WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
GENERAL WARNINGS
Warning lights are accompanied by a specific message
and/or sound when applicable. These indications are brief
and precautionary and as such must not be considered as
exhaustive and/or alternative to the information contained
in the Owner’s Handbook, which you are recommended
to read carefully in all cases. Always refer to the informa-
tion in this chapter in the event of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT The fault indicators appearing on the dis-
play are divided into two categories: very serious and less
serious failures.
Serious failures prompt a prolonged cycle of signals.
Less serious failures prompt a shorter cycle of signals.
Press MENU ESC to stop the warning cycle in both cas-
es. Warning lights on the instrument panel will stay on un-
til the cause of the failure is eliminated.
For messages relevant to the versions equipped with
a Dualogic gearbox, see the attached Supplement.

sage.

Degraded engine oil should be replaced as
soon as possible after the warning light
comes on, and never more than 500 km after it
first comes on.
Failure to change the oil within the first 1000 km
may result in severe damage to the engine and in-
validate the warranty. Remember that when the
warning light comes on, it does not mean that the
level of engine oil is low, so if the light flashes you
do not need to top up the engine oil.
WARNING
DOOR/BOOT/BONNET OPEN (red)
On certain versions, the warning light turns on
when one or more doors or the boot are not
properly closed.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions. You
will hear a warning sound if a door is open and the car is
moving.
´
DUALDRIVE ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING FAILURE (red)
(for versions/markets where provided)
This warning light comes on when the ignition key
is turned to MAR, but it should go off after a few sec-
onds.
If the warning light stays on, you will not get the benefit
from the electric power steering and the effort needed
to turn the wheel will be greatly increased, although it will
still be possible to steer the car. Contact a Fiat Dealership.
On some versions the display shows the associated mes-
sage.
g
Note that engine oil degrades faster under the following
circumstances:
– use of the vehicle mainly for city driving, requiring more
frequent regeneration of the DPF
– use of the vehicle for short drives, in which the engine
does not have time to reach its regular operating tem-
perature
– repeated interruption of the regeneration process, sig-
nalled by the DPF warning light coming on.

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 ser-
vice intervals given in the “Scheduled Servicing Plan” will
no longer be valid.
For battery maintenance, you should therefore refer to
the instructions provided by the battery manufacturer.

Incorrect assembly of electric and electronic
devices may cause severe damage to your
car. Go to a Fiat Dealership if you want to
install accessories (alarms, mobile phone, etc.): they
will suggest the most suitable devices and advise you
if a higher capacity battery needs to be installed.
Batteries contain substances that are very
harmful to the environment. It is advisable
to have the battery changed by a Fiat Deal-
ership, where it will be disposed of properly and in
accordance with the law.
If the vehicle must remain unused for
a long time at very low temperatures, re-
move the battery and take it to a warm place to
avoid freezing.
WARNING
If you have to perform any operation on
the battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with special goggles.
WARNING
USEFUL ADVICE FOR EXTENDING
THE LIFE OF YOUR BATTERY
To avoid draining your battery and make it last longer, fol-
low these instructions closely:
❒when you park the car, ensure that the doors, boot and
bonnet are closed properly to prevent the ceiling cour-
tesy lights from staying on;
❒turn off the ceiling lights, although the car does have
an automatic system for switching off internal lights;
❒do not leave devices (e.g. sound system, hazard lights,
etc.) switched on for a long time when the engine is not
running;
❒before performing any operation on the electrical sys-
tem, disconnect the negative battery cable;
❒ make sure battery terminals are fully tightened.
