ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE
OWNERIf after buying the car, you decide to install electrical
accessories that require a permanent electric supply
(radio, satellite anti-theft system, etc.) or accessories
that in any case burden the electric supply, contact
a Fiat Dealership, whose qualified personnel, besides
suggesting the most suitable devices from
Lineaccessori Fiat, will also evaluate the overall
electric consumption, checking whether the car's
electrical system is able to withstand the load
required, or whether it needs to be integrated with a
more powerful battery.
WARNING
Take care when fitting additional
spoilers, alloy wheels or non-standard
wheel hubs: they could reduce the ventilation of
the brakes and affect efficiency under sharp,
repeated braking or on long descents. Make
sure that nothing obstructs the pedal stroke
(mats, etc .)INSTALLING ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC
DEVICES
Electrical and electronic devices installed after buying
the car in the context of after-sales service must
carry the label (see fig. 91):
Fiat Group Automobiles S.p.A. authorises the
installation of transceiver devices on condition that
such installations are carried out in a workmanlike
fashion, following the manufacturer’s instructions, at
a specialised centre.
IMPORTANT Traffic police may not allow the car on
the road if devices have been installed which modify
the features of the car. This may also cause
invalidation of warranty in relation to faults caused
by the change either directly or indirectly related
to it.
Fiat Group Automobiles S.p.A. shall not be liable for
damage caused by the installation of accessories
either not supplied or recommended by Fiat Group
Automobiles S.p.A. and/or not installed in
compliance with the provided instructions.

Electric devices
Use electrical devices only for the amount of time
necessary. The heated rear window, additional
headlights, windscreen/rear window wipers and
heater fan need a considerable amount of energy,
therefore increasing fuel consumption (by up to 25%
in the urban cycle).
Climate control system
Air conditioning leads to higher fuel consumption (on
average up to +20%). If the temperature outside
permits, try and use the air vents.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified spoilers may adversely affect
air drag and fuel consumption.DRIVING STYLE
The main driving styles that affect fuel consumption
are listed below.
Starting
Do not warm the engine with the car at a standstill
or at idle or high speed: under these conditions
the engine warms up much more slowly, increasing
electrical consumption and emissions. It is therefore
advisable to move off immediately, slowly, avoiding
high speeds: in this way the engine will warm faster.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid accelerating when starting at traffic lights or
before switching off the engine. This and also double
declutching is absolutely pointless on modern cars
and also increases consumption and pollution.
Gear selection
As soon as the conditions of the traffic and road
allow, use a higher gear. Using a low gear for faster
acceleration will increase consumption.
In the same way improper use of a high gear
increases consumption, emissions an engine wear.
Max. speed
Fuel consumption increases considerably with speed.
Maintain a constant speed, avoiding unnecessary
braking and acceleration, which cost in terms of both
fuel consumption and emissions.

PASSENGER/SIDE AIRBAGS
DEACTIVATED (amber)
The warning light
switches on when the front
passenger's airbag and side bag are disabled. With
front passenger airbag on, when the ignition key
is turned to MAR-ON, the
warning light switches
on constantly for several seconds, it flashes for
another few seconds and then it should switch off.
WARNING
A failure of the
warning light is
indicated by warning light
switching
on. In addition, the airbag system automatically
disables the airbags on the passenger's side
(both front and side airbags where provided).
Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately to have the system checked.
UNFASTENED SEAT BELTS (red)
The warning light switches on constantly with the
car stationary and the driver's side or passenger side
seat belt (when the passenger is present) not
fastened.The warning light will flash and a buzzer will sound if
the car is in motion and the front seat belts are
not correctly fastened.
The SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system buzzer can
only be permanently switched off by a Fiat
Dealership.
The system can be reactivated using the Setup Menu.
LOW BATTERY CHARGE (red)
The warning light comes on when the ignition key is
turned to MAR-ON, but it should go out as soon
as the engine has started (with the engine running at
idle speed a brief delay before going out is
acceptable).
If the warning light stays on constantly or continues
to flash, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately.CONTINUOUSLY ON: LOW

Low engine oil pressure
The warning light switches on constantly together
(for versions/markets, where provided) with a
message on the display when the system detects that
the engine oil pressure is too low.
WARNING
If the warning light
turns on when
the car is travelling (on certain versions
together with the message on the display) stop
the engine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
Engine oil degraded
(versions with DPF only)
The warning light will flash and a specific message will
appear on the display (for versions/markets, where
provided). The warning light may flash in the
following ways, depending on the version:
❒for 1 minute every two hours;
❒cycles of 3 minutes with intervals with the warning
light off for 5 seconds until the oil is changed.
After the first indication, at each engine start-up the
warning light will continue flashing as described
above until the oil is changed. The display (for
versions/markets, where provided), shows a
dedicated message together with the warning light.The flashing of this warning light should not be
considered as a fault; it informs the customer that
the oil needs to be changed following normal car use.
Note that engine oil degrades faster under the
following circumstances:
❒mainly town use of the car which makes the DPF
regeneration process more frequent;
❒use of the car for short drives, in which the engine
does not have time to reach its regular operating
temperature;
❒repeated interruption of the regeneration process,
signalled by the DPF warning light coming on.
WARNING
If the warning light switches on, the
deteriorated engine oil must be changed
as soon as possible, and never more than 500
km from the first time that the warning light
switches on. Failure to observe the above
indication may result in severe damage to the
engine and invalidate the warranty. Remember
that the operation of this warning light is not
related to the amount of oil in the engine.
Therefore, never top up with oil when the
warning light starts flashing.

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.
