TRIP COMPUTER
General information
The Trip computer is used to display
information on vehicle operation when
the ignition key is turned to MAR.
This function allows you to define two
separate trips, called "Trip A" and
"Trip B", for monitoring the "complete
mission" (journey) of the vehicle in a
reciprocally independent manner. Both
functions can be reset (reset means
start of a new journey).
"Trip A" can be used to display the
values relating to:
External temperature (for Natural
Power vehicles with temperature
sensor)
Range
Distance travelled
Average fuel consumption
Instant consumption
Average speed
Trip time (driving time).
"Trip B", available on multifunction
display only, is used to display
the values relating to:
Distance travelled B
Average consumption B
Average speed B
Trip time B (driving time).

What it means What to do
red
redENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is
turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds. The warning light turns on when the engine
is overheated.
The display shows the dedicated message.In normal driving conditions: stop the car, switch off
the engine and check that the water level in the
reservoir is not below the MIN mark. In this case, wait
for a few minutes to allow the engine to cool down,
then slowly and carefully open the cap. Top up with
coolant fluid making sure that it is included between
the MIN and MAX lines on the vessel. Also check
visually for any fluid leaks. If, when restarting, the
warning light switches on again, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions (e.g.
towing trailers uphill or fully loaded): slow down and, if
the light stays on, stop the vehicle. Wait for 2 or 3
minutes with the engine running and slightly
accelerated to further favour the coolant circulation,
then stop the engine. Check that the coolant level is
correct as described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to
keep the engine on and slightly accelerated for a few
minutes before switching it off.
redLOW BATTERY CHARGE
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is
turned to MAR, but it should switch off as soon as the
engine has started (with the engine idling a brief delay
before switching off is acceptable).
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately.

What it means What to do
redINSUFFICIENT ENGINE OIL PRESSURE/ENGINE OIL
DETERIORATED
When the key is turned to MAR the warning light
comes on, but should go out as soon as the engine is
started.
Steady light: Low engine oil pressure
The warning light comes on fixed, together with a
message on the display (for versions/markets, where
provided) when the system detects insufficient engine
oil pressure.
37)
On blinking: Engine oil deteriorated
(for Multijet versions only)
The warning light starts to flash together with a
message on the display (for versions/markets, where
provided) when the system detects that the engine oil
has deteriorated.
If the warning light flashes, this does not mean that the
vehicle is faulty, but simply informs the driver that it is
now necessary to change the engine oil as a result of
regular vehicle use. If the oil is not changed, warning
light
will also come on and engine operation is
limited to 3000 rpm when a second threshold is
reached.
If the oil is still not changed, when a third deterioration
threshold is reached, the engine is limited to 1500 rpm
to avoid damage.Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
9)
Remember that the deterioration of the engine oil is
accelerated by:
– mainly town use of the vehicle which makes the DPF
regeneration process more frequent
– use of the vehicle for short trips, preventing the
engine from reaching operating temperature
– repeated interruption of the regeneration process,
signalled by the DPF warning light coming on.
