What it means What to do
redINCOMPLETE DOOR/LOAD COMPARTMENT
CLOSURE
On certain versions the warning light switches on
when one or more doors or the load compartment are
not completely shut.
On some versions, the display shows a dedicated
message that indicates left/right front door or rear/load
compartment door opening.
A buzzer will sound when doors/tailgate are open and
the vehicle is moving.
redPOWER STEERING FAILURE
When the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON the
warning light on the dial turns on, but it should turn off
after a few seconds.
If the warning light stays on together with the message
shown on the display and a buzzer, the power steering
is ineffective and the effort on the steering wheel
increases significantly even though the vehicle can be
steered.Contact a Fiat Dealership.
redSELF-LEVELLING SUSPENSION FAILURE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light comes on when the ignition key is
turned to MAR, but should go off after a few seconds.
The warning light switches on when a fault is present
in the self-levelling suspension system.

ASR (AntiSlip
Regulation) SYSTEM
It is an integral part of the ESC system.
It automatically operates in the event
of one or both drive wheels slipping,
loss of grip on wet roads (aquaplaning)
and acceleration on slippery, snowy
or icy roads, etc.
Depending on the slipping conditions,
two different control systems are
activated:
if the slipping involves both drive
wheels, the ASR intervenes reducing
the power transmitted by the engine;
if the slipping only involves one
of the drive wheels, it intervenes
automatically braking the wheel that is
slipping.
60)
Engagement/ disengagement of the
ASR system
The ASR is switched on automatically
each time the engine is started.
While driving, the ASR can be switched
off and subsequently switched on
again by pressing the ASR OFF button
(A fig. 82).
61)
On some versions, the intervention of
the system is indicated by a message
shown on the display.When the system is not active, the LED
on the button ASR OFF turns on and,
on some versions, a message appears
on the display.
If the ASR is disengaged during driving,
it is automatically reactivated when
the vehicle is next started.
When travelling on snowy roads with
snow chains, it may be helpful to turn
the ASR off: in fact, in these conditions,
the driving wheels skidding when
moving off gives you better traction.
HBA SYSTEM
(Hydraulic Brake Assist)
The HBA system is designed to
improve the vehicle’s braking capacity
during emergency braking. The system
detects an emergency braking by
monitoring the speed and strength with
which the brake pedal is pressed,
thereby applying the optimal brake
pressure.This can reduce the braking distance:
the HBA system therefore completes
the ABS.
Maximum assistance from the HBA
system is obtained pressing the brake
pedal very quickly. In addition, the
brake pedal must be pressed
continuously during braking, avoiding
intermittent presses, to benefit from the
system.
Do not reduce pressure on the brake
pedal until braking is no longer
necessary.
The HBA system is deactivated when
the brake pedal is released.
62) 63) 64)
ERM ELECTRONIC ROLLOVER
MITIGATION SYSTEM
(Electronic Rollover Mitigation)
The system monitors the tendency of
the wheels to rise from the ground if the
driver performs extreme manoeuvres
like quick steering to avoid an obstacle,
especially in poor road conditions.
If these conditions occur, the system
intervenes on the brakes and engine
power to reduce the possibility that the
wheels are raised from the ground.
It is not possible to avoid the tendency
to roll over if this is due to reasons
such as driving on high side gradients,
collision with objects or other vehicles.

16)If the engine fails to start with a gear
engaged, the potentially dangerous
situation due to the fact that the
transmission is automatically placed in
neutral will be signalled by a buzzer.
17)If the warning light
flashes for 60
seconds after starting or during an
extended towing period, this indicates a
problem in the glow plug preheating
system. Use the vehicle normally if the
engine starts, but contact a Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible.
18)Remember that the brake servo and
power steering are not operational until the
engine has been started, so you need to
apply much more force than usual to
the brake pedal and steering wheel.
19)Never bump start the engine by
pushing, towing or coasting downhill. This
could cause fuel to flow into the catalytic
converter and damage it beyond repair.
20)A quick burst on the accelerator before
stopping the engine serves no practical
purpose; it wastes fuel and is especially
damaging to turbocharged engines.
21)In some cases, when the engine
switches off, the fan could activate for max.
120 seconds.
WHEN PARKED
116)
22)
Proceed as follows when parking and
leaving the vehicle:
engage the gear (on a slope, engage
first gear if the vehicle is facing uphill
or reverse if it is facing downhill) and
leave the wheels steered;
stop the engine and engage the
handbrake;
always remove the ignition key.
If the vehicle is parked on a steep
slope, it is advisable to block the
wheels with a wedge or stone.
On versions equipped with automatic
transmission (Comfort matic), wait
for the letterPto appear on the display
before releasing the brake pedal.
IMPORTANTNEVERleave the vehicle
with the gearbox in neutral (or, on
versions equipped with automatic
(Comfort matic) transmission, before
putting the shift lever in thePposition).HANDBRAKE
Handbrake engagement:The
handbrake lever is located to the left of
the driver's seat. Pull the lever upwards
to engage the handbrake and ensure
that the vehicle does not move.
Handbrake disengagement:slightly
raise the lever, hold the button A
pressed and check that the
warning light switches off on the
instrument panel.
Press the brake pedal when carrying
out this operation to prevent the vehicle
from moving accidentally.
WARNING
116)Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle. Always remove the ignition key
when leaving the vehicle and take it out
with you.
WARNING
22)If the vehicle is equipped with
self-levelling air suspension, always check
that there is sufficient space above the roof
and around the vehicle when parking.
Indeed, the vehicle could raise (or lower)
automatically depending on load or
temperature changes.

IN AN EMERGENCY
Page 183 of 296
take the screwdriver provided from
the box and prise up at the point
shown to raise the cap C fig. 183;
take the tow ring D from the box and
screw it onto the threaded pin fig. 183.
The rear ring B fig. 184 is located at
the point shown in the diagram.
WARNING
172)Screw on the tow hook and check
that it stops at the end of travel position.
173)Before towing, switch off the steering
lock (see "Starting device" paragraph
under the "Knowing your car" section).
174)Remember that the brake servo and
the electric power steering are not available
during towing operations. Significantly
greater force must be exerted on the brake
pedal and on the steering wheel to operate
them.175)Do not use flexible cables for towing
and avoid jerking. During towing
operations, make sure that the fastened
joint does not damage adjoining
components.
176)When towing the vehicle comply with
the specific rules of the Highway Code
regarding the towing device and the
behaviour on the road.
177)Do not start the engine while towing
the vehicle.
178)Towing must be made exclusively on
roads/streets; the device must not be used
to recover the vehicle if it got off the road.
179)Towing must not be made for getting
past significant obstacles on the road
(e.g. heaps of snow or material on the road
surface).
180)Towing must take place with the two
vehicles (one towing, the other towed)
aligned as much as possible; towing by
roadside assistance vehicles, too, must
take place with the two vehicles aligned as
much as possible
