not, by pressing the
"Settings" button and by setting the
storage activation and the transfer
mode (USB or Cloud), as required.
When the USB memory stick is full, the
dedicated messages are shown on the
Uconnect™
system display.
When the eco:Drive™ data have not
been transferred to the USB key for a
while, the Uconnect™ system internal
memory could become saturated: in
this case, follow the recommendations
provided by the messages on the
display.
my:Car
my:Car allows you to keep the
condition of your car always under
