each time the key is turned to MAR-ON
or, for versions/markets, where
provided, every 200 km (or equivalent
value in miles). Below this threshold
servicing indications are more frequent.The display will be in km or miles
according to the unit of measurement
set. When the next scheduled servicing
is approaching, the word “Service”
will appear on the display, followed by
the number of kilometres/miles or

WARNING
44)Warning lightwill blink to indicate possible faults of the warning light. In this case, thewarning light may not indicate a possible
problem with the airbag restraint system. Contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked
Warning light What it means
yellowSTART&STOP SYSTEM OFF
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The deactivation of the Start&Stop system is indicated by the lighting of the warning light or the symbol on
the display along with a dedicated message on the display on some versions.
yellowiTPMS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Tyre pressure low
The warning light switches on constantly to indicate that the tyre pressure is lower than the recommended
value, in order to guarantee long tyre life and low fuel consumption, or to indicate a slow loss of pressure.
In this way the iTPMS warns the driver that one or more tyres may be flat and probably punctured. In this
case it is advisable to restore the correct pressure value. Once the normal operating conditions of the
vehicle are restored, carry out the Tyre reset procedure.
IMPORTANT Do not continue driving with one or more flat tyres as handling may be compromised. Stop
the vehicle, avoiding sharp braking and steering.
iTPMS failure/iTPMS temporarily deactivated
The warning light flashes for about 75 seconds and then stays on constantly (along with a dedicated
message on the display) to indicate that the system is temporarily deactivated or faulty. The system goes
back to normal operation when the operating conditions allow it. If this is not the case, carry out the Tyre
reset procedure after restoring the normal operating conditions.
If the malfunction warning persists, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

DESCRIPTION
The vehicle can be equipped with the
iTPMS (indirect Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System) which monitors the
tyre inflation status thanks to wheel
speed sensors.
To access the iTPMS screens ( fig. 51 -
fig. 52), press the TRIP button.
The fig. 52 screen will be displayed only
if one or more tyres are flat.
Correct tyre pressure (versions with
colour display)
If pressure of all the tyres corresponds
to the correct value, the display shows
the following screen fig. 51.
Low tyre pressure
The system warns the driver if one or
more tyres are flat by switching on
the
warning light on the instrument
panel. Furthermore, the display will
show “KO” beside the tyres fig. 52
along with a warning message.RESET PROCEDURE
The iTPMS needs an initial "self-
learning" phase (with length depending
on the driving style and road conditions:
optimal conditions being driving on a
straight road at 80 km/h for at least 20
minutes) which starts when the Reset
procedure is carried out.
The Reset procedure must be carried
out:
each time tyre pressure is modified;
when even only one tyre is changed;
when tyres are rotated/inverted;
when the space-saver wheel is
fitted.
Before carrying out the RESET
procedure, inflate the tyres to the rated
pressure values specified in the inflation
pressure table (see "Wheels" paragraph
in the "Technical specifications"
chapter).
If the RESET procedure is not carried
out, in all above cases, the
warning
light may give false indications on
one or more tyres.
To carry out the RESET procedure, with
the car stopped and the ignition key
at MAR, use the setup menu (see the
description of the "Display" paragraph).
At the end of the Reset procedure,
the display will show the message
"Reset saved", indicating that
self-learning has started.
If the iTPMS self-learning is not
correctly executed, the message is not
displayed.
OPERATING CONDITIONS
The system is active for speeds above
15 km/h.
In a few situations such as sporty
driving, particular conditions of the road
surface (e.g. icy, snowy, unsurfaced
roads...) the signalling may be delayed
or partial in detecting the contemporary
deflation of more than one tyre.
