Dear Customer,
We would like to congratulate and thank you for choosing a Fiat.
We have written this handbook to help you get to know all the features of your vehicle and use it in the best possible way.
Here you will find information, advice and important warnings regarding use of your vehicle and how to achieve the best
performance from its technical features.
You are advised to read it right through before taking to the road for the first time, to become familiar with the controls and
above all with those concerning brakes, steering and gearbox; at the same time, you can understand the vehicle behaviour on
different road surfaces.
This document also provides a description of special features and tips, as well as essential information for the safe driving, care
and maintenance of your vehicle over time.
After reading it, you are advised to keep the handbook inside the vehicle, for an easy reference and for making sure it remains
on board the vehicle should it be sold.
In the attached Warranty Booklet you will also find a description of the Services that Fiat offers to its customers, the Warranty
Certificate and the detail of the terms and conditions for maintaining its validity.
We are sure that these will help you to get in touch with and appreciate your new vehicle and the service provided by the
people at Fiat.
Enjoy reading. Happy motoring!
This Owner Handbook describes all vehicle versions. Options, equipment dedicated to specific markets or
versions are not explicitly indicated in the text: as a consequence, you should only consider the information which
is related to the trim level, engine and version that you have purchased. Any content introduced throughout the
production of the model, outside the specific request of options at the time of purchase, will be identified with the
wording (where provided).
All data contained in this publication are intended to help you use your vehicle in the best possible way. FCA Italy
S.p.A. aims at a constant improvement of the vehicles produced. For this reason it reserves the right to make
changes to the model described for technical and/or commercial reasons.
For further information, contact a Fiat Dealership.

READ THIS CAREFULLY
REFUELLING
Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95 in compliance with the European specification
EN228.
For further details on the use of the correct fuel see the "Refuelling the vehicle" paragraph in the "Starting and driving" chapter.
Diesel engines: refuel only with Diesel fuel motor vehicles conforming to the European specification EN590. 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 gearbox (petrol engines): make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gear lever to neutral, fully depress the
clutch pedal without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVV and release the key as soon as the engine has started.
Versions with manual gearbox (Diesel engines): make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gear lever to neutral, fully depress the
clutch pedal without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to MAR and wait for the
warning light to switch off. 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 the car on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flammable
material: fire hazard.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is fitted with a system that carries out a 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), contact a Fiat Dealership.
They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the vehicle's electric system can support the required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance of the car is essential for ensuring that it maintains its performance and its safety features, its environmental friendliness
and low running costs for a long time to come.
THE OWNER HANDBOOK CONTAINS
…important information, advice and warnings for correct use, driving safety and maintenance of the car over time. Special attention must be
paid to the symbols
(personal safety) (environmental protection) (car integrity).

USE OF THE OWNER HANDBOOK
Each time direction instructions (left/right or forwards/backwards) about the vehicle are given, these must be understood 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 vehicles
with steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore possible that on vehicles 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 of WARNINGS to prevent procedures that could damage your
vehicle.
There are also PRECAUTIONS that must be carefully followed to prevent incorrect use of the components of the vehicle,
which could cause accidents or injuries.
Therefore all WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS must always be carefully followed.
WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS are recalled in the text with the following symbols:
personal safety;
vehicle safety;
environmental protection.
NOTE These symbols, when necessary, are indicated besides the title or at the end of the line and are followed by a number.
That number recalls the corresponding warning at the end of the relevant section.
VEHICLE CHANGES / ALTERATIONS
IMPORTANT Any change or alteration of the vehicle might seriously affect its safety and road holding, thus causing accidents,
in which the occupants could even be fatally injured.

STEERING LOCK
Activation
When the key is in the STOP position,
remove the key and turn the steering
wheel until it locks.
IMPORTANT If the ignition key has been
moved from the MAR to the STOP
position, the steering lock cannot
engage until the key is removed from
the ignition device.
Deactivation
Move the steering wheel slightly and
turn the key to MAR.
4) 5) 6)
WARNING
2) If the ignition device has been tampered
with (e.g. an attempted theft), have it
checked by a Fiat Dealership before driving
again.
3) Always take the key with you when you
leave your vehicle to prevent someone
from accidentally operating the controls.
Remember to engage the parking brake.
Never leave children unattended in the
vehicle.
4) 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.
5) Never extract the mechanical key while
the vehicle is moving. The steering wheel
will automatically lock as soon as it is
turned. This holds true for cars being
towed as well.
6) Before exiting the vehicle, ALWAYS

wheels, engage the first gear if uphill and
the reverse if downhill. If the vehicle is
parked on a steep slope, chock the wheels
with wedges or stones. When leaving the
vehicle, always lock all the doors by
pressing the button on the key.
FIAT CODE
The Fiat Code system prevents
unauthorised use of the vehicle,
disabling engine starting.
Operation
Each time the vehicle is started by
turning the ignition key to MAR, the Fiat
Code system control unit sends a
recognition code to the Powertrain
Control Module to deactivate the
immobiliser.
The code is sent only if the Fiat Code
system control unit has acknowledged
the code received from the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to
STOP, the Fiat Code system
deactivates the functions of the
Powertrain Control Module.
Irregular operation
If, during starting, the key code is not
correctly recognised, the
symbol is
displayed on the instrument panel (see
the instructions in the "Warning lights
and messages" paragraph, "Knowing
the instrument panel" chapter). This
condition leads to the engine switching
off after 2 seconds. In this case, bring
the ignition device to STOP and then to
MAR; if it is still blocked, try with the
other keys provided. If it is still not
13

possible to start the engine, contact a
Fiat Dealership.
Activation of warning light while
driving
If the symbol is displayed while
driving, this means that the system is
running a self-diagnosis (e.g. due to a
voltage drop).
If the display persists, contact a Fiat
Dealership.

Repositioning the backrests
12)
Raise the backrests and push them
back until the locking click of both
retainers is heard. Visually check that
the red marks have disappeared from
the release devices 1 fig. 14. The
presence of the red notches indicates
that the backrest is not secured.
Seat repositioning
(TIPO STATION WAGON version)
After repositioning the backrests,
remove the seat belt fastening devices
from the elastic retainers and make sure
that they are free to turn. Check that
there are no objects on the cushion
surface, turn the backrests backwards,
insert them under the backrest and
press downwards until they click.
Visually check that the correct position
they had before they were tipped is
restored.
IMPORTANT Always free the seat belt

car.
12) Make sure the backrests are properly
secured at both sides (not visible "red
notches) to prevent them from moving
forward, in the event of sharp braking, with
possible impact with of the passengers.
13) People who can't feel skin pain due to
advanced age, chronic diseases, diabetes,
spine damage, medication, alcohol,
exhaustion, or other physical conditions,
must be careful when using the seat
heater. It could cause burns even at a low
temperature, especially when used for long
periods of time.

14) Do not place objects on the seat or on
the backrest that may isolate the heat,
such as a cover or a pillow. It may cause
the seat heating device to overheat. Sitting
on an overheated seat may cause severe
burns due to the increase in temperature of
the seat surface.
IMPORTANT
4) The fabric upholstery of the seats has
been designed to withstand long-term wear
deriving from normal use of the car. Some
precautions are however required. Avoid

side window vents to
demist/defrost them.
Air flow at central and side
dashboard vents to ventilate the
chest and the face during the hot
season.
Air flow to the front and rear
footwell vents. This air distribution
setting heats the passenger
compartment most quickly, giving a
prompt sensation of warmth.
+
Air flow distributed between
footwell vents (hotter air) and
central and side dashboard
vents (cooler air). This air
distribution setting is useful in
spring and autumn on sunny
days.
+
Air flow distributed between
footwell vents and windscreen
and front side vents. This
distribution setting allows the
passenger compartment to be
warmed up efficiently and
prevents the windows from
misting up.
In AUTO mode, the climate control

(engine off and vehicle at a standstill),
the automatic recirculation
management is turned off always taking
air in from outside, to reduce the
probability of the windows misting up
(as the compressor is off).
IMPORTANT
2) The system uses a coolant that is
compatible with the laws in force in
countries where the vehicle is sold, R134a
or R1234yf. In case of a recharge
operation, only use the gas indicated on
the label placed in the engine
compartment. The use of other coolants
affects the efficiency and condition of the
system. The lubricant used for the
compressor is also strictly linked to the type
of cooling gas, please refer to a Fiat

INTRODUCTION
The LPG version features two fuel
supply systems: one for petrol and one
for LPG.
WHAT IS LPG?
LPG (the abbreviation of “Liquefied
Petroleum Gas”) is a mixture of gas
used as an economical and safe
primary energy source.
Its main components are propane and
butane mixed in various proportions.
These gases are a product of oil refining
and are also naturally present in oil
fields and methane-producing deposits.
In its natural state this mixture takes the
form of a gas, but as the pressure
increases, at room temperature, it can
easily be turned into liquid.
LPG is a fuel with a low environmental
impact because it reduces the pollution
produced by vehicle exhaust gases.

LPG MULTIPOINT
INJECTION SYSTEM
This product is produced by working
closely with qualified suppliers in the
LPG sector.
The injection system used on the car is
an efficient system in terms of engine
performance and is based on the
injection of LPG in a gaseous state.
In this system with four injectors, one
for each intake manifold, the fuel is
injected directly into the engine heat
transfer ducts, thereby metering the
LPG very precisely improving
combustion and, at the same time,
excluding any possibility of flame return.
By adapting the electronic control
technology of petrol engines to meet
LPG specifications, significant results in
terms of driveability and controlling
exhaust emissions have been obtained.
When running on LPG the engine has
almost the same torque and power
features as when running on petrol:
consequently, the car performance can
be compared.
SELECTION OF THE FUEL
SUPPLY TYPE
The car is configured for running
independently on either petrol or LPG.
The engine always starts up on petrol,
with automatic switching to LPG when
the best conditions are achieved
(engine water temperature, minimum
engine rpm limit) for switching to LPG.
In addition, it is advisable to periodically
use up the petrol in the tank (until the
reserve warning light comes on) in order
to ensure that the petrol does not
become old and possibly deteriorate.
The petrol/LPG switch fig. 69 allows
drivers to select petrol or LPG
operation.
IMPORTANT There must therefore
always be some petrol in the tank to
protect the petrol pump and to
guarantee temporary switching from
LPG to petrol operation, if high
performance is required.
PASSIVE SAFETY/ACTIVE
SAFETY
Passive safety
The car has the same passive safety
specifications as other versions. In
particular, the mountings of the tank
(located in the space-saver wheel
housing) have been designed to comply
with the Fiat safety standards for impact
tests.
When running on LPG, the flow of gas
(in a liquid state) leaving the tank
passes through the specific piping to
the pressure regulator unit, where there
is a safety solenoid valve that stops the
flow of LPG when the ignition key is
removed or when the driver selects a
fuel change (decision to run on petrol).
Together with the regulator solenoid
valve, a second solenoid valve, in the
tank, closes the LPG piping at the tank
outlet.
The two solenoid valves are connected
to the fuel cut-off system (Fire
Protection System).
The LPG tank complies with the current
legal regulations of the countries where
the car is sold.
Active safety
The car has the same active safety
specifications as other versions.
Although the LPG system has
69
PGL00001
42
KNOWING YOUR CAR

numerous safety features, it is advisable
to proceed as follows every time the
vehicle is not in use for a long period or
moved in an emergency as a result of a
breakdown or accident:
unscrew the fixing devices 1 fig. 70,
then remove the cover 2;
close the LPG cock rotating the ring
3 fig. 71 clockwise;
refit the cover and retighten the
fastening devices.
IMPORTANT If gas is smelt, switch from
LPG operation to petrol operation and
immediately go to the Fiat Dealership to
have the vehicle checked and possible
system faults excluded.

KNOWING YOUR CAR

LPG TANK
The car has a pressurised tank for
storing LPG in a liquid state. It is
toroidal and is located in the spare
wheel compartment with suitable
protection.
LPG tank certification
The LPG tank is certified in accordance
with the regulations in force.
In Italy, the tank has a life of 10 years
starting from the car registration date. If
the vehicle has been registered in a
country other than Italy, the duration
and the testing/inspection procedures
of the LPG tank can vary depending on
the national provisions in force in that
country. In all case, when the time limit
for your country has expired, go to a
Fiat Dealer to have the tank replaced.
SOLENOID VALVES AND
SAFETY DEVICES
The system has a solenoid valve
located on the pressure reduction unit
and a solenoid valve fitted inside the
multivalve stack on the tank.
The main function of these solenoid
valves is to interrupt/allow the flow of
LPG to the supply circuit.
The solenoid valves are open when:
a request to run on LPG has been
made;
the optimum engine running
conditions are satisfied (engine coolant
temperature, minimum revs level) for
running on LPG;
there is enough LPG in the tank for
operation.
The multivalve stack fitted on the tank
includes:
a valve that automatically stops the
supply of LPG when the maximum
permitted filling level is reached (80% of
the total tank capacity);
a flow limiter which, if a piping is
broken, prevents the complete and
sudden escape of LPG;
a check valve preventing LPG
back-flow to the filler;
a safety solenoid valve on the LPG
supply line for enabling or preventing
the flow of gas towards the pressure
reducer;
a manual valve, positioned upstream
of the solenoid valve for bypassing the
LPG system for servicing operations;
a melting pad which, in the case of
overheating (temperature above
120°C), totally eliminates the danger of
excess pressure, releasing the LPG in
the tank to the outside as quickly as
possible in a controlled manner;
an analogue level gauge for LPG in
the tank.
PIPES
The piping for the LPG in a liquid state
(from the filler to the tank and from the
tank to the pressure regulator) is made
from copper coated in plastic.
The supply piping for the LPG in a
gaseous state (from the pressure
regulator to the LPG injectors) are made
from rubber.
REGULATION UNIT
The regulation unit (see the figure)
includes:
cut-out solenoid valve with gauze
filter;
pressure regulator.
The cut-out solenoid valve opens or
closes together with the solenoid valve
on the tank. It closes all LPG flow when
the engine is not running on gas. It also
acts as a safety device that prevents
73
PLG00006
45

the LPG flow if the fuel locking inertia
switch is activated.
the pressure regulator allows the
LPG to pass from a liquid state to a
gaseous state through an expansion
chamber and maintains the pressure
required for the operation of the system
at a preset value.
LPG FILTER
The filter, located on the pressure
regulator outlet pipe fig. 74 filters the
gaseous LPG during the LPG injector
supply stage.
LPG INJECTORS
There are four injectors specifically for
LPG on a dedicated bracket on the
cylinder head and connected, via
specific pipes, to the individual intake
ducts fig. 75.
They are supplied with LPG in a
gaseous state at a constant pressure
and are controlled by a specific
electronic control unit.
A gas pressure and temperature sensor
that sends an appropriate electrical
signal in order to determine the LPG
injection time is fitted on the injectors.
ELECTRONIC CONTROL
UNIT
The car has a special electronic control
unit fig. 76, in the engine compartment,
controlling the LPG supply, using the
sensors located on the car.
The control unit for the injectors has the
same strategy as the petrol control unit
(timed sequential Multipoint).
LPG/PETROL SWITCH
This engine normally runs on LPG
except during starting when it runs on
petrol. Switching to LPG is automatic,
the warning light
1 fig. 77 on the
instrument panel, switches off.
If you specifically want to use petrol,
press the button on the dashboard
fig. 78. If the LED located above the
button turns on, it indicates that
74
PGL00007
75
PLG00008
76
PLG00009
77
PGL00022
46
KNOWING YOUR CAR

switching has taken place correctly.
Regardless of the last fuel system used,
at the following engine starting, after the
initial petrol stage, the system will
automatically switch to LPG.
The bars 2 fig. 79 on the display
indicate the level of LPG in the tank.
To guarantee switching in full safety, the
actual change to the chosen fuel
system takes place depending on the
car usage conditions; it may not
therefore be immediate. Switching is
confirmed by the switching on/off of the
green warning light
on the
instrument panel.
When switching is requested, metallic
noise from the valves which pressurise
the circuit can be heard. For the
switching logic described above, a
delay between the valve ticking and the
switching off of the instrument panel
indication is completely normal.
Moreover, when starting with outside
temperatures below about -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. 78 button on the dashboard with
the car stationary and engine running,
or while driving.
16) 17)
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. 80 remains on;
the yellow warning light 2onthe
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. 77 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
18) 19)
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
32) 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.
33) 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
12) 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.
13) The system operates at temperatures
ranging between −20°C and 100°C.
14) When painting in an oven, the LPG tank
must be removed from the car and later
refitted by a Fiat Dealership. Although the
LPG system has numerous safety features,
it is advisable to proceed as follows every
time the vehicle is not in use for a long
period or moved in an emergency as a
result of a breakdown or accident: unscrew
the devices fastening the cover of the LPG
tank, then remove it. Close the LPG cock
rotating the ring nut clockwise (see
"Passive safety / active safety"). Refit the
cover and retighten the fastening devices.
15) When switching is requested, metallic
noise from the valves which pressurise the
circuit can be heard. For the switching logic
described above, a delay between the
valve ticking and the switching off of the
instrument panel indication is completely
normal.
16) Do not switch between the two
operating modes whilst starting the engine.
17) In particular usage conditions, such as
starting and operation at low ambient
temperature or LPG supply with low
propane content, the system may switch
temporarily to petrol operation, without a
visual indication of switching on the
instrument panel. In the event of low LPG
levels in the tank or request for high
performance (e.g. overtaking, car fully
laden, steep hills) the system may
automatically switch to petrol operation to
guarantee the engine power requested; the
green warning light
on the instrument
panel switches on to indicate this. When
the above conditions are no longer present,
the system automatically restores LPG
operation; the green warning light
switches off. To achieve the automatic
switching described above, make sure that
there is always enough fuel in the petrol
tank.
18) It is strictly forbidden to use any
additive in the LPG. Periodically (at least
once every six months) it is advisable to let
the LPG in the tank run out and, at the first
refuelling, to check that it does not exceed
the maximum capacity of 42 litres (reserve
included) (with a tolerance of 1 litres
excess). If the level is above 42 litres
(reserve included) contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately.
19) Only use LPG for motor vehicles.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

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 symbols described below are indicative and can change based on the version or market.
59

Warning light What it means
INSUFFICIENT 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.
POWER 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 war ning 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.
EBD FAILURE
The simultaneous switching on of the
(red) and (amber) warning lights with the engine on
indicates either a failure 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.
Drive very carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have the system inspected immediately.
SEAT BELTS NOT FASTENED
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.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

Warning light What it means
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
The warning light on the display lights up when the engine has 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 on the
display switches on 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 tur n 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.
AIRBAG FAILURE
If the warning light switches on constantly, this indicates a failure in the airbag system.
34) 35)
WARNING
34) If, when the ignition device is turned to MAR, the warning 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.
35) The failure of the
warning light is signalled by the lighting up of the symbol 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
61

Warning light What it means
iTPMS
iTPMS failure/iTPMS temporarily deactivated
The warning light flashes for about 75 seconds and then stays on constantly (together with a message on
the display) to indicate that the system is temporarily deactivated or faulty. The system will go back to
normal operation when the operating conditions will allow it. If this is not the case, carry out the “Reset”
procedure after restoring the normal operating conditions.
If the malfunction warning persists, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
Tyre pressure low
The warning light switches on constantly to indicate that the pressure of one or more tyres is lower than
the recommended value and/or that slow pressure loss is occurring. In these cases, optimal tyre duration
and fuel consumption may not be guaranteed. It is advisable to restore the correct pressure value (see the
"Wheels" paragraph in the "Technical specifications" section). Once the normal operating conditions of
the vehicle are restored, carry out the "Reset" procedure.
WARNING Do not continue driving with one or more flat tyres as the car handling may be compromised.
Stop the vehicle, avoiding sharp braking and steering.
ABS FAILURE
The warning light switches on to indicate an ABS fault. In this case the braking system maintains its
efficiency unaltered but without the advantage of the ABS system. Drive carefully and contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.

IMPORTANT
22) If the symbol switches on when driving, stop the engine immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
23) Deteriorated engine oil should be replaced as soon as possible after the
symbol switches on, and never more than 500 km after it
first switches on. Failure to observe the above may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the warranty. Remember that when
this symbol comes on, it does not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if it flashes you do not need to top up the engine oil.
24) If the symbol flashes when driving, contact a Fiat Dealership.
25) The presence of water in the fuel system circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular engine operation. If the
symbol is displayed contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to bleed the system. If the above indications come on immediately after
refuelling, water has probably been poured into the tank: switch the engine off immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
26) Vehicle travel speed should always be adapted to the traffic and weather conditions, and must always comply with traffic regulations. The
engine can be stopped even if the DPF symbol is on: however, repeated interruptions of the regeneration process could cause premature
deterioration of the engine oil. For this reason it is always advisable to wait for the symbol to go off before turning off the engine, following the
instructions above. Do not complete the DPF regeneration process when the vehicle is stopped.

SAFETY

ACTIVE SAFETY
SYSTEMS
The vehicle has the following active
safety systems:
ABS (Anti-lock Braking System);
DTC (Drag Torque Control);
ESC (Electronic Stability Control);
TC (Traction Control);
PBA (Panic Brake Assist);
HHC (Hill Hold Control);
ERM (Electronic Rollover Mitigation);
TSC (Trailer Sway Control).
For the operation of the systems, see
the following description.
ABS (Anti-lock Braking
System)
This system, which is an integral part of
the braking system, prevents one or
more wheels from locking and slipping
in all road surface conditions,
irrespective of the intensity of the
braking action, ensuring that the vehicle
can be controlled even during
emergency braking and optimising
stopping distances.
The system intervenes during braking
when the wheels are about to lock,
typically in emergency braking or
low-grip conditions, when locking may
be more frequent.
The system also improves control and
stability of the vehicle when braking on
a surface where the grip of the left and
right wheels varies, or on corners.
The Electronic Braking Force
Distribution (EBD) system completes
the system allowing the brake force to
be distributed between the front and
rear wheels.
System intervention
The driver can feel that the ABS system
has come into action because the
brake pedal pulsates slightly and the
system gets noisier: this is entirely
normal with the system operating.
36) 37) 38) 39) 39) 41) 42)
DTC (Drag Torque
Control) SYSTEM
The system prevents the drive wheels
from possibly locking, which could
happen, for example, if the accelerator
pedal is released suddenly or in the
case of a sudden downshifting in
conditions of poor grip. In this
conditions, the engine braking effect
could cause the drive wheels to slip,
resulting in a loss of vehicle stability. In
these situations, the DTC system
intervenes, restoring torque to the
engine in order to conserve vehicle
stability and increase vehicle safety.
ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) SYSTEM
The ESC system improves the
directional control and stability of the
car in various driving conditions.
The ESC system corrects the vehicle’s
understeer and oversteer, distributing
the brake force on the wheels
appropriately. The torque supplied by
the engine can also be reduced in order
to maintain control of the vehicle.
The ESC system uses sensors installed
on the vehicle to determine the
trajectory that the driver intends to
follow and compares it with the
vehicle’s effective trajectory. When the
real trajectory deviates from the desired
trajectory, the ESC system intervenes to
counter the vehicle’s understeer or
oversteer.
Oversteer: occurs when the car is
turning more than it should according
to the angle of the steering wheel.
Understeer: occurs when the vehicle
is turning less than it should according
to the angle of the steering wheel.
System intervention
The intervention of the system is
indicated by the flashing of the
warning light on the instrument
panel, to inform the driver that the
vehicle is in critical stability and grip
conditions.
73

43) 44) 45) 46) 47)
TC (Traction Control)
SYSTEM
The system automatically operates in
the event of slipping, loss of grip on wet
roads (aquaplaning) and acceleration on
slippery, snowy or icy roads, etc. on
one or more drive wheels. Depending
on the slipping conditions, two different
control systems are activated:
if the slipping involves both drive
wheels, the system intervenes, reducing
the power transmitted by the engine;
if the slipping only involves one of the
drive wheels, the BLD (Brake Limited
Differential) function is activated,
automatically braking the wheel which
is slipping (the behaviour of a
self-locking differential is simulated).
This will increase the engine torque
transferred to the wheel which isn't
slipping. This function remains active
even if the "Systems partially disabled"
and "Systems disabled" modes are
selected (see description in the
following pages).
System intervention
The intervention of the system is
indicated by the flashing of the
warning light on the instrument
panel, to inform the driver that the
vehicle is in critical stability and grip
conditions.
48) 49) 50) 51) 52)
PBA (Panic Brake
Assist) SYSTEM
The PBA system is designed to improve
the vehicle’s braking capacity during
emergency braking.
The system detects emergency braking
by monitoring the speed and force with
which the brake pedal is pressed, and
consequently applies the optimal brake
pressure. This can reduce the braking
distance: the PBA system therefore
completes the ABS.
Maximum assistance from the PBA
system is obtained by pressing the
brake pedal very quickly. In addition, the
brake pedal should be pressed
continuously during braking, avoiding
intermittent presses, to get the most
out of the system. Do not reduce
pressure on the brake pedal until
braking is no longer necessary.
The PBA system is deactivated when
the brake pedal is released.
54) 54) 55)
HHC (Hill Hold Control)
SYSTEM
This is an integral part of the ESC
system and facilitates starting on
slopes, activating automatically in the
following cases:
uphill: vehicle stationary on a road
with a gradient higher than 5%, engine
running, brake pressed and
transmission in neutral or gear other
than reverse engaged;
downhill: vehicle stationary on a road
with a gradient higher than 5%, engine
running, brake pressed and reverse
gear engaged.
When setting off, the ESC system
control unit maintains the braking
pressure on the wheels until the engine
torque necessary for starting is
reached, or in any case for a maximum
of 2 seconds, allowing your right foot to
be moved easily from the brake pedal
to the accelerator.
When two seconds have elapsed,
without starting, the system is
automatically deactivated, gradually
releasing the braking pressure. During
this release stage it is possible to hear a
typical mechanical brake release noise,
indicating the imminent movement of
the car.
56) 57)
ERM (Electronic Rollover
Mitigation) SYSTEM
The system monitors the tendency of
the wheels to rise from the ground if the
driver performs extreme manoeuvres
like quick steering to avoid an obstacle,
especially in poor road conditions.
74
SAFETY

If these conditions occur, the warning
light
flashes on the instrument panel
and the system, intervening on the
brakes and engine power, limits the
possibility that the wheels are raised
from the ground. It is not possible to
avoid tendency to roll over if the
phenomenon is due to reasons such as
driving on high side gradients, collision
with objects or other vehicles.
58)
TSC (Trailer Sway
Control) SYSTEM
The system employs a series of sensors
located on the vehicle to identify
excessive swerving of the trailer and
take the necessary precautions to
eliminate it.
To counteract the effect of trailer sway,
the system can reduce the engine
power and intervene on the wheels
involved. The TSC system activates
automatically once excessive sway of
the trailer is detected.
System intervention
When the system is active, the
warning light flashes on the
instrument panel, the engine power is
reduced and braking can be felt on the
individual wheels, following the attempt
to eliminate the swerving of the trailer.
59) 60)
WARNING
36) When the ABS intervenes and you feel
the brake pedal pulsating, do not reduce
the pressure, but hold it down firmly and
confidently; in doing so you will brake in the
shortest distance possible, depending on
the current road conditions.
37) To obtain the maximum efficiency of
the braking system, a bedding-in period of
about 500 km is needed: during this period
it is better to avoid sharp, repeated and
prolonged braking.
38) If the ABS intervenes, this indicates
that the grip of the tyres on the road is
nearing its limit: you must slow down to a
speed compatible with the available grip.
39) The ABS cannot overrule the natural
laws of physics, and cannot increase the
grip available according to the condition of
the road.
40) The ABS cannot prevent accidents,
including those due to excessive speed on
corners, driving on low-grip surfaces or
aquaplaning.
41) The capability of the ABS must never
be tested irresponsibly and dangerously, in
such a way as to compromise personal
safety and the safety of others.
42) For the correct operation of the ABS,
the tyres must of necessity be the same
make and type on all wheels, in perfect
condition and, above all, of the prescribed
type and dimensions.
43) The ESC system cannot alter the
natural laws of physics, and cannot
increase grip, which depends on the
condition of the road.
44) The ESC system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to excessive
speed on corners, driving on low-grip
surfaces or aquaplaning.
45) The capability of the ESC system must
never be tested irresponsibly and
dangerously, in such a way as to
compromise personal safety and the safety
of others.
46) For the correct operation of the ESC
system, the tyres must necessarily be of
the same make and type on all wheels, in
perfect condition and, above all, of the
prescribed type and size.
47) ESC performance features must not
induce the driver to take unnecessary or
unwarranted risks. Your driving style must
always be suited to the road conditions,
visibility and traffic. The driver is, in any
case, responsible for safe driving.
48) For the correct operation of the TC
system, the tyres must of necessity be the
same make and type on all wheels, in
perfect condition and, above all, of the
prescribed type and dimensions.
49) TC performance features must not
induce the driver to take unnecessary or
unwarranted risks. Your driving style must
always be suited to the road conditions,
visibility and traffic. The driver is, in any
case, responsible for safe driving.
50) The TC system cannot overrule the
natural laws of physics, and cannot
increase the grip available according to the
condition of the road.
51) The TC system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to excessive
speed on corners, driving on low-grip
surfaces or aquaplaning.
75

52) The capability of the TC must never be
tested irresponsibly and dangerously, in
such a way as to compromise personal
safety and the safety of others.
53) The PBA system cannot overrule the
natural laws of physics, and cannot
increase the grip available according to the
condition of the road.
54) The PBA system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to excessive
speed on corners, driving on low-grip
surfaces or aquaplaning.
55) The capability of the PBA system must
never be tested irresponsibly and
dangerously, in such a way as to
compromise the safety of the driver, the
other occupants of the vehicle or any other
road user.
56) The Hill Hold Control system is not a
parking brake; therefore, never leave the
vehicle without having engaged the parking
brake, turned the engine off and engaged
first gear, so that it is parked in safe
conditions (for further information read the
"Parking" paragraph in the "Starting and
driving" chapter).
57) There may be situations on small
gradients (less than 8%), with vehicle
laden, in which the Hill Hold Control system
may not activate, causing a slight reversing
motion and increasing the risk of collision
with another vehicle or object. The driver is,
in any case, responsible for safe driving.
58) The performance of a vehicle with ERM
must never be tested in imprudent or
dangerous ways, with the possibility of
putting the safety of the driver or other
people at risk.
59) When towing trailers, the utmost
caution at the wheel is recommended.
Never exceed the maximum permitted
loads (see the description in the "Weights"
paragraph in the "Technical Specifications"
chapter).
60) The TSC system cannot prevent
swerving for all trailers. If the system
activates during driving, reduce the speed,
stop the vehicle in a safe place and arrange
the load correctly to prevent the trailer from
swerving.

The Full Brake Control system is a
SUPPLEMENTARY AID to help the
driver avoid hitting the vehicles in front.
It does not replace the driver, who must
maintain the safety distance and adjust
the vehicle’s speed according to the
traffic, visibility and weather conditions,
even when the system is active.
DO NOT wait for a collision warning to
reduce speed. If the driver fails to use
the brake pedal, it could cause a
collision.
The Full Brake Control system does not
detect pedestrians, animals or other
obstacles that cross the direction of
travel, nor vehicles traveling in the
opposite direction.
The Fill Brake Control system consists
of a radar located behind the front
bumper fig. 87.
76
SAFETY

In the event of an imminent collision the
system may intervene by braking the
vehicle 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 signals 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 vehicle 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 gearbox:at
the end of the automatic braking the
engine may stall and turn off, unless the
driver presses the clutch pedal.
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.
With the Uconnect™ 5" or 7" HD
system, some Menu items are shown
and managed on the display of the
latter and not on the instrument panel
display (refer to the dedicated
Multimedia chapter or to the
supplement available online).
The system can be deactivated 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 impact 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 indication of a possible
accident.
Activation/deactivation
If the Full Brake Control system has
been correctly activated from the Menu,
it will be active each time the engine is
started.
Following a deactivation, the system will
87
P2000076-000-000
77

not warn the driver about the possible
collision with the preceding vehicle.
The system deactivation status will not
be stored when the engine is switched
off: if the system is deactivated when
the engine is switched off, it will be
active when it is next started.
This function is not active at a speed
lower than 7 km/h or higher than
200 km/h.
The system is only active if:
it is correctly activated through the
Menu;
the ignition device is at MAR;
the vehicle speed is between 7 and
200 km/h;
the front seat belts are fastened.
Changing the system sensitivity
The sensitivity of the system can be
changed through the Menu, choosing
from one of the following three options:
"Near", "Med" or "Far". See the
description in the Uconnect™ 5" o 7"
HD supplement for how to change the
settings.
The pre-set option is "Near". With this
setting, the system will warn the driver
of a possible collision with the vehicle in
front when it is close. This setting offers
the driver a lower reaction time
compared to the "Med" and "Far"
settings, in the event of a potential
collision, but permits more dynamic
driving of the vehicle.
With the system sensitivity set to "Far",
the system will warn the driver of a
possible collision with the vehicle in
front when that vehicle is at a greater
distance, thus providing the possibility
of acting on the brakes more lightly and
gradually. This setting provides the
drivers with the maximum possible
reaction time to prevent a potential
accident.
Changing the setting to “Med”, the
system warns the driver of a possible
collision with the vehicle in front when it
is at a standard distance, between that
of the other two settings. The system
sensitivity setting is kept in the memory
when the engine is switched off.
System failure signalling
If the system switches off and a
dedicated message is shown on the
display, it means that there is a fault on
the system.
In this case, it is still possible to drive
the vehicle, but you are advised to
contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
Radar indication not available
If conditions are such that the radar
cannot detect obstacles correctly, the
system is deactivated and a dedicated
message appears on the display. This
generally occurs in the event of poor
visibility, such as when it is snowing or
raining heavily.
The system can also be temporarily
dimmed due to obstructions such as
mud, dirt or ice on the bumper. In such
cases, a dedicated message will be
shown on the display and the system
will be deactivated. This message can
sometimes appear in conditions of high
reflectivity (e.g. tunnels with reflective
tiles or ice or snow). When the
conditions limiting the system functions
end, this will go back to normal and
complete operation.
In certain particular cases, this
dedicated message could be displayed
when the radar is not detecting any
vehicles or objects within its view range.
If atmospheric conditions are not the
real reason behind this message, check
if the sensor is dirty. It could be
necessary to clean or remove any
obstructions in the area illustrated in
fig. 87.
If the message appears often, even in
the absence of atmospheric conditions
such as snow, rain, mud or other
obstructions, contact a Fiat Dealership
for a sensor alignment check.
In the absence of visible obstructions,
cleaning the radar surface, by manually
78
SAFETY

removing the decorative cover trim,
could be required. For this operation,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT It is recommended that
you do not install devices, accessories
or aerodynamic attachments in front of
the sensor or darken it in any way, as
this can compromise the correct
functioning of the system. Any
modifications to the vehicle’s geometry
or its front area (including repairs not
done by the Fiat Dealership) can affect
the proper operation of the device.
Frontal collision alarm with active
braking
(where provided)
If this functions is enabled and the
system detects the risk of a collision, it
can activate the brakes to slow the car
down.
This function applies an additional
braking pressure if the braking pressure
applied by the driver does not suffice to
prevent potential frontal impact.
The function is active with speed above
7 km/h.
Driving in special conditions
In certain driving conditions, such as,
for example:
driving close to a bend;
vehicles with small dimensions
and/or not aligned in the driving lane;
lane change by other vehicles;
vehicles travelling at right angles to
the vehicle.
The system’s intervention might be
unexpected or delayed. The driver must
therefore be very careful, keeping
control of the vehicle to drive in
complete safety.
IMPORTANT In particularly complex
traffic conditions, the driver can
deactivate the system through the
Menu.
Driving close to a bend
When tackling a wide bend, the system
may detect the presence of a vehicle in
front you, but not running on the same
driving lane fig. 88. In cases such as
these, the system may intervene.
Vehicles with small dimensions
and/or not aligned in the driving
lane
The system cannot detect vehicles in
front of you but outside the range of the
radar sensor and may therefore not
react in the presence of small vehicles,
such as bicycles or motorcycles fig. 89.
Lane change by other vehicles
Vehicles suddenly changing lane,
entering the driving lane of the vehicle
and inside the radar sensor operating
range, may cause system activation
fig. 90.

9Vehicles travelling at right angles
to the vehicle
The system may temporarily react to a
vehicle that is passing through the radar
sensor’s operating range at right angles
fig. 91.
Important notes
The system has not been designed
to prevent impacts and cannot detect
possible conditions leading to an
accident in advance. Failure to take into
account this warning may lead to
serious or fatal injuries.
The system may activate, assessing
the trajectory of the vehicle, due to the
presence of reflective metal objects
different from other vehicles, such as
safety barriers, road signs, barriers
before parking lots, tollgates, level
crossings, gates, railways, objects near
road constructions sites or higher than
the vehicle (e.g. a flyover). In the same
way, the system may intervene inside
multi-storey car parks or tunnels, or due
to a glare on the road surface. These
possible activations follow the normal
operating logic of the system and must
not be regarded as faults.
The system has been designed for
road use only. If the vehicle is driven
off-road, the system must be
deactivated, to avoid unnecessary
warnings.
The system should be deactivated
when the vehicle is loaded on a train,
ferry or lorry, when it is towed or put on
a roller test bench.
iTPMS (indirect Tyre
Pressure Monitoring
System)
65) 66) 67) 68) 69) 70)
Description
The vehicle is equipped with the iTPMS
(indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System) which monitors the tyre
inflation status thanks to wheel speed
sensors.
Correct tyre pressure
If no flat tyres are detected, the outline
of the vehicle will be shown on the
display.
Low tyre pressure
The system warns the driver if one or
more tyres are flat by switching on the
warning light on the instrument
panel and a warning message on the
display, along with an acoustic signal.
In this case, the outline of the vehicle is
shown on the display with the two
symbols
.
This indication is displayed also when
turning the engine off and on again until
the RESET procedure is carried out.
Reset procedure
The iTPMS needs an initial
"self-learning" phase (with length
depending on the driving style and road
conditions: optimal conditions being
driving on a straight road at 80 km/h for
90
P2000041-000-000
91
P2000042-000-000
80
SAFETY

at least 20 minutes) which starts when
the RESET procedure is carried out.
The RESET procedure must be carried
out:
each time tyre pressure is modified;
when even only one tyre is changed;
when tyres are rotated/inverted;
when the space-saver wheel is fitted.
Before carrying out the RESET
procedure, inflate the tyres to the rated
pressure values specified in the inflation
pressure table (see "Wheels" paragraph
in the "Technical specifications"
chapter).
If the RESET is not carried out, in all
above cases, the
warning light may
give false indications on one or more
tyres.
To carry out the RESET, with the vehicle
stationary and the engine on, hold
down the Reset button
located on
the left control panel fig. 92 for at least
2 seconds.
When the RESET procedure has been
carried out, and depending on the type
of instrument panel, either only a buzzer
will be heard or the message "Reset
saved" will appear together with the
buzzer to indicate that self-learning has
started.
Operating conditions
The system is active for speeds above
15 km/h.
In a few situations such as sporty
driving, particular conditions of the road
surface (e.g. icy, snowy, unsurfaced
roads) the signalling may be delayed or
partial in detecting the contemporary
deflation of more than one tyre.
Under special conditions (e.g. vehicle
loaded asymmetrically on one side,
towing a trailer, damaged or worn tyre,
fitting the space-saver wheel, use of the
"Fix&Go Automatic" tyre repair kit, fitting
snow chains, fitting different tyres on
the axles) the system may provide false
indications or be temporarily
deactivated.
If the system is temporarily deactivated
the
warning light flashes for about
75 seconds and then is continuously
on; at the same time, the display shows
a warning message.
This indication is displayed also after
the engine has been switched off and
then on again if the correct operating
conditions are not restored.
In the case of abnormal signals, it is
recommended to perform the RESET
procedure. If the signals reappear once
the RESET procedure has started,
check that the type of tyres used are
the same on all four wheels and that the
tyres are not damaged; if the
space-saver wheel is being used, refit
the wheel with a tire with normal
dimensions instead of the space-saver
wheel as soon as possible; if possible
remove the snow chains; make sure
that the load is distributed correctly and
repeat the RESET procedure, driving on
a clean and surfaced road. If the signals
persist, contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
61) The system is an aid for the driver, who
must always pay full attention while driving.
The responsibility always rests with the
driver, who must take into account the
traffic conditions in order to drive in
complete safety. The driver must always
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in
front.
92
06056J0001EM
81

62) If the driver depresses the brake pedal
fully or carries out a fast steering during
system operation, the automatic braking
function may stop (e.g. to allow a possible
manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle).
63) The system intervenes on vehicles
travelling in the same lane. People, animals
and things (e.g. pushchairs) are not taken
into consideration.
64) If the car must be placed on a roller
bench for maintenance interventions or if it
is washed in an automatic roller washing
tunnel with an obstacle in the front part
(e.g. another car, a wall or another
obstacle), the system may detect its
presence and activate. In this case the
system must be deactivated through the
settings of the Uconnect™ 5" or 7" HD
system.
65) If the iTMPS system signals a pressure
decrease on the tyres, it is recommended
to check the pressure on all four tyres.
66) The iTPMS does not relieve the driver
from the obligation to check the tyre
pressure every month; it is not even to be
considered a replacing system for
maintenance or a safety system.
67) Tyre pressure must be checked with
tyres cold. Should it become necessary for
whatever reason to check pressure with
warm tyres, do not reduce pressure even
though it is higher than the prescribed
value, but repeat the check when tyres are
cold
68) The iTPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre
pressure drops (e.g. if a tyre bursts). In this
case, stop the vehicle, braking with caution
and avoiding abrupt steering.
69) The system only warns that the tyre
pressure is low: it is not able to inflate
them.
70) Insufficient tyre inflation increases fuel
consumption, reduces the tread duration
and may affect the capacity to drive safely.
IMPORTANT
27) The system may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such
as: heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow.
28) The section of the bumper before the
sensor must not be covered with
adhesives, auxiliary headlights or any other
object.
29) System intervention might be
unexpected or delayed when other vehicles
transport loads projecting from the side,
above or from the rear, with respect to the
normal size of the vehicle.
30) Operation can be adversely affected by
any structural change made to the vehicle,
such as a modification to the front
geometry, tyre change, or a heavier load
than the standard load of the vehicle.
31) Incorrect repairs made on the front part
of the vehicle (e.g. bumper, chassis) may
alter the position of the radar sensor, and
adversely affect its operation. Go to a Fiat
Dealership for any operation of this type.
32) Do not tamper nor operate on the radar
sensor. In the event of a sensor failure,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
33) When towing a trailer (with modules
installed after purchasing the vehicle), a
vehicle or during loading manoeuvres on a
vehicle transporter (or in vehicle for
transport), the system must be deactivated
via the Uconnect™ 5" or 7" HD system.
34) Do not wash with high-pressure jets in
the bumper lower area: in particular do not
operate on the system's electrical
connector.
35) Be careful in the case of repairs and
new paintings in the area around the
sensor (panel covering the sensor on the
left side of the bumper). In the event of a
frontal impact the sensor may automatically
deactivate and display a warning to indicate
that the sensor needs to be repaired. Even
without a malfunction warning, deactivate
the system operation if you think that the
position of the radar sensor has changed
(e.g. due to low-speed frontal impact as
during parking manoeuvres). In these
cases, go to a Fiat Dealership to have the
radar sensor realigned or replaced.

SAFETY

OCCUPANT
PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
Some of the most important safety
equipment of the vehicle comprise the
following protection systems:
seat belts;
SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;
head restraints;
child restraint systems;
Front air bags, side air bags and
drop down air bags (where provided).
Read the information given the following
pages with the utmost care. It is of
fundamental importance that the
protection systems are used in the
correct way to guarantee the maximum
possible safety level for the driver and
the passengers.
For the description of the head restraint
adjustment see the "Head restraints"
paragraph in the "Knowing your vehicle"
chapter.
SEAT BELTS
All vehicle seats are equipped with seat
belts with three anchor points and a
retractor.
The retractor mechanism operates
locking the belt in the event of sharp
braking or strong deceleration due to
an impact. This allows the belt strap to
slide freely and to adapt to the body of
the occupant. In the event of an
accident, the belt will lock reducing the
risk of impact inside the passenger
compartment and of being projected
outside the vehicle.
The driver is responsible for respecting,
and ensuring that all the other
occupants of the vehicle also respect,
the local laws in force in relation to the
use of the seat belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off.
USING THE SEAT BELTS
The seat belt should be worn keeping
the chest straight and rested against
the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the tab 1
fig. 93 and insert it into the buckle 2,
until it clicks into place.
On removal of the belt, if it jams, let it
rewind for a short stretch, then pull it
out again without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press button
3fig. 93 and guide the seat belt with
your hand while it is rewinding, to
prevent it from twisting.
71) 72)
The retractor may lock when the vehicle
is parked on a steep slope: this is
perfectly normal. Furthermore, the reel
mechanism locks the belt if it is pulled
sharply or in the event of sudden
braking, collisions and high-speed
bends.
Once seated, put on the rear seat belts
as shown in fig. 94.

ADJUSTING THE FRONT
SEAT BELT HEIGHT
73) 74)
Four different adjustments in height are
possible.
To carry out window height adjustment,
from the top to the bottom, button 1
fig. 95 must be pressed, and the handle
must be slid downwards.
To carry out window height adjustment,
from the top to the bottom, the handle
must be slid (without pressing
anything).
Always adjust the height of the seat
belts to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the event of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.
WARNING
71) Never press button 3 when travelling.
72) Remember that, in the event of an
accident, the rear seat passengers not
wearing seat belts are exposed to a very
serious risk and also represent a serious
danger for the front seat occupants.
73) Make height adjustment of the seat
belts when the car is stationary.
74) After the height adjustment, always
check that the grip is locked in one of the
preset positions. To do this, with button
1 released, exert further pressure
downwards to allow the locking device to
click if the grip has not been released in
one of the possible positions.

SAFETY

SBR (SEAT BELT
REMINDER) SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The SBR system warns the passengers
of the front and rear (where provided)
seats if their seat belt is not fastened.
The system signals unfastened seat
belts with visual warnings (warning
lights on in the instrument panel and
symbols on the display) and an
acoustic signal (see the following
paragraphs).
NOTE To deactivate the acoustic
warning permanently go to a Fiat
Dealership. The acoustic warning can
be reactivated at any time through the
display menu (see the "Display"
paragraph in the "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter).
Operation of front seat belt warning
light
When the ignition device is turned to
MAR, warning light
(see fig. 96 )
comes on for a few seconds,
regardless of the status of the front seat
belts.
With vehicle at a standstill, if the driver
side seat belt or the passenger side
seat belt (with occupant seated) is
unfastened, the warning light stays on
constantly.
As soon as the threshold of 8 km/h
(5 mph) is reached for a few seconds
with driver or passenger side (with
passenger present) seat belts
unfastened, an acoustic warning is
activated together with the flashing of
the
warning light for approximately
100 seconds.
When this cycle of warnings is activated
it will stay on for its entire length
(regardless of the vehicle speed) or until
the seat belts are fastened again.
When the reverse is engaged, during
the cycle of warnings, the acoustic
signal is deactivated and the
warning light turns on constantly.
The cycle of warnings will be
reactivated as soon as speed exceeds
8 km/h again.
Operation of rear seat belt symbols
The symbols are shown on the display
fig. 97 after a few seconds have
elapsed since the ignition device is
turned to MAR.
The symbols are displayed according to
the corresponding seat belts and turn
off at least 30 seconds after the doors
have been closed or after a change in
the seat belt fastening status.
seat belt unfastened
seat belt fastened
The symbols shown on the display
indicate:
A: rear left seat belt;
B: rear central seat belt;
C: rear right seat belt.
96
P2000037-000-000
85

If a rear seat belt is unfastened, an
acoustic warning (3 "beeps") will be
activated along with the relevant symbol
lighting up on the display.
Furthermore the symbols will light up
again for 30 seconds each time one of
the rear doors is closed.
The symbol will change state after the
corresponding seat belt has been
fastened again.
After about 30 seconds from the last
indication, the rear seat symbols will
switch off, irrespective of the seat belt
status.
IMPORTANT NOTES
As far as the rear seats are concerned,
the SBR system will only indicate
whether the seat belts are unfastened
or fastened, not the presence of any
passengers.
The warning lights/symbols are all off if
all seat belts (front and rear) are
fastened when the ignition device is at
MAR.
For the rear seats, the symbols will
activate a few seconds after the ignition
device has been turned to MAR,
regardless of the status of the seat belts
(even if the seat belts are all fastened).
All the warning lights/symbols will come
on when at least one belt changes from
fastened to unfastened status or vice
versa.
PRE-TENSIONERS
The vehicle is equipped with front seat
belt pretensioners, which draw back the
seat belts by several centimetres in the
event of a strong frontal impact. This
guarantees the perfect adherence of
the seat belts to the occupant's bodies
before the retention action begins.
It is evident that the pretensioners have
been activated when the safety belt
withdraws toward the retractor.
This vehicle is also equipped with a
second pretensioner (in the kick plate
area). Its activation is signalled by the
shortening of the metal cable and rolling
up of the protective sheath.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the
pretensioner which is not harmful and
does not involve any fire hazard.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication: any
changes to its original conditions will
invalidate its efficiency.
If, due to unusual natural events (floods,
sea storms, etc.), the device has been
affected by water and/or mud, contact
a Fiat Dealership to have it replaced.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action of
the pretensioner, wear the seat belt
tight to the torso and pelvis.

SAFETY

LOAD LIMITERS
75)
36)
To increase safety in the event of an
accident, the front seat belt retractors
contain a load limiter which controls the
force acting on the chest and shoulders
during the belt restraining action in the
event of a head-on collision.
GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USING THE SEAT BELTS
76) 77) 78)
Seat belts must also be worn by
pregnant women: the risk of injury in the
event of an accident is reduced for
them and the unborn child if they are
wearing a seat belt.
Pregnant women must position the
lower part of the belt very low down so
that it passes over the pelvis and under
the abdomen fig. 98. While pregnancy
progresses, the driver must adjust both
seat and steering wheel to have full
control over the vehicle (pedals and
steering wheel must be easy to
access). The maximum clearance
should be kept between the abdomen
and the steering wheel.
The seat belt must not be twisted. The
upper part must pass over the shoulder
and cross the chest diagonally. The
lower part must adhere to the pelvis
fig. 99, not to the abdomen of the
occupant. Never use devices (clips,
clamps, etc.) that hold the seat belt
away from your body.
Each seat belt must be used by only
one person. Never travel with a child
sitting on the passenger's lap and a
single belt to protect them both
fig. 100. In general, do not place any
objects between the person and the
belt.
SEAT BELTS
MAINTENANCE
For keeping the seat belts in efficient
conditions, carefully observe the
following warnings:
always use the seat belt well
stretched and never twisted; make sure
that it is free to run without
obstructions;
check seat belt operation as follows:
attach the seat belt and pull it hard;
replace the belt after an accident of a
certain severity even if it does not
appear to be damaged. Always replace
the seat belt if the pretensioners were

prevent the retractors from getting
wet: their correct operation is only
guaranteed if water does not get inside;
replace the seat belt when it shows
wear or cuts.
WARNING
75) The pretensioner may be used only
once. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have it
replaced after it has been deployed.
76) Removing or otherwise tampering with
pretensioner and seat belt components is
strictly prohibited. Any intervention on
these components must be performed by
qualified and authorised technicians.
Always go to a Fiat Dealership.
77) For maximum safety, keep the backrest
upright, lean back into it and make sure the
seat belt fits closely across your chest and
pelvis. Always fasten the seat belts for both
the front and rear seats! Travelling without
wearing seat belts will increase the risk of
serious injury and even death in the event
of an accident.
78) If the belt has been subjected to high
levels of stress, for example after an
accident, it should be changed completely
together with the attachments, attachment
fixing screws and the pretensioner. In fact,
even if the belt has no visible defects, it
may have lost its resilience.
IMPORTANT
36) Operations which lead to impacts,
vibrations or localised heating (over 100°C
for a maximum of six hours) in the area
around the pretensioner may cause
damage or make it deploy. Contact a Fiat
Dealership should intervention be
necessary on these components.
CHILD PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
CARRYING CHILDREN
SAFELY
79) 80) 81) 82)
For optimal protection in the event of an
impact, all occupants must be seated
and wearing adequate restraint
systems, including newborn and other
children!
This prescription is compulsory in all EC
countries according to EC Directive
2003/20/EC.
Children below the height of
1.50 metres and up to 12 years must
be protected with suitable restraint
systems and be seated on the rear
seats.
Statistics on accidents indicate that the
rear seats offer greater safety for
children.
Compared with an adult, a child's head
is larger and heavier in proportion to
their body and the child's muscular and
bone structures are not fully developed.
Therefore, correct restraint systems
other than adult seat belts are
necessary, to reduce as much as
possible the risk of injuries in the event
of an accident, braking or sudden
manoeuvre.
Children must be seated safely and
88
SAFETY

comfortably. Depending on the
characteristics of the child restraint
systems used, you are advised to keep
children in rearward facing child
restraint systems for as long as possible
(at least until 3-4 years old), since this is
the most protected position in the event
of an impact.
It is recommended to always choose
the restraint system most suitable for
the child; for this reason always refer to
the Owner Handbook provided with the
child restraint system, to be sure that it
is of the right type for the children it is
intended for.
In Europe the characteristics of child
restraint systems are ruled by the
regulation ECE-R44, dividing them into
five weight groups:
Group Weight groups
Group 0
up to 10 kg in
weight
Group 0+
up to 13 kg in
weight
Group 1 9 - 18 kg
Group 2 15 - 25 kg
Group 3 22 - 36 kg
All restraint devices must bear the
certification data, together with the
control mark, on a label solidly fixed to
the child restraint system which must
never be removed.

includes child
restraint systems for each weight
group. These devices are
recommended having been specifically
designed for Fiat vehicles.

Group 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried
with a rear facing child restraint system
of a type as shown in fig. 101 which,
supporting the head, does not induce
stress on the neck in the event of
sudden decelerations.
The child restraint system is secured by
the vehicle seat belts, as shown in and
it must restrain the child in turn with its
own belts.

Children from 15 to 25 kg may be
restrained directly by the car seat belts
fig. 103.
In this case, the child restraint system is
used to position the child correctly with
respect to the seat belts so that the
diagonal belt section crosses the child’s
chest and not the neck, and the lower
part is snug on the pelvis not the
abdomen.
Group 3
For children between 22 kg and 36 kg,
there are dedicated restraint systems
that allow the seat belt to be worn
correctly.
The fig. 104 shows the correct child
positioning on the rear seat.

INSTALLING AN ISOFIX
CHILD CARSEAT
87) 88) 89)
The rear side seats of the vehicle are
equipped with ISOFIX anchors, for
fitting child restraint systems quickly,
simply and safely. The ISOFIX system
lets you install the ISOFIX child
restraining system without using the car
seat belts but connecting them directly
to the carseat with three anchors in the
car.
Traditional child restraint systems can
be fitted alongside ISOFIX child restraint
systems on different seats in the same
vehicle.
To install an ISOFIX child restraint
system, attach it to the two metal
anchors 1 fig. 105 located behind the
cushion of the rear seat, in the point
where it meets the backrest, then fix the
upper hook of the child restraint system
to the dedicated anchor 2
fig. 106 located behind the seat
backrest.
As an example, fig. 108 shows an
example of a Universal ISOFIX child
restraint system for weight group 1.
The other weight groups are covered by
specific ISOFIX child restraint systems,
which can be used only if specifically
tested for this vehicle (see list of
vehicles provided with the child restraint
system).
IMPORTANT The fig. 108 is indicative

Main recommendations to carry
children safely
Install the child restraint systems on
the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of an
impact.
Keep children in rearward facing child
restraint systems for as long as
possible, until 3–4 years old if possible.
If the passenger's front airbag is
deactivated always check the
dedicated warning light on the trim
located on the dashboard to make sure
that it has actually been deactivated.
Carefully follow the instructions
supplied with the child restraint system.
Keep the instructions in the vehicle
along with the other documents and
this handbook. Do not use
second-hand child restraint systems
without instructions.
Only one child is to be strapped into
each restraint system; never carry two
children using one child restraint
system.
Always check that the seat belts do
not rest on the child’s neck.
Always check that the seat belt is
well fastened by pulling on it.
While travelling, do not let the child
sit incorrectly or unfasten the belts.
Never allow a child to put the belt's
diagonal section under an arm or
behind their back.
Never carry children on your lap,
even newborns. No one can hold a
child in the case of an accident.
If the car has been involved in a road
accident, replace the child restraint
system with a new one. In addition, and
depending on the type of child restraint
system installed, replace the isofix
anchorages or the seat belt with which
the child restraint system was
connected.
Any child restraint systems fitted
facing forward on an outside rear seat,
independently of its weight group, must
be fitted after removing the headrest
relative to the seat where it is to be
fitted. This does not apply to child
restraint systems that only consist of a
cushion (without backrest): these child
restraint systems must be installed
when the relative headrest is fitted.
WARNING
79) SEVERE DANGER When a front
passenger airbag is fitted, do not install
rearward facing child restraint systems on
the front passenger seat. Deployment of
the airbag in an accident could cause fatal
injuries to the child regardless of the
severity of the collision. It is advisable to
always carry children in a child restraint
system on the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of a
collision.
80) On the sun visor there is a label with
suitable symbols reminding the user that it
is compulsory to deactivate the airbag if a
rearward facing child restraint system is
fitted. Always comply with the instructions
on the passenger side sun visor (see the
"Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) -
Airbag" paragraph).
81) Should it be necessary to carry a child
on the passenger side front seat in a rear
facing child restraint system, the passenger
side front airbag and side bag must be
deactivated through the Connect system
main menu (see the "Supplementary
Restraint System (SRS) - Airbag"
paragraph), verifying deactivation by
checking whether the
LED has
illuminated on the dashboard. Move the
passenger's seat as far back as possible to
avoid contact between the child seat and
the dashboard.
82) Do not move the front or rear seat if a
child is seated on it or on the dedicated
child restraint system
83) Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an
accident the child restraint system may
become loose and the child may be
injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint
system for newborns or children, strictly
comply with the instructions provided by
the Manufacturer.
84) When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or with
the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from
the vehicle. Do not leave it unsecured
inside the passenger compartment. In this
way, in the case of sudden braking or an
accident, it will not cause injuries to the
occupants.
100
SAFETY

85) After installing a child restraint system,
do not move the seat: always remove the
child restraint system before making any
adjustment.
86) Always make sure that the diagonal
section of the seat belt does not pass
under the arms or behind the back of the
child. In the event of an accident the seat
belt will not be able to secure the child,
with the risk of injury, including fatal injury.
Therefore the child must always wear the
seat belt correctly.
87) Do not use the same lower anchorage
to install more than one child restraint
system.
88) If a Universal ISOFIX child seat system
is not fixed to all three anchorages, it will
not be able to protect the child correctly. In
a crash, the child could be seriously or
fatally injured.
89) Fit the child restraint system when the
car is stationary. The child restraint system
is correctly fixed to the brackets when you
hear the click. Follow the instructions for
assembly, disassembly and positioning that
the Manufacturer must supply with the
child restraint system.
SUPPLEMENTARY
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
(SRS) - AIRBAG
The vehicle is equipped with:
front driver airbag;
front passenger airbag;
driver and passenger front side bags
for pelvis, chest and shoulder
protection (Side bags);
side bags for head protection of front
seat passengers and rear side seat
passengers (window bag).
The location of the airbags on the
vehicle is marked by the word
"AIRBAG" in the middle of the steering
wheel, on the dashboard, on the side
trim or on a label placed next to the
airbag deployment area.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front (driver and passenger) airbags
protect the front seat occupants in the
event of head-on crashes of
medium-high severity, by placing the
cushion between the occupant and the
steering wheel or dashboard.
Therefore non-activation of airbags in
other types of collisions (side impacts,
rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) does not
indicate a system malfunction.
Driver and passenger front airbags are
not a replacement of but
complementary to the seat belts, which
should always be worn, as specified by
law in Europe and most non-European
countries.
In the event of impact, those not
wearing a seat belt are projected
forwards and may come into contact
with the bag which is still inflating. The
protection offered by the bag is
compromised in these circumstances.
Front airbags may not activate in the
following situations:
frontal impacts against highly
deformable objects not involving the
front surface of the vehicle (e.g. wing
collision against guard rail, etc.);
vehicle wedging under other
vehicles or protective barriers (e.g.
trucks or guard rails).
Failure to activate in the conditions
described above is due to the fact that
they may not provide any additional
protection compared with seat belts, so
their activation would be inappropriate.
In these cases, non-deployment does
not indicate a system malfunction.
The driver's and passenger's front
airbags have been designed and
calibrated to protect front seat
occupants wearing seat belts. At their
maximum inflation, their volume fills
most of the space between the steering
wheel and the driver and between the
dashboard and the passenger.
101

The airbags are not deployed in the
event of minor frontal impacts (for which
the restraining action of the seat belts is
sufficient).
Seat belts must always be worn. In the
event of frontal impacts they guarantee
correct positioning of the passenger.
Front airbag driver's side
This consists of an instantly inflating
bag contained in a special
compartment in the centre of the
steering wheel fig. 109.
Passenger side front airbag
This consists of an instantly inflating
bag contained in a special recess in the
dashboard fig. 110; this bag has a
larger volume than that of the driver's.
Passenger side front airbag and
child restraint systems
Rearward facing child restraint systems
must NEVER be fitted on the front seat
with an active passenger side airbag
since in the event of an impact the
airbag activation may cause fatal
injuries to the transported child.
ALWAYS comply with the instructions
on the label stuck on the passenger
side sun visor fig. 111.
Deactivating passenger front airbag
and seat-mounted side bag for
pelvis, chest and shoulders
protection
If a child must be carried on the front
seat in a rearward facing child restraint
system, deactivate the passenger side
front airbag and front side bag.
To deactivate the airbags use the
display Menu (see the instructions in the
"Display" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter).
fig. 112 The
LED is present at the
middle of the instrument panel.
Moving the ignition device to MAR
switches on the LED for about
8 seconds. If not, contact a Fiat
Dealership. During the first seconds, the
activation of the LED does not actually
show the passenger protection status,
but only checks its correct operation.
After a test of a few seconds, the LED
will indicate the status of the passenger
airbag protection.

SIDE BAGS
To help increase occupants protection
in the event of side impact collisions,
the vehicle is equipped with front side
bags and window bags.
Side bag
These comprise two bags located in
the front seat backrests fig. 114 which
protect the pelvis, chest and shoulder
area of the occupants in the event of a
side impact of medium/high severity.
They are marked by the "AIRBAG" label
sewn on the outer side of the front
seats.
Window bag
These consist of two “drop-down”
cushions, housed behind the side trim
of the roof and covered with finishing
elements fig. 115.
They are designed to protect the head
of front and rear occupants in the event
of a side collision, thanks to the wide
cushion inflation surface.
The deployment of side bags in the
event of side impacts of low severity is
not required.
In the event of a side impact, the
system provides best protection if the
passenger sits on the seat in a correct
position, thus allowing correct window
bag deployment.

Important notes
Do not wash the seats with water or
pressurised steam (wash by hand or at
automatic seat washing stations).
The front and/or side airbags may
activate in the event of sharp impacts to
the underbody of the vehicle (e.g.
impact with steps, pavements, potholes
or road bumps etc.).
When the airbag deploys it emits a
small amount of dust: the dust is
harmless and does not indicate the
beginning of a fire. The dust may irritate
the skin and eyes however: in this case,
wash with neutral soap and water.
Airbag checking, repair and
replacement must be carried out at a
Fiat Dealership.
If the vehicle is scrapped, have the
airbag system deactivated at a Fiat
Dealership.
Pretensioners and airbags are deployed
in different ways on the basis of the
type of collision. Failure to activate one
or more of the devices does not
indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
90) Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering wheel, on the dashboard in
the passenger side airbag area, on side
upholstery on the roof or on the seats.
Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on
the passenger side of the dashboard since
they could interfere with correct inflation of
the passenger airbag and also cause
serious injury to the passengers.
91) Always drive with your hands on the
rim of the steering wheel so that the airbag
can inflate freely if required. Do not drive
with your body bent forward. Keep your
back straight against the backrest.

P2000006-000-000
105

92) When there is an active passenger
airbag, DO NOT install rearward facing
child restraint systems on the front seat.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the child
regardless of the severity of the impact.
Therefore, always deactivate the passenger
side airbag when a rearward facing child
restraint system is installed on the front
passenger seat. The front passenger seat
must also be positioned back as far as
possible in order to prevent the child
restraint system from coming into contact
with the dashboard. Immediately reactivate
the passenger airbag as soon as the child
restraint system has been removed.
93) To deactivate the airbags using the
instrument panel menu, see the description
in the "Knowing the instrument panel"
chapter, "Menu Options" paragraph.
94) Do not affix rigid objects to the
garment hooks or support handles.
95) Do not rest your head, arms or elbows
on the door, windows or the area in which
the Window bag is located to avoid
possible injury during airbag inflation.
96) Never lean your head, arms or elbows
out of the window.
97) If, when the ignition device is turned to
MAR, the
warning light does not switch
on or stays on whilst driving, a fault 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. Contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately to have the system checked.
98) In some versions, in case of a LED
failure (located on the plate of the
instrument panel), the
warning light on
the instrument panel turns on and the
passenger side airbags are deactivated.
99) On cars with side bags, do not cover
the front seat backrests with extra covers.
100) Do not travel carrying objects in your
lap, in front of your chest or between your
lips (pipe, pencils, etc.): they could cause
severe injury if the airbag is deployed.
101) If the car has been stolen or in the
case of attempt to steal it, if it has been
subjected to vandalism or floods, have the
airbag system checked by a Fiat
Dealership.
102) If the ignition device is at MAR, even if
the engine is switched off, airbags may be
deployed when the vehicle is stationary
and hit by another vehicle. Therefore, even
if the vehicle is stationary, when an active
front passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT
install rearward facing child restraint
systems on the front passenger seat.
Deployment of the airbag following an
impact could cause fatal injuries to the
child. Therefore, always deactivate the
passenger side airbag when a rearward
facing child restraint system is installed on
the front passenger seat. The front
passenger seat must also be positioned
back as far as possible in order to prevent
the child restraint system from coming into
contact with the dashboard. Immediately
reactivate the passenger airbag as soon as
the child restraint system has been
removed. Also remember that, if the
ignition device is set to STOP, none of the
safety devices (airbags or pretensioners)
will be deployed in the event of collision.
Non-deployment in such cases does not
indicate a system malfunction.
103) Malfunction of the
warning light is
indicated by the activation of an airbag
failure symbol and a dedicated message
on the instrument panel display (or, for
versions where provided, by the activation
of a blinking generic failure warning light).
The pyrotechnic charges are not disabled.
Contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to
have the system checked.
104) The airbag deployment threshold is
higher than that of the pretensioners. For
collisions in the range between the two
thresholds, it is normal for only the
pretensioners to be activated.
106
SAFETY

105) The airbag does not replace seat
belts but increases their efficiency.
Because front airbags are not deployed for
low-speed crashes, side collisions,
rear-end shunts or rollovers, occupants are
protected, in addition to any side bags,
only by their seat belts, which must
therefore always be fastened.

STARTING AND DRIVING

STARTING THE
ENGINE
Before starting the engine, adjust the
seat, the interior rear view mirrors, the
door mirrors and fasten the seat belt
correctly.
Never press the accelerator pedal for
starting the engine.
If necessary, messages indicating the
starting procedure can be shown on
the display.
ENGINE STARTING
PROCEDURE
106) 107) 108) 109)
37) 38) 39) 40)
Proceed as follows:
engage the parking brake and place
the gear lever in neutral;
fully depress the clutch pedal
without touching the accelerator;
only for diesel versions, bring the
ignition device to MAR, warning light
will come on in the instrument
panel and wait for the warning light to
switch off;
turn the ignition device to AVV and
release it as soon as the engine starts;
if the engine does not start within
10 seconds, bring the ignition device
back to STOP and wait for
10-15 seconds before repeating the
starting procedure;
after the manoeuvre has been
repeated, if the problem persists,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
106) Do not try to start the engine pouring
fuel or other flammable fluid inside the
throttle body air intake: this might damage
the engine and injury people nearby.
107) It is dangerous to run the engine in
enclosed areas. The engine takes in
oxygen and releases carbon dioxide,
carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.
108) The brake servo is not active until the
engine is started, so you would need to
apply much more force than usual to the
brake pedal.
109) Do not start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. These
manoeuvres may damage the catalytic
converter.
IMPORTANT
37) We recommend that during the initial
period, or during the first 1600 km, you do
not drive to full car performance (e.g.
excessive acceleration, long journeys at top
speed, sharp braking, etc.).
38) When the engine is switched off never
leave the ignition device in the MAR
position to prevent useless current
absorption from draining the battery.
39) A quick burst on the accelerator before
turning off the engine serves absolutely no
practical purpose; it wastes fuel and is
especially damaging to turbocharged
engines.
40) Warning light
will flash after starting
or during prolonged cranking to indicate a
fault with the glow plug heating system. If
the engine starts, the vehicle can be used
as normal, but a Fiat Dealership must be
contacted as soon as possible.
109

PARKING THE
VEHICLE
When parking and leaving the car,
proceed as follows:
engage a gear (1
st
gear if facing
uphill or reverse if facing downhill) and
leave the wheels turned;
stop the engine and engage the
handbrake;
always remove the ignition key.
Block the wheels with a wedge or a
stone if the car is parked on a steep
slope.
IMPORTANT NEVER leave the vehicle
with the gearbox in neutral.
PARKING BRAKE
110) 111)

116) The electronic Cruise Control can be
dangerous if the system cannot keep a
constant speed. In specific conditions
speed may be excessive, resulting in the
risk of losing control of the vehicle and
causing accidents. Do not use the device
in heavy traffic or on winding, icy, snowy or
slippery roads.

43) 44) 45) 47) 47) 48) 49)
DESCRIPTION
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a
driver assist device which combines the
Cruise Control functions with one for
controlling the distance from the vehicle
ahead.
The device allows to hold the vehicle at
the desired speed without needing to
press the accelerator. It also allows to
hold a given distance from the vehicle
ahead (the distance can be set by the
driver).
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) uses
a radar sensor, located behind the front
bumper fig. 121, to detect the presence
of a vehicle close ahead.
The device further enhances driving
comfort provided by the electronic
Cruise Control when on the motorway
or out of town with light traffic.
The use of the device is therefore not
advantageous on busy roads or in
town.
IMPORTANT NOTES
If the sensor does not detect any
vehicle ahead, the device will maintain a
fixed set speed.
If the sensor detects a vehicle ahead,
the device automatically intervenes by
braking (or accelerating) slightly in order
not to exceed the original set speed, so
that the vehicle keeps the preset
distance, seeking to adapt to the speed
of the vehicle ahead.
It is advisable to turn the device off in
the following cases:
driving in fog, heavy rain, snow,
heavy traffic and in complex driving
situations (e.g. on motorways with
roadworks in progress);
driving near a bend (winding roads),
icy, snowy, slippery roads or with steep
climbs and descents;
entering a turn lane or on a slip road;
towing a trailer;
when circumstances do not allow
safe driving at a constant speed.
There are two operating modes:
121
P2000076-000-000
116
STARTING AND DRIVING

“Adaptive Cruise Control” mode
to hold an appropriate distance
between vehicles (a dedicated message
is shown on the instrument panel
display);
electronic “Cruise Control” mode
to hold the vehicle at a constant
preset speed.
To change the operation mode, use the
button on the steering wheel (see that
described on the following pages).
The "electronic Cruise Control" does
not vary the speed according to the
presence or not of vehicles ahead.
Always adjust the speed according to
traffic conditions.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
Activation
To activate the device, press and
release the button
fig. 122.
With the device activated and ready to
work, the display shows a message
indicating the "readiness" of the system
and a dedicated grey symbol (as shown
in fig. 123 ).
IMPORTANT It is dangerous to leave
the device activated when it is not
used. There is a risk of inadvertently
activating it and losing control of the
vehicle due to unexpected excessive
speed.
Deactivation
With the device active, to deactivate it
press and release the button
. The
display will show a dedicated message.
SETTING THE DESIRED
SPEED
The device can only be set with the
speed over 30 km/h (or equivalent
in mph) and under 160 km/h (or
equivalent in mph). When the vehicle
reaches the desired speed, press and
release the button SET + or SET – the
display will show the set speed.
With the system set, the relative symbol
(fig. 123 ) is white.
Then take your foot off the accelerator
pedal.
IMPORTANT Pressing the accelerator
pedal again, the car’s speed may
exceed the set value.
While the accelerator pedal is pressed:
a dedicated message is displayed for
a few seconds;
the device will not be able to control
the distance between the vehicle and
the one ahead. In this case the speed
will be determined only by the position
of the accelerator pedal.
The device will return to normal
operation as soon as the accelerator
pedal is released.
122
P2000060-000-000
123
P2000077-000-000
117

The system cannot be set:
when pressing the brake pedal;
when the manual parking brake has
been operated;
when the brakes are overheated;
when the gear lever is in R (reverse),
neutral or in 1st (first gear engaged);
when the clutch is pressed;
when the vehicle speed is not within
the settable speed range;
when the engine rpm is above a
maximum threshold or below a
minimum threshold;
when the ESC (or ABS or other
stability control systems) are operating
or have just operated;
during automatic braking by the Full
Brake Control system;
when the Speed Limiter is active;
when the electronic Cruise Control is
active;
in case of failure of the device;
when the engine is off;
in case of obstruction of the radar
sensor (in this case the bumper area
where it is located must be cleaned).
In case of system set, the conditions
described above also cause a
cancellation or deactivation of the
system with times that may vary
according to the conditions.
IMPORTANT With the device set, it is
possible to reach speeds higher than
those set in the system (or equivalent
in mph) by pressing the accelerator
pedal. In this situation, the device does
not turn off automatically, but the
device’s functions are limited: it is
therefore recommended to turn it off.
CHANGING SPEED
Increasing speed
After having set the device, the stored
speed can be stored by holding the
SET + button pressed.
Press the SET + button once, the set
speed will increase by 1 km/h (or the
equivalent in mph). Each subsequent
touch of the button will increase the
speed by 1 km/h (or the equivalent
in mph).
Hold the SET + button down, the set
speed will increase in 10 km/h steps (or
the equivalent in mph) until the button is
released. The set speed increase is
shown on the display.
Decreasing speed
After having set the device, the stored
speed can be reduced by holding the
SET –. button down.
Press the SET – button once, the set
speed will decrease by 1 km/h (or the
equivalent in mph). Each subsequent
touch of the button will reduce the
speed by 1 km/h (or the equivalent
in mph).
Hold the SET – button down, the set
speed will decrease in 10 km/h steps
(or the equivalent in mph) until the
button is released. The set speed
decrease is shown on the display.
IMPORTANT NOTES
By keeping the accelerator pedal
depressed, the vehicle can continue to
accelerate beyond the set speed. In this
case, press SET + (or SET–)tosetthe
speed to the current speed of the
vehicle.
When the SET – button is pressed to
reduce the speed, the braking system
intervenes automatically if the engine
brake does not slow the vehicle down
sufficiently to reach the set speed.
The device holds the set speed uphill
and downhill; however a slight variation
is entirely normal, particularly on slight
gradients.
Gears can be shifted during operation
of the device to allow to select the gear
suited to the set speed and keep the
device set. The device is cancelled
when you press and hold the clutch
pedal down or putting the gear lever in
the neutral position for more than a
certain time limit.
The device is switched off while driving
if the brakes overheat.
118
STARTING AND DRIVING

ACCELERATING WHEN
OVERTAKING
When driving with the device active and
following a vehicle, the device provides
additional acceleration to facilitate
overtaking, when travelling over a given
speed and switches on the left direction
indicator (of the right indicator for
right-hand drive versions).
In left-hand traffic, the overtaking assist
function is only active when the
left-hand lane is used for overtaking the
vehicle ahead (the opposite activation
logic is used in right-hand traffic
countries).
The device detects the direction of
traffic automatically when the vehicle
passes from left-hand traffic to
right-hand traffic. In this case, the
overtaking assist function is only active
when the reference vehicle is overtaken
on the right.
The additional acceleration is activated
when the driver uses the right direction
indicator.
In this condition, the device no longer
provides the overtaking assist function
on the left-hand side until it determines
that the vehicle has returned to
left-hand traffic conditions.
RECALLING THE SPEED
Once the system has been cancelled
but not deactivated, if a speed was
previously set simply press the RES
(Resume) button and remove your foot
from the accelerator to recall it.
The system will be set to the last stored
speed.
Before returning to the previously set
speed, bring the speed close to that
value, press the RES (Resume) button
and then release it.
IMPORTANT The recall function must
only be used if the road and traffic
conditions so allow. Recalling an
excessively high or low speed for the
current traffic and road conditions could
cause an acceleration or a deceleration
of the vehicle. Failure to comply with
these precautions may cause serious
accidents and fatal injuries.
SETTING THE DISTANCE
BETWEEN VEHICLES
The distance between your vehicle and
the vehicle ahead may be set to 1 bar
(short), 2 bars (medium), 3 bars (long),
4 bars (maximum) (see fig. 124 ).
The distances from the vehicle ahead
are proportional to speed. The interval
of time with respect to the vehicle
ahead remains constant and varies
from 1 second (for the short distance
1-bar setting) to 2 seconds (for the
maximum distance 4-bar setting).
The set distance is shown on the
display with a symbol in the “Driver
Assist” area.
The setting is 4 (maximum) the first time
the device is used. After the distance
has been modified by the driver, the
124
P2000094-000-000
119

new distance will be stored also after
the system is deactivated and
reactivated.
To decrease the distance
Press and release the
button to
decrease the distance setting.
The distance setting decreases by one
bar (shorter) every time the button is
pressed.
The set speed is held if there are no
vehicles ahead. Once the shortest
distance has been reached, a further
press of the button will set the longest
distance.
If a slower vehicle is detected in the
same lane, it will be shown on the
display in the “Driver Assist” area. The
device will automatically adjust the car’s
speed to maintain the set distance,
independently of the set speed.
The vehicle holds the set distance until:
the vehicle ahead accelerates to a
speed higher than the set speed;
the vehicle ahead leaves the lane or
the detection field of the Adaptive
Cruise Control device sensor;
the distance setting is changed;
the Adaptive Cruise Control device is
deactivated/cancelled.
IMPORTANT The maximum breaking
applied by the device is limited. The
driver may apply the brakes in all cases
if needed.
IMPORTANT If the device predicts that
the braking level is not sufficient to hold
the set distance, the driver is warned by
a message indicating that the vehicle
ahead is too close. An acoustic signal is
also emitted. In this case, it is advisable
to brake immediately as necessary to
hold a safe distance from the vehicle
ahead.
IMPORTANT The driver is responsible
for ensuring that there are no
pedestrians, other vehicles or
objectives along the direction of the
vehicle. Failure to comply with these
precautions may cause serious
accidents and injuries.
IMPORTANT The driver is fully
responsible for holding a safe distance
from the vehicle ahead respecting the
highway code in force in the respective
country.
DEACTIVATION
The device is deactivated and the set
speed is cancelled if:
the button is pressed on the
Adaptive Cruise Control;
the button is pressed on the
electronic Cruise Control;
the Speed Limiter button is pressed;
the ignition device is in the STOP
position.
The device is cancelled (the set speed
and distance are stored):
when the CANC button is pressed;
when the conditions shown in the
“Setting the desired speed” paragraph
occur;
when the vehicle speed drops under
the minimum set speed (e.g. in
presence of slow vehicles).
If these conditions occur while the
system is decelerating with respect to a
vehicle ahead, the system could
continue the deceleration, if necessary,
also after it is cancelled or deactivated
within the minimum speed settable on
the system.
SYSTEM LIMITED
OPERATION SIGNAL
If the dedicated message is shown on
the display, a condition limiting the
system operation may have occurred.
The possible cause of this limitation is a
failure.
When the conditions limiting the system
functions end, this will go back to
normal and complete operation. Should
the fault persist, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
120
STARTING AND DRIVING

PRECAUTIONS WHILE
DRIVING
The device may not work correctly in
some driving conditions (see below):
the driver must control the vehicle at all
times.
Towing a trailer
Use of the device is not recommended
while towing a trailer.
Vehicle not aligned
The device may not detect a vehicle
travelling on the same lane but which is
not aligned along the same direction of
travel or a vehicle which is cutting in
from a side lane. Sufficient distance
from the vehicles ahead may not be
guaranteed in these cases.
The non-aligned vehicle can weave in
and out of the driving direction causing
the vehicle to brake or accelerate
unexpectedly.
Steering and curves
On curves fig. 125 with the device set,
it could limit speed and acceleration to
guarantee vehicle stability even if no
vehicles are detected ahead. When
leaving the curve, the device resets the
previously set speed.
IMPORTANT In case of narrow curves,
the performance of the device could be
limited. In this case, it is advisable to
deactivate the device.
Using the device on slopes
When driving on roads with variable
gradient, the device may not detect the
presence of a vehicle on the lane.
Device performance could be limited
according to speed, load, traffic
conditions and gradient steepness.
Lane change
The device may not detect the
presence of a vehicle until it is fully in
your lane.
In this case, sufficient distance from the
vehicle which is changing lane may not
be guaranteed: it is advisable to pay the
utmost attention at all times and be
always ready to press the brakes if
needed.
Small vehicles
Some narrow vehicles (e.g. bicycles
and motorcycles fig. 127 ) travelling
near the outer edges of the lane or
which enter the lane from kerbside are
not detected until they are fully in the
lane.

STARTING AND DRIVING

44) The section of the bumper before the
sensor must not be covered with
adhesives, auxiliary headlights or any other
object.
45) Operation can be adversely affected by
any structural change made to the vehicle,
such as a modification to the front
geometry, tyre change, or a heavier load
than the standard load of the vehicle.
46) Incorrect repairs made on the front part
of the vehicle (e.g. bumper, chassis) may
alter the position of the radar sensor, and
adversely affect its operation. Go to a Fiat
Dealership for any operation of this type.
47) Do not tamper nor operate on the radar
sensor. In the event of a sensor failure,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
48) Do not wash with high-pressure jets in
the bumper lower area: in particular do not
operate on the system's electrical
connector.
49) Be careful in the case of repairs and
new paintings in the area around the
sensor (panel covering the sensor on the
left side of the bumper). In the event of a
frontal impact the sensor may automatically
deactivate and display a warning to indicate
that the sensor needs to be repaired. Even
without a malfunction warning, deactivate
the system operation if you think that the
position of the radar sensor has changed
(e.g. due to low-speed frontal impact as
during parking manoeuvres). In these
cases, go to a Fiat Dealership to have the
radar sensor realigned or replaced.
PARKING SENSORS
(where provided)
SENSORS
123)
50) 51) 52)
The parking sensors, located in the rear
bumper fig. 129, are used to detect the
presence of any obstacles near the rear
part of the vehicle.
The sensors warn the driver about the
presence of possible obstacles with an
intermittent acoustic signal and,
depending on the version, also with
visual indications on the instrument
panel display.
Activation
The sensors are automatically activated
when reverse gear is selected. As the
distance from the obstacle behind the
vehicle decreases, the frequency of the
acoustic signal increases.
Acoustic signal
When reverse is engaged and there is
an obstacle behind the vehicle, an
acoustic signal is activated and the
signal varies as the distance of the
obstacle from the bumper varies.
The frequency of the acoustic signal:
increases as the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle decreases;
becomes continuous when the
distance separating the vehicle from the
obstacle is less than about 30 cm;
is constant if the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle is
unchanged. If this situation concerns
the side sensors, the signal will stop
after approximately 3 seconds to avoid,
for example, indications in the event of
manoeuvres along a wall.
stops immediately if the distance of
the obstacle increases.
When the system emits the acoustic
signal, the volume of the Uconnect™
system (where provided) is
automatically lowered.
129
P2000007-000-000
123

Detection distances
If several obstacles are detected by the
sensors, only the nearest one is
considered.
Indication on display
The indications regarding the Park
Assist system are shown only if the
"Acoustic signal and display" item in the
"Settings" menu of the Uconnect™ 5"
or 7" HD system (where provided) was
previously selected (for more
information, see the description in the
dedicated chapter).
The system indicates the presence of
an obstacle by displaying a single arc in
one of the possible areas, in
accordance with the distance of the
object and the position in relation to the
vehicle. If the obstacle is detected in the
rear central area, a single arc will be
displayed as the obstacle approaches,
first constant, then flashing, in addition
to an acoustic signal.
FAULT INDICATION
Parking sensor faults, if any, will be
indicated when reverse is engaged by
the switching on of the
symbol on
the instrument panel together with the
message on the display (see
description in the "Warning lights and
messages" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter).
OPERATION WITH A
TRAILER
The operation of the sensors is
automatically deactivated when the
trailer's electrical connection is inserted
in the vehicle's tow hook socket.
Sensors are reactivated on removing
the trailer's electrical connection.
IMPORTANT NOTES
When parking, take the utmost care
over obstacles that may be above or
under the sensor. Objects close to the
vehicle are not detected under certain
circumstances and could therefore
cause damage to the vehicle or be
damaged.
Some conditions may influence the
performance of the parking system:
reduced sensor sensitivity and a
reduction in the parking assistance
system performance could be due to
the presence of: ice, snow, mud, paint,
etc. on the surface of the sensor;
the sensor may detect a
non-existent obstacle ("echo
interference") due to mechanical
interference, for example when washing
the vehicle, in rain (strong wind), hail;
the signals sent by the sensor can
also be altered by the presence of
ultrasonic systems (e.g. pneumatic
brake systems of trucks or pneumatic
drills) near the vehicle;
parking assistance system
performance can also be influenced by
the position of the sensors, for example
due to a change in the ride setting
(caused by wear to the shock
absorbers, suspension), or by changing
tyres, overloading the vehicle or fitting
specific trims that require the vehicle to
be lowered;
the presence of a tow hook without
trailer, which may interfere with the
correct operation of the parking
sensors;
the presence of adhesives on the
sensors. Therefore, take care not to
place adhesives on the sensors.
WARNING
123) Parking and other potentially
dangerous manoeuvres are, however,
always the driver’s responsibility. When
performing these operations, always make
sure that there are no other people
(especially children) or animals on the route
you want to take. The parking sensors are
an aid for the driver, but the driver must
never allow their attention to lapse during
potentially dangerous manoeuvres, even
those executed at low speeds.
124
STARTING AND DRIVING

IMPORTANT
50) The sensors must be clean of mud,
dirt, snow or ice in order for the system to
operate correctly. Be careful not to scratch
or damage the sensors while cleaning
them. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The sensors should be washed
using clean water with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. When using special
washing equipment such as high pressure
jets or steam cleaning, clean the sensors
very quickly keeping the jet more than
10 cm away.
51) Have interventions on the bumper in
the area of the sensors carried out only by
a Fiat Dealership. Interventions on the
bumper that are not carried out properly
may compromise the operation of the
parking sensors
52) Only have the bumpers repainted or
any retouches to the paintwork in the area
of the sensors carried out by a Fiat
Dealership. Incorrect paint application
could affect the operation of the parking
sensors.

STARTING AND DRIVING

IMPORTANT NOTES
IMPORTANT In some circumstances,
such as with ice, snow or mud on the
surface of the camera, the camera
sensitivity may be reduced.
IMPORTANT When parking, take the
utmost care over obstacles that may be
above or under the camera range.
WARNING
124) Parking and other potentially
dangerous manoeuvres are, however,
always the driver’s responsibility. While
carrying out these manoeuvres, always
make sure that no people (especially
children) or animals are in the area
concerned. The camera is an aid for the
driver, but the driver must never allow
his/her attention to lapse during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres, even those
executed at low speeds. Always keep a
slow speed, so as to promptly brake in the
case of obstacles.
IMPORTANT
53) It is vital, for correct operation, that the
camera is always kept clean and free from
any mud, dirt, snow or ice. Be careful not
to scratch or damage the camera while
cleaning it. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The camera must be washed using
clean water, with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. In washing stations
which use steam or high-pressure jets,
clean the camera quickly, keeping the
nozzle more than 10 cm away from the
sensors. Also, do not apply stickers to the
camera.
TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT NOTES
125) 126)
For towing caravans or trailers the
vehicle must be fitted with an approved
tow hook and an adequate electrical
system. Should aftermarket installation
be requested, this must be carried out
by specialists.
Install any specific and/or additional
door mirrors as specified by the
Highway Code.
Remember that, when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, braking
distances increase and overtaking takes
longer depending on the overall weight
of the trailer.
Engage a low gear when driving
downhill, rather than constantly using
the brake.
The weight the trailer exerts on the
vehicle tow hook reduces the vehicle's
loading capacity by the same amount.
To make sure that the maximum
towable weight is not exceeded (given
in the vehicle registration document)
account should be taken of the fully
laden trailer, including accessories and
luggage.
127

Do not exceed the speed limits specific
to each country you are driving in, in the
case of vehicles towing trailers. In any
case, the top speed must not exceed
100 km/h.
Any electric brake must be powered
directly by the battery through a cable
with a cross-section of no less than
2.5 mm
2
.
In addition to the electrical branches,
the vehicle electrical system can only be
connected to the supply cable for an
electric brake and to the cable for an
internal light for the trailer, not
exceeding 15 W. For connections, use
the preset control unit with a battery
cable with section not less than 2.5 mm
2
.
IMPORTANT The use of auxiliary loads
other than external lights (e.g. electric
brake) must take place with engine
running.
INSTALLING A TOW
HOOK
To install a tow hook contact a Fiat
Dealership.
WARNING
125) The ABS with which the car is
equipped will not control the braking
system of the trailer. Particular caution is
required on slippery roads.
126) Never modify the braking system of
the vehicle to control the trailer brake. The
trailer braking system must be fully
independent of the car’s hydraulic system.
REFUELLING THE
VEHICLE
127) 128) 129)
Before refuelling, make sure that the
fuel type is correct.
Also stop the engine before refuelling.
PETROL ENGINES
Only use 95 R.O.N. unleaded petrol (EN
228 specifications).
DIESEL ENGINES
54)
Only use Diesel for motor vehicles
(EN590 specification).
When using or parking the vehicle for a
long time in the mountains or cold
areas, it is advisable to refuel using
locally available Diesel. In this case, it is
also advisable to keep the tank over
50% full.
REFUELLING CAPACITY
To ensure that you fill the tank
completely, top up twice after the first
click of the fuel supply gun.
Further top-ups could cause faults in
the fuel feeding system.

in order for the fuel to flow inside the
tank;
then remove the dispenser from the
filler and close flap 1.
The flap is provided with a dust cover
gaiter 2 which prevents deposits of
impurities and dust at the end of the
filler when the flap is closed.
Emergency refuelling
If there is no fuel in the vehicle or the
supply circuit is completely empty,
proceed as follows to reintroduce fuel
to the tank:
open the boot and take adaptor 3
fig. 133, located in the tool box or in the
Fix&Go kit container (according to the
versions);
open flap 1 fig. 132, as described
previously;

qualified LPG refuelling personnel.
IMPORTANT Depending on the country,
there are various types of adapters for
the refuelling pump. Adapter 1 fig. 135,
supplied with the car and located in a
special case, is specifically designed for
the country in which the car is sold. If
you are in a different country, find out
what type of adapter is used there.
IMPORTANT Before refuelling with LPG,
the qualified personnel must make sure
that the adapter is correctly screwed
onto the filler.
IMPORTANT Look after the LPG
adapter carefully so that it does not get
damaged.
IMPORTANT Only use LPG for motor
vehicles.
WARNING
127) Do not apply any object/plug to the
end of the filler which is not provided for
the car. The use of non-compliant
objects/plugs could cause a pressure
increase inside the tank, resulting in
dangerous situations.
128) Do not bring naked flames or lit
cigarettes near to the fuel filler: fire risk.
Keep your face away from the fuel filler to
prevent breathing in harmful vapours.
129) Do not use a mobile phone near the
refuelling pump: risk of fire.
IMPORTANT
54) For diesel engines, only use diesel fuel
for motor vehicles in accordance with EN
590 European specifications. The use of
other products or mixtures may damage
the engine beyond repair and consequently
invalidate the warranty, due to the damage
caused. If you accidentally introduce other
types of fuel into the tank, do not start the
engine. Empty the tank. If the engine has
been run for even an extremely limited
amount of time, you must not only drain the
fuel tank, but the rest of the supply circuit
as well.

GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS
Before replacing a bulb check the
contacts for oxidation;
replace blown bulbs with others of
the same type and power;
after replacing a headlight bulb,
always check its alignment;
when a light is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is intact
before changing the bulb. For the
location of fuses, refer to the paragraph
"If a fuse blows" in this chapter.
IMPORTANT When the weather is cold
or damp or after heavy rain or washing,
the surface of headlights or rear lights
may steam up and/or form drops of
condensation on the inside. This is a
natural phenomenon due to the
difference in temperature and humidity
between the inside and the outside of
the glass which does not indicate a
fault and does not compromise the
normal operation of lighting devices.
The mist disappears quickly when the
lights are turned on, starting from the
centre of the diffuser, extending
progressively towards the edges.

that the vehicle is at a sufficient distance
from the road, to avoid being run over.
140) Alert other drivers that the car is
stationary in compliance with local
regulations: hazard warning lights, warning
triangle, etc. Any passengers on board
should leave the car, especially if it is
heavily laden. Passengers should stay
away from on-coming traffic while the
wheel is being changed.
141) The jack is a tool developed and
designed only for changing a wheel, if a
tyre gets punctured or damaged, on the
vehicle with which it is supplied or on other
vehicles of the same model. Any other use,
e.g. to jack up other vehicle models or
different things, is strictly prohibited. Never
use it to carry out maintenance or repairs
under the vehicle or to change
summer/winter wheels and vice versa: we
advise you to contact a Fiat Dealership.
Never go under the raised vehicle: use it
only in the positions indicated. Do not use
the jack for loads higher than the one
shown on its label. Never start the engine
with vehicle raised. If the vehicle is raised
more than necessary, everything can
become more unstable, with the risk of the
vehicle dropping violently. Thus, lift the
vehicle only as needed in order to access
the spare wheel.
142) Never tamper with the inflation valve.
Never introduce tools of any kind between
the rim and the tyre. Check tyre and
space-saver wheel pressures regularly,
complying with the values given in the
"Technical specifications" chapter.
IMPORTANT
58) When turning the jack handle make
sure that it can turn freely without scraping
your hand against the ground. The moving
components of the jack ("worm screw" and
joints) can also cause injuries: avoid
touching them. If you come into contact
with lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.

activate the compressor moving
on-off 1 button to I (ON) position
fig. 189. When the pressure gauge
2 shows the car’s required pressure
(see section “Wheels” under “Technical
data” chapter), switch off the
compressor moving on-off button 1 to
0 position. If after 5 minutes from the
compressor ignition, the pressure
gauge 2 indicates a pressure less than
1.8 bar / 26 psi, switch off the
compressor, disconnect the sealing
fluid tube from the tyre valve, re-screw
the valve cap and move the car about
10 meters to allow the distribution of
sealing fluid in the tyre. Stop the car

153

safely and repeat the operation above
until the required pressure is reached. If
after other 5 min. from the compressor
ignition, the pressure gauge 2 still
indicates a pressure lower than 1.8 bar
/ 26 psi, the TYRE IS TOO DAMAGED
AND CANNOT BE REPAIRED. Remove
and place the kit in the specific
compartment and contact a Fiat
Dealership;
if the required pressure is reached,
restart driving. Do not exceed 80 km/h.
Avoid sudden acceleration or braking.
After driving for about 8 km / 5 miles,
place the vehicle in a safe and suitable
area, engaging the parking brake. Pick
up the kit, ensure the on-off button 1 is
in 0 position, insert the electrical
connector in the car’s 12V socket.
Remove the cap from the valve of
repaired tyre, disconnect and pull out
the black inflation tube 1 fig. 191,
connect and block it with the stack to
the valve. Inspect the pressure gauge
2 to check the tyre pressure fig. 189;
if the pressure indicated is lower than
1.8 bar / 26 psi, the TYRE IS TOO
DAMAGED AND CANNOT BE
REPAIRED. Remove and place the kit in
the specific compartment and contact a
Fiat Dealership;
if the pressure indicated is equal to or
higher than 1.8 bar / 26 psi, switch on
the compressor and reach the required
pressure. Disconnect and replace the
kit in the specific compartment.
Carefully drive and reach the Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible;
PRESSURE RESTORING
The compressor can also be used to
check and, if necessary, restore the tyre
pressure.
Disconnect and pull out the black
inflation tube 1, connect and block it
with the stalk to the tyre valve fig. 191.
With the same procedure it is possible
to inflate bicycle tyres and balloons.
The kit should be used by adults and
cannot be used by children.

accidental electrical contact and cause
serious injury.
147) The batteries contain acid that can
burn skin or eyes. Batteries produce
hydrogen, which is easily flammable and
explosive. Therefore, keep away flames or
devices which may cause sparks.
IMPORTANT
62) Never use a fast battery-charger to
start the engine as this could damage the
electronic systems of your vehicle,
particularly the ignition and engine fuel
supply control units.

following spark could lead to battery
explosion and cause serious harm. Only
use the specific earth point; do not use any
other exposed metallic part.
FUEL CUT-OFF
SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Diesel and petrol versions
This intervenes in the case of an impact
causing:
the interruption of the fuel supply
with the engine consequently switching
off;
the automatic unlocking of the
doors;
turning on of the lights inside the
vehicle;
deactivation of climate control
system ventilation;
switching on of the hazard warning
lights (to deactivate the lights press the
button on the dashboard).
On some versions, the intervention of
the system is indicated by a message
shown on the display. In the same way,
a dedicated message on the display
warns the driver if system operation is
compromised.
IMPORTANT Carefully check the vehicle
for fuel leaks, for instance in the engine
compartment, under the vehicle or near
the tank area. After a collision, bring the
ignition device to STOP to prevent the
battery from running down.
LPG versions
On LPG versions, in addition to the
above, the fuel cut-off system stops
petrol supply immediately, closes the
LPG safety solenoid valve and stops
injection, consequently shutting off the
engine.
157

FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM RESET
To restore correct operation of the vehicle, carry out the following procedure (this procedure must be started and completed
within less than 1 minute):

Proceed as follows:
release and remove the protective
plug;
take tow hook 1 fig. 196 and screw it
fully onto the front threaded pin.
Rear
Proceed as follows:
release and remove the protective
plug;
take tow hook 1 fig. 196 and screw it
fully onto the rear threaded pin.
WARNING
149) Before towing, turn the key to MAR
and then to STOP without extracting it. The
steering column will automatically lock
when the key is removed and the wheels
cannot be steered. Also check that the
transmission is in neutral.
150) The brake servo and the
electromechanical power steering will not
work while the vehicle is being towed. You
will therefore need to apply more force on
the brake pedal and steering wheel. Do not
use flexible ropes when towing, and avoid
jerky movements. During towing, make
sure that the trailer hitch does not damage
any components it is touching. When
towing the car, you must comply with all
specific traffic regulations and adopt an
appropriate driving behaviour. Do not start
the engine while towing the car. Before
tightening the ring, clean the threaded
housing thoroughly. Make sure that the ring
is fully screwed into the housing before
towing the car.
151) The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on the road.
You are allowed to tow the vehicle for short
distances using an appropriate device in
accordance with the highway code (a rigid
bar), to move the vehicle on the road in
readiness for towing or transporting via a
breakdown vehicle. Tow rings MUST NOT
be used to tow vehicles off the road or
where there are obstacles and/or for
towing operations using cables or other
non-rigid devices. In compliance with the
above conditions, towing must take place
with the two vehicles (one towing, the other
towed) aligned as much as possible along
the same centre line.

SERVICING AND CARE

SCHEDULED
SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the vehicle
under the best conditions.
For this reason, Fiat has planned a
series of checks and services at fixed
distance intervals and, for
versions/markets, where provided, at
fixed time intervals, as described in the
Scheduled Servicing Plan.
Regardless of the above, it is always
necessary to carefully follow the
instructions in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan (e.g. periodically check level of
liquids, tyre pressure, etc.).
Scheduled Servicing is offered by all
Fiat Dealerships according to fixed time
or kilometres/miles intervals. If, during
each operation, in addition to the ones
scheduled, the need arises for further
replacements or repairs, these may be
carried out with the owner's explicit
agreement only. If your vehicle is used
frequently for towing, the interval
between one service operation and the
next should be reduced.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Scheduled Servicing interventions are
set out by the Manufacturer. Failure to
comply with the schedule may
invalidate the warranty.
It is advisable to inform a Fiat
Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the next
service.
161

SCHEDULED SERVICING PLAN (petrol versions — LPG versions)

ENGINE OIL
154)
65)
Check the oil level a few minutes (about
5) after the engine has stopped, with
the vehicle parked on level ground.
Check that the oil level is between the
MIN and MAX references on the
dipstick.
If the level of the oil is close to or below
the MIN mark, add oil via the filler fitting
until the MAX mark is reached.
Take out the engine oil dipstick, clean it
with a lint-free cloth and reinsert it.
Extract it again and check that the level
is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the dipstick.
Engine oil consumption
66)
3)
The maximum engine oil consumption
is usually 400 grams every 1000 km.
When the car is new, the engine needs
to be run in; therefore the engine oil
consumption can only be considered
stabilised after the first 5000 - 6000 km.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing
the oil, let the engine turn over for a few
seconds and wait a few minutes after
turning it off before you check the level.
ENGINE COOLANT FLUID

Check that the fluid is at the max. level.
If the fluid level in the reservoir is too
low, undo the reservoir cap 1 and add
the fluid described in the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
IMPORTANT Carefully clean the cap of
the reservoir and the surrounding
surface. Take great care to ensure that
impurities do not enter the reservoir
when the cap is opened.
For topping-up, always use a funnel
with integrated filter with mesh equal to
or lower than 0.12 mm.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid is hygroscopic
(i.e. it absorbs moisture). For this
reason, if the vehicle is mainly used in
areas with a high degree of
atmospheric humidity, the fluid should
be replaced at more frequent intervals
than specified in the "Scheduled
Servicing Plan".

USEFUL ADVICE FOR
EXTENDING THE LIFE OF
YOUR BATTERY
Useful advice for extending the life
of your battery
To avoid draining your battery and
make it last longer, observe the
following instructions:
when you park the car, ensure that
the doors, tailgate and bonnet are
closed properly, to prevent any lights
from remaining on inside the
passenger's compartment;
switch off all roof lights inside the car:
the car is however equipped with a
system which switches all internal lights
off automatically;
do not keep accessories (e.g. radio,
hazard warning lights, etc.) switched on
for a long time when the engine is not
running;
before performing any operation on
the electrical system, disconnect the
negative battery cable.
If, after purchasing the vehicle, you wish
to install electrical accessories which
require permanent electrical supply (e.g.
alarm, etc.) or accessories which
influence the electrical supply
requirements, contact a Fiat Dealership,
whose qualified staff will evaluate the
overall electrical consumption.
70)
IMPORTANT After the battery is
disconnected, the steering must be
initialised. The
warning light on the
instrument panel (or symbol on the
display) switches on to indicate this. To
carry out this procedure, simply turn the
steering wheel all the way from one end
to the other or drive in a straight line for
about a hundred metres.
IMPORTANT If the charge level remains
under 50% for a long time, the battery
is damaged by sulphation, reducing its
capacity and efficiency at start-up. The
battery is also more prone to the risk of
freezing (at temperatures as high as
-10°C). Refer to the "Vehicle inactivity"
paragraph in "Starting and driving"
chapter if the vehicle is left parked for a
long time.
WARNING
152) Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: gas and inflammable
vapours may be present, with the risk of
fire.
153) Be very careful when working in the
engine compartment when the engine is
hot: you may get burned. Do not get too
close to the radiator cooling fan: the
electric fan may start; danger of injury.
Scarves, ties and other loose clothing
might be pulled by moving parts.
154) If the engine oil is being topped up,
wait for the engine to cool down before
loosening the filler cap, particularly for
vehicles with aluminium cap (where
provided). WARNING: risk of burns!
155) The cooling system is pressurised. If
the cap needs replacing, do so with
another original or the effectiveness of the
system may be compromised. Do not
remove the reservoir plug when the engine
is hot: you risk scalding yourself.
156) Do not travel if the windscreen
washer reservoir is empty: using the
windscreen washer is essential for
improving visibility. Repeated operation of
the system without fluid could damage or
cause rapid deterioration of some system
components.
157) Some commercial additives for
windscreen washer fluid are flammable.
The engine compartment contains hot
components which may start a fire.
158) Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
corrosive. In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the affected
parts with water and mild soap. Then rinse
thoroughly. Call a doctor immediately if
swallowed.
159) The symbol
, on the brake fluid
container indicates if a brake fluid is
synthetic or mineral-based. Use of mineral
type fluids will damage the special rubber
seals of the braking system beyond repair.
160) Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin and
eyes. Keep open flames away from the
battery and do not use objects that might
create sparks: risk of explosion and fire.
161) Using the battery with insufficient fluid
irreparably damages the battery and may
cause an explosion.
176
SERVICING AND CARE

162) When performing any operation on
the battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with special goggles.
IMPORTANT
64) Be careful not to confuse the various
types of fluids while topping up: they are
not compatible with each other! Topping up
with an unsuitable fluid could severely
damage your vehicle.
65) The oil level must never exceed the
MAX. mark.
66) Always top up using engine oil of the
same specifications as that already in the
engine.
67) PARAFLU
UP
anti-freeze is used in the
engine cooling system. Use fluid of the
same type as that contained in the cooling
system for any top-ups. PARAFLU
UP
cannot be mixed with any other type of
fluid. If this happens, do not start the
engine under any circumstances and
contact a Fiat Dealership.
68) Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
69) 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.
70) Incorrect installation of electric and
electronic devices may cause severe
damage to your car. After purchasing your
vehicle, if you wish to install any
accessories (e.g. anti-theft, radio phone,
etc.), go to a Fiat Dealership, which will
suggest the most suitable devices and
advise you whether a higher capacity
battery needs to be installed.
IMPORTANT
3) The used engine oil and the filter that has
been replaced contain substances that are
harmful to the environment. To change the
oil and filters, we advise you to contact a
Fiat Dealership.
4) Batteries contain substances which are
very dangerous for the environment. For
battery replacement, contact a Fiat
Dealership.

See the "Scheduled servicing plan" for
the correct servicing intervals.
It is advisable to replace it with a
genuine spare part, specifically
designed for this vehicle.
AIR CONDITIONING
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
75) 76)
To ensure the best possible
performance, the air conditioning
system must be checked and undergo
maintenance at a Fiat Dealership at the
beginning of the summer.
WINDSCREEN / REAR
WINDOW WIPERS
164)
Periodically clean the windscreen and
rear window and rubber profile of the
windscreen/rear window wiper blades,
using a sponge or a soft cloth and a
non-abrasive detergent. This eliminates
the salt or impurities accumulated when
driving.
Prolonged operation of the windscreen
window wipers with dry glass may
cause the deterioration of the blades, in
addition to abrasion of the surface of
the glass. To eliminate the impurities on
the dry glass, always operate the
windscreen/rear window washers.
In the case of very low outdoor
temperatures (below 0 °C), ensure that
the movement of the rubber part in
contact with the glass is not
obstructed, before activating the
windscreen/rear window wiper. Use a
suitable deicing product to release it if
required.
Do not use the windscreen wipers to
remove frost or ice.
Also avoid contact of the rubber profile
of the blades with petroleum derivatives
such as engine oil, petrol, etc.
IMPORTANT The envisaged life of the
windscreen and rear window wiper
blades varies according to the usage
frequency. In any case, it is advisable to
replace the blades approximately once
a year. When the blades are worn,
noise, marks on the glass or streaks of
water may be noticed. In the presence
of these conditions, clean the wiper
blades or, if necessary, replace them.
IMPORTANT Driving with worn
windscreen/rear window wiper blades
is a serious hazard, because visibility is
reduced in bad weather.
Raising the windscreen wiper
blades ("Service position" function)
The "Service position" function allows
the driver to replace the windscreen
wiper blades more easily, protecting
them from snow.
Function activation
To activate this function disable the
windscreen wiper (ring nut 1 fig. 203 in
position ) before setting the ignition
device to STOP.
This function can only be activated
within 2 minutes of setting the ignition
device to STOP.
To activate this function, move the lever
upwards (unstable position) for at least
half a second.
Each time the function is activated
correctly, the wiper blades move to
signal the correct reception of the
command.
203
P2000063-000-000
179

The command can be repeated up to a
maximum of the three times. The fourth
repetition of the command deactivates
the function.
If, after using the function, the ignition
device is set back to MAR with the
blades in a position other than rest
position (at the base of the windscreen),
they will only return to rest position
following a command given using the
stalk (stalk upwards, into unstable
position) or when a speed of 5 km/h is
exceeded.
Function deactivation
The function is deactivated if:
2 minutes have passed since the
ignition device was set to STOP;
the ignition device is set to MAR and
the blades are in rest position;
the command for the function is
repeated four times.
Replacing the windscreen wiper
blades
Proceed as follows:
raise the wiper arm, press button 1
fig. 204 of the attachment spring and
remove the blade from the arm;
fit the new blade, inserting the tab in
the dedicated housing in the arm and
checking that it is locked;
lower the wiper arm onto the
windscreen.
IMPORTANT Do not operate the
windscreen wiper with the blades lifted
from the windscreen.
Replacing the rear window wiper
blade
Proceed as follows:
widen the two tabs as shown by the
arrows and rotate cover 1
fig. 205 outwards;
undo nut 2 and remove arm 3 from
the central pin;
correctly align the new arm;
fully tighten nut 2 and then reclose
cover 1.
Windscreen/rear window washer
The window washer nozzles are fixed
fig. 206 and fig. 207. If there is no jet of
fluid, firstly check that there is fluid in
the reservoir (see paragraph “Engine
compartment” in this chapter). Only use
the prescribed fluid; do not use only
water.

SERVICING AND CARE

Then check that the nozzle holes are
not clogged; use a needle to unblock
them if necessary.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
165) 166)
77)
Adequate maintenance of the engine
exhaust system represents the best
protection against leaks of carbon
monoxide into the passenger
compartment.
WARNING
163) The air intake system (air cleaner,
rubber hoses, etc.) can be a protection in
the case of blowbacks from the engine. DO
NOT REMOVE this system unless you
need to carry out repair or servicing
operations. Before starting the engine,
ensure that the system has not been
removed: failure to observe this precaution
may result in serious injury.
164) Driving with worn windscreen/rear
window wiper blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.
165) Exhaust emissions are very
dangerous, and may be lethal. They
contain carbon monoxide, a colourless,
odourless gas which can cause fainting
and poisoning if inhaled.
166) The exhaust system may reach high
temperatures and may cause a fire if the
vehicle is parked on flammable material.
Dry grass or leaves can also catch fire if
they come into contact with the exhaust
system. Do not park or use the vehicle in a
place in which the exhaust system might
come into contact with flammable material.
IMPORTANT
71) It is recommended to have the vehicle
serviced by a Fiat Dealership. When
carrying out normal periodic operations and
small servicing interventions personally on
the vehicle, it is recommended to use
suitable equipment, genuine spare parts
and the necessary fluids. Do not carry out
any interventions if you don't have the
necessary experience.
72) Incorrect servicing of the vehicle or
failure to carry out operations or repairs
(when necessary) may lead to more
expensive repairs, damage to other
components or have a negative impact on
the vehicle performance. Have any
malfunction inspected immediately by a Fiat
Dealership.
73) The vehicle is equipped with fluids
which are optimised or protecting its
performance and life and extending service
intervals. Do not use chemicals for washing
these components since they may damage
the engine, the gearbox or the climate
control system. This damage is not covered
by the vehicle’s warranty. If any component
needs to be washed due to malfunctioning,
use only the specific liquid for that
procedure.
74) An excessive or insufficient amount of
oil inside the base is extremely damaging to
the engine. Make sure it is always at an
adequate level.
207
P1030145-000-000
181

75) Always require the use of only
compressor coolants and lubricants
approved and suitable for the specific air
conditioning system fitted on the vehicle.
Some non-approved coolants are
flammable and may explode, with the risk
of injuries. The use of non-approved
coolants or lubricants may adversely affect
system efficiency, leading to expensive
repairs.
76) The air conditioner system contains
coolant under high pressure: to avoid
injuries to people or damage to the system,
any coolant addition or repair that requires
to disconnect the cables must be carried
out by a Fiat Dealership.
77) Vehicles equipped with catalytic
converter must be fuelled only with
unleaded petrol. Leaded petrol would
permanently damage the catalytic
converter and eliminate its ability to reduce
polluting emissions, seriously
compromising the engine performance,
which would be irreparably damaged. If the
engine does not work correctly, especially if
it starts irregularly or if there is a reduction
of its performance, immediately go to a Fiat
Dealership. Prolonged and faulty operation
of the engine may cause overheating of the
converter and, as a consequence, possible
damage to the converter and the vehicle.
LIFTING THE
VEHICLE
If the vehicle needs to be jacked up, go
to a Fiat Dealership, which is equipped
with shop jacks and jack arms.
The vehicle lifting points are marked on
the side panels with the
symbols
(see illustration in fig. 208 ).
WHEELS AND TYRES
167) 168) 169) 170) 171)
SNOW CHAINS
78)
205/55 R16 and 195/65 R15 tyres can
be fitted with 9 mm snow chains.
Important notes
The use of snow chains should be in
compliance with local regulations of
each country. In certain countries, tyres
marked with code M+S (Mud and
Snow) are considered as winter
equipment; therefore their use is
equivalent to that of the snow chains.
The snow chains may be applied only
to the front wheel tyres.
Check the tension of the snow chains
after the first few metres have been
driven.
IMPORTANT Using snow chains with
tyres with non-original dimensions may
damage the vehicle.
IMPORTANT Using different size or type
(M+S, snow, etc.) tyres between front
and rear axle may adversely affect
vehicle driveability, with the risk of losing
control of the vehicle and resulting
accidents.
208
P2000005-000-000
182
SERVICING AND CARE

WARNING
167) The road holding qualities of the car
also depend on the correct inflation
pressure of the tyres.
168) If tyre pressure is too low, it may
overheat and be severely damaged as a
result.
169) If the tyres are "unidirectional", do not
switch tyres from the right-hand side of the
vehicle to the left-hand side, and vice
versa. This type of tyres can only be
switched from the front axle to the rear axle
and vice versa, keeping them on the same
side of the vehicle.
170) Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C. The
mechanical properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
171) Travelling with partially or completely
deflated tyres can cause safety problems
and damage the concerned tyre beyond
repair.
IMPORTANT
78) Keep your speed down when snow
chains are fitted; do not exceed 50 km/h.
Avoid potholes, do not drive over steps or
sidewalks and do not drive long distances
over roads without snow, to avoid
damaging both your vehicle and the road
surface.
BODY
PRESERVING THE
BODYWORK
Paint
79)
5)
Touch up abrasions and scratches
immediately to prevent the formation of
rust.
Maintenance of paintwork consists of
washing the car: the frequency
depends on the conditions and
environment where the car is used. For
example, it is advisable to wash the
vehicle more often in areas with high
levels of atmospheric pollution or salted
roads.
Some parts of the vehicle may be
covered with a matt paint which, in
order to be maintained intact, requires
special care: see the instructions in the
warning at the end of this paragraph
80)
To correctly wash the vehicle, follow
these instructions:
if the vehicle is washed remove the
aerial from the roof;
if high pressure jets or cleaners are
used to wash the vehicle, keep a
distance of at least 40 cm from the
bodywork to avoid damage or
alteration. Build up of water could
cause damage to the vehicle in the long
term;
wash the bodywork using a low
pressure jet of water if possible;
wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy
solution over the bodywork, frequently
rinsing the sponge;
rinse well with water and dry with a
jet of air or a chamois leather.
Dry the less visible parts (e.g. door
frames, bonnet, headlight frames, etc.)
with special care, as water may
stagnate more easily in these areas. Do
not wash the car after it has been left in
the sun or with the bonnet hot: this may
alter the shine of the paintwork.
Exterior plastic parts must be cleaned
in the same way as the rest of the
vehicle.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Avoid parking under trees; the resin
dropped by trees makes the paintwork
go opaque and increases the possibility
of corrosion.
Bird droppings must be washed off
immediately and thoroughly as the acid
they contain is particularly aggressive.
183

Windows
Use specific detergents and clean
cloths to prevent scratching or altering
the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window
inside gently with a cloth following the
direction of the filaments to avoid
damaging the heating device.
Front headlights
Use a soft cloth soaked in water and
detergent for washing cars.
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic
substances (e.g. petrol) or ketones (e.g.
acetone) for cleaning the plastic lenses
of the headlights.
IMPORTANT When cleaning with a
pressure washer, keep the water jet at
least 20 cm away from the headlights.
Engine compartment
At the end of every winter, wash the
engine compartment thoroughly, taking
care not to aim the jet of water directly
at the electronic control units or at the
windscreen wiper motors. Have this
operation performed at a specialised
workshop.
IMPORTANT The washing should take
place with the engine cold and the
ignition device in the STOP position.
After the washing operation, make sure
that the various protections (e.g. rubber
caps and guards) have not been
removed or damaged.
IMPORTANT
79) In order to preserve the aesthetic
appearance of the paint abrasive products
and/or polishes should not be used for
cleaning the vehicle.
80) Avoid washing with rollers and/or
brushes in washing stations. Wash the
vehicle only by hand using neutral pH
detergents; dry it with a wet chamois
leather. Abrasive products and/or polishes
should not be used for cleaning the car.
Bird droppings must be washed off
immediately and thoroughly as the acid
they contain is particularly aggressive.
Avoid (if at all possible) parking the vehicle
under trees; remove vegetable resins
immediately as, when dried, it may only be
possible to remove them with abrasive
products and/or polishes, which is highly
inadvisable as they could alter the typical
opaqueness of the paint. Do not use pure
windscreen washer fluid for cleaning the
front windscreen and rear window; dilute it
min. 50% with water. Only use pure screen
washer fluid when strictly necessary due to
outside temperature conditions.
IMPORTANT
5) Detergents pollute the environment. Only
wash your vehicle in areas equipped to
collect and treat wastewater from this type
of activity.

vacuum cleaner. It is advisable to use a
moist brush on when cleaning
non-fabric upholstery. Rub the seats
with a sponge moistened with a
solution of water and neutral detergent.
LEATHER SEATS
(where provided)
Remove the dry dirt with a chamois or
slightly damp cloth, without exerting too
much pressure.
Remove any liquid or grease stains
using an absorbent dry cloth, without
rubbing. Then clean with a soft cloth or
buckskin cloth dampened with water
and mild soap. If the stain persists, use
specific products and observe the
instructions carefully.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol. Make
sure that the cleaning products used
contain no alcohol or alcohol
derivatives, even in small quantities.
PLASTIC AND COATED
PARTS
81)
Clean interior plastic parts with a damp
cloth (if possible made from microfibre),
and a solution of water and neutral,
non-abrasive detergent.
To clean oily or persistent stains, use
specific products free from solvents and
designed to maintain the original
appearance and colour of the
components.
Remove any dust using a microfibre
cloth, if necessary moistened with
water. The use of paper tissues is not
recommended as these may leave
residues.
GENUINE LEATHER
PARTS
(where provided)
Use only water and mild soap to clean
these parts. Never use alcohol or
alcohol-based products.
Before using a specific product for
cleaning interiors, make sure that it
does not contain alcohol and/or alcohol
based substances.
WARNING
172) Never use flammable products, such
as petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean
the inside of the car. The electrostatic
charges which are generated by rubbing
during the cleaning operation may cause a
fire.
173) Do not keep aerosol cans in the car:
they might explode. Aerosol cans must not
be exposed to a temperature exceeding
50°C. When the vehicle is exposed to
sunlight, the internal temperature can
greatly exceed this value.
174) There must be no obstacles on the
floor underneath the pedals; make sure
that mats are always flat and do not
interfere with the pedals.
IMPORTANT
81) Never use alcohol, petrols and

WHEELS
SNOW TYRES
176)
Use snow tyres of the same size as the
standard tyres provided with the car.
The Fiat Dealership will be happy to
provide advice concerning the most
suitable type of tyre for the customer's
requirements.
For the type of snow tyre to be used,
inflation pressures and the
specifications of the tyres, carefully
follow the instructions given in this
chapter.
The winter features of these tyres are
reduced considerably when the tread
depth is below 4 mm. Replace them in
this case.
Due to the specific characteristics of
snow tyres, in normal weather
conditions or on long motorway
journeys, the performance of these
tyres is lower than that of standard
tyres.
Their usage should therefore be
restricted in accordance with their
type-approval; always comply with
specific local regulations relating to the
use of snow tyres.
All four tyres should be the same (brand
and track) to ensure greater safety
when driving and braking as well as a
good manoeuvrability. Remember that
you should not change the rotation
direction of the tyres.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests laid down by
specific European Directives.
The following procedures are used to measure the fuel consumption:
urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the vehicle;
extra-urban cycle: followed by driving simulating extra-urban use of the car with frequent accelerating in all gears, speed
varies between 0 and 120 km/h;
combined fuel consumption: calculated with a weighting of approximately 37% of the urban cycle and 63% of the
extra-urban cycle.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic conditions, weather conditions, driving style, general condition of the car, trim
level/equipment/accessories, use of the climate control system, car load, presence of roof racks and other situations that
adversely affect the aerodynamics or wind resistance lead to different fuel consumption values than those measured.
IMPORTANT The fuel consumption will get more regular only after having driven the first 3000 km.

PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE VEHICLE AT THE END OF ITS
LIFE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
FCA has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its production
processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly "eco-compatible". To grant customers the best possible service in
terms of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Directive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of
their life, FCA is offering its customers the chance to hand over their car at the end of its life without incurring any additional
costs. The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over, the last keeper or owner should not incur any
expenses as a result of it having a zero or negative market value.
To hand your 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.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from an FCA dealership or by calling the
number in the Warranty Booklet or by consulting the websites of the various FCA brands.

AND GENERAL
INFORMATION
ROAD SAFETY
Learn how to use the various system
functions before setting off.
Read the instructions for the system
carefully before setting off.
178) 179)
RECEPTION CONDITIONS
Reception conditions change
constantly while driving. Reception may
be interfered with by the presence of
mountains, buildings or bridges,
especially when you are far away from
the broadcaster.
IMPORTANT The volume may be
increased when receiving traffic
information and news.
CARE AND
MAINTENANCE
Observe the following precautions to
ensure the system is fully operational:
the display lens should not come into
contact with pointed or rigid objects
which could damage its surface; use a
soft, dry anti-static cloth to clean and
do not press.
never use alcohol, petrols and
derivatives to clean the display lens.
prevent any liquid from entering the
system: this could damage it beyond
repair.
83) 84)
ANTITHEFT PROTECTION
The system is equipped with an
anti-theft protection system based on
the exchange of information with the
electronic control unit (Body Computer)
on the vehicle.
This guarantees maximum safety and
prevents the secret code from being
entered after the power supply has
been disconnected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the
system will start to operate, whereas if
the comparison codes are not the same
or if the electronic control unit (Body
Computer) is replaced, the system will
ask the user to enter the secret code
according to the procedure described
in the paragraph below.
Entering the secret code
When the system is switched on, if the
code is requested, the display will show
"Please enter Anti-Theft Code" followed
by the screen showing a keypad to
enter the secret code.
The secret code is made up of four
digits from 0 to 9.
Uconnect™ 3" Radio:
To enter the first digit of the code,
turn the "BROWSE/ENTER" right knob
and press to confirm.
After inserting the fourth digit, move
the cursor to "OK" and press the
"BROWSE ENTER" right knob: the
system will start to operate.
Uconnect™ 5" LIVE and
Uconnect™ 5" Nav LIVE:
Use the graphic buttons on the
display to enter the code digits.
If an incorrect code is entered, the
system displays "Incorrect Code" to
notify the user of the need to enter the
correct code.
After the 3 available attempts to enter
the code, the system displays
"Incorrect Code. Radio locked. Wait for
30 minutes". After the text has
disappeared it is possible to start the
code entering procedure again.
Vehicle radio passport
This document certifies ownership of
the system. The vehicle radio passport
shows the system model, serial number
and secret code.
In case of loss of the car radio
passport, contact the Fiat Dealership,
taking an ID document and the car
ownership documents.
211

IMPORTANT Keep the vehicle radio
passport in a safe place so that you
can give the information to the relevant
authorities if the system is stolen.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Look at the screen only and when it is
necessary and safe. If you need to look
at the screen for a long time, pull over
to a safe place so as not to be
distracted while driving.
Immediately stop using the system in
the event of a fault. Otherwise the
system might be damaged. Contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to
have the system repaired.
WARNING
178) Follow the safety rules here below:
otherwise serious injuries may occur to the
occupants or the system may be
damaged.
179) If the volume is too loud this can be
dangerous. Adjust the volume so that you
can still hear background noises (e.g.
horns, ambulances, police vehicles, etc.).
IMPORTANT
83) Only clean the front panel and the
display lens with a soft, clean, dry,
anti-static cloth. Cleaning and polishing
products may damage the surface. Never
use alcohol, petrols and derivatives.
84) Do not use the display as a base for
supports with suction pads or adhesives for
external navigators or smartphones or
similar devices.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
WARNING
INTERIOR FITTINGS
Do not travel with the storage compartment open: it may injure the front seat occupants in the event of an accident.
The cigar lighter gets extremely hot. Handle it carefully and make sure that children don’t use it: risk of fire and/or burns.
Do not use the ashtray as a waste paper basket: it may catch fire in contact with cigarette stubs.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION SYSTEMS
The catalytic converter and particulate filter (DPF) reach very high temperatures during operation. Therefore do not park the
vehicle on flammable materials (e.g. grass, dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire hazard.
POWER SUPPLY
Modifications or repairs to the supply system that are not carried out correctly or do not take the system technical
specifications into account can cause malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
WHEELS
DO NOT fit wheel hub caps when using integral hub caps fixed (with springs) to the steel rim and after sale tyres provided
with Rim Protector. Use of unsuitable tyres and wheel caps may cause sudden decrease of tyre pressure.
