When the CITY function is on, the
steering wheel effort is lighter, making
parking easier: therefore, this function is
particularly useful for driving in city
centres.
To ensure steering uniformity, when the
key is pressed while the steering wheel
is being turned, the change of force will
only be felt when it is turned in the
opposite direction, or the steering
wheel is released.
WARNING
28)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft
device) that could adversely affect
performance, invalidate the warranty, cause
serious safety problems and also result in
the car not meeting type-approval
requirements.
29)Before performing any maintenance
operations, always stop the engine and
remove the key from the ignition to lock the
steering column (especially when the car
wheels are not touching the ground). If this
is not possible (for example if the key
needs to be turned to MAR or the engine
must be running), remove the main fuse
that protects the electric power steering.

VERSION WITH LPG
SYSTEM
33) 34)
12) 13) 14) 15)
INTRODUCTION
The LPG version features two fuel
supply systems: one for petrol and one
for LPG.
PASSIVE SAFETY /
ACTIVE SAFETY
Passive safety
The car has the same passive safety
specifications as other versions. In
particular, the mountings of the tank
(located in the space-saver wheel
housing) have been designed to comply
with the Fiat safety standards for impact
tests.
When running on LPG, the flow of gas
(in a liquid state) leaving the tank
passes through the specific piping to
the pressure regulator unit, where there
is a safety solenoid valve that stops the
flow of LPG when the ignition key is
removed or when the driver selects a
fuel change (decision to run on petrol).
Together with the regulator solenoidvalve, a second solenoid valve, in the
tank, closes the LPG pipe at the tank
outlet.
The two solenoid valves are connected
to the fuel cut-off system (Fire
Protection System).
The LPG tank complies with the current
legal regulations of the countries where
the car is sold.
Active safety
The car has the same active safety
specifications as other versions.
Although the LPG system has
numerous safety features, it is advisable
to proceed as follows every time the car
is not in use for a long period or moved
in an emergency as a result of a
breakdown or accident:
unscrew the fixing devices 1 fig. 67,
then remove the cover 2;
close the LPG cock rotating the ring
1 fig. 68clockwise;
refit the cover and retighten the
fastening devices.IMPORTANT If gas is smelt, switch from
LPG operation to petrol operation and
immediately go to the Fiat Dealership to
have the vehicle checked and possible
system faults excluded.

DISPLAY
DESCRIPTION
The vehicle is equipped with a display
that can show useful information to the
driver while driving.
With the ignition device in STOP
position and ignition key removed, the
display lights up and shows the time
and total odometer reading (in km or
miles) for a few seconds when a door is
opened/closed.
GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
The Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) system
gives an indication (2 fig. 79 for versions
with multifunction display or 4 fig. 80 for
versions with reconfigurable
multifunction display) on the instrument
panel display to advise the driver when
to change gear.
Through the GSI, the driver is informed
that shifting gear will allow a reduction
in fuel consumption.
When the
symbol appears on the
display, the GSI suggests switching to a
higher gear, while when the
symbol
is displayed, the GSI suggests
changing to a lower gear.The indication in the display remains
until a gear is shifted or the driving
conditions go back to a situation where
gearshifting is not required to improve
consumption.
On some versions, the engaged gear
and the recommended one are
displayed next to the
orsymbol.
Icons
ormay appear when
the GSI recommends shifting to a gear
two steps higher than the currently
engaged one. On these versions, the
system only displays the engaged gear
when the driving conditions do not
make it necessary to change gear to
optimise fuel consumption.
The indications of the engaged gear
and the recommended gear shift
temporarily disappear from the display
during a gear shift and reappear as
soon as the gear shift is finished.
MULTIFUNCTION
DISPLAY
The display fig. 79 will show the
following information:
1: Headlight alignment position (only
with dipped beam headlights on)
2: Gear Shift Indicator (GSI)
3: Engaged gear indication
4: Time
5: Outside temperature (for
versions/markets, where provided)
6: Odometer (display of distance
travelled in kilometres/miles)
7: Display of "Cruise Control" or
instantaneous speed (for
versions/markets, where provided)

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

TRIP COMPUTER
The "Trip computer" is used to display
information on vehicle operation when
the ignition device is at MAR.
This function has two separate
memories, called “Trip A” and “Trip B”,
where the trip data are recorded
separately from each other.
Both memories can be reset.
“Trip A” and “Trip B” are used to display
the values relating to:
Autonomy
Instant consumption
Distance (distance travelled)
Average fuel consumption
Average speed
Trip time (driving time)
NOTE The displayed data can change
based on the vehicle version.
To reset the values, press and hold
down theOKbutton on the steering
wheel fig. 82.NOTE “Range” and “Instantaneous fuel
consumption" parameters cannot be
reset.

Red warning lights
Warning light What it means
redINSUFFICIENT BRAKE FLUID / PARKING BRAKE ON
Low brake fluid level
The warning light turns on when the level of the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level,
possibly due to a leak in the circuit. Restore the brake fluid level, then check that the warning light has
switched off. If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership.
Parking brake on
The warning light switches on when the parking brake is engaged.
redPOWER STEERING FAILURE
This warning light (or symbol in the display) switches on when the ignition device is brought to MAR, but it
should switch off after a few seconds. If the warning light (or symbol on the display) remains on, you could
not have steering assistance and the effort required to operate the steering wheel could be increased;
steering is, however, possible. Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
redAUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FAILURE / DUAL CLUTCH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FAILURE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light or symbol switches on to indicate that there is a failure in the automatic transmission or in
the dual clutch automatic transmission. Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.20)
redLOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
The warning light or symbol switches on in the case of insufficient engine oil pressure.
21)
IMPORTANT Do not use the car until the failure has been solved. The switching on of the symbol does not
show the quantity of oil in the engine: the oil level must be checked manually.
IMPORTANT
57
20)Driving the vehicle with the warning light or symbol on may severely damage the transmission, with resulting breakage. The oil may also
overheat: contact with hot engine or with exhaust components at high temperature could cause fires.
21)If the warning light or the symbol turns on while driving, stop the engine immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.

Warning light What it means
redALTERNATOR FAILURE
If this warning light or symbol switches on when the engine is running, this indicates a vehicle recharging
system failure. Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
redDOOR OPEN
The warning light or the symbol switches on when one or more doors are not completely shut (for
versions/markets, where provided). An acoustic signal is activated with the doors open and the car moving.
Close the doors properly.
redAIR BAG FAILURE
If the warning light switches on constantly, this indicates a failure in the airbag system.
35) 36)
WARNING
35)If, when the ignition device is turned to MAR, thewarning light does not switch on or stays on whilst driving, a failure may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In this case the airbags or pretensioners may not be deployed in an impact or, in a lower number of cases,
they may be deployed accidentally. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked.
36)The failure of the
warning light is signalled by the lighting up of thesymbol on the instrument panel display (or, for versions where
provided, by the flashing of the generic failure warning light). In this case, the warning light may not indicate any faults with the restraint
systems. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked
59

Warning light What it means
amberINJECTION / EOBD SYSTEM FAILURE
In normal conditions, when the ignition device is brought to MAR, the warning light switches on, but it
should switch off as soon as the engine is started. The operation of the warning light may be checked by
the traffic police using specific devices. Comply with the laws and regulations of the country where you are
driving.
22)
Injection system failure
If the warning light remains on, or it switches on whilst driving, the injection system is not working properly.
The warning light on constantly signals a malfunction in the supply/ignition system which could cause high
exhaust emissions, a possible loss of performance, poor driveability and high consumption. The warning
light switches off if the malfunction disappears, but is still stored by the system. Under these conditions, the
vehicle can continue travelling at moderate speed but without demanding excessive effort from the engine
or high speed. Prolonged use of the car with the warning light on may cause damage. Contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
Catalytic converter damaged
If the warning light flashes, it means that the catalytic converter may be damaged. Release the accelerator
pedal to lower the speed of the engine until the warning light stops flashing. Continue the journey at
moderate speed, trying to avoid driving conditions that may cause further flashing and contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
IMPORTANT
22)If, turning the ignition device to MAR, thewarning light does not turn on or if it turns on steadily or flashing when travelling (on some
versions together with the message on the display), contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
