REFUELLING
Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95 conforming to the Eu-
ropean specification EN 228.
Diesel engines: only refuel with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590. Using other products
or mixtures may damage the engine beyond repair and cause the forfeiture of the warranty cover for caused dam-
ages as a consequence.
ENGINE STARTING
Petrol engines: make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch
without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.
Diesel engines: turn the ignition key to MAR and wait for the warning lights
Y(or symbol on display) and mto go off; turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
While working, the catalyst develops a very high temperature. Do not park the car over grass, dry leaves, pine nee-
dles or any other inflammable materials: risk of fire.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The car is fitted with a system that allows continuous diagnosis of the components correlated with emissions to en-
sure better respect for the environment.

OPERATION
Each time the car is started turning the ig-
nition key to MAR, the Fiat CODE sys-
tem control unit sends a recognition code
to the engine control unit to deactivate
the inhibitor.
The code is sent only if the Fiat CODE
system control unit has recognised the
code transmitted from the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to
STOP, the Fiat CODE system deactivates
the functions of the engine electronic con-
trol unit.
If the code has not been recognised cor-
rectly, the instrument panel warning light
Y(or symbol on display) will turn on.
In this case, the key should be moved to
the STOPposition and then back to
MAR; if the lock continues, possibly try
again with the other key provided with the
car. If it is still not possible to start the car
contact a Fiat Dealership.IMPORTANT Every key has its own code,
which must be memorised by the system
control unit. To memorise new keys, up
to a maximum of eight, apply solely to Fi-
at Dealership taking with you the CODE
card and the keys, a personal identity doc-
ument and the car’s ownership docu-
ments. The codes of the keys not provid-
ed during the new memorising procedure
are erased from the memory. This is to
ensure that any lost or stolen keys can no
longer be used to start the car.
The electronic components in-
side the key may be damaged
if the key is submitted to sharp
knocks.
Warning light Y(or symbol on
display) coming on when driving
❒If the warning light Y(or symbol on
display) turns on, this means that the
system is running a self-test (for exam-
ple for a voltage drop).
❒If the warning light Y(or symbol on
display) continues to stay on, contact
a Fiat Dealership.

HOW TO ACTIVATE THE ALARM
With the doors, bonnet and boot shut and
the ignition key in the STOPposition or
with the key removed, point the key with
remote control in the direction of the car,
then press and release the button
Á.
With the exception of certain markets,
the system sounds a “beep” and the doors
are locked.
Engagement of the alarm is preceded by
a self-diagnostic test. If a fault is detected
the system sounds a further warning
“beep” and the display shows the relevant
message (see section “Warning lights and
messages”).
In this case, switch the alarm system off by
pressing button
Ë, check that the doors,
bonnet and tailgate are properly shut, then
switch the alarm on again by pressing but-
ton
Á.
Otherwise, the door, bonnet or tailgate
that is not shut properly will be excluded
from the alarm system control.If the doors, bonnet and boot are shut
correctly and the control signal is repeat-
ed, the system self-diagnostics has de-
tected a system operating fault. It is there-
fore necessary to contact Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT When operating the cen-
tral door locking with the metal insert of
the key, the alarm is not activated.
IMPORTANT The electronic alarm is built
in compliance with the law and regulations
of the different countries.HOW TO DEACTIVATE
THE ALARM
Press button
Ëof the key with remote
control.
The system will react as follows (with the
exception of certain markets):
❒two brief flashes of the direction indi-
cators;
❒two brief “beeps”;
❒door unlocking.
IMPORTANT Operating the central door
locking with the metal insert of the key
will not deactivate the alarm.

VOLUME-SENSING/
ANTI-LIFT PROTECTION
To ensure correct operation of the pro-
tection, it is advisable to fully close the side
windows and sun-roof (for versions/ mar-
kets, where provided).
If necessary, the function may be turned
off (e.g. if animals are left in the car) by
pressing key A-fig. 15, located on the
front courtesy light before activating the
alarm.
Function deactivation is indicated by the
led located on the key flashing for a few
seconds. If the volume-sensing/anti-lift
protection is turned off, this must be re-
peated whenever the instrument panel is
turned off.INDICATIONS OF ATTEMPTS
TO BREAK IN
Any attempt to break in is indicated by
warning light
Y(or symbol on display)
on the instrument panel with the relevant
message on the display (see section
“Warning lights and messages”).HOW TO CUT OFF
THE ALARM SYSTEM
To deactivate the alarm system com-
pletely (for instance during prolonged in-
activity of the car) simply lock the car
turning the metal insert of the key with re-
mote control in the lock.
IMPORTANT To cut-out the electronic
alarm if remote control batteries are
down or the system is failing, fit the key
into the ignition switch and turn it to
MAR.

SPEEDOMETER fig. 17
It shows the car speed.
DASHBOARD LIGHTING
ADJUSTMENT (Brightness sensor)
(versions Sport with reconfigurable
multifunction display)
The versions Sport with reconfigurable
multifunction Display are provided with
a brightness sensor (located inside the
tachometer), able to detect the environ-
ment light conditions and, depending on
the measurement, to adjust the operat-
ing mode of the dashboard.
The instrument operates as follows:
❒in “daylight” mode, the display can be
set on 8 different levels, the dashboard
graphics are turned off and all the in-
dexes are fully lighted and cannot be
adjusted;
❒in “night” mode, the display, the graph-
ics and the indexes can be set on 8 dif-
ferent levels. The brightness of the bi-
zone automatic climate control system
display and of the car radio display is
accordingly adjusted.REV. COUNTER fig. 18
Rev counter shows engine rpm.
On diesel versions the rev counter end
scale value is 6000 rpm.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection
control system gradually shuts off the flow
of fuel when the engine is “over-revving”
resulting in a gradual loss of engine pow-
er.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter
may indicate a gradual or sudden speed in-
crease. This is normal as it takes place dur-
ing normal operation, for example when
activating the climate control system or
the fan. In particular a slow change in the
speed preserves the battery charge.
fig. 18F0Q0607mfig. 17F0Q0606m
The brightness level depends on the set-
tings previously set by means of the Setup
Menu of the reconfigurable multifunctional
display (see “Dimmer” at paragraph “Re-
configurable multifunctional display”).
When travelling, the graphics lighting may
turn on if the lighting in the passenger
compartment changes from “daylight” to
“night” condition (e.g. when entering a
tunnel).

id temperature is too high; in this case,
stop the engine and contact a Fiat Deal-
ership. FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
This shows the amount of fuel left in the
fuel tank.
The reserve warning light A-fig. 19turns

E- tank empty.
F- tank full (see contents of “At the filling
station” paragraph in this chapter).
Do not travel with the tank almost emp-
ty because the catalytic converter could
become damaged.

system is failing. In this event contact Fiat
Dealership to have the system checked.
