the MAX DEF function is activated
(refer to the "Air conditioning"
paragraph in the "Knowing your vehicle”
chapter);
the engine coolant liquid temperature
is not sufficient;
the anti-particulate filter automatic
regeneration is underway;
the “Accelerated idling” function is
activated (see the “Accelerated idling”
paragraph in the “Starting and driving”
driver);
The instrument panel warning light
turns on to indicate that the engine
cannot be put in standby.
NOTES:To refuel, the engine must be
turned off (and not in stand-by): you
must stop the engine (refer to the
"Starting the engine” paragraph in the
“Starting and driving” chapter):
RESTARTING
CONDITIONS
In some cases, the engine can restart
without any intervention to guarantee
safety and ideal comfort. This can be
confirmed when:
the outside temperature is too low or
too high (lower than 0°C or over 35°C);
the MAX DEF function is activated
(refer to the "Air conditioning"
paragraph in the "Knowing your vehicle”
chapter);
the battery not sufficiently charged;
the vehicle speed is higher than
5 km/h (going downhill, etc.);
repeated pressure on the brake
pedal or need to use the braking
system;
the restarting procedure could be
interrupted if the clutch pedal is
released too quickly when a gear is
engaged.
Cars with remote control
Some of these conditions prevent
automatic engine restart when opening:
one of the doors (for cars with a key);
the passenger door (for vehicles with
an electronic key).
IRREGULAR OPERATION
When the appropriate message
appears on the instrument panel, along
with the integrated light 2 in button 1
fig. 65, the system is deactivated.
Contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
29)In the event of an emergency stop,
pressing the clutch pedal will restart the
engine if the Start&Stop function is active.
30)Before leaving the vehicle, switch off
the engine and do not leave it in standby
(refer to the “Starting the engine”
paragraph in the “Starting and driving”
chapter).
IMPORTANT
2)Do not drive when the engine is in
standby (the warning lighton the
instrument panel turns on).
3)If you leave the vehicle, there is an
acoustic warning that the engine is in
stand-by mode (it is not off). Before getting
out of the vehicle, you must disengage the
starter device (refer to the "Starter switch”
paragraph in the “Knowing your vehicle”
chapter).

Maintenance
Please see the Scheduled Service Plan.
IMPORTANT Air conditioning function
means greater fuel consumption (turn
off the system when you no longer
need it).
IMPORTANT Use the climate control
system regularly, even if in cold weather,
running it for about 5 minutes at least
once a month.
Cars with additional heater
Some vehicles are equipped with an
additional heater that heats the
passenger compartment more quickly.
This device functions only with the
engine on and at low temperatures.
When functioning, a bit of smoke
issuing from the right side of the
vehicle, coming from the heat exhaust
system, is normal.
Irregular operation
Generally speaking, if you notice any
operational irregularity, please see a Fiat
Dealer.
Limited effectiveness of defrosting,
de-misting or air conditioning can be
due to a clogged cabin filter cartridge.
Cold air is not generated. Check the
position of the controls and condition of
the fuses. Otherwise, turn the system
off.Water beneath the vehicle
After prolonged use of air conditioning,
it is normal to find water under it due to
condensation.

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE

Manufacture
The vehicle's manufacture has been
carried out at an industrial factory that
applies advanced procedures aimed at
environmental impact reduction with
respect to the inhabitants and nature in
the surrounding areas (reduction of
water and power consumption,
atmospheric and water emissions,
disposal and evaluation of waste).
Emissions
While it is being used, the vehicle was
designed to emit a lower quantity of
greenhouse gasses (CO
2) and
therefore lower consumption (ex.:
170 g/km amounts to 6.4 l/100 km for
a Diesel vehicle).
Moreover, the cars are equipped with
anti-pollution systems such as the
catalytic exhaust, oxygen sensor, etc.
For some vehicles, this system is
rounded out with an anti-particulate
filter that allows a reduction in particle
emissions.
Respecting the environment
Used and replaced parts on sale during
regular servicing (battery, oil filter, air
filter, batteries, etc.) and oil tanks (both
empty and full of used oil) must be
delivered to specialised waste disposal
consortiums.To hand the vehicle over at the end of
its life without extra cost, contact one of
our dealerships if you are purchasing
another vehicle or an FCA-authorised
collection and scrapping centre. These
centres have been carefully chosen to
offer high quality service for the
collection, treatment and recycling of
vehicles at their end of life, respecting
the surrounding environment.
Recyclability
The vehicle is 85% recyclable and 95%
recoverable.
To achieve these aims, several of the
vehicle's parts have been designed so
they can be recycled. The structure and
materials have been especially studied
to facilitate dismantling of these
components and their re-treatment in
specific chains.
In order to preserve raw material
resources, the vehicle incorporates
several parts in recycled plastic or
renewable materials (plant or animal like
cotton or wool).
DIESEL VERSION
PARTICULARITIES
88)
18)
Engine speed
Diesel engines are equipped with an
injection system that does not let the
engine exceed a certain number of
revs, no matter what gear is engaged.
If you see the message "Anti-pollution
control" with the warning light
and
the alarm light, contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately.
While driving, depending on the fuel
type used, in exceptional cases the
vehicle might emit white smoke.
This is due to the automatic
regeneration of the anti-particulate filter
and has no consequences on the
vehicle's performance.
Complete lack of fuel
When refuelling after completely using
up all fuel, you need to restore the fuel
circuit: refer to the "Refuelling the
vehicle" paragraph before restarting the
engine.
Engine smoke level label
The information (1) will be shown on the
label A fig. 161 in the engine
compartment.

(3) The actual interval for changing engine oil and replacing the engine oil filter depends on the vehicle usage conditions and is signalled by the warning light or
message on the instrument panel. It must never exceed 2 years or 40,000 km. Change engine oil and filter every year if the vehicle is driven mainly in town.
(4) Areas that are not dusty: recommended maximum mileage 160,000 km. Regardless of the mileage, the belt must be replaced every 6 years. Dusty areas and/or
heavy conditions (cold climates, urban driving, long periods of idling): the recommended maximum distance is 60,000 km. Regardless of the mileage, the belt
must be replaced every 4 years.
(5) When refuelling the vehicle with a quality below the relevant European specification, this filter must be replaced every 20,000 km
(6) Replacing it every 4 years or 120,000 km is recommended

SERVICING
PROCEDURES
The vehicle respects the recycling
criteria and scrapped vehicle
assessment which came into force in
2015.
Therefore, some of the vehicle’s
components are designed with their
ultimate recycling in mind.
These components can easily be
disassembled to be recovered and
reused in the recycling industry.
Moreover, thanks to its advanced
design, its original setup and its modest
fuel consumption, the vehicle complies
with the anti-pollution regulations in
force. We are actively committed to
reducing polluting gases and saving
energy. But the level of polluting gas
emissions and vehicle consumption
also depend on you. Take care to use
and service your car correctly.
Keep in mind that lack of respect for
anti-pollution laws can expose the
vehicle's owner to administrative
sanctions. Moreover, replacing engine,
fuel system and exhaust parts with
other non-original ones voids the
vehicle's compliance with the
anti-pollution regulations.
