TRIP COMPUTER
IN BRIEF
The Trip computer is used to display
information on vehicle operation
when the ignition key is turned to
MAR-ON. 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” is used to display the figures
relating to:
❒Outside temperature
❒Range
❒Distance travelled A
❒Average consumption A
❒Instant fuel 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:
118
KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

❒Distance travelled B
❒Average consumption B
❒Average speed B
❒Trip time B (driving time).
20)
Values displayed
Outside 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 value lower than 50 km (or 30
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 covered
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 “----”ifthecar
is parked with the engine running.Average speed
This value shows the car's average
speed based on the overall time
elapsed since the start of the new
journey.
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 on the right
stalk fig. 150. With the ignition key
turned to MAR-ON, 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.

Warning lights on
panelWhat it means What to do
amberINJECTION/EOBD SYSTEM FAILURE
In normal conditions, when the ignition key is turned to
MAR-ON 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.
22)
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 car with the
warning light on constantly may cause
damage.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.

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 above indication occurs
immediately after refuelling, water may have entered the tank: turn the engine off immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
