for the engine to cool down, then slowly and
carefully open the cap, top up with coolant and
check that the level is between the MIN and MAX
marks on the reservoir. Also check visually for
any fluid leaks. If, when restarting, the warning
light switches on again, contact a Fiat Dealership.
❒If the car is used under demanding
conditions(e.g. towing trailers uphill or fully
loaded): slow down and, if the light stays on, stop
the car. Wait for 2 or 3 minutes with the engine
running and slightly accelerated to further favour
the coolant circulation. Then stop the engine.

DPF (DIESEL PARTICULATE
FILTER) CLEANING IN PROGRESS
(only versions with DPF) (amber)
When the key is turned to MAR-ON, the warning
light switches on but should switch off after a few
seconds. The warning light (together with a message
and a symbol on the display on some versions)
switches on constantly to notify the driver that the
DPF system needs to eliminate captured pollutants
(particulate) through the regeneration process.
The warning light does not switch on during every
DPF regeneration, but only when driving conditions
require that the driver is notified. To switch the
warning light off, the car must be kept moving until
the regeneration process is completed.
On average, the process lasts fifteen minutes. The
best conditions to complete the regeneration
process are reached driving the car at about 60 km/h
with engine speed over 2000 rpm.
If this light switches on, it does not mean that the
car is defective, so there is no need to take it to
a workshop. On some versions, together with the
warning light switching on, the display shows a
dedicated message.
WARNING
The driving speed must always be
suitable for traffic and weather
conditions and the driver must always comply
with the Highway Code.The engine may be
switched off even if the DPF warning light is on:
repeated interruptions of the regeneration
process could cause an early deterioration of
engine oil. For this reason it is always advisable
to wait for the light to go off before turning
off the engine, following the instructions above.
It is not a good idea to complete DPF
regeneration with the car stationary.

FAILURE (amber)
In normal conditions, when the ignition key is turned
to MAR-ON the warning light switches on, but
should switch off as soon as the engine is started.
If the warning light remains on or comes on whilst
driving, it means that the injection system is not
working properly; in particular, if the warning light
comes on constantly, this indicates a malfunction in
the supply/ignition system that could cause excessive
exhaust emissions, a possible loss of performance,
poor driveability and high fuel consumption.The display will show the dedicated message.
Under these conditions, you may continue travelling
at moderate speed without demanding excessive
effort from the engine. Prolonged use of the car with
the warning light on may cause damage: contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
The warning light goes out after the fault disappears,
but the notification is stored in the system.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible if the
warning light either does
notswitchonwhenthekeyisturnedto

switches on either constantly or flashes (along
with a message and a symbol on the display
on some versions).The operation of warning light
may be checked by the traffic police using
specific devices. Comply with the laws and
regulations of the country where you are driving.
