TRIP COMPUTER
IN BRIEF
The Trip computer is used to display
information on vehicle operation
when the ignition key is turned to
MAR. This function allows you to
define two separate trips, called "Trip
A" and "Trip B", for monitoring the
"complete mission" (journey) of
the vehicle in a reciprocally
independent manner. Both functions
can be reset (reset means start of
a new journey).
"Trip A" can be used to display the
values relating to:
External temperature
Range
Distance travelled A
Average consumption A
Instant consumption
Average speed A
Trip time A (driving time)
Reset Trip A
"Trip B", available on multifunction
display only, is used to display
the values relating to:
Distance travelled B
Average consumption B
Average speed B
Trip time B (driving time)
Trip B reset
11)
Values displayed
External temperature
Indicates the temperature outside the
vehicle passenger compartment.
Range (for versions/markets, where
provided)
This indicates the distance that can still
be travelled with the fuel in the tank,
assuming that driving style remains
unvaried. The display will show the
reading "----"when the following
events take place:
range is lower than 50 km (or
corresponding figure in mi)
vehicle is left parked with the engine
running for a long time
IMPORTANT The range can be affected
by several factors: driving style (see
paragraph “Driving style” in the
“Starting and driving” section), type of
route (motorway, towns and cities,
mountain roads, etc…), usage
conditions (load, tyre pressures, etc…).
Trip planning must therefore take the
above into account.Distance travelled
This value shows the distance travelled
from the start of the new journey.
Average consumption (for versions/
markets, where provided)
This value shows the approximate
average fuel consumption from the start
of the new journey.
Instant consumption (for versions/
markets where provided)
This value shows the fuel consumption.
The value is constantly updated. The
display will show "----"ifthevehicle is
parked with the engine running.
Average speed
This value shows the vehicle's average
speed based on the overall time
elapsed since the start of the new
journey.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

Trip time
Time elapsed since the start of the new
journey.
IMPORTANT If there is no information,
the Trip computer displays "----" in
place of the value. When normal
operating conditions are restored, the
counting of the various values is
resumed, without either zeroing the
values displayed prior to the problem,
or starting a new mission.
TRIP control button
The TRIP button is located at the end of
the right stalk fig. 118. With the ignition
key turned to MAR, this button allows
you to view the previously described
values and also zero them to begin
a new journey:
brief press to access the various
values displays;
long press to reset and then start a
new mission.
New mission
This begins after a reset:
"manual" resetting by the user, by
pressing the relevant button;
“automatic” resetting, when the
distance travelled reaches 3,999.9 km
or 9,999.9 km (depending on the type
of display) or when the travel time
reaches 99.59 (99 hours and 59
minutes);
after disconnection/reconnection of
the battery.
IMPORTANT The reset operation when
“Trip A” details are being displayed
only resets the information associated
with this function.
IMPORTANT The reset operation when
“Trip B” details are being displayed
resets only the information associated
with this function.Start of journey procedure
With the ignition key in the MAR
position, reset by pressing the TRIP
button and keeping it pressed for more
than 2 seconds.
Exit Trip
You can automatically exit the TRIP
function once all the values have been
displayed or by holding theMENU
button (*) down for more than 1
second.
(*) For versions/markets where
provided.
WARNING
11)The “Trip B” function may be disabled
(see paragraph “Activating Trip B”).
"Range" and "Instantaneous fuel
consumption" parameters cannot be reset.

EOBD SYSTEM
47)The EOBD system (European On Board
Diagnosis) allows continuous diagnosis
of emission-related components on
the vehicle to be made. It also alerts the
driver, by turning on warning light
in the instrument panel (together
with the relevant 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:
monitor the efficiency of the system;
indicate an increase in emissions
due to vehicle malfunction;
indicate the need to replace
components which have deteriorated.
The system also has a connector
that can be interfaced with appropriate
equipment, which makes it possible
to read the error codes stored in the
control unit together with a series
of specific parameters for engine
operation and diagnosis.
This check can also be carried out by
traffic control authorities.
IMPORTANT After eliminating the
failure, to check the system completely,
Fiat Dealerships run a bench test and,
if necessary, road tests which may
also call for a long journey.
WARNING
47)If, when the ignition key is turned to
MAR, thewarning light does not
switch on, switches on constantly or
flashes when driving (on certain versions
together with the message on the display),
contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible. The operation of
warning
light may be checked by the traffic police
using specific devices. Always comply with
the traffic regulations in force in the
country where you are driving.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

Warning lights on
panelWhat it means What to do
redLOW BATTERY CHARGE
The warning light comes on when the ignition key
is turned to MAR, 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, contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately.
86
KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

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
12)If thewarning light switches on when driving, stop the engine immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
Warning lights on
panelWhat it means What to do
amberINJECTION/EOBD SYSTEM FAILURE
In normal conditions, when the ignition key is turned to MAR the
warning light switches on, but it should switch off as soon as the
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.

panelWhat it means What to do
amberVEHICLE PROTECTION SYSTEM FAILURE - FIAT CODE
When the key is turned to MAR the warning light will flash
only once and then switch off.
If, with the ignition key at MAR, the warning light stays on
permanently, this indicates a possible failure (see “Fiat
Code system” in the “Know your vehicle” chapter);
If, with the engine running, thewarning light flashes,
it means that the vehicle is not protected by the engine
immobiliser device.Contact a Fiat Dealership to have all the keys stored in
the memory.
amberREAR FOG LIGHTS
The warning light comes on when the rear fog lights are
turned on.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

In the event of a side impact, the
system provides best protection if the
passenger sits on the seat in a correct
position, thus allowing correct window
bag deployment.
IMPORTANT NOTES
The front airbags and/or side bags
(where provided) may be deployed if
the vehicle is subject to heavy knocks
or accidents involving the underbody
area, such as for example violent
shocks against steps, kerbs or low
obstacles, or the vehicle falling into big
potholes or depressions in the road.
A small amount of dust will be released
when the airbags are deployed. The
dust is not harmful and does not
indicate the beginning of a fire.
Furthermore, the surface of the
deployed bag and the interior of the
vehicle may be covered in a dusty
residue: this may irritate your skin and
eyes. Wash with mild soap and water in
the event of exposure.
Should an accident occur in which any
of the safety devices are activated,
take the vehicle to a Fiat Dealership to
have the activated devices replaced
and to have the whole system checked.
Every control, repair and replacement
operation concerning the airbags must
be carried out only at Fiat Dealerships.If you are having the vehicle scrapped,
have the system deactivated at a Fiat
Dealership first. If the vehicle changes
ownership, the new owner must be
informed of how to use the airbags and
the above warnings and also be given
this "Owner Handbook".
Pretensioners, front airbags and front
side bags are deployed differently
according to the type of collision.
Failure to activate one or more of the
devices does not indicate a system
malfunction.

WARNING
87)If thewarning light does not turn on
when the key is turned to MAR, or if it
stays on when travelling (together with the
message on the display on some versions),
there could be a failure in the restraint
systems. If this is the case, the airbags or
pretensioners may not trigger in the event
of an accident or, less likely, they may
trigger accidentally. Contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately to have the system
checked.
88)Do not travel carrying objects in your
lap, in front of your chest or between your
lips (pipe, pencils, etc.): they could cause
severe injury if the airbag is deployed.
89)On cars with side bags, do not cover
the front seat backrests with extra covers.90)If the car has been stolen or in the case
of attempt to steal it, if it has been
subjected to vandalism or floods, have the
airbag system checked by a Fiat
Dealership.
91)If the ignition device is at MAR, even if
the engine is switched off, airbags may
be deployed when the vehicle is stationary
and hit by another vehicle. Therefore,
even if the vehicle is stationary, when an
active front passenger airbag is fitted, DO
NOT install rearward facing child restraint
systems on the front passenger seat.
Deployment of the airbag following an
impact could cause fatal injuries to the
child. Therefore, always deactivate the
passenger side airbag when a rearward
facing child restraint system is installed on
the front passenger seat. The front
passenger seat must also be positioned
back as far as possible in order to prevent
the child restraint system from coming
into contact with the dashboard.
Immediately reactivate the passenger
airbag as soon as the child restraint system
has been removed. Also remember that, if
the ignition device is set to STOP, none
of the safety devices (airbags or
pretensioners) will be deployed in the event
of collision. Non-deployment in such
cases does not indicate a system
malfunction.
92)Do not affix rigid objects to the garment
hooks or support handles.
93)Do not rest your head, arms or elbows
on the door, windows or the area in which
the Window bag is located to avoid
possible injury during airbag inflation.
94)Never lean your head, arms or elbows
out of the window.
