Replacing standard tyres
with winter tyres and vice
versa involves T.P.M.S. system set-up
that shall be performed at Fiat Deal-
erships only.
The T.P.M.S. system re-
quires special equipment.
Consult Fiat Dealership to know
what type of accessories are com-
patible with the system (wheels,
wheel caps, etc.). Using other acces-
sories could cause system malfunc-
tioning.Tyre pressure could change
according to outside tem-
perature. For this reason the T.P.M.S.
system could temporarily indicate low
tyre pressure. In this event check pres-
sure with cold tyres and restore prop-
er inflation values if required.
If the car is fitted with
T.P.M.S. system, when
changing a tyre, change also the rub-
ber seal of the valve. Contact a Fiat
Dealership.If the car is fitted with
T.P.M.S. system, tyre and/or
rim removal and refitting operations
involve special precautions; to pre-
vent damages or wrong sensor refit-
ting, contact Fiat Dealership to have
tyre and/or rim changed.
Strong radio-frequency nois-
es could inhibit the regular
operation of the T.P.M.S. system.
This condition will be indicated by the
turning on of warning light nor sym-
bol on the instrument panel, togeth-
er with the message on the display.
Such indication will disappear auto-
matically as soon as radio-frequency
noises will stop to disturb the system.

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
(DPF) (where provided)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechan-
ical filter, integral with the exhaust system,
that physically traps particulate present
in the exhaust gases of Diesel engines.
The diesel particular filter has been adopt-
ed to eliminate almost totally particulates
in compliance with current / future law
regulations.
During normal use of the car, the engine
control unit records a set of data (e.g.:
travel time, type of route, temperatures,
etc.) and it will then calculate how much
particulates has been trapped by the filter.
During normal service the
catalyst and the diesel par-
ticulate filter (DPF) reach high tem-
peratures. Do not therefore park the
car over inflammable materials (grass,
dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire
hazard.
WARNING
Diesel Particulate Filter clogged
If the warning light hon the instru-
ment panel turns on (together with the
message on the display) refer to section
“Warning lights and messages”. Since this filter physically traps particulates,
it shall be cleaned (reclaimed) at regular
intervals by burning carbon particles. Re-
claiming procedure is controlled auto-
matically by the engine control unit ac-
cording to the filter conditions and the
conditions of use of the car.
During reclaiming the following phenom-
ena could take place: idling slight increase,
fan activation, slight smoke increase, high
exhaust temperatures. These situations
shall not be considered as faults and they
do not affect car performance and envi-
ronment.

For permanent deactivation, contact Fiat
Dealership.With multifunction display, the S.B.R. sys-
tem can only be reset at Fiat Dealership.

If the car has been stolen or
an attempt to steal it has
been made, if it has been subjected to
vandals or floods, have the air bag
system checked by Fiat Dealership.

tween your lips; injury may result in
the event of the air bag being trig-
gered.

event air bags or pretensioners could
not trigger in case of impact or, in a
minor number of cases, they could
trigger accidentally. Contact Fiat
Dealership immediately to have the
system checked.

STARTING PROCEDURE FOR
DIESEL VERSIONS
Proceed as follows:
❒ Ensure that the handbrake is up;
❒set the gear lever to neutral;
❒turn the ignition key to MAR. The
warning lights
mand Y(or the sym-
bol on display) on the instrument pan-
el will turn on;
❒wait for the warning lights Y(or the
symbol on display) and mto turn off.
The hotter the engine is, the quicker
this will happen;
❒press the clutch pedal down to the
floor without touching the accelerator;
❒turn the ignition key to AVVas soon
as warning light mturns off. If you
wait too long you will lose the benefit
of the work done by the glow plugs. Re-
lease the key as soon as the engine
starts.IMPORTANT Never leave the ignition key
at MARwhen the engine is off.
The warning light
mwill
flash for 60 seconds at start-
up or during prolonged crank-
ing to signal a fault in the glow
plug heating system. You can use the
car as usual if the engine starts but you
should contact a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible.
IMPORTANT With cold engine, the ac-
celerator pedal shall be completely re-
leased while turning the ignition key to
AVV.
If the engine does not start at the first at-
tempt, return the ignition key to STOP
before repeating starting.
If, when the ignition key is at MAR, warn-
ing light
Yon the instrument panel (or
the symbol on display) stays on, turn the
key to STOPand then back to MAR; if
the warning light remains on, try with the
other keys provided with the car.
If you still cannot start the engine, contact
Fiat Dealership.

STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition to STOPwhile the en-
gine is idling.
IMPORTANT After a taxing drive, you
should allow the engine to “catch its
breath” before turning it off by letting it
idle to allow the temperature in the en-
gine compartment to fall.
Never bump start the engine
by pushing, towing or coasting
downhill as this could cause
fuel to flow into the catalytic
exhaust system and damage it beyond
repair.
Remember that the servo-
brake and power steering
are not operational until the engine
has been started, therefore much ef-
fort than usual is required on the
brake pedal and steering wheel.
WARNING
A quick burst on the acceler-
ator before turning off the en-
gine serves absolutely no prac-
tical purpose, it wastes fuel
and is damaging especially to tur-
bocharged engines.
HOW TO WARM UP THE
ENGINE AFTER IT HAS
JUST STARTED
(petrol and diesel engines)
Proceed as follows:
❒ Drive off slowly, letting the engine turn
at medium revs. Do not accelerate
abruptly;
❒ Do not drive at full performance for the
initial kilometres. Wait until the coolant
temperature gauge starts moving.
EMERGENCY START-UP
If the instrument panel warning light
Y(or the symbol on display) stays on with
fixed light, contact Fiat Dealership.
