REFUELLING

Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol
with an octane rating (RON) of no less than
95 conforming to the European specification EN

228.
Diesel engines: only use diesel fuel for motor

vehicles conforming to the European specification
EN 590. The use of other products or mixtures
may damage the engine beyond repair and
consequently invalidate the warranty, depending
on the damage caused.

STARTING THE ENGINE

Petrol engines: make sure that the handbrake is
engaged, set the gearshift lever to neutral, fully
depress the clutch without pressing the
accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVV
and release it as soon as the engine has started.

Diesel engines: Turn the ignition key to MAR and
wait for the warning light

to go out. Turn
the ignition key to AVV and release as soon as
the engine starts.

PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL

The catalytic converter develops high
temperatures during operation. Do not park the
vehicle on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or
other flammable material as this constitutes a 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 electrical system of the
vehicle can support the required load.

SCHEDULED SERVICING

Correct maintenance is essential for ensuring the
vehicle stays in tip-top condition and retains its
safety features, its environmental friendliness and
low running costs for a long time to come.

THE OWNER'S HANDBOOK CONTAINS…

... important information, advise and warnings for
correct use, driving safety and maintenance of
your vehicle over time. Particular attention
should be paid to information marked with the
following symbols:

(environmental protection),

GUID-1DEA0B72-B8FB-4534-9C53-9FC2E6A9E916

(personal safety),

SYMBOLS

Special coloured labels have been attached near or
on some of the components of your vehicle. These
labels bear symbols that draw your attention to
the precautions required when handling the
component in question.

The inner surface of the engine bonnet includes a
label with the different symbols used.

THE FIAT CODE SYSTEM

This is an electrical engine immobiliser system which
increases protection against attempted theft of the
vehicle. It is automatically activated when the ignition
key is extracted.

Each time the vehicle is started turning the ignition
key to MAR, the Fiat CODE system control unit
sends a recognition code to the engine control unit
to deactivate the inhibitor.

If, during ignition, the code is not correctly
recognized, a warning light

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.

ORDERING ADDITIONAL REMOTE
CONTROLS

The system acknowledges up to 8 remote controls.
Should a new remote control be necessary, contact a
Fiat Dealership, taking a personal identity document
and the vehicle ownership documents with you.

DEAD LOCK

(for versions/markets, where provided)

This security device prevents the opening of the
doors from inside the passenger compartment
if there has been a break-in attempt (e.g. a window
has been broken).

Dead lock therefore offers the best possible
protection against break-in attempts. We
recommend engaging it whenever the vehicle is
parked and left unattended.

WARNING

Once the dead lock system is engaged it

is impossible to open the doors from
inside the vehicle. Before engaging the system
please therefore check that there is no one left
on board.

WARNING

If the remote control battery is flat, the

system can be engaged by inserting
the metal key in the door lock as described
previously: in this case, the device only remains
active for the rear doors.

ALARM

(for versions/markets, where provided)

The alarm, in addition to all the previously described
remote control functions, is controlled by the
receiver located under the dashboard near the fuse
box.

ALARM TRIPPING

The alarm trips in the following cases:

unauthorised opening of a door, the bonnet, the
tailgate or a sliding side door (if present)
(perimeter protection)

unauthorized operation of the starting device (key
turned on using a key that is not enabled)

cutting of the battery leads
moving presence inside the passenger

compartment (volumetric protection)
anomalous lifting/tilting of the vehicle.

Depending on the market, the activation of the alarm
causes the activation of the siren and the direction
indicators (for about 26 seconds). Alarm tripping and
the number of cycles depend on the sales market.

There are a maximum number of acoustic/visual
cycles. When this is reached the system returns to
normal operation.

Volumetric and antilifting protections are disabled by
pressing the control button installed on the front
dashboard (see paragraph "Antilift protections).

With the doors and bonnet closed and the ignition
key either turned to STOP or removed, point the
key with the remote control towards the vehicle and
press and release button

Except for some markets, the system produces an
acoustic warning (beep) and enables door locking.

A self-diagnostic stage precedes the turning on of the
alarm: if a fault is detected, the system produces
another acoustic signal.

In this case switch off the alarm by pressing
check that all the doors, bonnet and tailgate are
closed correctly; then switch the alarm back on by
pressing .

If a door or the bonnet is not properly shut, it will
be excluded from the testing by the alarm system.

A fault has occurred in system operation if the alarm
produces an acoustic signal even when the doors,
bonnet and boot are correctly closed. Go to a
Fiat Dealership.

IMPORTANT The alarm does not come on when the
central locking is activated using the metal insert in
the key.

IMPORTANT The alarm is configured to comply with
the regulations existing in different countries.

TRIP COMPUTER

General features

The Trip computer is used to display information on
vehicle operation when the ignition key is turned
to MAR. This function allows you to define two
separate trips, called "Trip A" and "Trip B", for
monitoring the "complete mission" (journey) of the
vehicle in a reciprocally independent manner. Both
functions can be reset (start of a new journey).

“Trip A” is used to display the values relating to:

Outside temperature (for Natural Power vehicles
equipped with temperature sensor)

Range
Distance travelled
Average consumption
Current consumption
Average speed
Travel time (driving time).

"Trip B", available on multifunction display only, is
used to display the values relating to:

Distance travelled B
Average consumption B
Average speed B
Travel time B (driving time).

INDEX

24

“Trip B” may be disabled (see “Activating
Trip B”). “Range” and “Instant
consumption" parameters cannot be

reset.

Values displayed

Range (for versions/markets where provided)

This value shows the distance that the car can still
cover before needing fuel, assuming that driving style
is unvaried. “----”will appear on the display in
the following cases:

range is lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
vehicle is left parked with the engine running for a

long time.

IMPORTANT The range can be affected by several
factors: driving style (see “Driving style” in the
“Starting and driving” section), type of route
(motorway, towns and cities, mountain roads, etc.),
conditions of use (load, tyre pressures, etc.). Trip
planning must therefore take the above into account.

Distance travelled

This value shows the distance covered from the start
of the new journey.

Average consumption

This value shows the approximate average fuel
consumption from the start of the new journey.

Current consumption

This value shows the fuel consumption. The value is
constantly updated. The message “----” will appear
on the display if the vehicle is parked with the engine
running.

Average speed

Shows the average speed of the vehicle by using the
overall time elapsed since the start of a new journey.

Journey time

Time elapsed since the start of the new journey.

IMPORTANT If there is no information, the Trip
computer displays "----" in place of the value. When
normal operating conditions are restored, the
counting of the various values is resumed, without
either zeroing the values displayed prior to the
problem, or starting a new journey.

ControlTRIP button

The TRIP button is located at the end of the right
stalk fig. 15. With the ignition key turned to
MAR-ON, this button allows you to view the
previously described values and also zero them to
begin a new journey:

press briefly to display the different values;
long push to reset and then start a new journey.

This begins after a reset:
