Dear Customer,
We would like to congratulate and thank you for choosing a Fiat Panda.
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 Panda.
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 Fiat Panda 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!

IMPORTANT When putting the back
seat to its normal position, make sure
the seat belts are positioned so they are
ready to use.
ADJUSTING THE SEAT
BELT HEIGHT
(for versions/markets, where provided)
85) 86)
Four different adjustments in height are
provided. To adjust, press button A
fig. 58 and raise or lower handle B.
Always adjust the height of the seat belt
to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the case of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.
For some versions, front seat belts have
just one fixed anchor point located on
the door pillar.
WARNING
81)Never press button C fig. 55 when
travelling.
82)Remember that in the event of an
accident, the rear seat passengers not
wearing seat belts are exposed to a very
serious risk and also represent a serious
danger for the front seat occupants.
83)The rear central seat belt (for
versions/markets, where provided) is
provided with a service buckle. Do not use
the seat belt with the service buckle not
fastened. In this case there is a high risk of
injury or death in the event of an accident.
Before using the belt, always make sure
that the service buckle is correctly
fastened.
84)The rear left and right side belts are
provided with an adjustment device for the
metal tongue position (metal hook). Adjust
the tongue position with respect to the seat
belt to improve comfort and reduce noise
inside the passenger compartment.
85)Stop the vehicle to adjust the seat belt
height.
86)After height adjustment, make sure that
the cursor to which the ring is secured is
blocked in one of the preset positions.
To do this, with button A fig. 58 released,
exert further pressure downwards to allow
the locking device to click if the grip has
not been released in one of the possible
positions.
SBR (Seat Belt
Reminder) SYSTEM
The SBR system warns the passengers
of the front and rear (for versions/
markets, where provided) seats if their
seat belt is not fastened.
The system signals unfastened seat
belts with visual warnings (warning
lights on in the instrument panel and
icons on the display) and an acoustic
signal (see the following paragraphs).
Contact a Fiat Dealership to deactivate
this acoustic warning permanently.
The acoustic warning can be
reactivated at any time through the
display Setup Menu.

❒lower the vehicle and remove the
jack;
❒use the wrench provided to fully
tighten the bolts, passing alternately
from one bolt to the opposite one.
Versions with alloy wheels
Proceed as follows:
❒insert the wheel on the hub and using
the wrench provided tighten the bolts;
❒lower the vehicle and remove the
jack;
❒use the wrench provided to fully
tighten the bolts, passing alternately
from one bolt to the opposite one.
❒reinsert the press-fitted hub cap,
making sure that the reference hole on
the wheel is aligned with the reference
pin on the cap.
IMPORTANT If it is not fitted properly,
the hub cap may detach itself when the
vehicle is running.
At the end of operation
❒stow the space-saver wheel in the
compartment provided in the luggage
compartment;
❒insert the jack and the other tools in
the container;
❒arrange the container and tools on
the space-saver wheel;
❒correctly reposition the boot mat.
WARNING
143)The space-saver wheel (for
versions/markets, where provided) is
specific to your vehicle, do not use it on
other models, or use the space-saver
wheel of other models on your vehicle. The
space-saver wheel must only be used in
the event of an emergency. It must only be
used for the distance necessary to reach
a service point and the vehicle speed must
not exceed 80 km/h. The space-saver
wheel has an orange label that
summarises the main cautions for use and
limitations. Never remove or cover the
label. The following information is provided
in four languages on the label: "Important!
For temporary use only! 80 km/h max!
Replace with a standard wheel as soon as
possible. Never cover this indication".
Never apply any hub cap to the
space-saver wheel.
144)Use your hazard lights, warning
triangle, etc to show that your vehicle is
stationary. Passengers should get out
of the vehicle, particularly if it is heavily
loaded, and wait for the wheel to be
changed away from the traffic. On hills or
uneven roads, use chocks or appropriate
objects to block the wheels of the vehicle.145)The vehicle's driving characteristics
will be modified with the space-saver wheel
fitted. Avoid violent acceleration and
braking, abrupt steering and fast cornering.
The overall duration of the space-saver
wheel is about 3000 km, after which the
relevant tyre must be replaced with another
one of the same type. Never install a
traditional tyre on a rim designed to be
used as a space-saver wheel. Have the
wheel repaired and refitted as soon as
possible. Using two or more space-saver
wheels at the same time is forbidden.
Do not apply grease to the bolt threads
before fitting: they could come unscrewed.
146)The jack may be used to replace
wheels only on the vehicle that it comes
with, or other vehicles of the same model.
Never use the jack for other purposes,
such as lifting other vehicle models. Never
use it for repair operations under the
vehicle. Incorrect positioning of the jack
may cause the vehicle to fall. Do not use
the jack for loads higher than those shown
on the label. Never install snow chains
on the space-saver wheel; if a front tyre
(driving wheel) is punctured and you need
to use snow chains, use a standard wheel
from the rear axle and install the
space-saver wheel on the rear axle. In this
way, with two normal front drive wheels,
it is possible to use snow chains.
147)Incorrect hub cap assembly may
cause it to come off when the vehicle is
moving. Never tamper with the inflation
valve. Never introduce tools of any kind
between rim and tyre. Check tyre and
space-saver wheel pressures regularly,
complying with the values given in the
"Technical specifications" chapter.

SCHEDULED
SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the vehicle
under the best conditions. For this
reason, Fiat has planned a series of
checks and services at fixed distance
intervals and, where provided, at fixed
time intervals, as described in the
Scheduled Servicing Plan.
Before each service, it is always
necessary to carefully follow the
instructions in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan (e.g. periodically check level of
fluids, tyre pressure, etc.).
Scheduled Servicing is offered by all
Fiat Dealerships according to a set time
schedule. If, during each operation, in
addition to the ones scheduled, the
need arises for further replacements or
repairs, these may be carried out with
your explicit agreement only. If your
vehicle is used frequently for towing,
the interval between one service
operation and the next should be
reduced.IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
interventions are set out by the
Manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the warranty.
It is advisable to inform a Fiat
Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the next
service.
PERIODIC CHECKS
Every1,000km or before long
journeys, check and if necessary, top
up: engine coolant level; brake fluid
level; screen washer fluid level; tyre
inflation pressure and condition; lighting
system operation (headlights, direction
indicators, hazard warning lights, etc.);
screen washer/wiper system operation
and positioning/wear of windscreen/
rear window wiper blades.
Every3,000km, check and top up if
required: engine oil level.HEAVY-DUTY USE OF THE
VEHICLE
If the vehicle is used under one of the
following conditions: towing a trailer
or motorhome; dusty roads; short (less
than 7-8 km) and repeated journeys
with sub-zero outside temperatures;
engine often idling or driving long
distances at low speed or long periods
of inactivity, the following checks must
be carried out more often than
indicated in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan:
❒check front disc brake pad condition
and wear;
❒check cleanliness of bonnet and
luggage compartment locks,
cleanliness and lubrication of linkage;
❒visually inspect conditions of: engine,
gearbox, transmission, pipes and
hoses (exhaust/fuel system/brakes) and
rubber elements (gaiters/sleeves/
bushes, etc.);
❒check battery charge and battery
fluid level (electrolyte);
❒visually inspect conditions of the
auxiliary drive belts;
❒check and, if necessary, change
engine oil and replace oil filter / pollen
filter / air cleaner.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE VEHICLE AT THE END OF
ITS LIFE
FCA has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its production
processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly "eco-compatible". To grant customers the best possible service
in terms of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Directive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of
their life, FCA is offering its customers the chance to hand over their vehicle at the end of its life without incurring any additional
costs. The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over, the last keeper or owner should not incur any
expenses as a result of it having a zero or negative market value.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, contact one of our dealerships if you are purchasing another
vehicle or an FCA-authorised collection and scrapping centre. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality
service for the collection, treatment and recycling of vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from an FCA dealership or by calling the
number in the Warranty Booklet or by consulting the websites of the various FCA brands.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
WARNING
INTERIOR FITTINGS
❒Never travel with the glove compartment open: it could injure the passenger in the event of a crash.
❒The cigar lighter gets very hot. Handle it carefully and make sure that children do not touch it: risk of fire and/or burns. Always check that
the cigar lighter plug has been released.
ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
❒After travelling for a short distance, check that the fixing screws for the attachments are correctly tightened.
❒Never exceed the maximum permitted loads (see chapter "Technical specifications").
❒Evenly distribute the load and take into account, when driving, the increased responsiveness of the vehicle to side wind.
WIRING FOR RADIO SYSTEM
❒If you wish to have a sound system installed after purchasing the vehicle, first contact a Fiat Dealership whose qualified personnel will give
you advise about a sound system that does not damage the battery charge. Excessive nonrunning consumption damages the battery and
may cause your battery warranty to be terminated.
PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
❒During normal service, the catalytic converter and the diesel particulate filter (DPF) reach high temperatures. Do not therefore park the
vehicle over inflammable materials (grass, dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire hazard.
INTERIORS
❒Never use flammable products, such as petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean the inside of the vehicle. The electrostatic charges which are
generated by rubbing during the cleaning operation may cause a fire.
❒Do not keep aerosol cans in the vehicle: they might explode. Aerosol cans must not be exposed to a temperature exceeding 50°C. When
the vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the internal temperature can greatly exceed this value.
POWER SUPPLY
❒Modifications or repairs to the supply system that are not carried out correctly or do not take the system technical specifications into
account can cause malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
LOADING ADVICE(Panda VAN versions)
❒Abrupt braking or occasional impacts may cause sudden movements of the load with consequent situations of hazard for the driver and
passengers: before setting off, secure the load tightly using the partition and, where provided, the appropriate hooks. For securing use
cables, ropes or belts strong enough to hold the items to be secured.
