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).

amberEBD FAILURE
The simultaneous switching on of the
(red),
(amber) and(amber) warning lights with the
engine on indicates either an anomaly of the EBD
system or that the system is not available. In this case,
the rear wheels may suddenly lock and the vehicle
may swerve when braking sharply.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.Drive very carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to
have the system inspected immediately.
redAIR BAG FAILURE
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 stays on constantly if there is a failure
in the airbag system.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.

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
redLOW ENGINE OIL LEVEL
When turning the ignition key to MAR, the warning
light turns on but it should go off after a few seconds.
This warning light appears on the panel when the
engine oil level falls below the minimum recommended
value.
On certain versions a dedicated message is displayed.Restore the correct engine oil level (see “Checking fluid
levels” in the "Servicing and care" section).
redDOOR OPEN
On certain versions, the warning light turns on when
one or more doors or the boot are not properly closed.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.Check that all doors or the boot (for versions/markets,
where provided) are perfectly closed.
redPOWER STEERING FAILURE
When the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON the
warning light on the dial turns on, but it should turn off
after a few seconds.
If the warning light stays on together with the message
shown on the display and a buzzer, the power steering
is ineffective and the effort on the steering wheel
increases significantly even though the vehicle can be
steered.Contact a Fiat Dealership.

amberINJECTION SYSTEM FAULT (Multijet versions) - EOBD
ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM FAULT (petrol versions)
In normal conditions, when the ignition key is turned to
MAR the warning light switches on, but it should
switch off as soon as the engine is started.
10)
Injection system failure
(Multijet versions)
If the warning light stays on or comes on when
travelling, it means there is a fault in the injection
system which could cause loss of performance, poor
handling and high fuel consumption levels.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.Under these conditions, the vehicle can continue
travelling at moderate speed without demanding
excessive effort from the engine. Prolonged use of the
vehicle with the warning light on may cause damage.

What it means What to do
amberEOBD ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM FAILURE
(petrol versions)
This indicates that the warning light is working
correctly. If the warning light stays on or turns on when
travelling:
fixed: this means there is a fault in the supply/
ignition system which could cause high exhaust
emissions, loss of performance, poor handling and
high fuel consumption levels. On some versions the
display shows the dedicated message. Under these
conditions, the vehicle can continue travelling at
moderate speed without demanding excessive effort
from the engine. Prolonged use of the vehicle with the
warning light on may cause damage.
blinking: this indicates possible damage to the
catalytic converter (see “EOBD system” in the
“Knowing the instrument panel” chapter). If the light is
on and blinking, release the accelerator pedal to lower
the speed of the engine until the warning light stops
flashing.If the light is fixed, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible. The warning light switches off if the
malfunction disappears, but is still stored by the
system.
If the light is blinking: 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.
amberUREA INJECTION SYSTEM FAILURE (Diesel versions)
The warning light switches on, together with a
dedicated message on the instrument panel (for
versions/markets, where provided) if a fluid not
conforming with the nominal characteristics is poured
in or if average UREA consumption over 50% is
detected.Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
If the problem is not solved, a specific message will
appear on the instrument panel display whenever a
certain threshold is reached until it will no longer be
possible to start the engine.
When 200 km will remain to prevent the engine restart,
a continuous dedicated message will appear on the
dashboard (for versions/markets, where provided)
accompanied by an acoustic warning sound.

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 will light up when the system is either
not working or not available. In this case the braking
system maintains its efficiency unaltered but without
the advantage of the ABS system.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.Drive carefully and contact a Fiat Dealership as soon
as possible.
amberFUEL RESERVE
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 about6-7
litres of fuel are left in the tank.
The triangle on the right side of the symbol
indicates the side of the vehicle with the fuel filler.The warning light will blink to indicate a system fault. If
this is the case, go to a Fiat Dealership to have the
system checked.
