you are drinking, do not drive. Ride with a designated
non-drinking driver, call a cab, a friend, or use public
transportation.
WARNING!
Driving after drinking can lead to an accident.
Your perceptions are less sharp, your reexes are
slower, and your judgment is impaired when you
have been drinking. Never drink and then drive.

REFUELING
Only refuel with unleaded gasoline
with a recommended rating of 91
oc
tane. A rating less than 87
octane is not acceptable. Do not
use gasoline containing methanol or ethanol
E85. Using these mixtures may cause
misfiring and handling issues, as well as
damage fundamental components of the fuel
supply system.
READ THIS CAREFULLY
STARTING THE ENGINE
If equipped with a manual transmis-
sion: Be sure that the parking brake
i
s engaged; place the gear selector
in NEUTRAL, fully depress the
clutch pedal without pressing the acceler
ator, and then push the ignition button. The
en
gine will start as soon as the ignition is
pushed.
If equipped with an automatic transmission: B
sure that the parking brake is engaged and
that the gear selector is in PARK (P) or
NEUTRAL (N), depress the brake pedal, and
then push the ignition button. The engine
will start as soon as the ignition is pushed.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE

high temperatures during operation. Do not park the vehicle on
p
tential fire hazards such as:
o
grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flam
mable materials.
RESPECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is equipped with a
system that carries out a continuous diagnosis of the emission-related components in order to
h
lp protect the environment.

ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
Contact an authorized dealer if you
decide to add electrical accessories
(w
ith the risk of gradually draining
the battery) after buying the
vehicle. They can calculate the overall elec
trical requirement and check that the
-
ve
hicle's electric system can support the
required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance of the vehicle
is essential for ensuring that it
ma
intains its performance and its
safety features, its environmental
friendliness and low running costs are
unchanged over time.

ESSENTIAL INFORMATION
Each time directions (left/right or forward/backwards) are listed, they are determined by facing
fo
rward from the rear of the vehicle or as from
the point of view of being seated inside the car.
Special cases not complying with this rule will
be properly specified in the text.
The figures in the Owner’s Manual are
pr
ovided 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 Owner’s Manual has
been conceived considering vehicles with a
steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore
possible that on vehicles with a steering
wheel on the right side, the position of some
controls or elements is not exactly mirror-like
with respect to the figure.
To identify the chapter with the information
ne
eded you can consult the Index at the end
of this Owner’s Manual.
Chapters can be rapidly identified by graphic
bs, at the side of each odd page. A key
ta
showing the order of the chapters and the
corresponding tab symbols appears on
another page.
SYMBOLS
While reading this Owner’s Manual you will
find a series of WARNINGS that must be care-
fully followed to prevent incorrect use of the
c
mponents of the vehicle, which could
o
cause accidents or injuries.
There are also CA
fully followed to prevent procedures that
co
uld damage your vehicle.
Therefore, all WA
always be carefully followed.

load required, or whether it needs to be inte
grated with a more powerful battery.
NOTE:
Use only floor mats that leave the pedal area
u
obstructed and that are firmly secured so

RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND MOBILE
PHONES
Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile
phones, CB radios, amateur radio etc.)
cannot be used inside the vehicle unless a
separate aerial is mounted externally.
Transmission and reception of these devices
ma
y be affected by the shielding effect of the
vehicle body. As far as the use of
EC-approved mobile phones is concerned
(GSM, GPRS, UMTS, LTE), follow the usage
instructions provided by the mobile phone
manufacturer.
The use of these devices inside the vehicle
ithout an external aerial) may cause the
(w
electrical systems to malfunction. This could
compromise the vehicle safety in addition to
constituting a potential hazard for passen
gers' health.
If mobile phones/laptops/smartphones/
t
blets are inside the vehicle and/or close to
a
the electronic key, a reduced performance of
the Advanced Keyless Entry System may
occur.
CELL PHONE WARNING

NOTE:
Changes or modifications not approved by
t
e party responsible for compliance could
h
void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
The Advanced Keyless Entry System oper-
ational range may vary due to local
we
ather conditions.
The Advanced Keyless Entry System is
fully operational (door/trunk lid/fuel filler
door lock/unlock) when the ignition is
placed in the OFF position. The Advanced
Keyless Entry System does not operate if
the ignition is placed in any position other
than the OFF position.
If the key fob does not operate when
pushing a button, the operational range
becomes too small, or the warning light
does not illuminate or flash, the battery
may be weak or discharged. To install a
new battery, refer to “Keys” in this chapter
for further information.
Battery life is about one year. Replace the
battery with a new one if the key indicator
light (green) flashes in the instrument
cluster. Replacing the battery about once
a year is recommended because the key
indicator light may not illuminate or flash
if the battery is low or depleted.
Additional key fobs may be obtained at an
authorized dealer. Up to six key fobs may
be used with the Advanced Keyless Entry
System per vehicle. Bring all key fobs to
an authorized dealer when additional keys
are required.
The Advanced Keyless Entry function allows
u to lock/unlock the door, trunk lid, and
yo
fuel filler door, or open the trunk lid while
carrying the key fob.
WARNING!
Radio waves from the key fob may affect
medical devices such as pacemakers:
before using the key fob near people who
use medical devices, ask the medical
device manufacturer or your physician if
radio waves from the key fob will affect the
device.
NOTE:
The Advanced Keyless Entry System functions can be deactivated to prevent any
po
ssible adverse effect on a user wearing a
pacemaker or other medical device. If the
system is deactivated, you will be unable to
start the engine by carrying the key fob.
Contact an authorized dealer for details. If
the Advanced Keyless Entry System has
been deactivated, you can start the engine by
following the procedure indicated when the
key fob battery becomes discharged.

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
Modifications And Add-On Equipment
FCA cannot guarantee the immobilizer and
security alarm system operation if the system
has been modified or if any add-on equip
ment has been installed.
NOTE:
To avoid damage to the vehicle, do not
mo
dify the system or install any add-on
equipment to the immobilizer, the security
alarm system, or the vehicle.
Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system allows the engine to
start only with a recognized key fob.
If someone attempts to start the engine with
an
unrecognized key fob, the engine will not
start, preventing unlawful vehicle use.
If you have a problem with the immobilizer
stem or the key fob, contact an authorized
sy
dealer.
To avoid damage to the key fob, DO NOT:
Drop the key fob
Get the key fob wet
Expose the key fob to any kind of magnetic
field
Expose the key fob to high temperatures
such as direct sunlight
NOTE:
Changes or modifications not expressly
-
approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority
to operate the equipment.
If the engine does not start with the
correct key fob, and the warning light
keeps illuminating or flashing, the system
23
may have a malfunction. Contact an
authorized dealer.
The key fobs carry a unique electronic
code. For this reason, and to assure your
safety, obtaining a replacement key fob
can only be done through an authorized
dealer, and will require some waiting time.
Always keep a spare key fob in case one is
lost. If a key fob is lost, contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
If you lose a key fob, an authorized dealer
will reset the electronic codes of your
remaining key fobs and immobilizer
system. Bring all the remaining key fobs to
an authorized dealer to reset. Starting the
vehicle with a key fob that has not been
reset is not possible.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Operation
The engine may not start and warning
light may illuminate or flash if the key fob is
pl
aced in an area difficult for the system to
detect the signal, such as on the instrument
panel. Move the key fob to a location within
the signal range, place the ignition in the
OFF position, and restart the engine.
24
NOTE:
Signals from a TV, radio station, transceiver,
or
mobile telephone could interfere with your
immobilizer system. If you are using the
proper key fob and the engine fails to start,
check the
warning light.
Arming
The system is armed when the ignition is
cy
cled from the ON to OFF position. The
warning light in the instrument cluster
flashes every two seconds until the system is
disarmed.
Disarming
The system is disarmed when the ignition is
aced in the ON position with the correct
pl
programmed key fob. The
warning light
illuminates for about three seconds and then
rns off. If the engine does not start with the
tu
correct key fob, and the
warning light
remains illuminated or flashing, try the
llowing:
fo
Make sure the key fob is within the opera-
tional range for signal transmission.
Place the ignition in the OFF position, and
then restart the engine. If the engine does
not start after three or more tries, contact
an authorized dealer.
NOTE:
If the warning light flashes continu-
ously while you are driving, do not turn the
en
gine off. Contact an authorized dealer
and have it checked. If the engine is shut
off while the
warning light is flashing,
it will not be able to be restarted.
Because the electronic codes are reset
when the immobilizer system is repaired,
the keys are needed. Make sure to bring all
the key fobs to an authorized dealer so
that they can be programmed.
Vehicle Security Alarm System — If
