KNOWING YOUR CAR

Make sure that the bonnet is
completely closed and not only
fastened by the locking device by trying
to open it. If it is not perfectly closed,
do not try to press the bonnet lid down
but open it and repeat the procedure.
IMPORTANT Always check that the
bonnet is closed correctly to prevent it
from opening while the vehicle is
travelling.
WARNING
24)Perform these operations only when
the car is stationary.
25)The bonnet may drop suddenly if the
supporting rod is not positioned correctly.
26)Use both hands to lift the bonnet.
Before lifting, check that the windscreen
wiper arms are not raised from the
windscreen, that the vehicle is stationary
and that the parking brake is engaged.
27)For safety reasons, the bonnet must
always be properly closed while the car is
travelling. Therefore, make sure that the
bonnet is properly closed and that the lock
is engaged. If you discover that the bonnet
is not perfectly closed during travel, stop
immediately and close the bonnet in the
correct manner.
DUALDRIVE
ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING
This only operates with the key turned
to MAR and the engine started. The
electric steering allows the force
required at the steering wheel to be
adjusted to suit driving conditions.
IMPORTANT When turning the ignition
key quickly, full power steering
functionality can be achieved after a
few seconds.
IMPORTANT During parking
manoeuvres requiring a lot of steering,
the steering may become harder; this is
normal and is due to the intervention of
the system to protect the electric
steering motor from overheating. No
repair intervention is needed in this
case. When the car is used again, the
power steering will work normally again.
IMPORTANT The Dualdrive electric
power steering provides an electronic
damping effect when approaching the
end of travel. In some manoeuvring
conditions, the steering wheel may
perform an additional small rotation until
reaching its mechanical stop. This
behaviour is normal and is intended to
prevent excessive impacts with the
mechanical components located inside
the device.POWER STEERING
ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
28) 29)
Engagement/disengagement
Press the fig. 42 button.
The activation of the function is
signalled by a visual indication (CITY) on
the instrument panel or, based on the
version, on the display.
When the CITY function is on, the
steering wheel effort is lighter, making
parking easier: therefore, this function is
particularly useful for driving in city
centres.

In addition, when starting at outside
temperatures below approximately
–10°C, the switching times from petrol
to LPG increase to allow the pressure
regulator/reduction unit to heat up.
To change fuel type, press the
fig. 51 button on the dashboard with
the car stationary and engine running,
or while driving.
14) 15)
LPG FUEL RESERVE
When the residual quantity of LPG
drops below 1/5 of the tank capacity:
the first bar on the display 1
fig. 52 remains on;
the yellow warning lighton the
instrument panel turns on;
an acoustic signal is emitted.This condition will last until the next
LPG refuelling, also in the event of
petrol operation.
If the LPG runs out, the system
automatically switches to petrol and the
1 fig. 49 warning light on the
dashboard turns on.
SYSTEM FAILURE SIGNALLING
In the event of an LPG system failure,
the
symbol will be displayed and all
the level bars will turn off.
In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible, running on petrol.
REFUELLING
16) 17)
LPG
Maximum refuelling capacity (including
reserve): 42 litres. The figure already
takes into account the 80% tank filling
limit and the residual fluid required for
priming; this figure represents the
maximum permitted capacity. In
addition, after different refuelling
processes, this figure may vary due to
differences between the network pump
supply pressures, pumps having
different supply/locking features, tank
not completely run out of fuel.
IMPORTANT In order to avoid
inconsistent information by the LPG
gauge on the instrument panel, it is
recommended to refill with at least
10 litres each time.
WARNING
31)Note that in some countries (including
Italy) there are legal restrictions in force for
parking/garaging motor vehicles fuelled by
gas that is denser than air; LPG comes
under this category.
32)If gas is smelt, switch from LPG
operation to petrol operation and
immediately go to a Fiat Dealership to have
the vehicle checked and possible system
faults excluded.
IMPORTANT
10)The car is equipped with a gaseous
LPG injection system designed specifically
for it: it is therefore absolutely forbidden to
alter the configuration of the system or its
components. The use of other components
or materials could cause malfunctions and
lead to a reduction in safety; therefore, in
the case of problems, contact a Fiat
Dealership. To prevent damage to the gas
system parts when towing or raising the
vehicle, follow the instructions in the
"Towing the vehicle" paragraph of the
Owner Handbook.
11)The system operates at temperatures
ranging between −20°C and 100°C.

KNOWING YOUR CAR

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
IMPORTANT The warning light switches on in the instrument panel together with a dedicated message and/or acoustic signal
when applicable. These indications are indicative and precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or
alternative to the information contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. Always
refer to the information in this section in the event of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT Failure indications displayed are divided into two categories: very serious and less serious failures. Serious faults
are indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious faults are indicated by a warning "cycle" with a shorter
duration. The display cycle of both categories can be interrupted. The instrument panel warning light will stay on until the cause
of the failure is eliminated.
NOTE The warning lights and icons described below are indicative and can change based on the version or market.
Red warning lights
Warning light What it means
redINSUFFICIENT BRAKE FLUID / PARKING BRAKE ON
Low brake fluid level
The warning light turns on when the level of the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level,
possibly due to a leak in the circuit. Restore the brake fluid level, then check that the warning light has
switched off. If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership.
Parking brake on
The warning light switches on when the parking brake is engaged.
redPOWER STEERING FAILURE
This warning light (or symbol in the display) switches on when the ignition device is brought to MAR, but it
should switch off after a few seconds. If the warning light (or symbol on the display) remains on, you could
not have steering assistance and the effort required to operate the steering wheel could be increased;
steering is, however, possible. Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
redFAULT IN AT6 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light or symbol switches on to indicate that there is a failure in the automatic transmission.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.18)
51

Warning light What it means
redSEAT BELTS REMINDER
The warning light switches on constantly if the vehicle is stationary and the driver side or passenger side
seat belt (for versions/markets, where provided), with the passenger seated, is not fastened. The warning
light flashes and a buzzer will sound if the vehicle is in motion and the driver side or passenger side seat
belt (for versions/markets, where provided), with the passenger seated, is not correctly fastened. In this
case, fasten the seat belt.
redENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
The warning light (or the icon on the display on some versions) switches on when the engine is overheated.
In normal driving conditions: stop the car, switch off the engine and check that the coolant level in the
reservoir is not below the MIN mark. In this case, wait for the engine to cool down, then slowly and
carefully open the cap, top up with coolant and check that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the reservoir itself. Also check visually for any fluid leaks. If, when restarting, the warning light switches on
(or the icon is displayed) again, contact a Fiat Dealership.
If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions(e.g. in high-performance driving): slow down and,
if the warning light stays on, stop the vehicle. Stop for two or three minutes with the engine running and
slightly accelerated to facilitate better coolant circulation, then turn the engine off. Check that the coolant
level is correct as described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to keep the engine running and slightly accelerated for
a few minutes before turning it off.
redALTERNATOR FAILURE
If this warning light or symbol switches on when the engine is running, this indicates a vehicle recharging
system failure. Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
redDOOR OPEN
The warning light or the symbol turns on when one or more doors (or, for some versions also the bonnet
and the engine bonnet) are not perfectly closed (for versions/markets, where provided). An acoustic signal
is activated with the doors open and the car moving. Close the doors properly.
53

Warning light What it means
redAIR BAG FAILURE
If the warning light switches on constantly, this indicates a failure in the airbag system.
33) 34)
WARNING
33)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.
34)The failure of the
warning light is signalled by the lighting up of theicon on the instrument panel display (or, for versions where
provided, by the flashing of the generic failure warning light). 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.
Amber warning lights
Warning light What it means
amberGENERAL FAILURE
When this warning light or symbol starts flashing, for versions/markets where provided, this indicates an
airbag warning light fault. In this case, the airbag may not indicate possible airbag system malfunctions.
Contact a Fiat Dealership immediately.
When this warning light or symbol turn on, it can indicate the intervention or a problem concerning the fuel
cut-off system or an engine oil pressure sensor failure.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

Warning light What it means
amberINJECTION / EOBD SYSTEM FAILURE
In normal conditions, when the ignition device is brought to MAR, the warning light switches on, but it
should switch off as soon as the engine is started. The operation of the warning light may be checked by
the traffic police using specific devices. Comply with the laws and regulations of the country where you are
driving.
20)
Injection system failure
If the warning light remains on, or it switches on whilst driving, the injection system is not working properly.
The warning light on constantly signals a malfunction in the supply/ignition system which could cause high
exhaust emissions, a possible loss of performance, poor driveability and high consumption. The warning
light switches off if the malfunction disappears, but is still stored by the system. Under these conditions, the
vehicle can continue travelling at moderate speed but without demanding excessive effort from the engine
or high speed. Prolonged use of the car with the warning light on may cause damage. Contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
Catalytic converter damaged
If the warning light flashes, it means that the catalytic converter may be damaged. Release the accelerator
pedal to lower the speed of the engine until the warning light stops flashing. 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.
UREA INJECTION SYSTEM FAILURE (Diesel versions)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on, together with a dedicated message on the display (for versions/markets,
where provided) if a fluid not conforming with the nominal characteristics is inserted o if an average
consumption of UREA 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.
IMPORTANT
20)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.
57

In the event of an imminent impact the
system may intervene by braking the
car to prevent the crash or reduce its
effects.
When the system detects the risk of
collision, it gives the driver acoustic and
visual signals through specific
messages on the instrument panel
display. The warnings are intended to
allow the driver to react promptly, in
order to prevent or reduce the effects of
a potential accident.
If the system does not detect any
action by the driver, it can intervene by
braking automatically to attenuate the
potential accident (automatic braking). If
the system detects that the driver is
pressing the brake pedal, but this is not
deemed sufficient, the system may
intervene in order to improve the
reaction of the braking system,therefore reducing car speed further
(additional assistance during braking).
Versions equipped with Start&Stop
system: at the end of the automatic
braking, the Start&Stop system will
activate as described in paragraph
"Start&Stop system" of the "Starting
and driving" chapter.
Versions with manual transmission:
at the end of the automatic braking the
engine may stall and turn off, unless the
driver presses the clutch pedal.
For versions with automatic
transmission: the last gear stored
remains engaged after braking. The
vehicle could start up again after a few
seconds of automatic stop.
IMPORTANT After the car is stopped,
the brake callipers may be locked for
about 2 seconds for safety reasons.
Make sure you press the brake pedal if
the vehicle moves slightly forwards.
Engagement/disengagement
The Full Brake Control can be
deactivated (and subsequently
reactivated) through the instrument
panel Menu.
NOTE With theUconnect™5"
system, some Menu items are shown
and managed on the display of the
latter and not on the instrument panel
display (refer to the dedicatedMultimedia chapter or to the
supplement available online).
The system can be turned off even with
the ignition device at MAR.
IMPORTANT The system status can be
changed with vehicle at a standstill only.
The Full Brake Control can be set by
selecting one of the 3 Menu options:
System active: the system (if active),
in addition to the visual and acoustic
warnings, can provide automatic
braking and additional assistance
during braking, if the driver does not
brake hard enough in the event of a
potential accident with the vehicle in
front;
System partially active: the system (if
active), does not give the visual and
acoustic warnings, but can provide
automatic braking and additional
assistance during braking, if the driver
does not brake hard enough in the
event of a potential impact with the
vehicle in front;
System deactivated: the system
does not give visual and acoustic
warnings, limited braking, automatic
braking or additional assistance during
braking. The system will therefore
provide no warning of a possible
accident.
