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 .
