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.

REFUELLING
Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95 in compliance with the European specification
EN228.
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. LPG engines: refuel only with LPG for motor vehicles conforming to the European specification EN589. 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 ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine starts. Versions with automatic transmission (where present): make sure that the handbrake is engaged and that the gear lever is in P (Parking) or N (Neutral), depress the brake pedal, without pressing the accelerator pedal, then turn the ignition key to AVV or press the ignition device button; release the key or the button as soon as the engine has started.
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.

SYMBOLS
Some car components have coloured labels whose symbols indicate precautions to be observed when using this component. A plate summarising these symbols can also be found under the bonnet.
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.
USE OF THE OWNER HANDBOOK
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
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.

FIAT CODE
The Fiat Code system prevents unauthorised use of the vehicle, disabling engine starting.
The system does not need to be enabled/activated: operation is automatic, regardless of the fact that the vehicle's doors are locked or unlocked.
When the ignition device is set to MAR,
KNOWING YOUR CAR
the Fiat Code system identifies the code transmitted by the key. If the code is recognised as valid, the Fiat Code system enables engine starting.
When the ignition device is brought back to STOP, the Fiat Code system deactivates the control unit controlling the engine, thus preventing its starting.
For the correct engine starting procedures, see the instructions in the "Starting the engine" paragraph, "Starting and driving" chapter.
IRREGULAR OPERATION
If, during starting, the key code is not correctly recognised, the 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 possible to start the engine, contact a Fiat Dealership.
If the 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.

KNOWING YOUR CAR
Ring 1 fig. 29 can be set to the following positions:
windscreen wiper off fixed intermittent wipe (slow) speed-dependant intermittent wipe
LO
continuous slow operation
HI
continuous fast operation
MIST function
Move the stalk upwards (unstable position) to activate the MIST
function: operation is limited to the time for which the stalk is held in this position. When released, the stalk will return to its default position and the windscreen wiper will be stopped. This function is useful to remove small deposits of dust from the windscreen, or morning dew.
IMPORTANT This function does not activate the windscreen washer; windscreen washer fluid will not therefore be sprayed onto the windscreen. To spray windscreen washer fluid onto the windscreen, the washing function must be used.
With the ring nut 1 fig. 29 in position
, the windscreen wiper is not
activated. In position
, the pause time between the strokes of the windscreen wiper is 10 seconds, independently of the vehicle speed. In position
, the pause time between two strokes is set according to the vehicle speed: when the speed increases, the time between two strokes decreases. In position LO or HI, the windscreen wiper moves continuously, i.e. without a pause between two strokes.
“Smart washing” function
Pull the stalk towards the steering wheel (unstable position) to operate the windscreen washer.
When the stalk is held pulled for longer than half a second, the windscreen wiper is moved with active control. When the driver releases the stalk, the windscreen wiper makes three strokes. Afterwards, if the control is in position
, the washing cycle is concluded by
one last stroke after a 6 second pause. If the position is LO or HI, the smart
washing function is not carried out.
IMPORTANT If the lever is activated for less than half a second, only the windscreen washer jet is activated. Do not prolong the activation of the "Smart Washing" function for more than 30 seconds. Do not activate the windscreen washer control when the reservoir is empty.
“Service Position” function
This function makes it possible to replace the wipers or protect them in conditions of ice and/or snow.
It can only be activated after stopping the engine.

The function can be activated by turning the ring nut to position
and
moving the stalk upwards, to the MIST
position, more than three times. The activations are used to position the wipers as preferred. The function is deactivated when the vehicle is turned on, with a wiping request or when the vehicle is moving (speed above 5 Km/h).

The sensor will be activated when the ignition device is turned to MAR, and will be deactivated in the STOP position.
This is a device located behind the interior rear view mirrorfig. 30, in contact with the windscreen and can measure the amount of rain and, consequently, manage the automatic wiping mode of the windscreen in accordance with the amount of water on the screen. The rain sensor will be activated when the ignition device is turned to MAR. If no rain is detected, the wiper will not carry out any strokes. If it is raining, the windscreen wiper moves according to the amount of rain measured by the sensor.

WARNING
22) If the window needs to be cleaned,
make sure the device is deactivated or the key is on STOP.
IMPORTANT
5) Never use the windscreen wipers 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 subsequently restored, even after restarting the engine, contact a Fiat Dealership.
6) Do not operate the windscreen wiper with the blades lifted from the windscreen.
7) Do not activate the rain sensor when washing the car in an automatic car wash.
8) Make sure the device is switched off if there is ice on the windscreen.
