BATTERY
The car is fitted with a low-maintenance
battery: no electrolyte top-ups with
distilled water are needed in standard
conditions of use.
INSPECTING THE
CHARGE AND THE
ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
The operations must be carried out as
described in this Owner Handbook only
by specialised personnel. Topping
must be carried out by specialised
personnel at a Fiat Dealership.
180) 181)
REPLACING THE
BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a
genuine spare part with the same
specifications.
If a battery with different specifications
is fitted, the service intervals given in
the "Service Schedule" will no longer be
valid.
Follow the battery manufacturer's
instructions for maintenance.

CAR INACTIVITY (CARS
EQUIPPED WITH
START&STOP SYSTEM)
In the event of vehicle inactivity (or if the
battery is replaced), special attention
must be paid to the disconnection
of the battery power supply.
Proceed as follows: detach the
connector A fig. 132 (by pressing
button B) from sensor C for monitoring
the status of the battery installed on
the negative battery pole D. This sensor
should never be disconnected from
the battery pole except if the battery is
replaced.
IMPORTANT After turning the ignition
key to STOP and having closed the
driver's side door, wait at least one
minute before disconnecting the battery
and then reconnecting the electrical
supply to the battery.
WARNING
180)Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with skin and
eyes. Keep naked flames and sources of
sparks away from the battery: risk of
explosion and fire.
181)Running the battery with an
excessively low liquid level will damage the
battery beyond repair and could even
cause its explosion
182)If the vehicle must remain unused for
a long time at a very low temperature,
remove the battery and take it to a warm
place, to avoid freezing.
183)When performing any operation on
the battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with special goggles.
184)Do not attempt to charge a frozen
battery: it must be thawed first, otherwise it
may explode. If freezing has occurred, the
battery should be checked by skilled
personnel to make sure that the internal
elements are not damaged and that the
body is not cracked, with the risk of leaking
poisonous and corrosive acid.

For safety reasons, the App cannot be
accessed when the phone is paired
with the radio.
Personal details (e-mail and password)
are required to access theUconnect™
LIVEradio services, therefore your
personal account is protected and can
only be accessed by the real user.
Connected services that can be
accessed on the vehicle
TheUconnect™ LIVEservices
available in the radio menu may change
depending on the market.
Theeco:Drive™and my:Car
applications were developed to improve
the customer's driving experience,
therefore they are available in all
markets where theUconnect™ LIVE
services can be accessed.
For further information visit the
www.driveuconnect.eu website.
If the navigation system is installed in
the radio, accessing theUconnect™
LIVEservices enables use of the
TomTom LIVE services. Further
information about the LIVE functions is
available in the dedicated chapter.eco:Drive™
Theeco:Drive™application allows you
to display your driving behaviour in
real time, in order to help you reach a
more efficient driving style as far as
consumption and emissions are
concerned.
In addition, the data can be saved on a
USB flash drive, and the data analysis
can be made on your personal
computer thanks to theeco:Drive™
desktop application, available on
www.fiat.it or www.driveuconnect.eu.
Driving style is evaluated by means
of four indices which monitor the
following parameters:
Acceleration
Deceleration
Transmission
Speed
eco:Drive™ display
Press theeco:Drive™button to
interact with the function.
A screen will be displayed on the radio,
showing the 4 indices described above.
These indices are grey until the system
has enough data to evaluate the driving
style.Once sufficient data are available, the
indices will have 5 colours depending
on the evaluation: dark green (very
good), light green, yellow, orange and
red (very bad).
"Current trip index" refers to the entire
value calculated in real time based
on the average of the described
indices.
It represents eco-friendliness of the
driving style: from 0 (low) to 100 (high).
In the event of extended inactivity the
display will show the average of the
indices up to that moment (“Average
index”) then the indices will be coloured
again in real time as soon as the car is
restarted.
To check the data average for the
previous trip (the “trip” starts when the
ignition key is turned to the MAR
position and stops when it is turned to
STOP), select the “Previous Route”
button.
The details of the previous trip can also
be displayed by pressing the "Details"
button to show trip duration (time
and mileage) and average speed.

Recording and transferring trip data
The trip data can be stored in the
system memory and transferred using a
suitably configured USB memory stick
or byUconnect™ LIVEApp. This
allows you to display the history of the
collected data, showing the complete
analysis of the trip data and of your
driving style.
Further information is available at
www.driveuconnect.eu.
WARNING Do not remove the USB
memory stick nor unpair the
smartphone and theUconnect™ LIVE
App before the system has
downloaded the data, otherwise it
could be lost.
During the transfer of data to the
devices, messages may appear on the
radio display to guide the user correctly
through the operation; follow these
instructions. These messages are only
displayed with the ignition key at STOP
and when a delay in the system
switching off is set. The data are
automatically transferred to the devices
when the engine is switched off.
Transferred data will be deleted from
the system memory in this manner. You
can choose to store the trip data or
not, by pressing the "Settings" button
and by setting the storage activation
and the USB or Cloud transfer mode.NOTES When the USB memory stick is
full, the warning messages are shown
on the radio display.
When theeco:Drive™data are not
transferred to USB memory stick for a
long time, the internal memory of the
Uconnect™ LIVEsystem may be
exhausted. Follow the instructions given
by the messages on the radio display.
