Page 6 of 323

VERY IMPORTANT
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: only refuel with diesel fuel 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.
STARTING THE ENGINE
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 it as soon as the engine has started.Diesel engines: turn the ignition key to MAR
and wait for the
andwarning lights to switch off. Then turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has
started.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high temperatures during operation. Do not park on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flammable
material: 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 vehicle's electrical system can support the required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance enables the vehicle to perfectly maintain performance and safety characteristics, its environmental friendliness and low
running costs over time.

WARNING
8) Before opening a door, ensure
that you can do it in conditions
of safety.
9) You must not open the left-hand
sliding side door with the fuel cap
open while refuelling. Check that
the fuel cap is closed while
opening/closing the sliding side
door to avoid damage.
10) If you are parked on a slope, do
not leave the sliding door locked
in the open position. An
involuntary impact could unhook
the door, causing it to move.
11) Before leaving the vehicle
parked with the sliding doors
open, always check that they are
locked into place.
12) Always use this device when
carrying children.
13) The spring-loaded system was
designed for optimum usage.
Accidental knocks or a strong
gust of wind may release the
springs, forcing the doors to
close.14) When closing, shut the right
hand door fully before you close
the left hand door. Never shut the
two doors at the same time.
IMPORTANT
2) Make sure that the left sliding
side door is all closed before
refuelling to prevent damage to
the door and to the sliding locking
system with fuel filler cap open,
activated during refuelling.

SPEEDOMETER
This shows the speed at which the
vehicle is travelling.
REV COUNTER
The rev counter shows the engine
rpm.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection
control system gradually shuts off
the flow of fuel when the engine
is “over-revving” resulting in a
gradual loss of engine power.
When the engine is idling, the rev
counter may indicate a gradual
or sudden increase of the speed.
This behaviour is standard as it
takes place during the activation of
the climate control system or the
fan. It should not be considered as a
fault. In such cases, a slight
increase in engine idle speed helps
to sustain the battery charge.
FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
This shows the amount of fuel left in
the fuel tank.
E tank empty.F tank full (see the instructions
provided in the “Vehicle refuelling”
paragraph).
The warning light on the gauge
comes on to indicate that
approximately 8-10 litres of fuel are
left in the tank.
Do not travel with the fuel tank
almost empty: any gaps in
fuel supply could damage the
catalytic converter.
IMPORTANT The needle will point to
E and warning light A will flash to
indicate a fault in the system.
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have
the system checked.
ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE
INDICATOR
This shows the temperature of the
engine coolant fluid and starts
working when the fluid temperature
exceeds approx. 50°C.
In normal usage, the needle should
hover around the middle of the
scale.
C Low engine coolant temperature.
H High engine coolant temperature.The warning light on the gauge may
light up (and a message on the
multifunction display may appear on
certain versions) to indicate that
the coolant fluid temperature is too
high; in this case, stop the engine
and contact a Fiat Dealership.
10)
IMPORTANT
10) If the needle for the engine
coolant temperature reaches the
red area, stop the engine
immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.

14) The presence of water in the supply circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular engine
operation. If the
warning light switches on (on some versions together with the dedicated message on the
display), contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to have the system bled. If the above indication occurs
immediately after refuelling, water may have entered the tank: turn the engine off immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
15) During regeneration, the fan may be activated.
WARNING
52) Always drive at a speed appropriate to the traffic conditions, the weather and traffic regulations. The engine may be
stopped if the DPF light is on; however, repeated interruption of the regeneration process may result in premature
deterioration of the engine oil. For this reason, always wait until the warning light switches off before stopping the
engine as described above. It is not advisable to complete DPF regeneration with the vehicle stationary.

In the event of vehicle inactivity,
special attention must be paid to the
disconnection of the battery power
supply.
Proceed as follows: detach the
connector A (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.
81)
EMERGENCY
STARTING
In the case of emergency starting,
never connect the negative lead
(–) of the auxiliary battery to the
negative pole C of the vehicle
battery, but rather to either the
dummy pole B or to an
engine/gearbox earth point fig. 145.
82) 83) 84) 85)
WARNING
81) If the battery needs to be
replaced, always contact a Fiat
Dealership. Replace the battery
with a new one of the same type
and specifications.
82) Before opening the bonnet,
make sure that the vehicle is
switched off and the key is in the
OFF position. Please follow the
instructions on the decal near the
front crossmember. It is advisable
to extract the key when there
are other people in the vehicle.
83) The vehicle should always be
evacuated after the key has been
removed or turned to the OFF
position. When refuelling, make
sure that the vehicle is switched
off with the key in the OFF
position.

❒The performance of the parking
assistance system may also be
affected by the position of the
sensors. For example by a change in
the ride setting (caused by the wear
of the shock absorbers, suspension),
changing the tyres, overloading the
vehicle and carrying out specific
tuning operations that require the
vehicle to be lowered.
❒Detection of obstacles in the upper
part of the vehicle (particularly in the
case of vans or chassis cabs) may
not be guaranteed because the
system detects obstacles that could
strike the lower part of the vehicle.
❒The parking sensors work properly
with the swing doors closed.
❒If they are open, they can cause the
system to send false signals: always
close the rear doors.
❒Do not apply stickers to the sensors.
WARNING
97) The sensors must be clean of
mud, dirt, snow and ice in order
for the system to work. Be careful
not to scratch or damage the
sensors while cleaning them.
Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The sensors must be
washed using clean water, with
the addition of car shampoo if
necessary. When using special
washing equipment such as high
pressure jets or steam cleaning,
clean the sensors very quickly
keeping the jet more than 10 cm
away.
98) Parking manoeuvres, however,
are always the driver’s
responsibility. While carrying out
these manoeuvres, always make
sure that no people (especially
children) or animals are in the
area concerned. The parking
sensor is designed to assist
drivers, who must still never allow
their attention to lapse during
potentially dangerous
manoeuvres even if performed at
low speed.
REFUELLING THE
VEHICLE
PETROL ENGINES
Only use unleaded petrol, with an
octane number (R.O.N.) not lower
than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalytic
converter leads to harmful exhaust
emissions, thus contributing to
air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded
petrol, even in small amounts or in
an emergency, as this would
damage the catalytic converter
beyond repair.
DIESEL ENGINES
Operation at low
temperatures
If the outside temperature is very
low, the diesel thickens due to the
formation of paraffin clots with
consequent defective operation of
the fuel supply system.

In order to avoid these problems,
different types of diesel are
distributed according to the season:
summer type, winter type and
arctic type (cold/mountain areas). If
refuelling with diesel fuel whose
specifications are not suitable for the
current temperature, it is advisable
to mix TUTELA DIESEL ART additive
in the proportions shown on the
container. Pour the additive into the
tank before the diesel fuel.
When using or parking the vehicle
for a long time in the mountains
or cold areas, it is advisable to refuel
using locally available diesel fuel.
In this case, it is also advisable
to keep the tank over 50% full.
22)
FILLING THE TANK
To fill the tank completely, top up
twice after the first click of the fuel
supply gun. Further top ups could
cause faults in the fuel supply
system.FUEL TANK PLUG
Opening
1) Open flap A fig. 149, pulling it
outwards, hold cap B still, insert the
ignition key in the lock and turn it
anticlockwise.
2) Turn the cap anticlockwise and
remove it. The cap has a device
C that attaches it to the flap so
it cannot be lost. When refilling,
attach the plug to the flap, as
shown.Closing
1) Fit the cap (complete with key)
and turn it clockwise until it clicks
once or more.
2) Turn the key clockwise and
extract it, then close the flap.
The sealing may cause a slight
pressure increase in the tank. A little
breathing off, while slackening the
plug is absolutely normal.

IMPORTANT
36) The presence of water in the
supply circuit may cause severe
damage to the injection system
and irregular engine operation. If
the
warning light comes on,
go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the system bled.
If this problem is indicated
immediately after refuelling, water
may have entered the fuel tank.
In this case, immediately turn off
the engine and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
BATTERY
The battery is of the “limited
maintenance” type: under normal
conditions of use, the electrolyte
does not need topping up with
distilled water.
It does, however, need to be
checked periodically at a Fiat
Dealership or by specialist personnel
to make sure it is working correctly.
133) 134)
REPLACING THE
BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with
an original spare part with the same
specifications.
If a battery with different
specifications is fitted, the service
intervals given in the “Scheduled
Servicing Plan” will no longer be
valid.
Follow the battery manufacturer's
instructions for maintenance.
