phone FIAT 500E 2016 2.G User Guide

This guide has been prepared to help you get quickly acquainted
with your new FIAT® vehicle and to provide a convenient reference
source for common questions. However, it is not a substitute for your
Owner’s Manual.
For complete operational instructions, maintenance procedures and
important safety messages, please consult your Owner’s Manual,
Navigation/Uconnect Manuals and other Warning Labels in your vehicle.
Not all features shown in this guide may apply to your vehicle. For
additional information on accessories to help personalize your vehicle,
visit www.mopar.com (U.S.), www.mopar.ca (Canada) or your
local FIAT
® Dealer.
DRIVING AND ALCOHOL: Drunken driving is one of the most frequent
causes of collisions. Your driving ability can be seriously impaired with
blood alcohol levels far below the legal minimum. If you are drinking,
don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab, a friend,
or use public transportation.
If you are the first registered retail owner of your
vehicle, you may obtain a complimentary printed copy
of the Owner’s Manual, Navigation/Uconnect Manuals or
Warranty Booklet by calling 1-888-242-6342 (U.S.) or
1-800-387-1143 (Canada) or by contacting your dealer.
Driving after drinking can lead to a collision. Your perceptions are less
sharp, your reflexes are slower, and your judgment is impaired when you
have been drinking. Never drink and then drive.
WARNING
2111090_16c_500e_UG_102715.indd 210/27/15 2:12 PM
The driver’s primary responsibility is the safe operation of the
vehicle. Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle
control, resulting in a collision and personal injury. FCA US LLC
strongly recommends that the driver use extreme caution when
using any device or feature that may take their attention off the
road. Use of any electrical devices, such as cellular phones,
computers, portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices,
by the driver while the vehicle is moving is dangerous and could
lead to a serious collision. Texting while driving is also dangerous
and should never be done while the vehicle is moving. If you find
yourself unable to devote your full attention to vehicle operation,
pull off the road to a safe location and stop your vehicle. Some
states or provinces prohibit the use of cellular telephones or
texting while driving. It is always the driver’s responsibility to
comply with all local laws.
IMPORTANT: This User Guide is intended to familiarize you with
the important features of your vehicle. The DVD enclosed
contains your Owner’s Manual, Navigation/Uconnect Manuals,
Warranty Booklets, Tire Warranty and Roadside Assistance (new
vehicles purchased in the U.S.) or Roadside Assistance (new
vehicles purchased in Canada) in electronic format. We hope you
find it useful. U.S. residents can purchase replacement '9' kits
by visiting www.techauthority.com and Canadian residents
can purchase replacement DVD kits by calling 1-800-387-1143 .

WARNING!
•Pedals that cannot move freely can cause loss of vehicle control and increase the
risk of serious personal injury.
•Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver foot well while the ve-
hicle is moving.Objects can become trapped under the brake pedal and accelera-
tor pedal causing a loss of vehicle control.
•Failure to properly follow floor mat installation or mounting can cause interference
with the brake pedal and accelerator pedal operation causing loss of control of
the vehicle.
•Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.Al-
lowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of rea-
sons.A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured.Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the transmission gear se-
lector.
•Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil-
dren.A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
•Never use the ‘PARK’ position as a substitute for the parking brake.Always apply
the parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement and pos-
sible injury or damage.
•Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
USE OF AFTERMARKET PRODUCTS (ELECTRONICS)
The use of aftermarket devices including cell phones, MP3 players, GPS systems, or char-
gers may affect the performance of on-board wireless features including Keyless Enter-
N-Go and Remote Start range.If you are experiencing difficulties with any of your wire-
less features, try disconnecting your aftermarket devices to see if the situation improves.If
your symptoms persist, please see an authorized dealer.
When it comes to service, remember that your authorized dealer knows your vehicle
best, has factory-trained technicians and genuine MOPAR® parts, and cares about your
satisfaction.

EXTENDING YOUR DRIVING RANGE PER CHARGE
•A little knowledge will go a long way to extend your driving range on the 500e.First
and foremost understand that the drive system and cabin temperature management
features use the most energy from the high voltage battery.Reducing energy draw
from these features are the easiest and most effective way to extend driving range.
•Just like a conventional vehicle, 500e likes to keep things smooth and steady for most
efficient operation.When driving, avoid aggressive driving styles and high speeds for
extended times.When practical, choose surface streets over the highway, work to
maintain a steady speed to extend range.
•The 500e uses high voltage components to heat and cool the cabin, so a little aware-
ness can go a long way to extend range.When using automatic climate control, con-
sider setting temperatures a few degrees higher or lower during hot and cold days.If
your 500e has been soaking in hot or cold temperatures for an extended period, it is
recommended that the car be preconditioned via the Uconnect Access smartphone
app while still plugged into a charging source.This will allow 500e to use external
power to establish a comfortable cabin temperature before the drive, and allow the
battery to maintain the temperature using significantly less energy during the drive.
Additional Tips:
•Keep tires properly inflated
•Avoid carrying nonessential cargo
•Be mindful of adding external accessories that may increase aerodynamic drag
•Perform all scheduled maintenance at recommended intervals
Driving Behavior Gauge
To help the driver extend the driving range of the high voltage battery your vehicle is
equipped with a Driving Behavior Gauge.The Driving Behavior Gauge is located on the
right side of the instrument cluster and displays three driving ranges:
Power
The Driving Behavior Gauge will move into
the Power range when under acceleration.
ECO
The Driving Behavior Gauge will move into
the ECO range when you are maximizing
the driving range of the high voltage bat-
tery.
Charge
The Driving Behavior Gauge will move into
the Charge range when battery regenera-
tion is active (either coasting or braking).

CYBERSECURITY
Your vehicle may be a connected vehicle and may be equipped with both wired and
wireless networks.These networks allow your vehicle to send and receive information.
This information allows systems and features in your vehicle to function properly.
Your vehicle may be equipped with certain security features to reduce the risk of unau-
thorized and unlawful access to vehicle systems and wireless communications.Vehicle soft-
ware technology continues to evolve over time and FCA US LLC, working with its suppli-
ers, evaluates and takes appropriate steps as needed.Similar to a computer or other
devices, your vehicle may require software updates to improve the usability and perfor-
mance of your systems or to reduce the potential risk of unauthorized and unlawful ac-
cess to your vehicle systems.
The risk of unauthorized and unlawful access to your vehicle systems may still exist, even
if the most recent version of vehicle software (such as Uconnect software) is installed.
WARNING!
•It is not possible to know or to predict all of the possible outcomes if your vehi-
cle’s systems are breached.It may be possible that vehicle systems, including safety
related systems, could be impaired or a loss of vehicle control could occur that
may result in an accident involving serious injury or death.
•ONLY insert media (e.g., USB, SD card, or CD) into your vehicle if it came from a
trusted source.Media of unknown origin could possibly contain malicious software,
and if installed in your vehicle, it may increase the possibility for vehicle systems to
be breached.
•As always, if you experience unusual vehicle behavior, take your vehicle to your
nearest authorized dealer immediately.
NOTE:
•FCA or your dealer may contact you directly regarding software updates.
•To help further improve vehicle security and minimize the potential risk of a security
breach, vehicle owners should:
•Routinely check www.driveuconnect.com/software-update to learn about available
Uconnect software updates.
•Only connect and use trusted media devices (e.g.personal mobile phones, USBs,
CDs).
