ACTIVATION AND
DEACTIVATION OF THE
SYSTEM
Press button 1 fig. 65 to deactivate the
function. The dedicated message will
appear on the instrument panel and the
warning light 2 fig. 65 on the button will
turn on.
Pressing again will reactivate the
system. The appropriate message will
appear on the instrument panel and the
warning light 2 on the button 1 will turn
off.
The system re-activates automatically
whenever the vehicle is voluntarily
restarted (refer to the "Starting the
engine” paragraph in the “Starting and
driving” chapter).
NOTES: With the engine in stand-by,
press button 1: the engine restarts
automatically.Special cases
For vehicles with an electronic key,
with the system activated, engine off
(traffic jam, stopping at a red light, etc.),
if the driver rises up from his seat or
unbuckles his seat belt, the contact is
disengaged. To restart the Start&Stop
system, press the ignition button (see
"Starter switch” paragraph in the
“Knowing your vehicle” chapter).
In case the engine stops, if the
system is activated, press down hard
on the clutch pedal to restart it.
MISSED ENGINE
STOPPING CONDITIONS
Depending on the vehicle, some
conditions stop the system from
applying the stand-by engine,
specifically:
reverse is in gear;
the bonnet is not locked;
for vehicles with an electronic key,
the driver's door is not closed;
for vehicles with an electronic key,
the driver's seat belt is not fastened;
the outside temperature is too low or
too high (lower than 0°C or over 30°C);
the battery not sufficiently charged;
there is too much difference between
the inside vehicle temperature and that
set by the automatic climate control;
the MAX DEF function is activated
(refer to the "Air conditioning"paragraph in the "Knowing your vehicle”
chapter);
the engine coolant liquid temperature
is not sufficient;
the anti-particulate filter automatic
regeneration is underway;
Or:
the instrument panel warning light
turns on to indicate that the engine
cannot be put in standby.
NOTES:To refuel, the engine must be
turned off (and not in stand-by): you
must stop the engine (refer to the
"Starting the engine” paragraph in the
“Starting and driving” chapter):
RESTARTING
CONDITIONS
In some cases, the engine can restart
without any intervention to guarantee
safety and ideal comfort. This can be
confirmed when:
the outside temperature is too low or
too high (lower than 0°C or over 30°C);
the MAX DEF function is activated
(refer to the "Air conditioning"
paragraph in the "Knowing your vehicle”
chapter);
the battery not sufficiently charged;
the vehicle speed is higher than
5 km/h (going downhill, etc.);
repeated pressure on the brake
pedal or need to use the braking
system;

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE
CLIMATE CONTROL
Advice for use
In some cases (air conditioning off, air
recirculation on, fan speed at zero or
too low, etc.), the vehicle windows and
windscreen may 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.
For cars with air conditioning without
automatic mode, turn off the system
when you no longer need it.
Some advice for reducing fuel
consumption to a minimum and helping
safeguard the environment:
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.
Cars with additional heater
Some vehicles are equipped with an
additional heater that heats the
passenger compartment more quickly.
This device functions only with the
engine on and at low temperatures.
When functioning, a bit of smoke
issuing from the right side of the
vehicle, coming from the heat exhaust
system, is normal.
Irregular operation
Generally speaking, if you notice any
operational irregularity, please see a Fiat
Dealer.
Limited effectiveness of defrosting,
de-misting or air conditioning can be
due to a clogged cabin filter cartridge.
Cold air is not generated. Check the
position of the controls and condition of
the fuses. Otherwise, turn the system
off.
Water beneath the vehicle
After prolonged use of air conditioning,
it is normal to find water under it due to
condensation.

DIESEL VERSION
PARTICULARITIES
17)
Engine speed
Diesel engines are equipped with an
injection system that does not let the
engine exceed a certain number of
revs, no matter what gear is engaged.
If you see the message "Anti-pollution
control" with the warning light
and
the alarm light, contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately.
While driving, depending on the fuel
type used, in exceptional cases the
vehicle might emit white smoke.
This is due to the automatic
regeneration of the anti-particulate filter
and has no consequences on the
vehicle's performance.
Complete lack of fuel
When refuelling after completely using
up all fuel, you need to restore the fuel
circuit: refer to the "Refuelling the
vehicle" paragraph before restarting the
engine.Winter precautions
To prevent any ice-related
inconvenience:
make sure that the battery is always
charged,
make sure not to leave too little
diesel in the tank, so it doesn't form
water vapour condensation that
accumulates on the bottom of the tank.
IMPORTANT
17)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.

(3) The actual interval for changing engine oil and replacing the engine oil filter depends on the vehicle usage conditions and is signalled by the warning light or
message on the instrument panel. It must never exceed 2 years or 40,000 km. Change engine oil and filter every year if the vehicle is driven mainly in town.
(4) Areas that are not dusty: recommended maximum mileage 160,000 km. Regardless of the mileage, the belt must be replaced every 6 years. Dusty areas and/or
heavy conditions (cold climates, urban driving, long periods of idling): the recommended maximum distance is 60,000 km. Regardless of the mileage, the belt
must be replaced every 4 years.
(5) When refuelling the vehicle with a quality below the relevant European specification, this filter must be replaced every 20,000 km
(6) Replacing it every 4 years or 120,000 km is recommended

SERVICING
PROCEDURES
The vehicle respects the recycling
criteria and scrapped vehicle
assessment that will become law in
2016.
Therefore, some of the vehicle’s
components are designed with their
ultimate recycling in mind.
These components can easily be
disassembled to be recovered and
reused in the recycling industry.
Moreover, thanks to its advanced
design, its original setup and its modest
fuel consumption, the vehicle complies
with the anti-pollution regulations in
force. We are actively committed to
reducing polluting gases and saving
energy. But the level of polluting gas
emissions and vehicle consumption
also depend on you. Take care to use
and service your vehicle correctly.
Keep in mind that lack of respect for
anti-pollution laws can expose the
vehicle's owner to administrative
sanctions. Moreover, replacing engine,
fuel system and exhaust parts with
other non-original ones voids the
vehicle's compliance with the
anti-pollution regulations.
