Automatic main beam headlights
(where provided)
In order not to disturb other road users,
the main beam headlights are
automatically turned off when
approaching oncoming vehicles or
when following a vehicle travelling in the
same direction.
This function can be set using the
display Menu (see the instructions in the
"Display" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter); to activate
it, turn the light switch ring to AUTO.
To activate the function, push the lever
towards the instrument panel (it will
hold this position): the
light
illuminates on the instrument panel. If
the main beam headlights are on, the
light also illuminates. If the car is
stopped with the setting just described,
when it is restarted the automatic main
beam headlight function will have to be
set again: return the lever to the central
position and push it towards the
instrument panel as before.
When the speed is over 40 km/h and
the function is active, returning the lever
to the stable central position
deactivates the function and switches
the main beam headlights off.When the speed is lower than 15 km/h
and the function is active, the system
automatically switches main beam
headlights off.
If the lever is pulled back to the central
stable position and then pushed
towards the instrument panel again and
left there, this is interpreted as a request
for permanent main beam headlights:
the light illuminates on the instrument
panel and the main beam headlights
remain on until the car's speed rises
back above 40 km/h. Above this speed,
the function is automatically reactivated
and the
light illuminates again on
the instrument panel.
To disable the function, turn the light
switch ring to the
position.
DIRECTION INDICATORS
Bring left lever A fig. 29 to the (stable)
position:
upwards: activates the right direction
indicator;
downwards: activates the left direction
indicator.
The
orwarning light respectively
will flash on the instrument panel.
The direction indicators switch off
automatically when the steering wheel
is straightened or when the daytime
running lights (DRL) are switched on."Lane Change" function
To indicate a change of lane with the
car moving, move the left lever to the
non-stable position for less than half a
second.
The direction indicator on the side
selected will be activated for 5 flashes
and then go out automatically.
COURTESY LIGHTS
With the ignition device in the MAR
position, this function can be used to
activate the side/tail lights and the
number plate lights for 25 seconds
whenever the doors are unlocked using
the remote control or the Keyless Entry
function.
The courtesy light function can be
adjusted through the display Menu or
theUconnect™system.
The function is automatically disabled
once the activation time elapses
(25 seconds), or when the car doors
are locked again, or by turning the
ignition device to a position other than
MAR.

DISPLAY
DESCRIPTION
The vehicle is equipped with a display
that can show useful information to the
driver while driving.
The display fig. 52 will show the
following information:
A: time, Gear Shift Indicator (where
provided), gear engagement (versions
with automatic transmission only),
outdoor temperature, compass
readings (where provided), date.
B: vehicle speed, warning
messages/any failure indications.
C: total kilometres (or miles) run and
icons of any failure indications.
GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
(where provided)
The Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) system
advises the driver when to change gear
through a special indication on the
display
Through the GSI, the driver is informed
that the gear change will allow a
reduction in fuel consumption to be
obtained.
When the SHIFT UP icon (
SHIFT) is
shown on the display, the GSI is
advising the driver to engage a higher
gear, while the SHIFT DOWN (
SHIFT) icon advises the driver to
engage 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.
CONTROL BUTTONS
These are located on the left side of the
steering wheel fig. 53.
They allow the driver to select and
interact with the items in the Main menu
of the display (see paragraph "Main
menu").

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

WARNING
28)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.
29)The fault of the
warning light is signalled by the switching on of theicon on the instrument panel. 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.
30)If a failure is present with sharp braking, the rear wheels may lock and the vehicle may swerve.
IMPORTANT
13)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.
14)If the warning light (or the icon on the display) flashes whilst driving, contact a Fiat Dealership.
15)If the symbol switches on when driving, stop the engine immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
16)Driving the vehicle with this symbol on may severely damage the gearbox, with resulting breakage. The oil may also overheat: contact with
hot engine or with exhaust components at high temperature could cause fires.
17)The presence of water in the fuel system circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular engine operation. If the
symbol is displayed contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to bleed the system. If the above indications come on immediately after
refuelling, water has probably been poured into the tank: switch the engine off immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
18)Vehicle travel speed should always be adapted to the traffic and weather conditions, and must always comply with traffic regulations. The
engine can be stopped even if the DPF warning light is on: however, repeated interruptions of the regeneration process could cause
premature deterioration of the engine oil. For this reason it is always advisable to wait for the symbol to go off before turning off the engine,
following the instructions above. Do not complete the DPF regeneration process when the vehicle is stopped.
19)If the
warning light comes on, the exhausted engine oil should be changed as soon as possible, never drive more than 500 km from
the first switching-on of this warning light. Failure to observe the above may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the warranty.
Remember that when this warning light comes on, it does not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if it flashes you do not
need to top up the engine oil.
20)If the symbol flashes when driving, contact a Fiat Dealership.
21)When the AdBlue® (UREA) tank is empty and the engine is stopped it is no longer possible to restart it until the AdBlue® (UREA) tank is
topped up with at least 5 litres of AdBlue® (UREA).

Important notesThe system has not been designed
to prevent impacts and cannot detect
possible conditions leading to an
accident in advance. Failure to take into
account this warning may lead to
serious or fatal injuries.
The system may be activated,
assessing the trajectory of the car, in
case of reflecting metal objects different
from other cars, such as safety barriers,
road signs, barriers before parking lots,
toll-gates, level crossings, gates,
railways, objects near road
constructions sites or higher than the
car (e.g. a flyover). In the same way, the
system may intervene inside
multi-storey car parks or tunnels, or due
to a glare on the road surface. These
possible activations follow the normal
operating logic of the system and must
not be regarded as faults.
The system has been designed for
road use only. If the car is driven
off-road, the system must be
deactivated, to avoid unnecessary
warnings. Automatic deactivation is
signalled by the dedicated warning
light/icon switching on in the instrument
panel (see the instructions in the
"Warning lights and messages"
paragraph, "Knowing the instrument
panel" chapter).
TPMS (Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System)
62) 63) 64) 65) 66) 67)
Description
The car can be equipped with the
iTPMS (indirect Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System) which monitors the
tyre inflation status thanks to wheel
speed sensors.
Correct tyre pressure
If no under-inflated tyres are detected,
the outline of the car will be shown on
the display.
Low tyre pressure
The system warns the driver if one or
more tyres are flat by switching on the
warning light on the instrument
panel and a warning message on the
display, along with an acoustic signal.This warning is displayed also when
turning the engine off and on again until
the RESET procedure is carried out.
Reset procedure
The iTPMS needs an initial
"self-learning" phase (with length
depending on the driving style and road
conditions: optimal conditions being
driving on a straight road at 80 km/h for
at least 20 minutes) which starts when
the RESET procedure is carried out
manually.
The RESET procedure must be carried
out:
each time tyre pressure is modified;
when even only one tyre is changed;
when tyres are rotated/inverted;
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 Main Menu as
follows:

PRE-TENSIONERS
The car is equipped with seat belt
pretensioners for the front and rear side
seats. These draw the seat belts back
by several centimetres in the event of a
strong frontal impact to ensure that the
seat belts adhere perfectly to the
occupants' bodies before retention
begins.
It is evident that the pretensioners have
been activated when the belt withdraws
toward the retractor.
The front car seats are also equipped
with a second pretensioner (fitted in the
kick plate area). Its activation is
signalled by the metal cable shortening.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the
pretensioner which is not harmful and
does not involve any fire hazard.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication: any
changes to its original conditions will
invalidate its efficiency.
If, due to unusual natural events (floods,
sea storms, etc.), the device has been
affected by water and/or mud, contact
a Fiat Dealership to have it replaced.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action of
the pretensioner, wear the seat belt
tight to the chest and pelvis.
LOAD LIMITERS
72)
31)
To increase safety in the event of an
accident, the front and rear lateral seat
belt retractors contain a load limiter
which controls the force acting on the
chest and shoulders during the belt
restraining action in the event of a
head-on collision.
GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USING THE SEAT BELTS
73) 74) 75)
Seat belts are also to be worn by
pregnant women: the risk of injury in the
case of impact is greatly reduced for
them and the unborn child if they are
wearing a seat belt.
Pregnant women must position the
lower part of the belt very low down so
that it passes over the pelvis and under
the abdomen fig. 69. While pregnancy
progresses, the driver must adjust both
seat and steering wheel to have full
control over the car (pedals and
steering wheel must be easy to
access). The maximum clearance
should be kept between the abdomen
and the steering wheel.
The seat belt strap must not be twisted.
The upper part must pass over theshoulder and cross the chest
diagonally. The lower part must adhere
to the pelvis fig. 70, not to the
abdomen of the occupant. Do not use
devices (clips, etc.) to hold the seat belt
away from your body.
Each seat belt must be used by only
one person. Never travel with a child
sitting on the passenger's lap and a
single belt to protect them both fig. 71.69F1B0107C

SAFETY

To select the "sequential" mode, shift
the lever from D (Drive) towards the left.
The reachable positions are + (higher
gear) or - (lower gear). These positions
are unstable: the lever always returns to
central position.
The lever has a button A fig. 93, which
must be pressed to move the lever to P
or R.
Shifting from P to any other position of
the selector lever, with ignition key in
MAR-ON position, must be made
pressing the brake pedal and using the
button on A fig. 93.
To shift from R to P, it is necessary to
push button A fig. 93 when engine is at
idle speed.
To shift from position N to D or R, you
need to press the brake pedal. It is
advisable not to accelerate and to
make sure that the engine is stabilised
at idle speed.
Shifting from D to N is free, while
shifting from D to R or P can only be
made by the button A fig. 93.
AUTOMATIC DRIVING
MODE
To select the automatic driving mode,
you need to shift the gear lever to D
(Drive): the best ratio is selected by the
electronic transmission control unit
depending on vehicle speed, engine
load (accelerator pedal position) and
gradient of the road.D can be selected from sequential
operation in any driving conditions.
“Kick-Down” function
To resume speed quickly, when the
accelerator pedal is pressed fully, the
transmission control system downshifts
(kick-down function).
IMPORTANT When driving on roads
with poor grip conditions (snow, ice,
etc.) avoid activating the kick-down
function.
Gearshifting suggestion
With the transmission in automatic
mode (selector lever in position D),
when gearshifting is required by the
paddles on the steering wheel (where
provided), the system shifts to
"Sequential mode" ("Autostick"),
displaying the engaged gear for about
5 seconds.
When this time has elapsed, if the
paddles are not operated anymore, the
system goes back to the automatic
mode (D), with following displaying.
AUTOSTICK - Sequential
mode
In the case of frequent gearshifting (e.g.
when the vehicle is driven with a heavy
load, on slopes, with strong headwind
or when towing heavy trailers), it is
recommended to use the Autostick
(sequential shifting) mode to select and
keep a lower fixed ratio.In these conditions, using a lower gear
improves vehicle performance and
prolongs the transmission's life, limiting
gearshifting and preventing overheating.
It is possible to shift from position D
(Drive) to the sequential mode
regardless of vehicle speed.
Activation
With gear lever in position D (Drive), to
activate the sequential drive mode,
move the lever to the left (– and +
indication of the trim). The gear
engaged will be shown on the display.
Gearshifting is made by moving the
gear lever forwards, towards symbol –
or backwards, towards symbol +.
Off
To deactivate the sequential driving
mode, bring the gear lever back to
position D (Drive), automatic mode.
CONTROLS ON THE
STEERING WHEEL

DEACTIVATING THE
DEVICE
Lightly pressing the brake pedal or
pressing the CANC button deactivates
the electronic Cruise Control without
deleting the stored speed.
The Cruise Control may be deactivated
also by applying the electric parking
brake (EPB) or when the braking
system is operated (e.g. operation of
the ESC system).
DEACTIVATING THE
DEVICE
The electronic Cruise Control is
deactivated by pressing button A
fig. 97 or bringing the ignition device to
STOP.
WARNING
120)When travelling with the device active,
never move the gear lever to neutral.
121)In case of a malfunction or failure of
the device, contact a Fiat Dealership.
122)The electronic Cruise Control can be
dangerous if the system cannot keep a
