GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
The GSI (Gear Shift Indicator) system
advises the driver to change gear
through a specific indication on the
instrument panel. Through the GSI, the
driver is informed that shifting gear
will allow a reduction in fuel
consumption.
"SHIFT UP" icon
SHIFT: the GSI
suggests shifting up.
"SHIFT DOWN" icon
SHIFT: the
GSI suggests shifting down. The icon
remains displayed until a gear is shifted
or the driving conditions go back to a
situation where gearshifting is not
required, to improve consumption.CONTROL BUTTONS

When the ignition key is turned to the
MAR-ON position, the display shows
the last Menu option active before
the engine was switched off.
NOTE With theUconnect™system,
some Menu items are shown and
managed on the display of the latter
and not on the instrument panel display
(refer to the Multimedia chapter or to
the supplement available online).
Vehicle Settings
This menu item allows you to change
the settings for:
"Display"
"Safety / Assistance"
"Security"Display
By selecting item "Display" you can
access the settings/information
regarding: “Dimmer” (for versions/
markets, where provided), “Screen
Setup”, “See phone”, “See navigation”,
“Reset trip B automatic".
Safety / Assistance
By selecting “Safety / Assistance" you
can access the settings/information
regarding: “City Brake Control” (for
versions/markets, where provided),
“Parking sensor volume”, “Buzzer
volume”.
Safety
By selecting item "Security" you can
access the settings/information
regarding: “Hill Holder” (for versions/
markets, where provided), “Passenger
AIRBAG” (for versions/markets, where
provided), “Seat belt buzzer”, “Speed
beep”.
IMPORTANT Failure to top up the
engine oil could result in a low level,
which could prevent normal car
operation and even cause it to stop.
TRIP COMPUTER
The Trip computer is used to display
information on car operation when the
ignition key is turned to MAR.The Trip computer comprises:
Instantaneous info: displays the
“Range” and “Instantaneous
consumption" parameters.
"Trip A" displays the following
values: “Distance travelled”, “Travel
time”, “Average fuel consumption” and
“Average speed”
"Trip B" displays the following
values: “Distance travelled”, “Journey
time”, “Average fuel consumption” and
“Average speed”.
“Trip A” and “Trip B” monitor the car's
"complete missions" (trips) separately
from each other. The “Trip B” function
may be excluded.
The "Range" is also calculated and
displayed with the car at a standstill
and the engine running.
Reset “Trip A” / “Trip B”
Both functions can be reset (reset
means start of a new journey). To reset
the values, press and hold down the
OKbutton on the steering wheel (see
"Control buttons" section). The reset
only applies to the values displayed
(“Trip A” or “Trip: B”).
NOTE “Range” and “Instantaneous fuel
consumption" parameters cannot be
reset.

SETUP MENU
The Setup Menu includes the following
items:

Amber warning lights
Warning light What it means
amberiTPMS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds.
iTPMS failure/iTPMS temporarily deactivated
The warning light flashes for about 75 seconds and then stays on constantly 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 tyre pressure 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.
IMPORTANT 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.
Warning light What it means
amberREAR FOG LIGHT
The warning light switches on when the rear fog light is activated.
51

34)The iTPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre
pressure drops (for example when a tyre
bursts). In this case, stop the vehicle,
braking with caution and avoiding abrupt
steering.
35)The iTPMS system only warns that the
tyre pressure is low: it cannot inflate
them.
36)Insufficient tyre inflation increases fuel
consumption, reduces the tread duration
and may affect the capacity to drive safely.OCCUPANT
PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
Some of the most important safety
equipment of the car comprise the
following protection systems:
seat belts;
SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;
head restraints;
child restraint systems;
Front airbags and side bags.
Read the information given the
following pages with the utmost care. It
is of fundamental importance that the
protection systems are used in the
correct way to guarantee the maximum
possible safety level for the driver and
the passengers.
For the description of the head restraint
adjustment see the "Head restraints"
paragraph in the "Knowing your car"
chapter.
SEAT BELTS
62) 63)
All vehicle seats are equipped with seat
belts with three anchor points and a
retractor.
The reel mechanism operates locking
the belt in the event of sharp braking or
strong deceleration due to an impact.
This allows the seat belt strap to slide
freely and to adapt to the body of
the occupant. In the event of an
accident, the seat belt will lock reducing
the risk of impact inside the passenger
compartment and of being projected
outside the car.
The driver is responsible for respecting,
and ensuring that all the other
occupants of the vehicle also respect,
the local laws in force in relation to
the use of the seat belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off.
USING THE SEAT BELTS
The seat belt should be worn keeping
the chest straight and rested against
the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the
tongue A fig. 62 and insert it into the
buckle B, until it clicks into place.
If the belt jams while being removed, let
it rewind for a short stretch, then pull
it out again without jerking.

SAFETY

in driving conditions, push the gear
lever towards (+) to engage the next
gear up or towards (–) to engage the
next gear down.
IMPORTANT For the correct use of the
system only use your right foot to
operate the pedal unit.
AUTOMATIC MODE
(AUTO)
Proceed as follows:
press the brake pedal and start the
engine;
push the gear lever towards (+) to
engage first gear (if starting from N
or R, simply place the lever in the
middle position) or R to engage reverse;
in case of forward gear, the view on
the display must be “A1”, “A2” (see
figure), etc. If this is not so, move the
A/M to activate automatic mode;
release the brake pedal and press
the accelerator pedal: the gear most
suited to the vehicle speed will be
engaged.
AUTO-ECO OPERATION
To activate the function press the ECO
button fig. 90. The ECO function can be
only activated only with automatic
mode active.With the ECO function active, the
system will select the most suitable
gear depending on the vehicle speed,
engine rpm and intensity with which the
accelerator pedal is pressed, with the
aim of limiting fuel consumption.
“Kick Down” FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If necessary (e.g. when overtaking),
the system downshifts one or more
gears when the accelerator is
depressed beyond the point where it
becomes stiff (and if the rpm allow it) in
order to provide suitable power and
torque for the required acceleration.
IMPORTANT The use of the “Kick
Down” function is recommended only
when overtaking or accelerating quickly,
in order not to increase fuel
consumption.STEERING WHEEL
CONTROLS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
45)
On some versions, the gearbox can be
managed sequentially using the
steering wheel controls fig. 91.
To use the controls on the steering
wheel, the gear lever must be in the
central position between (+) and (–).
To engage a higher gear: pull the
right stalk (+) toward the steering wheel.
To engage a lower gear: pull the
right stalk (-) toward the steering wheel.
The engagement of a lower (or higher)
gear is only permitted if the engine
revs allow it.
