Warning lights on
panelWhat it means What to do
INDICATION OF DIESEL EMISSIONS ADDITIVE LOW LEVEL
(UREA)
❒Thefirst low level warning is given at around 1,200 km range and is
determined according to the current consumption rate. The UREA low
level warning light and message for topping up are shown on the
instrument panel. The UREA low level warning light remains lit until the
UREA tank is topped up with at least 3 litres of UREA.
❒If topping up is not executed, an additional warning appears at the
following km left until the UREA tank is empty: 400 km, 320 km, 240
km.
❒When 200 km are remaining before the UREA tank is empty, a
continuous message appears on the instrument panel accompanied by
a buzzer sound.
❒When the range is 0 km, the display (for versions/markets where
provided) will show a dedicated message. In this case, the vehicle
speed is limited to 50 km/h and, after turning it off, it is not possible to
restart the vehicle.
❒It is possible to restart the engine again as soon as the UREA is topped
up (the minimum amount to be added is 3 litres).
103)
Top up the UREA tank as
soon as possible with at
least 3 litres of UREA. If

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

IMPORTANT
25) The presence of water in the fuel supply circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular
engine operation. If the
symbol appears (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.

106) After the adjustment, always
check that the cursor to which
the ring is fastened is locked
in one of the preset positions.
Release the grip and push
downwards to enable the locking
device to click if the grip has
not been released in one of the
possible positions.SBR SYSTEM
IN BRIEF
The vehicle is fitted with a Seat Belt
Remindersystem (SBR), consisting of
a buzzer and a flashing warning light
on the instrument panel which
warns the driver that the seat belt
must be fastened.
The buzzer can be deactivated (until the
next engine stop) as follows:
❒fasten the driver's seat belt;
❒turn the ignition key to the MAR-ON
position;
❒wait for over 20 seconds and then
release one of the seat belts.
For permanent deactivation, contact a
Fiat Dealership.
With digital display, the SBR system
can only be reactivated at a Fiat
Dealership.
With multifunction display, the SBR
system can also be reactivated through
the set-up menu.
PRETENSIONERS
To increase the protective efficiency of
the front seat belts, the vehicle is fitted
with pretensioners. These devices, in
the event of a head-on crash or side
impact, rewind the seat belts a few
centimetres. In this way, they ensure
that the belts fit tightly to the wearer
before the restraining action begins.
The retractor locks to indicate that the
pretensioner has intervened; the seat
belt cannot be drawn back up even
when guiding it manually.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action of
the pretensioner, wear the seat belt
tight to the chest and pelvis.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the
pretensioner which is not harmful and
does not involve any fire hazard.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication. Any
changes to its original conditions will
invalidate its efficiency. If, due to
unusual natural events (floods, sea
storms, etc.), the device has been
affected by water and mud, it must
absolutely be replaced.

Manual deactivation of
front passenger side
airbag and side bag
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If a child must of necessity be carried
on the front seat facing backwards, the
front passenger side airbag and side
bag for chest protection (for
versions/markets where provided) can
be deactivated.
IMPORTANT To manually deactivate the
passenger side front airbag and side
bag for chest protection (for
versions/markets where provided), refer
to the "Display" paragraph in the
"Knowing the instrument panel"
chapter. The LED on the button
switches on in case of deactivation.
The LED next to the
fig. 168 symbol
on the dashboard shows the passenger
side protection status. If the LED is off,
the passenger side protection is
activated.When the passenger side front airbag
and side bag for chest protection
(for versions/markets where provided)
are activated again, the LED switches
off.
When the vehicle is started (key in
MAR-ON position), the LED turns on for
approx. 8 seconds, provided that at
least 5 seconds have elapsed from the
previous switching off. If not, contact
a Fiat Dealership.
If the vehicle is switched off/on again in
less than 5 seconds the LED may
remain off. In this case, to check
correct LED operation, switch the
vehicle off, wait at least 5 seconds and
switch on again.
During the first 8 seconds, the
activation of the LED does not actually
show the passenger protection status,
but only checks its correct operation.

IMPORTANT The front airbags and/or
side bags 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,
vehicle falling into big potholes or
depressions in the road.
IMPORTANT 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.
IMPORTANT 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
only be carried out at a Fiat Dealership.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".
IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front
airbags and front side bags are
deployed differently according to the
type of collision. Failure to deploy
of one of the devices does not
necessarily indicate a system
malfunction.
WARNING
121) Never rest your head, arms or
elbows on the doors, on the
windows or in the window bag
area as this could cause injuries
during the inflation phase.
122) Never lean your head, arms and
elbows out of the window.123) If when turning the key to
MAR-ON the warning light
does not turn on or if it stays
on when travelling (together with
the message on the multifunction
display, for versions/markets
where provided), there could be a
fault in the safety systems; in
this event, airbags or
pretensioners may not trigger in
the case of impact or, in a lower
number of cases, they could be
triggered accidentally. Contact a
Fiat Dealership immediately to
have the system checked.
124) Do not cover the backrest of
the front or rear seats with covers
which are not suitable for use
with side bags.
125) 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.
126) Always drive keeping your
hands on the steering wheel rim
so that the airbag can inflate
freely if necessary. Do not drive
with your body bent forward.
Keep your back straight against
the backrest.

SAFETY

Traffic and road
conditions
Rather high consumption levels are
linked to situations with heavy traffic, for
instance when travelling in queues
with frequent use of the lower gears or
in cities with many traffic lights. Winding
mountain roads and rough road
surfaces also adversely affect
consumption.
Stops in traffic
During prolonged hold-ups (e.g. level
crossings) the engine should be
switched off.TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT
INFORMATION
The vehicle must be provided with a
type-approved tow hook and adequate
electrical system to tow caravans or
trailers. Installation should be carried
out by specialised personnel who
will issue the required papers for
travelling on roads.
Install any specific and/or additional
door mirrors as specified by the
Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, the
braking 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 of the trailer on the vehicle
tow hook will reduce the loading
capacity of the vehicle by the same
amount. Consider the weight of the
trailer fully laden, including accessories
and luggage, to make sure you do
not exceed the maximum towable
weight (shown on the vehicle
registration document).Do not exceed the speed limits specific
to each country you are driving in, in
the case of vehicles towing trailers.
In any case, the top speed must not
exceed 100 km/h.
You are advised to fit a suitable
stabiliser to the trailer drawbar.
In the vehicles equipped with parking
sensors, after fitting the tow hook
malfunctioning warnings may be
displayed, as some parts (tow bar, ball
tow hook) may be within the sensor
detection range. In this case the
detection range must be adjusted or
the parking assistance function must be
deactivated.
140) 141)
INSTALLING THE TOW
HOOK
The towing device should be fastened
to the body by specialised personnel
according to any additional and/or
integrative information supplied by the
Manufacturer of the device.
The towing device must meet current
regulations with reference to Directive
94/20/EC and subsequent
amendments.
For any version the towing device used
must match the towable weight of the
vehicle on which it is to be installed.
