Warning lights on
panelWhat it means What to do
redLOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
When the key is turned to MAR, the digital warning light switches on, but it should
switch off as soon as the engine is started.
The warning light switches on constantly together with the message in the display
when the system detects that the engine oil pressure is insufficient.
12)
ENGINE OIL DETERIORATED
(MultiJet versions with DPF only)
The warning light starts to flash together with a message on the display (for
versions/markets, where provided) when the system detects that the engine oil
has deteriorated.
If the warning light flashes, this does not mean that the vehicle is faulty, but simply
informs the driver that it is now necessary to change the engine oil as a result of
regular vehicle use. If the oil is not changed, when a second deterioration
threshold is reached, the
warning light also switches on in the instrument
panel and the engine operation is limited to 3000 rpm.
If the oil is still not changed, when a third deterioration threshold is reached, the
engine is limited to 1500 rpm to avoid damage.Contact a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible.
50) 51)
Remember that the
deterioration of the engine oil
is accelerated by:
– mainly town use of the
vehicle which makes the DPF
regeneration process more
frequent
– use of the vehicle for short
trips, preventing the engine
from reaching operating
temperature
– repeated interruption of the
regeneration process,
signalled by the DPF warning
light coming on.
redLOW ENGINE OIL LEVEL
When turning the ignition key to MAR, the warning light turns on but it should go
off after a few seconds.
This warning light appears on the panel when the engine oil level falls below the
minimum recommended value.
On certain versions a dedicated message is displayed.Restore the correct engine oil
level (see “Checking fluid
levels” in the "Servicing and
maintenance" section).

WARNING
48)If thewarning light does not switch on when the key is turned to MAR or if it stays on when driving (together with the message on the
display), there may be a fault in the restraint systems; in this case, the airbags or pretensioners may not deploy in the event of an accident
or, in a lower number of cases, they could deploy erroneously. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership to have the system checked
immediately.
49)Failure of the
warning light is indicated by thewarning light coming on. In this case, thewarning light may not indicate a fault in
the restraint systems. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership to have the system checked immediately.
50)Deteriorated engine oil must be replaced as soon as possible after the
warning light comes on, and never more than 500 km after it
first switches on. Failure to observe the above indications may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the warranty. Remember
that when this warning light comes on, it does not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if it flashes you do not need to top up the engine
oil.
51)If the
warning light flashes when driving, contact a Fiat Dealership.

engine is started.
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.13)
If the warning light stays on or switches on when 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.
On some versions, the display shows the dedicated message.
The warning light switches off if the malfunction disappears, but
it is still stored by the system.Under these conditions, you may continue
travelling at a moderate speed without
demanding excessive effort from the engine.
Prolonged use of the vehicle with the warning
light on constantly may cause damage.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
NOTE (for petrol engine only)
If the warning light flashes, it means that the catalytic converter
may be damaged.In this case, it is necessary to release the
accelerator pedal to lower the speed of the
engine until the warning light stops flashing.
Continue the journey at moderate speed, trying
to avoid driving conditions that may cause
further flashing and contact a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible.

amberDPF (PARTICULATE FILTER) CLEANING UNDERWAY
(for versions/markets, where provided)
When the key is turned to MAR, the warning light
switches on but it should switch off after a few seconds.
The warning light switches on constantly to inform the
driver that the DPF system needs to eliminate the trapped
pollutants (particulate) through the regeneration process.
A dedicated message will appear on the display when the
warning light switches on (for versions/markets, where
provided).The warning light does not come on during every DPF
regeneration, but only when driving conditions require
that the driver is notified. The warning light will switch
off if the vehicle remains in motion until regeneration
has been completed. On average, the process lasts
15 minutes.
The best conditions to complete the regeneration
process are reached by driving the vehicle constantly
at 60 km/h with engine speed above 2000 rpm. When
this warning light comes on, it does not indicate a
vehicle failure and it should not therefore be taken to a
workshop.
