What it means What to do
LOW DIESEL EMISSIONS ADDITIVE (UREA) LEVEL
WARNING
The first 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 an acoustic warning
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).
48)
Top up the UREA tank as soon as possible with at
least 3 litres of UREA. If topping up is done with
autonomy tank UREA to zero, you must wait 2 minutes
before starting the vehicle.
WATER IN DIESEL FILTER (Diesel versions)

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

ABS SYSTEM
This is an integral part of the braking
system, which prevents one or more
wheels from locking and slipping
regardless of the road surface
conditions and braking intensity,
ensuring control of the vehicle even
during emergency braking.
The system intervenes during braking
when the wheels are about to lock,
typically in emergency braking or
low-grip conditions, when locking may
be more frequent.
The ABS ensures the direction of the
vehicle while braking and optimises the
braking distances at the same time.
The system also improves control and
stability of the vehicle when braking
on a surface on which the grip of the
left and right wheels differs, or when
braking while cornering.
The system is completed by EBD
(Electronic Braking Force Distribution),
which distributes the braking action
between the front and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT For maximum efficiency of
the braking system, a bedding-in
period of about 500 km is needed:
during this period it is better to avoid
sharp, repeated and prolonged braking.
49)
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can feel that the ABS has
come into action because the brake
pedal pulsates slightly and the system
gets noisier: it means that the vehicle
speed should be altered to suit the type
of road surface.
50) 51) 52) 53) 54) 55) 56)
MSR SYSTEM
(Motor Schleppmoment Regelung)
This is an integral part of the ABS
system and prevents the drive wheels
from locking, which could happen,
for example, if the accelerator pedal is
released suddenly or in the case of
shifting down suddenly in conditions of
poor grip. In these conditions, the
engine braking effect could cause the
drive wheels to slip, resulting in a loss
of vehicle stability. In these situations,
the system intervenes, restoring torque
to the engine in order to conserve
vehicle stability and increase safety.
WARNING
49)The ABS gets the most from the
available grip, but it cannot improve it; you
should therefore take every care when
driving on slippery surfaces and not take
unnecessary risks.50)When the ABS cuts in and you feel the
brake pedal pulsating, do not remove
your foot, but keep the pedal pushed
down; in doing so you, will stop in the
shortest distance possible under the road
conditions at the time.
51)If the ABS system intervenes, this
indicates that the traction of the tyres on
the road is nearing its limit. You must slow
down to a speed compatible with the
available traction.
52)The ABS cannot overrule the natural
laws of physics, and cannot increase
the grip available according to the
condition of the road.
53)The ABS system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to excessive
speed on corners, driving on low-grip
surfaces or aquaplaning.
54)The capability of the ABS must never
be tested irresponsibly and dangerously, in
such a way as to compromise personal
safety and the safety of others.
55)For the correct operation of the ABS,
the tyres must of necessity be the same
make and type on all wheels, in perfect
condition and, above all, of the prescribed
type and dimensions.
56)If the space-saver wheel (for
versions/markets, where provided) is used,
the ABS keeps operating. Always
remember that the space-saver wheel,
being smaller than the original wheel,
provides less grip.
81

HILL DESCENT CONTROL
(HDC) SYSTEM
It is an integral part of the ESC and is
aimed at keeping the vehicle at a
constant speed during a descent,
operating autonomously on the brakes
in various ways at the same time. In this
way the vehicle stability and completely
safe driving are guaranteed, above all
in poor grip conditions and/or steep
descents.
To activate the system, reach a speed
slower than 25 km/h and press the
corresponding button A fig. 83; the LED
on the button turns on and the display
shows a dedicated message.
After reaching the desired speed,
release the accelerator and brake
pedals completely (the LED on the
button flashes). If you want to
increase/decrease the speed, press the
accelerator/brake pedals again.IMPORTANT Do not use the device
with the gearbox in neutral position.
IMPORTANT It is important to engage a
gear suitable for the set speed, to
prevent the engine from stalling.
When this function is active the brake
lights turn on automatically.
While the HDC system is operating it is
also possible to take control of the
vehicle again by pressing the brake and
accelerator pedals.
If the function is not made available
when the button is pressed, this could
be due to brake overheating. In this
case, wait a few minutes before using
the function again.
IMPORTANT The system is available for
speeds below 25 km/h.
IMPORTANT On exceeding 25 km/h,
the HDC system is disabled and
remains ready to operate again (the
LED on the button remains on) when
the vehicle returns below 25 km/h.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 50 km/h,
the HDC system turns off completely
(the LED on the button turns off) and
any autonomous action on the brakes
is disabled. To reactivate it, press the
dedicated button again when the speed
is again below 25 km/h.
12)
WARNING
57)The ESC system can’t overrule the
natural laws of physics, and can’t increase
the grip available according to the
condition of the road.
58)The ESC system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to excessive
speed on corners, driving on low-grip
surfaces or aquaplaning.
59)The capability of the ESC system must
never be tested irresponsibly and
dangerously, in such a way as to
compromise personal safety and the safety
of others.
60)For the correct operation of the ESC
and ASR system it is vital that the tyres are
the same make and the same type on all
the wheels, in perfect condition and, above
all, the recommended type and size.
61)The performance of the ESC and ASR
systems must not encourage the driver
to take unnecessary risks. Driving style
must always be suitable for road
conditions, visibility and traffic. The driver
is, in any case, responsible for safe driving.
62)The HBA system cannot increase
tyre grip on the road over the limits
imposed by laws of physics: always drive
carefully according to the conditions of the
road surface.
63)The HBA system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to excessive
speed on bends, travelling on low-grip
surfaces or aquaplaning.

SAFETY

The TPMS does not replace the
correct tyre maintenance. It is up to the
driver to maintain the correct tyre
pressure level measuring it with
a suitable pressure switch. This is
necessary even if the decrease in the
inflation pressure value does not cause
the tyre pressure control warning light
to switch on.
The TPMS warns the driver of any
condition of insufficient tyre pressure
If this drops below the insufficient
pressure limit for any reason including
low temperature and normal pressure
loss of the tyre.
The seasonal temperature changes
affect tyre pressure.
The TPMS uses wireless devices with
electronic sensors mounted on the
wheel rims to constantly monitor the
value of tyre pressure. The sensors
mounted on each wheel as part of the
valve stem transmit various information
of the tyres to the receiver module, in
order to calculate the pressure.
IMPORTANT Monitoring and
maintaining the correct pressure in all
four tyres are particularly important.Tyre pressure monitoring system
low pressure warnings
The system warns the driver if one or
more tyres are flat by turning on the
warning light on the instrument
panel (together with a warning message
and an acoustic signal).
In this case, stop the vehicle as soon as
possible, check the inflation pressure
of each tyre and inflate to the cold tyre
pressure value prescribed for the
vehicle. The system will automatically
update and after receiving the tyre
pressure update the tyre pressure
control warning light switches off. You
may need to drive the vehicle for about
20 minutes at a speed higher than 20
km/h to allow the system to receive this
information.
TPMS operation faults
The system fault is indicated by the
corresponding warning light
, which
first flashes for 75 seconds and then
stays on continuously. This can occur in
any of the following situations:
interference caused by electronic
devices or radio frequency emissions
similar to those of the TPM sensors.
Application of tinted films which
interfere with the signals of the radio
waves.
Presence of snow or ice on the
wheels or the wheel arches.
Use of snow chains.
Use of wheels/tyres not equipped
with TPM sensors.
The space-saver wheel is not
equipped with the tyre pressure control
sensor. Therefore, the tyre pressure is
not controlled by the system.
If the space-saver wheel replaces a
tyre with a pressure lower than the
insufficient pressure limit, an acoustic
signal will be emitted and the
warning light will turn on at the next
start-up.
When the original tyre is repaired or
replaced and it is mounted back on
the vehicle to replace the space-saver
wheel, the TPMS will update
automatically and the warning light will
switch off, provided that the pressure of
none of the four tyres is below the
insufficient pressure limit. You may need
to drive the vehicle for about 20
minutes at a speed higher than 20
km/h to allow the TPMS to receive this
information.
87

When the device is turned on, the
warning light turns on together with
the corresponding message on the
instrument panel.
Storing vehicle speed
Proceed as follows:
turn the ring A fig. 110 - fig. 111 to
the ON position or
(depending
on the version) and press the
accelerator pedal to take the vehicle to
the desired speed;
move the stalk upwards (+) for at
least one second, then release it. The
vehicle speed is now stored and you
can therefore release the accelerator
pedal.
Increasing/reducing the stored
speed
Once the Cruise Control is activated,
you can increase the speed by moving
the lever upwards (+) or decrease it
by moving the lever downwards (-).
Each movement of the stalk will
correspond to a slight reduction in
speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping
the stalk held downwards will decrease
the speed continuously.
Turning the device off
The device can be switched off by the
driver in the following ways:
turning ring nut A to OFF orO
(according to the version);
by switching off the engine;
Deactivating the function
The device can be switched off by the
driver in the following ways:
turning ring nut A to OFF orO
(according to the version);
pressing the button B, both with
symbolIIand symbol CANC/RES, the
system pauses;
by switching off the engine;
by pressing the brake pedal or
operating the handbrake;
by pressing the clutch pedal;
requesting a gear shift with an
automatic transmission in sequential
mode;
with the vehicle speed below the set
limit
by pressing the accelerator pedal; in
this case the system is not actually
turned off but the acceleration request
takes priority; the Cruise Control
remains activated, without the need to
press the CANC/RES button to restore
the previous conditions once the
acceleration is over.
The device is automatically switched off
in the following cases:
if the ABS or ESC systems
intervene;
in the event of system failure.
120) 121)
SPEED LIMITER
This device allows the vehicle speed to
be limited to a value set by the driver.
The maximum speed can be set both
with vehicle stationary and in motion.
The minimum speed that can be set is
30 km/h.

STARTING AND DRIVING

When the device is active, the vehicle
speed depends on the accelerator
pedal, until the programmed speed limit
is reached (see "Speed limit
programming" paragraph).
If necessary (in the event of overtaking
for example), the set speed limit can
be exceeded by fully depressing the
accelerator pedal.
By gradually reducing the pressure on
the accelerator pedal, the function
will be reactivated as soon as the
vehicle speed drops below the
programmed speed.
Turning the device on
To turn the device on, turn the ring A
fig. 112 to the
position.
When the device is turned on, the
warning light on the instrument
panel turns on and, on some versions,
a message and the last programmed
speed value appears on the display.Automatic device disable
The device is disabled automatically in
the event of fault in the system.
WARNING
120)When travelling with the device active,
never move the gear lever to neutral.
121)If the device is faulty, turn ring nut A
toO, check the condition of the fuse
and contact a Fiat Dealership.
SPEED BLOCK
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The vehicle is equipped with a speed
limitation function that can be set at the
user's request to one of 4 predefined
values: 90, 100, 110, 130 km/h.
To activate/deactivate this function,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
Following the operation, a sticker will be
applied to the windscreen showing the
maximum speed setting.
IMPORTANT The speedometer could
indicate a higher maximum speed than
the effective one, set by the Dealership,
in accordance with the regulations in
force.
