GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
The GSI (Gear Shift Indicator) system advises the
driver to change gear through a specific indication on
the control panel. Through the GSI, the driver is
notified that changing gear will allow a reduction in
fuel consumption.
When the SHIFT UP icon (
SHIFT) fig. 5 is shown
on the display, the GSI is advising the driver to
engage a higher gear, while the SHIFT DOWN
(
SHIFT) icon advises the driver to engage a lower
gear.
The indication in the instrument panel remains on
until the driver changes gear or the driving
conditions return to a situation where changing gear
is not required to improve consumption.

TRIP COMPUTERGeneral information
The Trip computer is used to display information on
car operation when the key is turned to MAR-ON.
Two separate trips, called “Trip A” and “Trip B”,
are provided to monitor the entire mission (journey)
in a reciprocally independent manner.
Both functions can be reset (reset - start of a new
journey).
“Trip A” is used to display the figures relating to:
❒Outside temperature (for versions/markets where
provided)
❒Range
❒Distance covered
❒Average consumption
❒Instantaneous consumption
❒Average speed
❒Trip time (driving time).
“Trip B” is used to display the figures relating to:
❒Distance travelled B
❒Average consumption B
❒Average speed B
❒Trip time B (driving time).
NoteThe “Trip B” function may be disabled (see
“Activating Trip B”). The “Range” and “Instant
consumption" parameters cannot be reset.Values displayed
Range
This indicates the approximate distance which can be
travelled with the amount of fuel present in the
tank.“----”will appear on the display in the
following cases:
❒range value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
❒car parked with engine running for an extended
period.
IMPORTANT The range value variation can be
affected by several factors: driving style, type of route
(motorway, urban, mountain roads, etc.), conditions
of use (load, tyre pressures, etc.). Trip planning
must therefore take the above into account.
Distance covered
Shows the distance covered since the start of the
new journey.
Average consumption
Shows the approximate average fuel consumption
since the start of the new journey.
Instantaneous consumption
This indicates the fuel consumption. The value is
constantly updated. The display will show “----”if
the car is parked with the engine running.

"ENERGY SAVING" FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If, after automatic engine restarting, the driver does
not carry out any action on the car for an extended
period (about 3 minutes), the Start&Stop system
stops the engine definitively, to prevent fuel
consumption. In these cases, the engine can only be
restarted using the ignition key.
NoteIn any case, it is possible to keep the engine
running by deactivating the Start&Stop system.
IRREGULAR OPERATION
In the event of malfunction, the Start&Stop system is
deactivated. The driver is informed about the fault
through the flashing of the
symbol on the display
(for some versions together with the display of a
message). In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership.
CAR INACTIVITY
In the event of car inactivity, special attention must
be paid to the disconnection of the battery power
supply.
Proceed as follows: detach the connector A fig. 70
(by pressing button B) from sensor C for monitoring
the status of the battery installed on the negative
battery pole D. This sensor should never be
disconnected from the pole except if the battery is
replaced.
WARNING
When replacing the batter y, always go
to a Fiat Dealership. Replace the battery
with one of the same type (HEAVY DUTY) and
with the same specifications.
IMPORTANT After turning the ignition key to STOP,
wait at least 1 minute before disconnecting the
electrical supply to the battery.

SAVING FUELHere are some suggestions which can help you to
save fuel and lower harmful emissions.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out in
accordance with the “Scheduled Servicing Plan”.
Ty r e s
Check the tyre pressures at least once every 4
weeks: if the pressure is too low, consumption levels
increase as resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight
of the car and its arrangement greatly affect fuel
consumption and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof
after use. These accessories lower aerodynamic
penetration and adversely affect consumption levels.
When transporting particularly large objects, use a
trailer if possible.Electrical devices
Only use electrical devices for the amount of time
needed. The heated rear window, additional
headlights, windscreen wipers and heater fan need a
considerable amount of energy, therefore increasing
fuel consumption (by up to 25% in the urban cycle).
Climate control system
The use of the climate control system leads to higher
fuel consumption. If the temperature outside
permits, try to use ventilation only.
Devices for aerodynamic control
The use of non-certified devices for aerodynamic
control may adversely affect air drag and fuel
consumption.
DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine with the car at a standstill
or at idle or high speed: under these conditions
the engine warms up much more slowly, increasing
consumption and emissions. It is therefore advisable
to move off immediately, slowly, avoiding high speeds:
in this way the engine will warm up more quickly.

Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when at traffic lights or before
switching off the engine. This action and also double
declutching is absolutely pointless on modern cars
and also increases consumption and pollution.
Gear selection
Use a higher gear as soon as traffic and road
conditions allow. Using a low gear for faster
acceleration will increase consumption.
In the same way improper use of a high gear
increases consumption, emissions and engine wear.
Maximum speed
Fuel consumption increases considerably with speed.
Maintain a constant speed, avoiding unnecessary
braking and acceleration, which cost in terms of both
fuel and emissions.
Acceleration
Sudden acceleration has a very negative effect on fuel
consumption and emissions: accelerate gradually.CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short distances and frequent cold start-ups will
prevent the engine from reaching optimal running
temperature.
Consequently, both consumption (from +15 to +30%
on urban cycle ) and emissions will increase.
Traffic and road conditions
Rather high fuel consumption is caused by heavy
traffic, for instance when travelling in a queue with
frequent use of low gears or in large towns with
many traffic lights. Winding mountain roads and
rough road surfaces also adversely affect
consumption.
Stops in traffic
During prolonged stops (e.g. level crossings) the
engine should be switched off.

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.

FUEL CONSUMPTIONThe fuel consumption figures given in the table below are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests
laid down by specific European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring consumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerating in all gears, simulating extraurban use of the car: speed varies
between 0 and 120 km/h;
❒combined fuel consumption: calculated with a weighting of approximately 37% of the urban cycle and 63%
of the extra-urban cycle.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic conditions, weather conditions, driving style, general condition of the
car, trim level/equipment/accessories, use of the climate control system, car load, presence of roof racks
and other situations that adversely affect the aerodynamics or wind resistance lead to different fuel
consumption figures than those measured. The fuel consumption will get more regular only after having
driven the first 3000 km.
