IGNITION SWITCH
The key can be turned to 3 different po-
sitions fig. 17:
❒OFF: engine off, key can be removed,
steering column locked. Certain elec-
trical devices (e.g.: sound system, pow-
er windows…) can work.
❒ON: driving position. All electrical de-
vices are powered.
❒START: engine starting.
The ignition switch is fitted with an elec-
tronic safety system that, in the event the
engine is not started, turns back the igni-
tion key to OFFbefore repeating the
starting operation.
fig. 17F0L0004m
If the ignition device is tam-
pered with (e.g.: attempted
theft), have it checked over by a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
WARNING
When getting out of the car,
always remove the key to
prevent any occupants from acci-
dentally activating the controls. Re-
member to engage the handbrake
and if the car is parked on uphill slope
to engage the first gear. If the car is
facing downhill, engage the reverse
gear (position P with automatic trans-
mission). Never leave unsupervised
children in the car.
WARNING
STEERING COLUMN LOCK
Engaging
The steering column lock will engage 5
seconds after removing the key from the
ignition switch (engine off).
Disengaging
The steering column lock will disengage
after fitting the key into the ignition switch.
IMPORTANT Switching the engine off
when the car is running will not engage the
steering column lock. The multifunction
display will show the relevant message
(see section “Warning lights and Mes-
sages”).
IMPORTANT If, after trying to turn the
instrument panel on and/or to start the
engine, the display will show the message
“Check vehicle protection system”, repeat
the operation rocking the steering wheel
to facilitate steering unlocking. Displaying
of this message does not impair steering
column lock operation.

IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT
THE T.P.M.S. SYSTEM
Failure indications will not be stored and
therefore will not be displayed when turn-
ing the engine off and on again. If failure
persists, the control unit will send warn-
ing indications to the instrument panel on-
ly after a few seconds when the car is
moving.
IMPORTANT T.P.M.S. system cannot in-
dicate sudden tyre pressure drops (e.g.:
tyre burst). In this event, brake the car
cautiously and avoid sudden steering.
IMPORTANT Replacing standard tyres
with winter tyres and vice versa involves
T.P.M.S. system set-up that shall be per-
formed at Fiat Dealerships only.
IMPORTANT The T.P.M.S. system re-
quires special equipment. Consult Fiat
Dealership to know what type of acces-
sories are compatible with the system
(wheels, wheel caps, etc.). Using other ac-
cessories could cause system malfunc-
tioning.IMPORTANT Tyre pressure could change
according to outside temperature. For this
reason the T.P.M.S. system could tem-
porarily indicate low tyre pressure. In this
event check pressure with cold tyres and
restore proper inflation values if required.
IMPORTANT If the car is fitted with
T.P.M.S. system, tyre and/or rim removal
and refitting operations involve special
precautions; to prevent damages or wrong
sensor refitting, contact Fiat Dealership to
have tyre and/or rim changed.
IMPORTANT If the car is fitted with
T.P.M.S. system, when changing a tyre,
change also the rubber seal of the valve.
Contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Strong radiofrequency
noise may inhibit regular TPMS system op-
eration; in this event, a dedicated message
will be displayed to warn the driver. This
message will disappear automatically as
soon as noise disappears.SOUND SYSTEM
(where provided)
For the operation of the radio with
CD/MP3 CD (where provided), read the
instructions for use given in the Supple-
ment attached to the Owner Handbook.
Sound system (where provided)
The system includes:
❒2 tweeters (power 40W max. each),
located on front doors;
❒2 mid-woofers, (diameter 165 mm,
power 40W max. each), located on
front doors;
❒2 rear full-range speakers, (diameter
165 mm, power 40W max. each), lo-
cated on rear doors.

IMPORTANT If it is not possible to turn
the ignition key to ON, remove the emer-
gency key, fit it into slot A-fig. 1to un-
lock the ignition switch; then, turn the key
to ONand follow the starting procedure.
Contact Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Never leave the ignition key
into the ignition switch when the engine
is off. In this event, when opening the dri-
ver’s door, a buzzer will sound for about
1 second.
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.

SAFETY
DEVICES
CORRECT USE
OF THE CAR
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.
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.
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
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition key to OFFwhile the
engine 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.
IMPORTANT If the engine is turned off
while the car is still moving, for safety rea-
sons it will be impossible to remove the
key from the ignition switch. To remove
the key, turn it to ONand then to OFF
with the car stopped without forcing at re-
moval.

EOBD ENGINE CONTROL
SYSTEM FAILURE
Under normal conditions, turning the ig-
nition key to ON, the warning light turns
on, but it should go off when the engine has
started. In this case, turning on indicates
proper working of the warning light. If the
warning light stays on or turns on when
travelling:
❒glowing steadily: means a fault in the
supply/ignition system which could
cause high emissions at the exhaust,
possible lack of performance, poor
handling and high consumption levels.
On certain versions the dedicated mes-
sage is displayed.
In these conditions it is possible to con-
tinue driving without however requiring
heavy effort or high speed from the en-
gine. Prolonged use of the car with the
warning light on may cause damages. Con-
tact Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
The warning light goes off if the fault dis-
appears, but it is still stored by the system.
❒flashing: indicates the possibility of
damage to the catalyst (see “EOBD
system” in section “Dashboard and
controls”). INJECTION SYSTEM

ter few seconds.
If the warning light stays on or turns on
when travelling, means a fault in the sup-
ply/ignition system which could cause high
emissions at the exhaust, possible lack of
performance, poor handling and high con-
sumption levels.
On certain versions the dedicated message
is displayed.
In these conditions it is possible to con-

IF A TYRE IS
PUNCTURED
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Wheel changing and correct use of the
jack and space-saver spare wheel call for
some precautions as listed below.
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine (by pushing,
towing, or coasting downhill) as this could
cause fuel to flow into the catalytic exhau-
st system and damage it beyond repair.
Remember that the brake booster and the
power steering system are not operating
until the engine is started, a greater effort
will therefore be required to press the
brake pedal or to turn the steering wheel.
Alert other drivers that the
car is stationary in com-
pliance with local regulations: hazard
warning lights, warning triangle etc.
Any passengers on board should lea-
ve the car, especially if it is heavily la-
den. Passengers should stay away
from oncoming traffic while the
wheel is being changed on. If the
wheel is being changed on a steep or
badly surfaced road, place the wed-
ges or other suitable material under
the wheel to stop the car.
WARNING
The space-saver spare wheel
is specific to your car, do not
use it on other models, or use the spa-
re wheel of other models on your car.
The space-saver spare wheel shall
only be used in an emergency.
It shall only be used for the distance
necessary to reach a service point and
the car speed shall not exceed 80
Km/h. The spare wheel has an oran-
ge sticker that summarises the main
cautions for use and limitations. The
sticker should never be removed or
covered.
Never fit a wheel cap on a space-sa-
ver spare wheel. The sticker gives the
following information in four langua-
ges: caution! For temporary use only!
80 km/h max! Replace by normal
wheel as soon as possible. Do not co-
ver this label.
