What it means What to do
redINSUFFICIENT ENGINE OIL PRESSURE/ENGINE OIL
DETERIORATED
When the key is turned to MAR the warning light
comes on, but should go out as soon as the engine is
started.
Steady light: Low engine oil pressure
The warning light comes on fixed, together with a
message on the display (for versions/markets, where
provided) when the system detects insufficient engine
oil pressure.
37)
On blinking: Engine oil degraded
(for Multijet versions only)
The warning light starts to flash together with a
message on the display (for versions/markets, where
provided) when the system detects that the engine oil
has deteriorated.
If the warning light flashes, this does not mean that the
vehicle is faulty, but simply informs the driver that it is
now necessary to change the engine oil as a result of
regular vehicle use. If the oil is not changed, warning
light
will also come on and engine operation is
limited to 3000 rpm when a second threshold is
reached.
If the oil is still not changed, when a third deterioration
threshold is reached, the engine is limited to 1500 rpm
to avoid damage.Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
9)
Remember that the deterioration of the engine oil is
accelerated by:
– mainly town use of the vehicle which makes the DPF
regeneration process more frequent
– use of the vehicle for short trips, preventing the
engine from reaching operating temperature
– repeated interruption of the regeneration process,
signalled by the DPF warning light coming on.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

What it means What to do
redLOW ENGINE OIL LEVEL
When turning the ignition key to MAR, the warning
light turns on but it should go off after a few seconds.
This warning light appears on the panel when the
engine oil level falls below the minimum recommended
value.
On certain versions a dedicated message is displayed.Restore the correct engine oil level (see “Checking fluid
levels” in the "Servicing and care" section).
redDOOR OPEN
On certain versions, the warning light turns on when
one or more doors or the boot are not properly closed.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.Check that all doors or the boot (for versions/markets,
where provided) are perfectly closed.
redPOWER STEERING FAILURE
When the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON the
warning light on the dial turns on, but it should turn off
after a few seconds.
If the warning light stays on together with the message
shown on the display and a buzzer, the power steering
is ineffective and the effort on the steering wheel
increases significantly even though the vehicle can be
steered.Contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
34)If thewarning light turns on while driving (on certain versions together with the message on the display) stop the car immediately and
contact a Fiat Dealership.
35)The warning light
may not light up when the key is turned to MAR or stay on while travelling to indicate a retaining system fault. In this
case, the airbags or the pretensioners may not be activated in the case of an accident or (in a lesser number of cases) they may be activated
incorrectly. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership to have the system checked immediately.
51

36)A failure of thewarning light is indicated by thewarning light flashing or, depending on the version, by theicon turning on
continuously on the display. In this case, thewarning light may not indicate a possible problem with the airbag restraint system. Before
continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership to have the system checked immediately.
37)If the
warning light switches on when travelling (on certain versions together with the message on the display), stop the engine
immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
9)If the warning light 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.
Amber warning lights
What it means What to do
amberINJECTION SYSTEM FAULT (Multijet versions) - EOBD
ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM FAULT (petrol versions)
In normal conditions, when the ignition key is turned to
MAR the warning light switches on, but it should
switch off as soon as the engine is started.
10)
Injection system failure
(Multijet versions)
If the warning light stays on or comes on when
travelling, it means there is a fault in the injection
system which could cause loss of performance, poor
handling and high fuel consumption levels.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.Under these conditions, the vehicle can continue
travelling at moderate speed without demanding
excessive effort from the engine. Prolonged use of the
vehicle with the warning light on may cause damage.
52
KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

What it means What to do
amberGENERAL FAILURE INDICATION
The warning light turns on in the following
circumstances:
Engine oil pressure sensor failure
The warning light switches on when an engine oil
pressure sensor anomaly is detected.Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to have
the fault fixed.
Exterior lights failure:
On certain versions, the warning light will come on
when a failure to one of the following lights is detected:side lights;
brake lights;
rear fog lamps;
direction indicators;
number plate lights.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.The failure relating to these lights could be: one or
more blown bulbs, a blown protection fuse or a break
in the electrical connection.
57

What it means What to do
amberASR SYSTEM DEACTIVATED
The ASR system can be turned off by pressing the
button ASR OFF. The warning light switches on to
warn the driver that the system is off. If the ASR OFF
button is pressed again, the warning light will switch
off to inform the driver that the system is on again.
amberTRACTION PLUS SYSTEM ACTIVATION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on when the Traction Plus
system is activated by pressing the T+ button on the
dashboard. The LED on the button turns on.
Traction Plus system failure
Turning the key to the MAR position, if the warning
light stays on or lights up when travelling with the LED
on the button and the warning light
.
The display will show a specific message.In this case, contact the Fiat Service Network as soon
as possible.
amberREAR FOG LIGHTS
The warning light comes on when the rear fog lights
are turned on.
WARNING
38)During regeneration, the fan could be operated.
39)The driving speed must always be suitable for traffic and weather conditions and the driver must always comply with the Highway Code.
The engine may be stopped if the DPF light is on; however, repeated interruption of the regeneration process may result in premature
deterioration of the engine oil. For this reason, always wait until the warning light switches off before stopping the engine as described above.
It is not advisable to complete DPF regeneration with the vehicle stationary.

when the space-saver wheel is
fitted. Before carrying out the “Reset”
procedure, inflate the tyres to the rated
pressure values specified in the inflation
pressure table (see "Wheels" paragraph
in the "Technical specifications"
chapter).
If the “Reset” procedure is not carried
out, in all above cases, the
warning
light may give false indications on
one or more tyres.
To carry out the “Reset” procedure,
with the vehicle stopped and the
ignition device at MAR, use the Setup
Menu as follows:
briefly press thebutton: the
display will show "Reset";
press thebutton or the
button to select ("Yes" or "No");
briefly press thebutton: the
display will show "Confirm";
pressbutton orto select
("Yes" to “Reset” or "No" to exit the
video page);
press thebutton again to return
to the standard screen or to the main
menu according to where you are in the
menu.
After the “Reset” the display will show
the "Reset saved" message, indicating
that the "self-learning" has been
started.Operating conditions
The system is active for speeds above
15 km/h. In a few situations such as
sporty driving, particular conditions of
the road surface (e.g. icy, snowy,
unsurfaced roads...) the signalling may
be delayed or partial in detecting the
contemporary deflation of more than
one tyre. Under special conditions (e.g.
vehicle loaded asymmetrically on one
side, towing a trailer, damaged or worn
tyre, fitting the space-saver wheel,
use of the "Fix&Go Automatic"
kit, fitting snow chains, fitting different
tyres on the axles) the system may give
false indications or be temporarily
deactivated.
If the system is temporarily deactivated,
the warning light
flashes for about
75 seconds and then is continuously
on; at the same time, the display shows
a dedicated message. This warning is
displayed also after the engine has
been switched off and then on again if
the correct operating conditions are not
restored.

WARNING
55)The system is an aid for the driver, who
must always pay full attention while
driving. The responsibility always rests with
the driver, who must take into account
the traffic conditions in order to drive
in complete safety. The driver must always
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle
in front.
56)If the driver depresses the brake pedal
fully or carries out a fast steering during
system operation, the automatic braking
function may stop (e.g. to allow a possible
manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle).
57)The laser beam is not visible at the
naked eye. Do not look directly, or with
optical instruments (e.g. lenses), at the
laser beam from a distance lower than 10
cm: this may cause damage to the sight.
The laser beam is also present when
the key is at MAR but its operation is off,
not available or manually deactivated
with the display Setup Menu.
58)The system intervenes on vehicles
travelling in the same lane. Small sized
vehicles (e.g. bicycles or motorbikes)
or people, animals and things (e.g.
pushchairs) and more in general all those
obstacles with a low reflection of the light
emitted by the laser (e.g. vehicles soiled
with mud) are not taken into consideration.
