LIGHT BEAM DIRECTION
The correct direction of the headlights is essential for the
comfort and safety of the driver and other road users.
To ensure the best visibility conditions when travelling with
the headlights on the headlight alignment must be correct.
Contact the Fiat Service Network to have the direction
checked and, if necessary, adjusted.
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition key in the MAR posi-
tion and the dipped headlamps on.
The vehicle tilts backwards when it is laden, raising the light
beam. The direction of the beam must therefore be ad-
justed in this case.
After having travelled several kilometres,
check that the attachment retaining bolts
are still securely fastened.
WARNING
Never exceed the maximum permitted load
(see “Technical specifications”).

EOBD SY STE M
The EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis) allows
continuous diagnosis of emission-related components on
the vehicle. It also alerts the driver, by turning on warn-
ing light U in the instrument panel (together with the rel-
evant message in the display on some versions), when
these components are no longer in peak condition (see
“Warning lights and messages” section).
The goal of the system is to:
❒keep the system efficiency under control;
❒warn about increased emissions due to a vehicle mal-
function;
❒warn of the need to replace deteriorated components.
The system also has a diagnostic connector that can be in-
terfaced with appropriate equipment, which makes it pos-
sible to read the error codes memorized in the control
unit together with a series of specific parameters for en-
gine operation and diagnosis.
This check can also be carried out by traffic authorities.
WARNING After eliminating the problem, to check the
system completely, Fiat Service Network run a bench test
and, if necessary, road tests which may also call for a long
journey.
Go to the Fiat Service Network as soon
as possible if warning light
Udoes not
light up when the ignition key is turned to MAR
or if, while travelling, the warning light comes on
either permanently or flashing (along with a mes-
sage on the display on certain versions). The op-
eration of the
Uwarning light may be checked
by the traffic authorities using specific devices. Re-
spect the regulations in force in the country where
you are driving.
WARNING
SPEED BLOCK
(for versions/markets where provided)
The vehicle is equipped with a speed limitation function
that can be set at the user’s request to one of four pre-
defined values: 90, 100, 110, 130 km/h.
To activate/deactivate this function, contact the Fiat Ser-
vice Network.
Following the operation, a sticker will be applied to the
windscreen showing the top speed setting.
WARNING The speedometer could show a higher top
speed than the one set by the Dealership in accordance
with the regulations in force.

❒vehicle in motion, for example when driving on hilly
roads;
❒stopping the engine through the Start&Stop system for
more than about three minutes.
❒automatic climate control system for establishing a
comfortable temperature or enabling the MAX – DEF
function.
With a gear engaged, the engine can only be automatical-
ly restarted by fully depressing the clutch pedal. The dri-
ver is asked to perform this operation through the warn-
ing light flashing in the instrument panel fig. 103 and, where
provided, the message in the display.
N.B.: If the clutch is not depressed when the three min-
utes have elapsed since the engine was stopped, the en-
gine can only be restarted using the key.
N.B.: If you stall the engine, for example by releasing off
the clutch pedal quickly with gear engaged, if the
Start&Stop system is activated, the engine can be restart-
ed by fully depressing the clutch pedal or by putting the
gear lever into neutral.
SAFETY FUNCTIONS
In engine cut-out conditions through the Start&Stop sys-
tem, if the driver unfastens his/her seat belt and opens the
driver’s side door or the passenger’s side door, the engine
can only be restarted using the key.
The driver is notified of this condition by a buzzer, through
the warning light flashing in the instrument panel fig. 103
and, where provided, by a message in the display.

ENERGY SAVING FUNCTION
(for versions/markets where provided)
If, after the engine has been automatically restarted, the
driver does not take any action for a period of about 3 min-
utes, the Start&Stop system will definitively stop the en-
gine to avoid fuel consumption. The engine can only be
started using the key in such cases.
N.B.: In any case, it is possible to keep the engine running
by deactivating the Start&Stop system.
OPERATING IRREGULARITIES
In the case of malfunctions the Start&Stop system is dis-
abled. The driver is informed of the problem by the gen-
eral failure warning light A-fig. 105, where provided, com-
ing on with an information message and the system fail-
ure symbol B-fig. 105 in the control panel.
In this case, contact the Fiat Service Network. VEHICLE INACTIVITY
Versions with dummy pole fig. 106
If the vehicle is inactive, special care must be taken to dis-
connect the battery electrical power supply. This proce-
dure is carried out by disconnecting the rapid release neg-
ative terminal A from the negative false pole B because
there is a battery status monitoring sensor D at the neg-
ative battery pole C which should never be disconnected
except if the actual battery is replaced.

REFUELLING CAPACITY
To fill the tank completely, top up twice after the pump
switches off. Further top ups could cause faults in the fu-
el supply system. If using/parking the vehicle in mountainous/cold areas for
a long time, you should refuel with locally available diesel.
In this case, it is also advisable to keep the tank over 50% full.
For diesel engines, use only diesel fuel for
motor vehicles in accordance with EN590
European specifications. The use of other
products or mixtures may damage the engine be-
yond repair and consequently invalidate the war-
ranty, depending on the damage caused. If you ac-
cidentally introduce other types of fuel into the
tank, do not start the engine. Empty the tank. If the
engine has run, even for a very short time, you will
need to have the entire fuel supply system emptied
in addition to the tank.
FUEL TANK CAP fig. 109
To open
1) Open the flap A-fig. 109 by pulling it outwards, keep the
cap B still, insert the ignition key in the lock and turn it an-
ticlockwise.
2) Turn the cap anticlockwise and remove it. The cap has
a device C that attaches it to the flap so it cannot be lost.
When refuelling, attach the cap to the flap as illustrated
in the diagram.
