Here are some useful tips to save fuel and
minimize polluting emissions of CO
2and
other pollutants (nitric oxide, unburnt hy-
drocarbons, fine dusts etc…).GENERAL REMARKS
Vehicle maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out
in accordance with the “Scheduled Service
Plan”.
Tyres
Check tyre pressure regularly at least
once every four weeks: excessively low
pressure will increase consumption be-
cause rolling resistance will be higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot.
The weight of the vehicle (especially when
driving in town) and its trim greatly affect
fuel consumption and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from
the roof after use. These accessories de-
crease aerodynamic penetration of the ve-
hicle and have a negative effect on fuel
consumption. It is better to use a trailer
to transport particularly bulky objects.Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the amount
of time needed. The rear heated window,
additional headlights, windscreen wipers
and heater fan need a considerable
amount of energy, therefore increasing fu-
el consumption (up to +25% in the urban
cycle).
Climate control
The climate control system leads to high-
er fuel consumption (up to +20% on av-
erage): use air vents only when the ex-
ternal temperature allows it.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified spoilers may ad-
versely affect air drag and fuel consump-
tion levels.

MESSAGES
SEAT BELTS
NOT FASTENED
(red)
The warning light in the panel
turns on steadily when the vehicle is not
running and the seat belt on the driver’s
side is not correctly fastened. The warn-
ing light blinks, and a buzzer goes off, when
the vehicle is running and the front seat
belts are not correctly fastened.
The buzzer of the S.B.R. (Seat Belt Re-
minder) system can only be switched off
by a Fiat Dealership.
On some versions the system can be re-
activated from the setup menu.INCOMPLETE
DOOR LOCKING (red)
On certain versions the warning
light turns on when one or more doors or
the tailgate are not properly shut.
On certain versions the dedicated mes-
sage is displayed.
MINIMUM
ENGINE OIL LEVEL
(red)
Turning the ignition key to MARthe
warning light on the panel turns on, but
it should go off after a few seconds.
The warning light goes on in the panel
when the oil level drops below the mini-
mum value. Top up the oil to the correct
level (see “Level checking” in section
“Maintenance and care”).
On certain versions the dedicated mes-
sage is displayed.
<´
k
Note that engine oil is exhausted faster
under the following circumstances:
– use of the vehicle prevalently for city dri-
ving, requiring more frequent regenera-
tion of DPF
– use of the vehicle for short drives, in
which the engine does not have time to
reach its regular operating temperature
– repeated interruption of the regenera-
tion process, signalled by the DPF warn-
ing light coming on.
Exhausted engine oil should
be replaced as soon as pos-
sible after the warning light comes on,
never more than 500 km after the
warning light first comes on. Failure
to change the oil within the first 500
km may result in severe damage to
the engine and will result in forfeiture
of the warranty. Remember that
when the warning light flashes, it does
not mean that the level of engine oil
is low, so if the light flashes you must
not top up.

PERIODIC CHECKING
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys,
check and top up if required:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions;
❒operation of lights (headlights, direction
indicators, emergency lights, etc.);
❒operation of the windscreen wiper/
washer system, position and wear of
the windscreen and rear window wiper
blades (where provided);
Every 3,000 km check the following and
top-up, if required: engine oil level.
You are recommended to use
PETRONAS LUBRICANTSproducts,
designed and produced specifically for Fi-
at vehicles (see table “Refuelling” in sec-
tion “Technical specifications”).
DEMANDING
VEHICLE USE
Should prevailing use of the vehicle be un-
der one of the following specially heavy
conditions:
❒trailer towing;
❒dusty roads;
❒short repeated distances (less than 7-
8 km) and with external temperatures
below zero;
❒frequently idling engine or long distance
low speed driving (e.g. taxis or door-to-
door deliveries) or in case of a long
term inactivity;
❒urban driving;
perform the following inspections more
frequently than shown on the Scheduled
Servicing Plan:
❒check front disk brake pad conditions
and wear;❒check cleanness of bonnet and boot
locks and lever cleanness and lubrica-
tion;
❒visually inspect the conditions of: the
engine, gearbox, transmission, pipes and
hoses (exhaust - fuel - brakes), rubber
parts (boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.);
❒check the battery and the battery fluid
(electrolyte) (this check must be car-
ried out by skilled personnel only or by
the Fiat Dealership – also refer to the
instructions provided in the “Battery”
paragraph of this section);
❒visually check the various drive belt
conditions;
❒check pollen filter and replace it, if re-
quired;
❒check air cleaner and replace it, if re-
quired.
