REFUELLING
Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with an octane rating (RON) of no less than 95 conforming to the European specification EN
228.
Diesel engines: only use diesel fuel for motor vehicles conforming to the European specification EN 590. The use of other products or
mixtures may damage the engine beyond repair and consequently invalidate the warranty, due to the damage caused.
Refuelling with methane: refuel only with methane for motor vehicles. The use of other products or mixtures may damage the engine
beyond repair and consequently invalidate the warranty, due to the damage caused.
For further details on the use of the correct fuel see the "Refuelling the vehicle" paragraph in the "Starting and driving" chapter.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Versions with manual transmission (petrol engines): make sure that the handbrake is engaged; put the gear lever in neutral; fully
depress the clutch pedal without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.
Versions with manual transmission (Diesel engines): Turn the ignition key to MAR and wait for the warning light
to go out. Turn
the ignition key to AVV and release as soon as the engine starts.
Versions with Comfort-matic transmission: make sure that the handbrake is engaged and that the gear lever is in P (Park) or N (Neutral).
Then depress the brake pedal, turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine starts.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high temperatures during operation. Do not park on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flammable
material: fire hazard.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is fitted with a system that allows continuous diagnosis of the emission-related components in order to help protect the
environment.
ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the vehicle, you decide to add electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually draining the battery), visit a Fiat Dealership. They
can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the vehicle's electrical system can support the required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance enables the vehicle to perfectly maintain performance and safety characteristics, its environmental friendliness and low
running costs over time.
THE OWNER HANDBOOK CONTAINS
... important information, advice and warnings for correct use, driving safety and maintenance of your vehicle over time. Special attention
must be paid to the symbols(safety of persons)(environmental protection)(vehicle integrity).

USE OF THE OWNER HANDBOOK
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Each time direction instructions (left/right or forwards/backwards) about the vehicle are given, these must be intended as
regarding an occupant in the driver's seat. Special cases not complying with this rule will be specified as appropriate in the text.
The figures in the Owner Handbook are provided by way of example only: this might imply that some details of the image do
not correspond to the actual arrangement of your vehicle. In addition, the Handbook has been conceived considering cars with
steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore possible that on cars with steering wheel on the right side, the position or
construction of some controls is not exactly mirror-like with respect to the figure.
To identify the chapter with the information needed you can consult the index at the end of this Owner Handbook.
Chapters can be rapidly identified with dedicated graphic tabs, at the side of each odd page. A few pages further there is a key
for getting to know the chapter order and the relevant symbols in the tabs. There is in any case a textual indication of the
current chapter at the side of each even page.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
While reading this Owner Handbook you will find a series ofWARNINGSto prevent procedures that could damage your
vehicle.
There are alsoPRECAUTIONSthat must be carefully followed to prevent incorrect use of the components of the vehicle,
which could cause accidents or injuries.
Therefore allWARNINGSandPRECAUTIONSmust always be carefully followed.
WARNINGSandPRECAUTIONSare recalled in the text with the following symbols:

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE

Unlocking/locking the load
compartment from inside the
vehicle (Cargo version)
Press the button fig. 4 (Cargo version)
to unlock the load compartment (rear
swing doors/boot and sliding side
doors) from the inside. Press again to
lock all doors of the vehicle.
REQUEST FOR
ADDITIONAL REMOTE
CONTROLS
The system can acknowledge up to 8
remote controls. Should a new remote
control be necessary, contact a Fiat
Dealership, taking a personal identity
document and the vehicle ownership
documents with you.DEAD LOCK DEVICE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This security device prevents the
opening of the doors from inside the
passenger compartment if there has
been a break-in attempt (e.g. a window
has been broken).
The dead lock device therefore offers
the best possible protection against
break in attempts. We recommend
engaging it whenever the vehicle is
parked and left unattended.
2) 3)
Turning the device on
The system is automatically enabled on
all the doors by pressing button
twice on the key with remote control.
The direction indicators flash twice to
let you know that the device is active.
If one or more of the doors is not
perfectly shut, the dead lock device will
not be activated, thus preventing a
person getting into the car through the
open door and, on shutting, it,
remaining stuck inside the passenger
compartment.
Turning the device off
The system is disabled automatically on
every door when:
by unlocking the doors;
by turning the ignition key to the
MAR position.
WARNING
1)Button B should only be pressed when
the key is away from the body, in particular
from the eyes and from objects that can
be spoilt (e.g. clothes). Do not leave the
key unattended to avoid the button being
accidentally pressed while it is being
handled, e.g. by a child.
2)Once the dead lock system is engaged it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the vehicle. Before engaging the
system please therefore check that there is
no one left on board.
3)If the remote control battery is flat, the
system can be engaged by inserting the
metal key in the door lock as described
previously: in this case, the device only
remains active for the rear doors.
WARNING
1)Used batteries are harmful to the
environment. You can dispose of them
either in the correct containers as specified
by law or by taking them to a Fiat
Dealership, which will deal with their
disposal.

IGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 3 different
positions fig. 5:
STOP: engine off, key can be
removed, steering column locked.
Some electrical devices (e.g. car radio,
central door locking system, alarm,
etc.) can work.
MAR: driving position. All electric
devices can operate.
AVV: engine starting. The ignition
device is fitted with a safety system that
requires the ignition key to be turned
back to STOP if the engine does not
start, before the starting operation can
be repeated.STEERING LOCK
Activation
When the device is at STOP, remove
the key and turn the steering wheel until
it locks.
Turning off
Move the steering wheel slightly as you
turn the ignition key to MAR-ON
4)
WARNING
4)Never extract the key while the vehicle
is moving. The steering wheel will
automatically lock as soon as it is turned.
This also applies to cases in which the
vehicle is towed. It is absolutely forbidden
to carry out any after-market operation
involving steering system or steering
column modifications (e.g. installation of
anti-theft device) that could adversely
affect performance, invalidate the warranty,
cause serious safety problems and also
result in the car not meeting type-approval
requirements.
THE FIAT CODE
SYSTEM
This is an electrical engine locking
system which increases protection
against attempted theft of the vehicle. It
is automatically activated when the
key is removed from the ignition device.
Each time the vehicle is started turning
the ignition key toMAR-ON, the Fiat
CODE system control unit sends a
recognition code to the Powertrain
Control Module to deactivate the
immobiliser.
If, during ignition, the code is not
correctly recognised, the warning light
lights up on the instrument panel.
In this case, turn the key toSTOP
and then back toMAR;ifthe
lock continues, try with the other keys
provided with the vehicle. Contact a
Fiat Dealership if you still cannot start
the engine.
IMPORTANT Each key has its own
code which must be stored by the
system's control unit. Contact a Fiat
Dealership to have new keys (up to 8)
stored with a code.

Activation of thewarning light while
driving
If thewarning light (or symbol in
the display) comes on, this means
that the system is running a self-
diagnosis test (caused, for example, by
a voltage drop). When you stop for
the first time, turn the key to STOP and
then to MAR: the warning light
will
not light up if no faults are detected.
If the warning light(or symbol on
the display) stays on, repeat the
procedure described above leaving the
key at STOP for longer than 30
seconds. If the problem persists,
contact the Fiat Dealership.
The code is not recognised if the
warning light
(or symbol on the
display) stays on. In this case, turn the
key to STOP and then to MAR; if it is
still locked, try again with the other keys
that come with the vehicle. If you still
cannot start the engine, perform the
emergency start procedure (see
chapter “In an emergency”) and then
contact the Fiat Dealership.

ALARM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The alarm, in addition to all the
previously described remote control
functions, is controlled by the receiver
located under the dashboard near
the fuse box.
IMPORTANT The engine stop function
is guaranteed by the Fiat CODE, which
is automatically activated when the
ignition key is extracted from the
ignition switch.
TURNING THE ALARM ON
