SYMBOLS
Some vehicle components have coloured labels whose symbols indicate precautions to be observed when using this
component.
A plate summarising these symbols can also be found under the bonnet.
VEHICLE MODIFICATIONS/ALTERATIONS
IMPORTANT Any modification or alteration of the vehicle might seriously affect its safety and road holding, thus causing
accidents, in which the occupants could even be fatally injured.
ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER
If after buying the vehicle, you decide to install electrical accessories that require a permanent electrical supply (e.g. radio,
satellite anti-theft system, etc.) or accessories that in any case burden the electrical supply, contact a Fiat Dealership, whose
personnel will check whether the vehicle's electrical system is able to withstand the load required, or whether it needs to be
integrated with a more powerful battery.
IMPORTANT Take care when fitting additional spoilers, alloy wheel rims 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 vehicle and available as after-sales must carry the following label: Fiat
authorises the installation of transceivers provided that installation is carried out at a specialised centre, in a workmanlike
fashion and in compliance with manufacturer's specifications.
IMPORTANT Traffic authorities may not allow the vehicle on the road if devices are fitted that involve modifications to the
features of the vehicle. This may also cause lapse of the warranty in relation to faults caused by the change or either directly or
indirectly related to it. Fiat shall not be liable for damage caused by the installation of accessories either not supplied or
recommended by Fiat and/or not installed in compliance with the provided instructions.

Turning the device on
The system is automatically enabled on
all the doors by pressing button
twice on the key with remote control.
The direction indicators flash twice to
let you know that the device is active.
If one or more of the doors is not
perfectly shut, the dead lock device will
not be activated, thus preventing a
person getting into the vehicle through
the open door and, on shutting, it,
remaining stuck inside the passenger
compartment.
Turning the device off
The system is disabled automatically on
every door when:
unlocking the doors;
by turning the ignition key to the
MAR position.
2) 3)
WARNING
1)Button B should only be pressed when
the key is away from the body, in particular
from the eyes and from objects that can
be spoilt (e.g. clothes). Do not leave the
key unattended to avoid the button being
accidentally pressed while it is being
handled, e.g. by a child.2)Once the safe lock system is engaged it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the vehicle. Before engaging the
system please therefore check that there is
no one left on board.
3)If the remote control battery is flat, the
system can only be turned on by inserting
the metal key in the door lock: in this case,
the device remains active for the rear
doors only.
WARNING
1)Used batteries are harmful to the
environment. You can dispose of them
either in the correct containers as specified
by law or by taking them to a Fiat
Dealership, which will deal with their
disposal.
IGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 3 different
positions fig. 4:
STOP: engine off, key extractable,
steering locked. Some electrical
devices (e.g. sound system, central
door locking system, etc.) can operate;
MAR: driving position. All electrical
devices are enabled;
AVV: engine starting (unstable
position).
The ignition switch is fitted with an
electronic safety system that requires
the ignition key to be turned back
to STOP if the engine will not start,
before the starting operation can be
repeated.

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.
13)
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, warning light
will also come on
and engine operation is limited to 3000 rpm when a second threshold is reached.
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.
47) 48)
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.

Warning lights on
panelWhat it means What to do
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 "Maintenance
and care" section).
redDOOR OPEN
On some versions the warning light turns on when one or more doors or the rear
swing doors/tailgate (for versions/market, where provided) are not properly closed.
A buzzer will sound when doors/tailgate are open and the vehicle is moving.Check that all doors or the
swing doors/tailgate (for
versions/markets, where
provided) are perfectly
closed.
WARNING
44)If thewarning light turns on while driving (on certain versions together with the message on the display) stop the car immediately and
contact a Fiat Dealership.
45)If the
warning light does not switch on when the key is turned to MAR or if it stays on while driving (together with the message on the
display), there may be an anomaly 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.
46)A failure of the
warning light is indicated by the blinkingwarning light. In this case, thewarning light may not indicate a possible
problem with the airbag restraint system. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership to have the system checked immediately.
47)If the
warning light comes on, the exhausted engine oil should be changed as soon as possible, never drive more than 500 km from
the first switching-on of this warning light. Failure to observe the above 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.
48)If the
warning light flashes when driving, contact a Fiat Dealership.

WARNING
14)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.
15)The presence of water in the fuel supply circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular engine operation. If the
warning light switches on (on some versions together with the dedicated message on the display), contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the system bled. If the warning appears immediately after refuelling, water may have entered the tank: turn the engine off
immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
16)During regeneration, the fan could be operated.
WARNING
49)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 stopped if the DPF light is on; however, repeated interruption of the regeneration process may result in premature
deterioration of the engine oil. For this reason, always wait until the warning light switches off before stopping the engine as described above.
It is not advisable to complete DPF regeneration with the vehicle stationary.
