Acceleration
Accelerating violently increasing the revs
will greatly affect consumption and emis-
sions: acceleration should be gradual and
should not exceed the maximum torque.
CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short journeys and frequent cold starts do
not allow the engine to reach optimum op-
erating temperature. This results in a sig-
nificant increase in consumption levels
(from +15 to +30% on the urban cycle)
and emission of harmful substances.
Traffic and
road conditions
Rather high consumption levels are tied to
situations with heavy traffic, for example
in queues with frequent use of the lower
gears or in cities with many traffic lights.
Also winding mountain roads and rough
road surfaces adversely affect consump-
tion.
Traffic hold-ups
During prolonged hold-ups (level crossings)
the engine should be switched off.TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT NOTES
For towing caravans or trailers the vehi-
cle must be fitted with a certified tow
hook and an adequate electric system. In-
stallation should be carried out by spe-
cialised personnel who release a special
document for circulation on the road.
Install any specific and/or additional rear-
view mirrors as specified by law.
Remember that when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, the brak-
ing spaces increase and overtaking takes
longer depending on the overall weight.
Engage a low gear when driving downhill,
rather than constantly using the brake.
The weight the trailer exerts on the ve-
hicle tow hook reduces by the same
amount the actual vehicle loading capaci-
ty. To make sure the maximum towable
weight is not exceeded (given in the log
book) account should be taken of the ful-
ly laden trailer, including accessories and
personal belongings. DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine when the vehi-
cle is stationary or at high or low speed:
in this way the engine will warm up grad-
ually increasing consumption and emis-
sions. You should drive off slowly straight
away avoiding high revs so that the engine
will warm up more quickly.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid accelerating when waiting at traffic
lights or before switching off the engine.
This and also double declutching is ab-
solutely pointless on modern vehicles and
also increase consumption and pollution.
Gear selection
As soon as the conditions of the traffic and
road allow, use a higher gear. Using a low
gear to obtain brilliant performance in-
creases consumption.
In the same way improper use of a high
gear increases consumption, emissions an
engine wear.
Top speed
Fuel consumption considerably increases
with speed. Avoid superfluous braking and
accelerating, which cost in terms of both
fuel and emissions.

LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
ç
FUEL RESERVE
(amber)
Turning the ignition key to
MARthe warning light turns on, but it
should go off after few seconds.
The warning light turns on when about
10/12 litres fuel (according to versions) are
left in the tank.
IMPORTANT The warning light flashes to
indicate a failure, contact Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible to have the system
checked. INJECTION SYSTEM
FAILURE
(amber)
Under normal conditions, turning
the ignition key to MAR, the warning light
turns on but it should go off after engine
starting.
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-
tinue driving without however requiring
heavy effort or high speed from the en-
gine. In any case, contact Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible.
U
INEFFICIENT ABS
SYSTEM (amber)
Turning the ignition key to
MARthe warning light turns on, but it
should go off after few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the sys-
tem is inefficient or unavailable. In this case
the braking system keeps its effectiveness
unchanged, but without the potential of-
fered by the ABS system. Caution is ad-
visable and it is necessary to contact Fiat
Dealership.
On certain versions the dedicated message
is displayed.
>F
FRONT PASSENGER’S
AIR BAG
DEACTIVATED
(amber)
(where provided)
Warning light Fcomes on when front
passenger’s air bag is deactivated.
With front passenger’s air bag on, turn-
ing the ignition key to MAR, warning light
Fcomes on steadily for about 4 sec-
onds, it flashes for other 4 seconds and
then it shall go off.
Warning light Findicates
also warning light ¬failures.
This is indicated by intermittent flash-
ing, over 4 seconds, of warning light
F. In this event warning light ¬
indicates that there could be a failure
in safety systems. Contact Fiat Deal-
ership immediately to have the sys-
tem checked.

Glow plug warming
Turning the ignition key to MAR, the
warning light turns on and it will turn off
when glow plugs reach the preset tem-
perature. Start the engine immediately af-
ter warning light switching off.
IMPORTANT With hot ambient temper-
ature, warning light stays on for very short
time.
Glow plug warming failure
The warning light turns on when there is
a failure in the glow plug warming system.
Contact Fiat Dealership as soon as possi-
ble.
On certain versions the dedicated message
is displayed.

WATER IN DIESEL
FUEL FILTER
(Multijet versions - amber)
Turning the ignition key to MARthe
warning light turns on, but it should go off
after few seconds.
The warning light turns on when there is
water in the diesel fuel filter.
On certain versions the dedicated message
is displayed.
c
The presence of water in the
fuel circuit may cause serious
damage to the entire injec-
tion system and cause irreg-
ular engine operation. If the warning
light cturns on (on certain versions to-
gether with the message on the display)
contact Fiat Dealership as soon as pos-
sible to have the system relieved. If the
above indications come on immedi-
ately after refuelling, water has prob-
ably been poured into the tank: turn
the engine off immediately and contact
Fiat Dealership.
VEHICLE PROTECTION
SYSTEM FAILURE -
FIAT CODE
(amber)
Turning the key to MARthe warning light
shall flash only once and then go off.
The warning light turned on glowing
steadily with key at MAR, indicates:
❒possible failure (see” Fiat Code sys-
tem” in section “Dashboard and con-
trols”);
❒possible attempt to break-in with
alarm on; in this case the warning light
will turn off after about 10 seconds.
If with the engine running the warning light
Yflashes, this means that the vehicle is
not protected by the engine inhibitor de-
vice (see “Fiat Code system” in section
“Dashboard and controls”).
Contact Fiat Dealership to have all the key
memorised.

IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the
negative terminals of the two batteries:
sparks could ignite the flammable gas from
the battery. If the other battery is fitted in
another vehicle, prevent accidental con-
tacts between the metal parts of the two
vehicles.
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine (by pushing,
towing, or coasting downhill) as this could
cause fuel to flow into the catalytic ex-
haust system and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake
booster and the power steering system
are not operating until the engine is start-
ed, a greater effort will therefore be re-
quired to press the brake pedal or turn
the steering wheel.IF A TYRE
IS PUNCTURED
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Wheel changing and correct use of the
jack and spare wheel call for some pre-
cautions as listed below.
Alert other drivers that the
vehicle is stationary in com-
pliance with the regulations in force:
hazard warning lights, warning trian-
gle etc. Any passengers on board
should leave the vehicle, especially if
it is heavily laden. Passengers should
stay away from oncoming traffic
while the wheel is being changed on.
Pull the handbrake.
WARNING
The spare wheel is specific to
your vehicle, do not use it on
other models, or use the spare wheel
of other models on your vehicle.
Wheel bolts are specific to your vehi-
cle: do not use them on other models
and do not use bolts of other models.
WARNING
Have the punctured wheel
repaired and refitted as soon
as possible. Do not grease the threads
of bolts before installing them: they
might slip out.
