check transmission fluid FIAT FIORINO 2017 Owner handbook (in English)

If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions
(e.g. towing trailers uphill or fully loaded): slow
down and, if the light stays on, stop the vehicle.
Stop for two or three minutes with the engine
running and slightly accelerated to assist better
coolant circulation. Then switch the engine off.
Check correct fluid level in the vessel as described
above.
IMPORTANT On particularly demanding journeys, it
is advisable to keep the engine on and slightly
accelerated for a few minutes before switching it off.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
LOW BATTERY CHARGE (red)
The warning light comes on when the ignition key is
turned to MAR, but it should go out as soon as
the engine has started (with the engine running at
idle speed a brief delay before going out is
acceptable).
If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
GEARBOX FAILURE (red)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning
light turns on but should go off after a few seconds.
The warning light flashes (together with a message in
the display and an acoustic signal) to indicate that
the gearbox is faulty.
The warning light can switch on even in case of
transmission overheating, after a particularly
demanding use. In this case an engine performance
limitation is carried out.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
DPF (PARTICULATE TRAP)
CLEANING UNDERWAY (amber)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning
light turns on but should go off after a few seconds.
The warning light stays on constantly to notify the
driver that the DPF system needs to eliminate
captured pollutants (particulate) by the regeneration
process.
A specific message will appear on the display when
the warning light comes on (for versions/markets,
where provided).
