FIATFULLBACK

Dear Customer

We would like to congratulate and thank you for choosing Fiat Fullback.
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 the technical features of your Fiat Fullback.

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 Fiat Fullback 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

Only refuel with automotive diesel 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.

STARTING THE ENGINE

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-ON and wait for the warning lights

and to switch off; turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as

the engine has started.

PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL

The catalytic converter develops high temperatures during operation. Do not park on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flammable
material: fire hazard.

RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

The vehicle is fitted with a system that allows 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), visit a Fiat Dealership. They
can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the vehicle's electrical system can support the required load.

SCHEDULED SERVICING

Correct maintenance enables the vehicle to perfectly maintain performance and safety characteristics, its environmental friendliness and low
running costs over time.

USE OF THE OWNER HANDBOOK

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Each time direction instructions (left/right or forwards/backwards) about the vehicle are given, these must be intended as
regarding an occupant in the driver's seat. Special cases not complying with this rule will be properly specified 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, some controls
position or construction 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 anyway a textual indication of the current
chapter at the side of each even page.

Abbreviations used in this Owner Handbook:
LHD— Left-Hand Drive
RHD— Right-Hand Drive
M/T— Manual Transmission
A/T— Automatic Transmission

This manual explains operation of LHD ans RHD vehicles. Illustrations represent LHD operation. Depending on the item,
however, RHD illustrations may also appear.

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.

ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER

If after buying the vehicle, you decide to install electrical accessories that require a permanent electrical supply (e.g. radio,
satellite anti-theft system, etc.) or accessories that in any case burden the electrical supply, contact a Fiat Dealership, whose
personnel will check whether the vehicles's electrical system is able to withstand the load required, or whether it needs to be
integrated with a more powerful battery.

IMPORTANT Take care when fitting additional spoilers, alloy wheels or non-standard wheel hubs: they could reduce the
ventilation of the brakes and affect efficiency under sharp, repeated braking or on long descents. Make sure that nothing
obstructs the pedal stroke (mats, etc.).

INSTALLING ELECTRICAL / ELECTRONIC DEVICES

Electrical and electronic devices installed after buying the vehicle in the context of after-sales service must carry the following
label

: FCA Italy S.p.A. authorises the installation of transceivers provided that installation is carried out at a specialised

centre, in a workmanlike fashion and in compliance with manufacturer's specifications.
Traffic police may not allow the vehicle on the road if devices have been installed which modify the features of the vehicle. This

may also cause invalidation of warranty in relation to faults caused by the change either directly or indirectly related to it.
FCA Italy S.p.A. shall not be liable for damage caused by the installation of accessories either not supplied or recommended by

FCA Italy S.p.A. and not installed in compliance with the provided instructions.

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 may 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 passenger compartment (without
an external aerial) may cause the electrical systems to malfunction. This could compromise the safety of the vehicle in addition
to constituting a potential hazard for passengers' health. If mobile phones/laptops/smartphones/tablets are inside the vehicle
and/or close to the electronic key, a reduced performance of the Passive Entry/Keyless Entry-N-Go system may occur.

INSTALLATION OF ACCESSORIES

Before fitting any accessories, please consult your authorised Fiat Dealership.

5

IMPORTANT Your vehicle is equipped with a diagnosis connector for checking and servicing the electronic control system. Do
not connect a device other than a diagnosis tool for inspections and service to this connector. Otherwise, the battery could be
discharged, the electronic devices of the vehicle could malfunction, or other unexpected problems could result. In addition,
malfunctions caused by connecting a device other than a diagnosis tool may not be covered under warranty.

The installation of accessories, optional parts, etc., should only be carried out within the limits prescribed by law in your country,
and in accordance with the guidelines and warnings contained within the documents accompanying this vehicle. Only FCA Italy
S.p.A. approved accessories should be fitted to your vehicle.

Improper installation of electrical parts could cause fire, please refer to the Modification/ alteration to the electrical or fuel
systems section within this owner’s manual.

Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the vehicle without an external antenna may cause electrical system interference,
which could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.

Tyres and wheels which do not meet specifications must not be used. Refer to the “Specifications” section for information
regarding wheel and tyre sizes.

Do not fail to read the accessories manuals prior to the installation of accessories, parts or other modifications to the vehicle!

IMPORTANT POINTS!

Due to a large number of accessories and replacement parts of different manufactures available in the market, it is not possible,
not only for FCA Italy S.p.A. but also an authorised Fiat Dealership, to check whether the attachment or installation of such
parts affects the overall safety of your vehicle.

Even when such parts are officially authorised, for example by a “general operators permit” (an appraisal for the part) or through
the execution of the part in an officially approved manner of construction, or when a single operation permit following the
attachment or installation of such parts, it cannot be deduced from that alone, that the driving safety of your vehicles has not
been affected.

Consider also that there basically exists no liability on the part of the appraiser or the official. Maximum safety can only be
ensured with parts recommended, sold and fitted or installed by an authorised Fiat Dealership (replacement with original FCA
Italy S.p.A. spare parts). The same also pertains to modifications of vehicles with respect to the production specifications. For
safety reasons, do not attempt any modifications other than those that follow the recommendations of an authorised Fiat
Dealership.

WARNING

1) When carrying a key on flights, do not

press any switches on the key while on the
plane. If a switch is pressed on the plane,
the key emits electromagnetic waves,
which could adversely affect the plane’s
flight operation. When carrying a key in a
bag, be careful that no switches on the key
can be easily pressed by mistake.

2) Don’t make any alterations or additions
to the immobilizer system; alterations or
additions could cause failure of the
immobilizer.

3) When the key case is opened, be careful
to keep water, dust, etc. out. Also, do not
touch the internal components.

4) People with implantable cardiac
pacemakers or implantable cardiovascular­defibrillators should not go near the exterior
transmitters (A) or the interior transmitters
(B). The radio waves used by the keyless
operation system could adversely affect
implantable cardiac pacemakers or
implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators.

23

5) When using electro-medical devices
other than implantable cardiac pacemakers
or implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators,
contact the electro-medical device
manufacturer ahead of time to determine
the adverse effects of radio waves on the
devices. Electro-medical device operations
could be affected by radio waves.

IMPORTANT

1) Used batteries are harmful to the

environment. You can dispose of them
either in the correct containers as specified
by law or by taking them to a Fiat
Dealership, which will deal with their
disposal.

seat cushions.

Securely retain the seat cushion by
hooking the retaining band (A) onto the
head restraint (B) of the rear seat.

Armrest (Double cab)

To use the armrest, fold it down.
To return to the original position, push it

backward (into the seatback) until it is
flush with the seat. (Double cab).

NOTE Do not climb or sit on the
armrest. Doing so could damage the
armrest.

NOTE The top surface of the armrest
contains a cup holder for rear seat
occupants. Refer to “Cup holder”.

WARNING

32) All adjustments must be made with the

vehicle stationary.

33) Do not attempt to adjust the seat while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle
control and result in an accident. After
adjustments are made, ensure the seating
is locked in position by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without
using the adjusting mechanism.

34) After releasing the adjustment lever,
always check that the seat is locked on the
guides by trying to move it back and forth.
If it is not locked, the seat may move
unexpectedly and make you lose control of
the vehicle.

35) For maximum safety, keep the back of
your seat upright, lean back into it and
make sure the seat belt fits closely across
your chest and pelvis.

36) 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.

37) It is extremely dangerous to ride in the
cargo area of a vehicle. Also, the cargo
area and rear seats should never be used
as a play area by children. In a collision,
people or children riding unrestrained in
these areas are more likely to be seriously
injured or killed.

38) Do not allow people or children to ride
in any area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts, and
make sure that everyone travelling in your
vehicle is in a seat and wearing a seat belt,
or in the case of a child is strapped in a
child restraint.

39) To minimize the risk of personal injury in
the event of a collision or sudden braking,
the seatbacks should always be in the
almost upright position while the vehicle is
in motion. The protection provided by the
seat belts may be reduced significantly
when the seatback is reclined. There is
greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the seat belt, resulting in serious
injury, when the seatback is reclined.

40) Do not place objects under the seats.
This could prevent the seat from locking
securely, and it could lead to an accident. It
may also cause damage to the seat or
other parts.

41) Make sure the seat is adjusted by an
adult or with adult supervision for correct
and safe operation.

42) Do not place a cushion or the like
between your back and the seatback while
driving. The effectiveness of the head
restraints will be reduced in the event of an
accident.

48

AHA105121

49

AHA103000

43) The reclining mechanism of the front
manual seat's seatback is spring loaded,
causing it to fold the seatback forward
when the lock lever is operated. When
using the lever, sit close to the seatback or
hold it with your hand to control its return
motion.

44) When sliding the seats, be careful not
to catch your hand or foot.

45) If your vehicle is equipped with the rear
seat, when sliding or reclining the seat
rearward, pay careful attention to the rear
seat passengers.

46) If the following types of persons use
the heated seats, they might become too
hot or receive minor burns (red skin, heat
blisters, etc.): children, elderly or ill people,
people with sensitive skin, excessively tired
people, people under the influence of
alcohol or sleep inducing medication (cold
medicine, etc.).

IMPORTANT

10) 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
prolonged and/or excessive rubbing
against clothing accessories such as metal
buckles and Velcro strips which, by
applying a high pressure on the fabric in a
small area, could cause it to break, thereby
damaging the upholstery.

11) Operate in the “HI” position for quick
heating. Once the seat is warm, set the
heater switch to the “LO” position to keep it
warm. Slight variations in seat temperature
may be felt while using the heated seats.
This is caused by the operation of the
heater’s internal thermostat and does not
indicate a malfunction.

12) Do not place heavy objects on the seat
or stick pins, needles, or other pointed
objects into it.

13) Do not use a blanket, cushion, or other
material with high heat insulation properties
on the seat while using the heater; this
might cause the heater element to
overheat.

14) Do not use benzine, kerosene, petrol,
alcohol or other organic solvents when
cleaning the seats. Doing so could damage
not only the seat cover, but also the heater
element.

15) If water or any other liquid is spilled on
the seat, allow it to dry thoroughly before
attempting to use the heater.

16) Turn the heater off immediately if it
appears to be malfunctioning during use.

HEAD RESTRAINTS

47) 48) 49) 50) 51) 52)

NOTE The head restraint height of the
outer seat in the rear seat cannot be
adjusted.

Front seats

Adjust the head restraint height so that
the centre of the head restraint is as
close as possible to ear level to reduce
the chances of injury in the event of
collision. Any person too tall for the
head restraint to reach their seated ear
level, should adjust the restraint as high
as possible.

To raise the head restraint, move it
upward.

To lower the restraint, move it
downward while pushing the height
adjusting knob (A) in the direction of the
arrow. After adjustment, push the head
restraint downward and make sure that
it is locked.

WARNING

47) All adjustments must only be carried

out with the vehicle stationary and the
engine off. Head restraints must be
adjusted so that the head, rather than the
neck, rests on them. Only in this case can
they protect your head correctly. To take
best advantage of the protection provided
by the head restraint, adjust the seat back
so that you are sitting up straight and your
head is as close to the head restraint as
possible.

48) Driving without the head restraints in
place can cause you and your passengers
serious injury or death in an accident. To
reduce the risk of injury in an accident,
always make sure the head restraints are
installed and properly positioned when the
seat is occupied.

49) Never place a cushion or similar device
on the seatback. This can adversely affect
head restraint performance by increasing
the distance between your head and the
restraint.

50) When a person sits in the middle
seating position of the rear seat, pull up the
head restraint to a height at which it locks
in position. Be sure to make this
adjustment before starting to drive. Serious
injuries could otherwise be suffered in the
result of an impact (Double cab).

51) Make sure that the height adjusting
knob (A) is correctly adjusted as shown in
the illustration, and also lift the head
restraints to ensure that they do not come
out of the seatback.

52) The shape and size of the head
restraint differs according to the seat.
Always use the correct head restraint
provided for the seat and do not install the
head restraint in the wrong direction.

WARNING

56) As the driver's exterior mirror is curved,

it may slightly alter the perception of
distance of the reflected image. Further, the
reflective surface of the lower part of the
exterior mirrors is parabolic to increase the
field of view. The reflected image size is
thus reduced and gives the impression that
the reflected item is further away than it
actually is.

57) Do not attempt to adjust the rear view
mirrors while driving. This can be
dangerous. Always adjust the mirrors
before driving.

58) Your vehicle is equipped with convex
type mirrors. Remind that objects that you
see in the mirror will look smaller and
farther away compared to a normal flat
mirror. Do not use this mirror to estimate
distance of following vehicles when
changing lanes.

59) Do not drive the vehicle with the mirror
folded in. The lack of rearward visibility
normally provided by the mirror could lead
to an accident.

IMPORTANT

20) It is possible to retract and extend the

mirrors by hand. After retracting a mirror
using the mirror retractor switch, however,
you should extend it by using the switch
again, not by hand. If you extended the
mirror by hand after retracting it using the
switch, it would not properly lock in
position. As a result, it could move because
of the wind or vibration while you are
driving, taking away your rearward visibility.

Rain sensor

Can only be used when the ignition
switch or the operation mode is in ON.
If the lever is put in the “AUTO”
position, the rain sensor (A) will detect
the extent of rain (or snow, other
moisture, dust, etc.) and the wipers will
operate automatically. Keep the lever in
the “OFF” position if the windscreen is
dirty and the weather is dry. Wiper
operation under these conditions can
scratch the windscreen and damage
the wipers.

21)

NOTE To protect the rubber parts of
the wipers, this operation of the wipers
does not take place even if the lever is
put in the “AUTO” position when the
vehicle is stationary and the ambient
temperature is about 0 °C or lower.

NOTE Do not cover the sensor by
affixing a sticker or label to the
windscreen. Also, do not put any
water-repellent coating on the
windscreen. The rain sensor would not
be able to detect the extent of rain, and
the wipers might stop working normally.

In the following cases, the rain sensor
may be malfunctioning. For further
information, we recommend you to
consult a Fiat Dealership:

When the wipers operate at a
constant interval despite changes in the
extent of rain.

When the wipers do not operate
even though it is raining.

NOTE The wipers may automatically
operate when things such as insects or
foreign objects are affixed to the
windscreen on top of the rain sensor or
when the windscreen is frozen. Objects
affixed to the windscreen will stop the
wipers when the wipers cannot remove
them. To operate the wipers again,
move the lever in the “LO” or “HI”
position. Also, the wipers may operate
automatically due to strong direct
sunlight or electromagnetic wave. To
stop the wipers, place the lever in the
“OFF” position.

NOTE Contact a Fiat Dealership when
replacing the windscreen or reinforcing
the glass around the sensor.

To adjust the sensitivity of the rain
sensor

With the lever in the “AUTO” (rain
sensor) position, it is possible to adjust
the sensitivity of the rain sensor by
turning the knob (B).

Precautions to observe when using
wipers and washers

If the moving wipers become
blocked partway through a sweep by
ice or other deposits on the glass, the
wipers may temporarily stop operating
to prevent the motor from overheating.
In this case, park the vehicle in a safe
place, turn the ignition switch to the
“OFF” position or put the operation
mode in OFF, and then remove the ice
or other deposits. Because the wipers
will start operating again after the wiper
motor cools down, check that the
wipers operate before using them.

Do not use the wipers when the
glass is dry. They may scratch the glass
surface and the blades wear out
prematurely.

Before using the wipers in cold
weather, check that the wiper blades
are not frozen onto the glass. The
motor may burn out if the wipers are
used with the blades frozen onto the
glass.

Avoid using the washer continuously
for more than 20 seconds. Do not
operate the washer when the fluid
reservoir is empty. Otherwise, the motor
may burn out.

Periodically check the level of washer
fluid in the reservoir and refill if required.

During cold weather, add a
recommended washer solution that will
not freeze in the washer reservoir.
Failure to do so could result in loss of
washer function and frost damage to
the system components.

WARNING

63) Do not use the screen wiper to remove

layers of snow or ice from the windscreen.
In such conditions, the windscreen wiper
may be subjected to excessive stress and
the motor cut-out switch, which prevents
operation for a few seconds, may
intervene. If operation is not restored,
contact a Fiat Dealership.

64) Streaks of water may cause
unnecessary blade movements.

65) If the washer is used in cold weather,
the washer fluid sprayed against the glass
may freeze, which may hinder visibility.
Warm the glass with the defroster or rear
window demister before using the washer.

66) With the ignition switch or the
operation mode in ON and the lever in the
“AUTO” position, the wipers may
automatically operate in the situations
described below. If your hands get
trapped, you could suffer injuries or the
wipers could malfunction. Be sure to turn
the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position
or put the operation mode in OFF, or move
lever to the “OFF” position to deactivate
the rain sensor: when cleaning the outside
surface of the windscreen, if you touch or
wipe with a cloth on top of the rain sensor;
when using an automatic car wash; when a
physical shock is applied to the windscreen
or to the rain sensor.

IMPORTANT

21) Do not activate the rain sensor when

washing the car in an automatic car wash.

IMPORTANT OPERATION
TIPS FOR THE AIR
CONDITIONING

Park the vehicle in the shade.
Parking in the hot sun will make the
vehicle inside extremely hot, and it will
require more time to cool the interior. If
it is necessary to park in the sun, open
the windows for the first few minutes of
air conditioning operation to expel the
hot air.

Close the windows when the air
conditioning is in use. The entry of
outside air through open windows will

133

AH3100199

reduce the cooling efficiency.

Too much cooling is not good for the
health. The inside air temperature
should only be 5 to 6 °C below the
outside air temperature.

When operating the system, make
sure the air intake, which is located in
front of the windscreen, is free of
obstructions such as leaves and snow.
Leaves collected in the air-intake
plenum may reduce air flow and plug
the plenum water drains.

Air conditioning system refrigerant
recommendations

If the air conditioning seems less
effective than usual, the cause might be
a refrigerant leak. We recommend you
to have the system inspected.

The air conditioning system in your
vehicle must be charged with the
refrigerant HFC-134a (R134a).

Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant
will cause severe damage which will
result in the need to replace your
vehicle’s entire air conditioning system.
The release of refrigerant into the
atmosphere should be prevented.

It is recommended that the refrigerant
be recovered and recycled for further
use.

During a long period of disuse

The air conditioning should be operated
for at least five minutes each week,
even in cold weather. This is to prevent

poor lubrication of the compressor
internal parts and to maintain the air
conditioning in the best operating
condition.

PASSENGER
COMPARTMENT AIR
CLEANER / POLLEN
FILTER

An air filter has been incorporated into
this air conditioner so that dirt and dust
are cleaned from the air.

Replace the air filter periodically as its
ability to clean the air will be reduced as
it collects pollen and dirt.

NOTE Operation in certain conditions
such as driving on a dusty road and
frequent use of the air conditioner can
lead to reduction of service life of the
filter. When you feel that the airflow is
lower than normal or when the
windscreen or windows start to fog up
easily, replace the air filter. We
recommend you to have it checked.

WARNING

67) For safety, make sure you have a clear

view through all windows.

68) Use of the recirculation position for an
extended time may cause the windows to
fog up.

IMPORTANT

22) The engine speed may increase when

the air conditioning is operating. With an
increased engine speed, an A/T vehicle will
creep to a greater degree than with a lower
engine speed. Fully depress the brake
pedal to prevent the vehicle from creeping.

23) When using the air conditioning, the
idling speed may slightly increase as the air
conditioning compressor is switched on/off
automatically. While the vehicle with an
automatic transmission is stationary, fully
depress the brake pedal to prevent the
vehicle from creeping.

24) When using the mode selection dial
between the

and positions, prevent
fogging by moving the air selection lever to
select outside air (refer to “Air selection
lever”).

25) Use of the

(recirculation) position
for extended time may cause the windows
to fog up.

26) If the outside air is dusty or otherwise
contaminated, or if high cooling
performance is desired, set air selection
lever to the

(recirculation) position
and the temperature control dial all the way
to the right. Switch to the

(outside)
position periodically to increase ventilation
so that the windows do not become
fogged up.

IMPORTANT

2) The system uses a coolant that is

compatible with the laws in force in the
countries where the vehicle is sold, R134a
(indicated on a specific plate in the engine
compartment). The use of other coolants
affects the efficiency and condition of the
system. Also the compressor coolants
used must be compatible with the

74) 75) 76)

When the door window is automatically
closed by pulling up the switch fully, if a
hand or head is trapped in the closing
window, it will lower automatically.
Nonetheless, make sure that nobody
puts their head or hand out of the
window when closing the driver’s door
window. The lowered window will
become operational after a few
seconds.

NOTE The safety mechanism can be
activated if the driving conditions or
other circumstances cause the driver’s
door window to be subjected to a
physical shock similar to that caused by
a trapped hand or head.

NOTE If the safety mechanism is
activated five or more times in a row,
the safety mechanism will be cancelled
and the door window will not close
correctly. In such a case, the following
procedure should be implemented to
rectify this situation. If the window is
open, repeatedly raise the driver’s door
window switch until that window has
been fully closed. Following this, release
the switch, raise the switch once again
and hold it in this condition for at least
1 second, then release it. You should
now be able to operate in the normal
way.

NOTE If the battery terminals are
disconnected or the fuse for electric
window is replaced, the safety
mechanism will be cancelled and the
door window will not automatically
open/close completely. If the window is
open, repeatedly raise the driver’s door
window switch until the window has
been fully closed. Following this, release
the switch, raise the switch once again
and hold it in this condition for at least
1 second, then release it. You should
now be able to operate the driver’s door
window in the normal way.

WARNING

69) Incorrect use of the electric windows

may be dangerous. Before and during
operation, always check that nobody is
exposed to the risk of being injured either
directly by the moving window or through
objects getting caught or by being hit.
When leaving the vehicle, always remove
the key from the ignition switch to avoid the
risk of injury to anyone remaining in the car
due to accidental operation of the electric
windows.

70) Before operating the electric window
control, make sure that nothing is capable
of being trapped (head, hand, finger, etc.).

71) Never leave the vehicle without
removing the key. Never leave a child (or
other person who might not be capable of
safe operation of the electric window
control) in the vehicle alone.

140

AHA105512

72) A child may tamper with the switch at
the risk of its hands or head being trapped
in the window.

73) When driving with a child in the vehicle,
please press the window lock switch to
disable the passenger’s switches.

74) If the battery terminals are
disconnected or the fuse for electric
window is replaced, the safety mechanism
will be cancelled. If a hand or head got
trapped, a serious injury could result.

75) The safety mechanism is cancelled just
before the window is fully closed. This
allows the window to close completely.
Therefore be especially careful that no
fingers are trapped in the window.

76) The safety mechanism is deactivated
while the switch is pulled up. Therefore be
especially careful that fingers are not
trapped in the door window opening.

CATALYTIC
CONVERTER

The exhaust gas scavenging devices
used with catalytic converter are
extremely efficient for the reduction of
noxious gases. The catalytic converter
is installed in the exhaust system.

It is important to keep the engine
properly tuned to ensure proper catalyst
operation and prevent possible catalyst
damage.

77)

NOTE Use fuel of the type
recommended in “Fuel selection”.

WARNING

77) As with any vehicle, do not park or

operate this vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry grass or
leaves can come in contact with a hot
exhaust since a fire could occur.

DIESEL
PARTICULATE
FILTER (DPF)

(where provided)

The diesel particulate filter (DPF) is a
device that captures most of the
particulate matter (PM) in the exhaust
emissions of the diesel engine. The DPF
automatically burns away trapped PM
during vehicle operation. Under certain
driving conditions, however, the DPF is
not able to burn away all of the trapped
PM and, as a result, an excessive
amount of PM accumulates inside it.

78)

27)

NOTE To minimize the likelihood of
excessive accumulation of PM, try to
avoid driving for long periods at low
speeds and repeatedly driving short
distances and try to keep high engine
speed driving as much as possible.

NOTE The engine sounds slightly
different from usual while the DPF
automatically burns away trapped PM.
The change in the engine sound does
not indicate a fault.

DPF warning lamp

The DPF warning lamp comes on in the
event of an abnormality in the DPF
system.

72

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

If the DPF warning lamp comes on
during vehicle operation

Steady illumination of the DPF warning
lamp shows that the DPF has not been
able to burn away all of the trapped PM
and that, as a result, an excessive
amount of PM has accumulated inside
it. To enable the DPF to burn away the
PM, try to drive the vehicle as follows:

With the bar graph of engine coolant
temperature display stabilized in roughly
the middle of the scale, drive for
approximately 20 minutes at a speed of
at least 40 km/h.

28) 29)

IMPORTANT You do not have to
continuously drive exactly as indicated
above. Always strive to drive safely in
accordance with road conditions.

If the DPF warning lamp flashes
during vehicle operation

Flashing of the DPF warning lamp
indicates an abnormality in the DPF
system. Have the system inspected by
a Fiat Dealership.

WARNING

78) The diesel particulate filter (DPF)

reaches high temperatures during normal
operation. Do not park the vehicle on
flammable material (grass, dry leaves, pine
needles etc.): fire hazard.

IMPORTANT

27) Do not use any type of fuel or engine oil

that is not specified for your vehicle. Also,
do not use any moisture-removing agent or
other fuel additive. Such substances could
have a detrimental effect on the DPF. Refer
to “Fuel selection” and “Engine oil”.

28) 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.

29) Continuing to drive with the DPF
warning lamp flashing could result in engine
trouble and DPF damage.

CARGO AREA

CARGO LOADS

83) 84)

Cargo loads precautions

When loading luggage, be careful to the
following.

Stow cargo and luggage in the cargo

area whenever possible.

Distribute cargo or luggage evenly
not to be unbalanced in weight of a
load.

Do not place cargo or luggage on
the instrument panel. Also, do not stack
up cargo or luggage on the front
passenger’s seat or the rear seat.
Having the driver’s vision blocked, and
your cargo being thrown inside the
cabin if you suddenly have to brake can
cause a serious accident or injury.

HIGH-LOAD SYSTEM,
PROTRUDING LOADS

Check that the load is distributed evenly
on the flatbed and that the rear side
panel is correctly closed, so that the
load, or part of it, cannot fall onto the
road surface.

Some simple suggestions can improve
driving safety, comfort and vehicle
duration:

distribute the load evenly over the
platform: if it must be concentrated it in
a single area, choose an area mid-way
between both axles;

remember that the dynamic
behaviour of the vehicle is affected by
the transported weight: in particular, the
stopping distances are longer,
especially at high speed.

Bumpy roads and heavy braking may
cause unexpected load shifting with
consequently hazardous situations:
before setting off, secure the load tightly
using the partition and appropriate
hooks, steel cables, ropes or chains
strong enough to hold the items to be
secured.

83) 84) 85) 86) 87) 88)

WARNING

83) If the vehicle is parked on a very steep

slope or side gradient, opening the rear
flap of the flatbed or a side door may
cause any objects or luggage which is not
fixed to spill out.

84) If you wish to carry a reserve of petrol
in a can, observe the legal restrictions and
only use a can that is type-approved and
properly secured to the load anchorage
eyebolts. Anyway, by doing so, you
increase the risk of fire in the event of an
accident with your vehicle.

85) Respect the maximum permitted
vehicle loads also shown on the
registration certificate. The user is
responsible for arranging goods in the
luggage compartment and/or on the load
platform within the maximum permitted
loads.

75

86) Do not carry unnecessary objects on
the flatbed. Particularly if the vehicle is
driven in cities, where frequent stopping
and starting is necessary, supplementary
loads on the vehicle may have major
repercussions on fuel consumption.
Furthermore, do not travel with
unnecessary luggage, loads etc. on the
roof: the increased air resistance will
increase fuel consumption.

87) Using a lower gear when travelling with
heavy loads will improve vehicle
performance and extend the life of the
gearbox, limiting gear shifts and
overheating. This action ensures better
exhaust braking.

88) All precautions must be adopted to
prevent danger to other road users if the
load protrudes beyond the contour of the
vehicle. The rear and side protrusion must
be indicated according to the laws in force
in the country. The load must not
compromise stability of the vehicle or cover
lights, visual indicators or identifying plates.
Poles, bars and similar loads which are
difficult to see arranged horizontally must
not protrude beyond the contour of the
vehicle.

TRAILER TOWING

In order to tow a trailer with your
vehicle, when having a trailer towing
device mounted that meets all relevant
regulations in your area, consult a Fiat
Dealership.

Check that your towbar coupling ball
does not obscure your vehicle’s licence
plate when the trailer or caravan is
disconnected. If it obscures the licence
plate, please remove the towbar
coupling ball. And if the towbar
coupling ball is lockable by using a key
or any kind of tools, please remove the
coupling ball and use a towbar coupling
ball which can be removed or
repositioned without the use of a key or
any kind of tools instead.

The regulations concerning the towing
of a trailer may differ from country to
country. You are advised to obey the
regulations in each area.

NOTE If you are going to tow a trailer,
pay careful attention to the following
points.

89)

Maximum towable weight with
brake and maximum trailernose
weight

Never exceed the maximum towable
weight with brake and the maximum
trailer-nose weight as listed in the
specifications. (Refer to “Vehicle
weight”.

If you tow a trailer at an altitude of more
than 1,000 m above sea-level, reduce
your weight by 10 % of the gross
combination weight for every increase
of 1,000 m above sea-level, as the
engine output is lowered owing to
decrease in atmospheric pressure.

Operating hints

Have your vehicle serviced prior to
towing a heavy trailer, taking particular
care of the state of engine tune, the
condition of brakes, steering and tyres.
Adjust tyre pressures to those
specifications at trailer towing (refer to
“tyre inflation pressure”). Check the
tyres, wiring and brakes (if fitted) on the
trailer.

Leave plenty of room between the
front of your vehicle and the preceding
vehicle. If the trailer begins to sway or
becomes difficult to handle, gently slow
down or apply the independent trailer
brakes (if fitted) NOT the vehicle brakes.
Stop the vehicle and trailer in a safe
location. One cause of swaying is poor
trailer balance and until this has been
overcome the swaying will recur.
Relocated the load in your trailer and
re-assess the problem.

Be sure that the driving speed does
not exceed 100 km/h for trailer
operation.

To prevent shocks from the overrun
brake, depress the brake pedal lightly at
first and then more strongly.

To make full use of engine braking,
change to a lower gear before
descending a slope.

The body, brakes, clutch, and
chassis will be under additional strain
when towing a trailer.

The heavier weight and higher rolling
and air resistance will increase fuel
consumption.

Additional precautions for vehicles
equipped with an automatic
transmission

It is recommended a lower gear in

socket might become clogged by foreign
material and be short-circuited.

33) Never leave lighters, canned
carbonated beverage, and spectacles in
the cabin when parking the vehicle in hot
sunshine. The cabin will become extremely
hot, so lighters and other flammable items
may catch fire and unopened drink cans
may rupture. Also, spectacles with plastic
lenses or materials could deform or crack.

34) Put out matches and cigarettes before
they are placed in the ashtray.

35) Always close the ashtray. If left open,
other cigarette butts in the ashtray may be
rekindled.

36) Be sure to use a “plug-in” type
accessory operating at 12 V and at 120 W
or less. When using more than one socket
at the same time, make sure that the
electrical accessories are 12 V accessories
and that the total power consumption does
not exceed 120 W.

37) Long use of the electric appliance
without running the engine may run down
the battery.

FUEL SELECTION

Recommended fuel: Cetane number
(EN590) 51 or higher

38) 39) 40) 41)

NOTE For diesel fuel, due to the
separation of paraffin, the fluidity
decreases considerably as the
temperature falls. Because of this fact
there are two kinds of fuel: “summer”
and “winter”. This must be considered
in winter use. Select either of the two
kinds of fuel in accordance with
ambient temperature.

Above -5 °C: “Summer” diesel
Below -5 °C: “Winter” diesel

When travelling abroad, find out in
advance about the fuels served in local
service stations.

Poor-quality diesel fuel can cause
deposits to form in the injector, resulting
in black smoke and rough idling.

If these problems occur, you are
advised to add a cleaning additive to
the diesel fuel when you refuel the
vehicle. The additive will break up and
remove the deposits, thereby returning
the engine to a normal condition.

Be sure to use a FCA GENUINE
DIESEL FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER.
Using an unsuitable additive could
make the engine malfunction. For
details, please contact your Fiat
Dealsership.

Graphical expression for consumer
information

Identifier for diesel-type fuels
The symbol shown below helps you to

recognise the correct type of fuel to use
in your vehicle. Before proceeding with
refuelling, check the symbols inside the
fuel filler flap (where provided) and
compare them with the symbols shown
on the fuel pump (where provided).

B7: Diesel fuel containing up to 7%
(V/V) Fatty Acid Methyl Esters – Eg. EN
590 compliant diesel.

The diesel engine are compatible with
B7 type diesel (containing 7% fatty acid
methyl esters) conforming to European
standards EN590.

42)

IMPORTANT

38) Diesel-powered vehicles to comply with

the Euro 4 and Euro 5 regulation are
designed to use only diesel fuel that meets
the EN 590 standard. Use of any other type
of diesel fuel would adversely affect the
engine’s performance and durability.

39) Your vehicle is designed to use only
diesel fuel that meets the EN 590 standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel (bio
diesel, methylester, etc.) would adversely
affect the engine’s performance and
durability.

40) 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.

41) If proper “winter” fuel is not used in
winter, the diesel preheat indicator lamp
may blink and the engine speed may not
rise above the idling speed because of fuel
freezing. In this case, keep the engine idling
for approximately 10 minutes, then turn off
the ignition switch or put the operation
mode in OFF and immediately turn it on or
put in ON again to confirm that the diesel
preheat indicator lamp is off. Refer to
“Diesel preheat indicator lamp”.

42) Do not use more than 7%
concentration of fatty acid methyl esters
(bio diesel) by volume. Use of more than
7% concentration would adversely affect
the engine’s performance and durability.

1. Open the cover (1). Insert the key in
the cap (2) and unlock it.

2. Turn the cap and remove it.

109)

3. Insert the gun in the tank port as far
as it goes.

4. When the gun stops automatically,
do not fill with fuel any more.

5. To close, turn the fuel cap slowly
clockwise until you hear clicking
sounds, then gently push the fuel tank
filler door closed.

WARNING

98) When handling fuel, comply with the

safety regulations displayed by garages
and filling stations.

99) Fuel is highly flammable and explosive.
You could be burned or seriously injured
when handling it. When refueling your
vehicle, always turn the engine off and
keep away from flames, sparks and
smoking materials. Always handle fuel in
well ventilated outdoor areas.

100) Before removing the fuel cap, be sure
to get rid of your body’s static electricity by
touching a metal part of the vehicle or fuel
pump. Any static electricity on your body
could create a spark that ignites fuel vapor.

101) Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, removing
the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do not let
any other person come near the fuel tank
filler. If you allowed a person to help you
and that person was carrying static
electricity, fuel vapor could be ignited.

102) Do not move away from the fuel tank
filler until refueling is finished. If you moved
away and did something else (for example,
sitting on a seat) part-way through the
refueling process, you could pick up a
fresh charge of static electricity.

103) Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor.
Fuel contains toxic substances.

104) Keep the doors and windows closed
while refueling the vehicle. If they were
open, fuel vapor could get into the cabin.

105) If the fuel cap must be replaced, use
only a Fiat genuine part.

106) Since the fuel system may be under
pressure, remove the fuel cap slowly. This
relieves any pressure or vacuum that might
have built up in the fuel tank. If you hear a
hissing sound, wait until it stops before
removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may
spray out, injuring you or others.

107) 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.

108) Do not use a mobile phone near the
refuelling pump: risk of fire.

109) Do not tilt the gun.
