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.
ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER
If after buying the vehicle, you decide to install electrical accessories that require a permanent electrical supply (e.g. radio,
satellite anti-theft system, etc.) or accessories that in any case burden the electrical supply, contact a Fiat Dealership, whose
personnel will check whether the vehicles's electrical system is able to withstand the load required, or whether it needs to be
integrated with a more powerful battery.
IMPORTANT Take care when fitting additional spoilers, alloy wheels or non-standard wheel hubs: they could reduce the
ventilation of the brakes and affect efficiency under sharp, repeated braking or on long descents. Make sure that nothing
obstructs the pedal stroke (mats, etc.).
INSTALLING ELECTRICAL / ELECTRONIC DEVICES
Electrical and electronic devices installed after buying the vehicle in the context of after-sales service must carry the following
label: FCA Italy S.p.A. authorises the installation of transceivers provided that installation is carried out at a specialised
centre, in a workmanlike fashion and in compliance with manufacturer's specifications.
Traffic police may not allow the vehicle on the road if devices have been installed which modify the features of the vehicle. This
may also cause invalidation of warranty in relation to faults caused by the change either directly or indirectly related to it.
FCA Italy S.p.A. shall not be liable for damage caused by the installation of accessories either not supplied or recommended by
FCA Italy S.p.A. and not installed in compliance with the provided instructions.
RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND MOBILE PHONES
Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones, CB radios, amateur radio etc.) cannot be used inside the vehicle unless a
separate aerial is mounted externally. Transmission and reception of these devices may be affected by the shielding effect of the
vehicle body. As far as the use of EC-approved mobile phones is concerned (GSM, GPRS, UMTS, LTE), follow the usage
instructions provided by the mobile phone Manufacturer. The use of these devices inside the passenger compartment (without
an external aerial) may cause the electrical systems to malfunction. This could compromise the safety of the vehicle in addition
to constituting a potential hazard for passengers' health. If mobile phones/laptops/smartphones/tablets are inside the vehicle
and/or close to the electronic key, a reduced performance of the Passive Entry/Keyless Entry-N-Go system may occur.

AIR PURIFIER
An air filter has been incorporated into
this air conditioner so that dirt and dust
are cleaned from the air.
Replace the air filter periodically as its
ability to clean the air will be reduced as
it collects pollen and dirt.
NOTE Operation in certain conditions
such as driving on a dusty road and
frequent use of the air conditioner can
lead to reduction of service life of the
filter. When you feel that the airflow is
lower than normal or when the
windscreen or windows start to fog up
easily, replace the air filter. We
recommend you to have it checked.

ECONOMICAL
DRIVING
For economical driving, there are some
technical requirements that have to be
met. The prerequisite for low fuel
consumption is a properly adjusted
engine. In order to achieve longer life of
the vehicle and the most economical
operation, we recommend you to have
the vehicle checked at regular intervals
in accordance with the service
standards.
Fuel economy and generation of
exhaust gas and noise are highly
influenced by personal driving habits as
well as the particular operating
conditions. The following points should
be observed in order to minimize wear
of brakes, tyres and engine as well as
to reduce environmental pollution.
Starting the engine
Avoid sudden acceleration and sudden
starts, as they will increase fuel
consumption.
Shifting
Shift only at an appropriate speed and
engine speed. Always use the highest
shift position possible.
The transfer shift lever or the drive
modeselector should be set to “2H”
when driving 4WD vehicles on normal
roads and express ways to obtain best
possible fuel economy.City traffic
Frequent starting and stopping
increases the average fuel
consumption. Use roads with smooth
traffic flow whenever possible. When
driving on congested roads, avoid use
of a low shift position at high engine
speeds.
Idling
The vehicle consumes fuel even during
idling. Avoid extended idling whenever
possible.
Speed
At higher the vehicle speed, more fuel is
consumed. Avoid driving at full speed.
Even a slight release of the accelerator
pedal will save a significant amount of
fuel.
Tyre inflation pressure
Check the tyre inflation pressures at
regular intervals. Low tyre inflation
pressure increases road resistance and
fuel consumption. In addition, low tyre
pressures adversely affect tyre wear
and driving stability.Cargo loads
Do not drive with unnecessary articles
in the luggage compartment. Especially
during city driving where frequent
starting and stopping is necessary, the
increased weight of the vehicle will
greatly affect fuel consumption. Also
avoid driving with unnecessary luggage
or carriers, etc., on the roof; the
increased air resistance will increase
fuel consumption.
Cold engine starting
Starting of a cold engine consumes
more fuel. Unnecessary fuel
consumption is also caused by keeping
a hot engine running. After the engine is
started, commence driving as soon as
possible.
Cooler or air conditioning
The use of the air conditioner will
increase the fuel consumption.

Operation of the A/T
103) 104) 105) 106) 107) 108)
Passing acceleration
To gain extra acceleration in “D” (DRIVE)
position, push the accelerator to the
floor. The A/T will automatically
downshift.
In sport mode, downshifts do not take
place when the accelerator is
depressed all the way to the floor.
Waiting
For short waiting periods, such as at
traffic signals the vehicle can be left in
gear and held stationary with the
service brake. For longer waiting
periods with the engine running, place
the selector lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position and apply the parking brake,
while holding the vehicle stationary with
the service brake.
109)
Parking
To park the vehicle, first bring it to a
complete stop, fully engage the parking
brake, and then move the selector lever
to the “P” (PARK) position.
If you are going to leave the vehicle
unattended, always switch off the
engine and carry the key.
On a slope, be sure to apply the
parking brake before moving the
selector lever to the “P” (PARK)
position. If you move the selector lever
to the “P” (PARK) position beforeapplying the parking brake, it may be
difficult to disengage the selector lever
from the “P” (PARK) position when next
you drive the vehicle, requiring
application of a strong force to the
selector lever to move from the “P”
(PARK) position.
When the A/T makes no speed
change
If the transmission does not change
speeds while driving, or your vehicle
does not pick up enough speed when
starting on an uphill slope, it may be
that there is something unusual
happening in the transmission, causing
a safety device to activate. Have your
vehicle checked by a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible.
1. If your vehicle has difficulty moving
uphill, shift the selector lever into 2nd
gear of the sports mode. This method
might not work depending on the
transmission malfunction.
2. Once the vehicle is moving on a level
road, move the selector lever back to
“D” (DRIVE).
When the selector lever position display
in the instrument panel blinks, it means
that there is an abnormal condition in
the transmission. Refer to “When the
selector lever position display blinks”.
IMPORTANT
92)Always depress the brake pedal when
shifting the selector lever into a gear from
the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
Never put your foot on the accelerator
pedal while shifting the selector lever from
the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
93)Never shift into the “P” (PARK) or “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in
motion to avoid a transmission damage.
94)Never move the selector lever to the
“N” (NEUTRAL) position while driving. A
serious accident could occur since you
could accidentally move the lever into the
“P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position or
you will lose engine braking.
95)On a gradient, the engine should be
started in the “P” (PARK) position, not in the
“N” (NEUTRAL) position.
96)To prevent rolling, always keep your
foot on the brake pedal when the vehicle is
in “N” (NEUTRAL) position, or when shifting
into or out of “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
97)To prevent transmission damage, never
shift into the “D” (DRIVE) position from the
“R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is
in motion.
98)In sports mode, the driver must
execute upward shifts in accordance with
prevailing road conditions, taking care to
keep the engine speed below the red zone.
99)Repeated continuous operation of the
selector lever or the shift paddles will
continuously switch shift position.
