USE OF THE OWNER HANDBOOK
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Each time direction instructions (left/right or forwards/backwards) about the vehicle are given, these must be intended as
regarding an occupant in the driver's seat. Special cases not complying with this rule will be specified as appropriate in the text.
The figures in the Owner Handbook are provided by way of example only: this might imply that some details of the image do
not correspond to the actual arrangement of your vehicle. In addition, the Handbook has been conceived considering vehicles
with steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore possible that on vehicles with steering wheel on the right side, the position
or construction of some controls is not exactly mirror-like with respect to the figure.
To identify the chapter with the information needed you can consult the index at the end of this Owner Handbook.
Chapters can be rapidly identified with dedicated graphic tabs, at the side of each odd page. A few pages further there is a key
for getting to know the chapter order and the relevant symbols in the tabs. There is in any case a textual indication of the
current chapter at the side of each even page.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
While reading this Owner Handbook you will find a series ofWARNINGSto prevent procedures that could damage your

which could cause accidents or injuries.
Therefore allWARNINGSandPRECAUTIONSmust always be carefully followed.
WARNINGSandPRECAUTIONSare recalled in the text with the following symbols:

NOTE These symbols, when necessary, are indicated besides the title or at the end of the line and are followed by a number.
That number recalls the corresponding warning at the end of the relevant section.

WARNING
2)The air conditioning system uses refrigerant R134a or R1234yf compatible with the current regulations in the countries where the vehicle is
marketed. When charging, only use the gas indicated on the dedicated plate in the engine compartment . The use of other coolants affects
the efficiency and condition of the system. The lubricant used for the compressor is also strictly linked to the type of cooling gas, please refer
to a Fiat Dealership.
37
Air flow distributed between footwell diffusers (hotter air) and central and side dashboard vents (cooler air). This
distribution mode is particularly useful in spring and autumn on sunny days.
Air flow distributed between the footwell vents and the windscreen and front side window defrosting/demisting vents.
This allows an adequate warming of the passenger compartment and prevents the windows from misting up.

SBR SYSTEM
This system comprises an acoustic
warning which, in conjunction with the
warning lights
flashing on the
instrument panel, warns the front seat
passengers if their seat belt has not
been fastened.
On some versions there is also a panel
fig. 104 (provided as an alternative to
the warning light on the instrument
panel) located above the rear-view
mirror, which warns the front and back
seat passengers via acoustic and
visual signals if their seat belts have not
been fastened.
Contact a Fiat Dealership to deactivate
this acoustic warning permanently.
The acoustic warning can be
reactivated at any time through the
Setup menu (see "Menu items"
paragraph in "Knowing the instrument
panel" chapter).The warning lights fig. 104 may be red
or green and operate as follows:
1 = front left seat (driver status for
left-hand drive versions)
2 = front right seat (passenger
status for left-hand drive versions);
3 = second row left rear seat
(passenger);
4 = second row central rear seat
(passenger);
5 = second row right rear seat
(passenger);
6 = third row left rear seat
(passenger);
7 = third row right rear seat
(passenger);FRONT SEATS (warning
light 1 = driver and 2 =
passenger)
Driver
If the driver is the only occupant and
the seat belt is not fastened, when 20
km/h is exceeded or when travelling
at a speed from 10 to 20 km/h for
longer than 5 seconds, a buzzer
sequence will be started (front seats)
consisting of a tone for 6 seconds
followed by a 90 second beep.The
warning light will blink. The warning
lights will stay on constantly at the end
of the cycle until the engine is stopped.
The acoustic warning will be interrupted
immediately when the driver’s seat
belt is fastened and the warning light
will turn green. The reminder cycle
(acoustic and visual) will be repeated as
described above and the red warning
light will flash if the seat belt is
unfastened again while driving.
Passenger
A similar solution applies for the front
passenger, with the difference that the
warning light turns green and the
warning is interrupted also when the
passenger leaves the car.
