14)When painting in an oven, the LPG tank
must be removed from the car and later
refitted by a Fiat Dealership. Although the
LPG system has numerous safety features,
it is advisable to proceed as follows every
time the vehicle is not in use for a long
period or moved in an emergency as a
result of a breakdown or accident: unscrew
the devices fastening the cover of the LPG
tank, then remove it. Close the LPG cock
rotating the ring nut clockwise (see
"Passive safety / active safety"). Refit the
cover and retighten the fastening devices.
15)When switching is requested, metallic
noise from the valves which pressurise the
circuit can be heard. For the switching logic
described above, a delay between the
valve ticking and the switching off of the
instrument panel indication is completely
normal.
16)Do not switch between the two
operating modes whilst starting the engine.17)In particular usage conditions, such as
starting and operation at low ambient
temperature or LPG supply with low
propane content, the system may switch
temporarily to petrol operation, without a
visual indication of switching on the
instrument panel. In the event of low LPG
levels in the tank or request for high
performance (e.g. overtaking, car fully
laden, steep hills) the system may
automatically switch to petrol operation to
guarantee the engine power requested; the
green warning light
on the instrument
panel switches on to indicate this. When
the above conditions are no longer present,
the system automatically restores LPG
operation; the green warning light
switches off. To achieve the automatic
switching described above, make sure that
there is always enough fuel in the petrol
tank.
18)It is strictly forbidden to use any
additive in the LPG. Periodically (at least
once every six months) it is advisable to let
the LPG in the tank run out and, at the first
refuelling, to check that it does not exceed
the maximum capacity of 42 litres (reserve
included) (with a tolerance of 1 litres
excess). If the level is above 42 litres
(reserve included) contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately.
19)Only use LPG for motor vehicles.
ACTIVE GRILLE
SHUTTER
(where provided)
Your vehicle may be equipped with
Active Grille Shutter, an automatic
system with mobile flaps applied in front
of the cooling module, whose
automatic opening/closing movement
aims at improving the vehicle
aerodynamic efficiency and thus
reducing consumption while ensuring
optimal engine operating temperature
conditions.
When a greater air flow is required for
cooling (e.g. when driving in urban
traffic), the flaps open, whereas when
temperature is low or the air flow is
enough (for example when driving in
motorways), the grille closes.
In case of failure, the instrument panel
will show the warning light
.

KNOWING YOUR CAR
ECO FUNCTION
(where provided)
Press the ECO fig. 73 button to enable
this function.
The ECO function only acts in
automatic mode and directs the shifting
logic towards a driving style that
optimises the fuel consumption.
When the function is on, the
corresponding LED on the button lights.
This function is memorised, so when
the vehicle is started again, the system
keeps the setting it had before the
engine was stopped. Press the ECO
button again to deactivate the function
and restore the normal driving setting.
IMPORTANT If the battery is
disconnected/reconnected, the ECO
function will be turned off, restoring the
normal diving settings.IMPORTANT For versions equipped
with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), the
ECO function also acts on the
acceleration responsiveness of the
Adaptive Cruise Control. If you prefer a
more responsive behaviour, you can
turn off the ECO function or operate the
accelerator pedal. In the latter case,
normal Adaptive Cruise Control
operation will resume when the pedal is
released.

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

Amber warning lights
Warning light What it means
amberGENERAL FAILURE
When this warning light or symbol starts flashing, for versions/markets where provided, this indicates an
airbag warning light fault. In this case, the airbag may not indicate possible airbag system malfunctions.
Contact a Fiat Dealership immediately.
When this warning light or symbol turn on, it can indicate the intervention or a problem concerning the fuel
cut-off system or an engine oil pressure sensor failure.
amberiTPMS
iTPMS failure/iTPMS temporarily deactivated
The warning light flashes for about 75 seconds and then stays on constantly (together with a message on
the display) to indicate that the system is temporarily deactivated or faulty. The system will go back to
normal operation when the operating conditions will allow it. If this is not the case, carry out the “Reset”
procedure after restoring the normal operating conditions.
If the malfunction warning persists, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
Tyre pressure low
The warning light switches on constantly to indicate that the pressure of one or more tyres is lower than the
recommended value and/or that slow pressure loss is occurring. In these cases, optimal tyre duration and
fuel consumption may not be guaranteed. It is advisable to restore the correct pressure value (see the
"Wheels" paragraph in the "Technical specifications" section). Once the normal operating conditions of the
vehicle are restored, carry out the "Reset" procedure.
WARNING Do not continue driving with one or more flat tyres as the car handling may be compromised.
Stop the vehicle, avoiding sharp braking and steering.
amberABS FAILURE
The warning light switches on to indicate an ABS fault. In this case the braking system maintains its
efficiency unaltered but without the advantage of the ABS system. Drive carefully and contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
60
KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
WARNING
62)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.
63)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).
64)The system intervenes on vehicles
travelling in the same lane. People, animals
and things (e.g. pushchairs) are not taken
into consideration.
65)If the car must be placed on a roller
bench for maintenance interventions or if it
is washed in an automatic roller washing
tunnel with an obstacle in the front part
(e.g. another car, a wall or another
obstacle), the system may detect its
presence and activate. In this case the
system must be deactivated through the
settings of theUconnect™5"or7" HD
system.
66)If the iTMPS system signals a pressure
decrease on the tyres, it is recommended
to check the pressure on all four tyres.
67)The iTPMS does not relieve the driver
from the obligation to check the tyre
pressure every month; it is not even to be
considered a replacing system for
maintenance or a safety system.68)Tyre pressure must be checked with
tyres cold. Should it become necessary for
whatever reason to check pressure with
warm tyres, do not reduce pressure even
though it is higher than the prescribed
value, but repeat the check when tyres are
cold
69)The iTPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre
pressure drops (e.g. if a tyre bursts). In this
case, stop the vehicle, braking with caution
and avoiding abrupt steering.
70)The system only warns that the tyre
pressure is low: it is not able to inflate
them.
71)Insufficient tyre inflation increases fuel
consumption, reduces the tread duration
and may affect the capacity to drive safely.
IMPORTANT
28)The system may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such
as: heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow.
29)The section of the bumper before the
sensor must not be covered with
adhesives, auxiliary headlights or any other
object.
30)System intervention might be
unexpected or delayed when other vehicles
transport loads projecting from the side,
above or from the rear, with respect to the
normal size of the vehicle.
31)Operation can be adversely affected by
any structural change made to the vehicle,
such as a modification to the front
geometry, tyre change, or a heavier load
than the standard load of the vehicle.32)Incorrect repairs made on the front part
of the vehicle (e.g. bumper, chassis) may
alter the position of the radar sensor, and
adversely affect its operation. Go to a Fiat
Dealership for any operation of this type.
33)Do not tamper nor operate on the radar
sensor. In the event of a sensor failure,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
34)When towing a trailer (with modules
installed after purchasing the vehicle), a
vehicle or during loading manoeuvres on a
vehicle transporter (or in vehicle for
transport), the system must be deactivated
via theUconnect™5"or7" HDsystem.
35)Do not wash with high-pressure jets in
the bumper lower area: in particular do not
operate on the system's electrical
connector.
36)Be careful in the case of repairs and
new paintings in the area around the
sensor (panel covering the sensor on the
left side of the bumper). In the event of a
frontal impact the sensor may automatically
deactivate and display a warning to indicate
that the sensor needs to be repaired. Even
without a malfunction warning, deactivate
the system operation if you think that the
position of the radar sensor has changed
(e.g. due to low-speed frontal impact as
during parking manoeuvres). In these
cases, go to a Fiat Dealership to have the
radar sensor realigned or replaced.

SAFETY FUNCTIONS
When the engine is stopped through
the Stop/Start system, if the driver
releases their seat belt or opens the
driver's or passenger's door, the engine
can be restarted only by using the
ignition device.
This condition is indicated to the driver
both through a buzzer and a message
on the display.
"ENERGY SAVING"
FUNCTION
If, following the automatic engine
restarting, the driver does not carry out
any action for more than 3 minutes, the
Stop/Start system stops the engine
definitely, to prevent fuel consumption.
In these cases, the engine can only be
restarted using the ignition device.
NOTE In any case, it is possible to keep
the engine running by deactivating the
system.
IRREGULAR OPERATION
In the event of malfunction, the
Stop/Start system is deactivated.
For failure indications, see the "Warning
lights and messages" paragraph,
"Knowing the instrument panel"
chapter.
VEHICLE INACTIVITY
122)
In the event of vehicle inactivity (or if the
battery is replaced), special attention
must be paid to the disconnection of
the battery power supply.
WARNING
122)If the battery needs to be replaced,
always contact a Fiat Dealership. Replace
the battery with a new one of the same
type and specifications.
IMPORTANT
48)If the climate comfort is to be favoured,
the Start&Stop system can be deactivated,
for a continuous operation of the climate
control system.
SPEED LIMITER
DESCRIPTION
This device allows the speed of the
vehicle to be limited to values which
can be set by the driver.
The maximum speed can be set both
with vehicle stationary and in motion.
The minimum speed that can be set is
30 km/h.
When the device is active, the vehicle
speed depends on the pressure at the
accelerator pedal, until the
programmed speed limit is reached
(see "Speed limit programming"
paragraph).
ACTIVATING THE DEVICE
To activate the device press button 1
