DEVICEThis allows the space in front of the
vehicle to be lit for a set time.
Activation: with the ignition key turned
to STOP or removed, pull the stalk
towards the steering wheel within
2 minutes from when the engine is
turned off.
Each time the stalk is moved, the lights
stay on for an extra 30 seconds up to
a maximum of 210 seconds; then
the lights are switched off automatically.
Also, each time the stalk is operated,
the
warning light on the
instrument panel switches on. The
display shows a message and the time
set for the function.
Thewarning light comes on when
the stalk is first moved and stays on
until the function is automatically
deactivated. Each movement of the
stalk only increases the amount of time
the lights stay on.
Deactivation: keep the stalk pulled
towards the steering wheel for more
than two seconds.
WARNING
20)The daytime running lights are an
alternative to the dipped beam headlights
for driving in countries where it is
compulsory to have lights on during the
day; where it is not compulsory, the use of
daytime running lights is permitted.
21)Daytime running lights cannot replace
dipped beam headlights when driving at
night or through tunnels. The use of
daytime running lights is governed by the
highway code of the country in which
you are driving. Comply with legal
requirements.

IMPORTANT The Dualdrive electric
power steering has an electronic
damping effect while approaching the
end of stroke. In some manoeuvring
conditions, the steering wheel might
rotate a bit before touching its
mechanical stop. This behaviour is
standard as it takes place to prevent
strong impacts on the mechanical
components inside the device.POWER STEERING
ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
33) 34)
Activation/deactivation: press the fig.
46 button.
The activation of the function is
signalled by the switching on of the
LED located on the button and by the
displaying of the word CITY on the
instrument panel or, depending on the
version, on the display.When the power steering is on, the
steering wheel effort is lighter, making
parking easier: therefore, this function is
particularly useful for driving in city
centres.
WARNING
33)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft
device) that could adversely affect
performance and safety, invalidate the
warranty and also result in non-compliance
of the vehicle with type-approval
requirements.
34)Before performing any maintenance
operations, always turn off the engine and
remove the key from the ignition to lock the
steering column (especially when the car
wheels are not touching the ground). If this
is not possible (for example if the key
needs to be turned to MAR or the engine
must be running), remove the main fuse
that protects the electric power steering.

INTRODUCTIONThe LPG version features two fuel
supply systems: one for petrol and one
for LPG.PASSIVE SAFETY/ACTIVE
SAFETYAlthough the LPG system has
numerous safety features, it is advisable
to proceed as follows every time the
vehicle is not in use for a long period or
moved in an emergency as a result of
a breakdown or accident:
❒unscrew the fixing devices A fig. 47,
then remove the cover B;
❒close the LPG cock by rotating the
ring nut C fig. 48 clockwise;
❒refit the cover and retighten the
fastening devices.

LPG TANKThe car has a (pressurised) tank A fig.
49 for collecting LPG in a liquid state. It
is located in the spare wheel
compartment with suitable protection.LPG tank certificationThe LPG tank is certified in accordance
with the regulations in force.In Italy, the tank has a life of 10 years
starting from the vehicle registration
date. If the vehicle has been registered
in a country other than Italy, the
duration and the testing/inspection
procedures of the LPG tank can vary
depending on the national laws of that
country. In any case, when the time limit
in the individual country has run out,
contact a Fiat Dealership to have the
tank replaced.
SELECTION OF
PETROL/LPG SUPPLY
TYPEThe (petrol/LPG switch) button A fig. 50
allows drivers to select petrol or LPG
operation.
If, during LPG operation, the same runs
out, the vehicle switches to petrol
automatically and all the bars of the
digital gauge on the display switch off,
next to the LPG warning. This condition
persists until the next LPG refuelling.The engine always starts up on petrol,
with automatic switching to LPG when
the best conditions are achieved
(engine water temperature, minimum
engine rpm limit) for switching to LPG.
SUPPLIES
LPGMaximum refuelling capacity (reserve
included): 38.4 litres. The figure already
takes into account the 80% tank filling
limit and the residual fluid required
for correct priming and it is the
maximum permitted capacity. In
addition, after different refuelling
processes, this figure could vary due to
differences between the network pump
supply pressures, pumps having
different supply/locking features, tank
not completely run out of fuel.

SELECTION OF
PETROL/METHANE
SUPPLY TYPEThe engine normally runs on methane
except during starting, when it runs
on petrol. Switching to methane is
automatic.
If you want to run on petrol, press
button A fig. 53: this operation is
allowed both with car at a standstill and
engine running and also while driving.
The switching on of the LED located on
the button and of the green warning
light
on the instrument panel
indicates that the switching request has
taken place correctly.
To guarantee switching in full safety, the
actual change to the chosen fuel
system takes place depending on the
car usage conditions; it may not
therefore be immediate.In addition, when starting at outside
temperatures below approximately
−10°C, the switching times from petrol
to methane increase to allow the
pressure regulator/reduction unit to
heat up.
WARNING
38)The car is equipped with a high-
pressure methane system designed to
operate at 200 rated bar. It is dangerous to
force the system to run at higher
pressures. When towing or lifting the car,
follow the instructions in the main
handbook under the paragraph on "Towing
the car" to prevent damage to the
methane system parts. If there is a
problem with the methane system, only
contact a Fiat Dealership. Do not modify
configuration or components of the
methane system; they have been designed
exclusively for this car. The use of other
components or materials could cause
malfunctions and reduce safety.
39)In the case of painting in an oven, the
cylinders should be removed from the
vehicle and refitted later by a Fiat
Dealership. Although the methane system
has numerous safety features, it is
advisable to close the manual cocks for the
cylinders every time the vehicle is not in
use for a long period, transported on other
transport means or moved in an
emergency as a result of a breakdown or
accident.
40)Do not switch between the two
operating modes whilst starting the engine.41)If gas is smelled, switch from methane
operation to petrol operation and
immediately go to a Fiat Dealership to have
the vehicle checked and possible system
faults excluded.
WARNING
23)If, during methane operation, the same
runs out, the vehicle switches to petrol
automatically and all the bars of the digital
gauge on the display switch off, next to
the CNG warning. This displaying remains
until the next methane refuelling.
24)Regardless of the last fuel system
used, at the following engine starting, after
the initial petrol stage, the system will
automatically switch to methane.
25)When switching from petrol to methane
is requested and when starting the engine,
a metal noise is heard from the valves
which pressurise the circuit. As a result of
the switching logic described above, the
delay between the ticking of the valve and
the switching off of the green warning
light
is entirely normal.

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGESIMPORTANT The warning light switches on together with a dedicated message and/or acoustic signal when applicable. These
indications are indicative and precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or alternative to the
information contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. Always refer to the
information in this chapter in the event of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT The failure indicators appearing on the display are divided into two categories: very serious and less serious faults.
Serious faults are indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious faults are indicated by a warning
"cycle" with a shorter duration. The display cycle of both categories can be interrupted. The instrument panel warning light will
stay on until the cause of the failure is eliminated.WARNING LIGHTS ON INSTRUMENT PANELRed warning lights
Warning light What it means
LOW BRAKE FLUID/HANDBRAKE ENGAGED
Low brake fluid level
The warning light switches on when the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level, possibly
due to a leak in the circuit. On some versions, a message is displayed along with a symbol. Restore the
brake fluid level, then check that the warning light has switched off. If the warning light stays on, contact a
Fiat Dealership.
Handbrake engaged
The warning light (or symbol on the display) switches on when the handbrake is engaged. If the vehicle is
moving the buzzer will also sound. Release the handbrake, then check that the warning light has switched
off. If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT If the warning light comes on when the vehicle is in motion, check that the handbrake is not
on.
