IMPORTANT The warning light will flash to indicate
a system failure. If this is the case, go to a Fiat
Dealership to have the system checked.
EOBD/INJECTION SYSTEM
FAILURE (amber)
In normal conditions, the warning light switches on
when the key is turned to MAR (on some versions,
with a message on the display), but should switch off
as soon as the engine is started.
If the warning light remains on or switches on whilst
driving, the injection system is not working properly;
in particular, if the warning light switches on
constantly, this indicates a malfunction in the
supply/ignition system that could cause excessive
exhaust emissions, a possible loss of performance,
poor driveability and high fuel consumption.
In these conditions, you can continue driving without
demanding excessive effort or speed from the
engine. Prolonged use of the car with the warning
light on may cause damage: contact a Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible.
The warning light switches off after the malfunction
disappears, but the notification is stored in the
system.
NOTE (valid only for petrol engines)
If the warning light flashes, the catalytic converter
may be damaged.In this case, it is necessary to release the accelerator
pedal to lower the speed of the engine until the
warning light stops flashing; continue the journey at
moderate speed, trying to avoid driving conditions
that may cause further flashing and contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible if the
warning light either does
notswitchonwhenthekeyisturnedto
MAR or if while driving the warning light switches
on either constantly or flashing (along with a
message and a symbol on the display on some
versions). Operation of the
warning light may
be verified by traffic control officers using
appropriate equipment . Comply with the laws
and regulations of the country where you are
driving.
ESC SYSTEM FAILURE (amber)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This warning light switches on when the ignition key
is turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a
few seconds. If the warning light does not switch off
or stays on (along with a message on the display
on some versions) whilst driving, contact a Fiat
Dealership. Flashing of the warning light while driving
indicates the intervention of the ESC system.

INFLATION PROCEDURE
WARNING
Put on the protective gloves provided
together with quick tyre repair kit .
Proceed as follows:
❒Pull up the handbrake.Unscrew the tyre valve
cap, take out the filler hose A fig. 120 and tighten
the ring nut B on the tyre valve;❒make sure that the compressor switch A fig. 121 is
in position 0 (off ), start the engine, plug into the
power socket in the central tunnel fig. 122 and
operate the compressor turning switch A to
position I (on). Inflate the tyre to the pressure
specified in the "Inflation pressure" paragraph in
the "Technical specifications" section. Check tyre
pressure on gauge B fig. 121 with compressor
off to obtain a more precise reading;
❒if after five minutes it is still impossible to reach at
least 1.8 bar, disengage the compressor from the
valve and power socket, then move the car
forwards by approx. ten metres in order
to distribute the sealing fluid inside the tyre evenly,
then repeat the inflation operation;
❒if after this operation you still cannot reach at least
1.8 bar after 5 minutes from switching on the
compressor, do not resume driving but contact a
Fiat Dealership;

Apply the adhesive label where it can be
easily seen by the driver as a reminder
that the tyre has been treated with the quick
repair kit . Drive carefully, particularly on bends.

restore the correct pressure (with the engine
running and the handbrake engaged), resume
driving and drive with great care to the nearest

engine compar tment : gas and
inflammable vapours may be present , with the
risk of fire.
WARNING
Be very careful when working in the
engine compartment when the engine is
hot : you may get burned. Remember that the
fan may start up if the engine is hot : this could
injure you. Scarves, ties and other loose clothing
