WINDOW WASHING
The right stalk fig. 41controls windscreen
wiper/washer and rear window wiper/
washer operation.
WINDSCREEN WASHER/WIPER
This can work only when the key is turned
to MAR.
The twist switch on the right stalk can be
moved to four different positions:
Owindscreen wiper off;
≤intermittent operation;
≥continuous slow operation;
¥continuous fast operation.
Move the stalk to position A(temporary)
to limit operation to the time for which
the stalk is held in this position. When re-
leased, the stalk returns to its default po-
sition, automatically stopping the wiper.Do not use the windscreen
wiper to remove layers of
snow or ice from the wind-
screen. In such conditions, the
windscreen wipers may be subjected to
excessive stress, prompting interven-
tion from the motor protection which
prevents operation for a few seconds.
If operation is not restored, even after
turning the key and restarting the en-
gine, go to a Fiat Dealership.
With the twist switch in position
≤, the
windscreen wiper will automatically adapt
to the speed of the car.IMPORTANT Replace the wiper blades as
specified in the “Car maintenance” sec-
tion.
fig. 41F0M0062m
“Smart washing” function
Pull the stalk towards the steering wheel
(temporary position) to operate the wind-
screen washer.
Keeping the stalk pulled for more than half
a second, with just one movement it is
possible to operate the washer jet and the
wiper at the same time.
The wiper stops working three strokes af-
ter releasing the stalk.
A further stroke 6 seconds later com-
pletes the wiping operation.

REAR WINDOW WASHER/WIPER
fig. 42
This can work only when the key is turned
to MAR.
The function stops when the stalk is re-
leased.
Turning the twist switch from Oto
'will
operate the rear window wiper as follows:
❒intermittent operation if the wind-
screen wiper is off;
❒synchronised operation (but with half-
stroke frequency) when the windscreen
wiper is on;
❒continuous operation with reverse en-
gaged and function on.Do not use the rear window
wiper to remove layers of
snow or ice. In such condi-
tions, the rear window wiper
may be subjected to excessive stress,
prompting intervention from the mo-
tor protection which prevents opera-
tion for a few seconds. If operation is
not restored, even after turning the key
and restarting the engine, go to a Fiat
Dealership.
The rear window wiper will run in con-
tinuous mode when the windscreen wiper
is on and reverse gear is engaged.
Pushing the stalk towards the dashboard
(temporary position) will activate the rear
window washer jet.
Keeping the stalk pushed for more than
half a second will also activate the rear
window wiper.
Smart wash function is activated when the
stalk is released, like for the windscreen
wiper.

WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
LOW ENGINE OIL
PRESSURE (red)
DEGRADED OIL (red)
(Multijet versions
with DPF)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR,
the warning light turns on but should go
out as soon as the engine is started.
Low engine oil pressure
The warning light turns on and stays on
constantly along with a message on the
display (in versions/markets where pro-
vided) when the system detects that en-
gine oil pressure is low.
v
If the warning light vturns on when the vehicle is
travelling (on certain versions to-
gether with a message on the display)
stop the engine immediately and con-
tact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
❒if the vehicle is used under de-
manding conditions (e.g. towing
trailers uphill or fully loaded): slow
down and, if the light stays on, stop the
car. Stop for 2 or 3 minutes with the
engine running and slightly accelerated
to assist better coolant circulation.
Then switch the engine off. Check cor-
rect fluid level as described above.
IMPORTANT On particularly demanding
journeys, it is advisable to keep the engine
on and slightly accelerated for a few min-
utes before switching it off.
A specific message is displayed on certain
versions.
LOW BATTERY
CHARGE (red)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR,
the warning light turns on but should go
out as soon as the engine is started (with
the engine idling, a brief delay can be ex-
pected).
If the warning light comes on, either per-
manently or intermittently, contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately.
w
Engine oil degraded
The warning light flashes and a specific
message appears on the display (for ver-
sions/markets where provided). The
warning light may flash in the following
ways, depending on the version:
– for 1 minute every two hours;
– for 3 minute cycles with the warning
light off for intervals of 5 seconds until oil
is changed.
After the initial warning, each time the en-
gine is started up, the warning light will
continue to flash in the same ways as de-
scribed above, until the oil is changed.
A specific message will appear on the dis-
play (for versions/markets where provid-
ed) in addition to the warning light.
If the warning light flashes, this does not
mean that the car is defective, but simply
informs the driver that it is now necessary
to change the oil as a result of regular
vehicle use.
Note that engine oil degrades faster un-
der the following circumstances:
– use of the vehicle mainly for city driving,
requiring more frequent regeneration of
the 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.

WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
Go to a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible if warning
light
Udoes not light up
when the key is turned to
MAR or if, while travelling, it either
comes on permanently or flashes
(along with a message on the display
on some versions). The operation of the
Uwarning light may be checked by
traffic police using appropriate equip-
ment. Respect the regulations in force
in the country where you are driving.
If the light flashes, come off the accelera-
tor pedal to reduce engine revs until the
warning light stops flashing; continue the
journey at moderate speed, trying to avoid
driving conditions that may cause further
flashing, and get to a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible. EOBD engine control
system failure
Under normal conditions, turning the ig-
nition key to MAR, the warning light turns
on but it should go off after the engine
starts. This indicates that the warning light
is working correctly. If the warning light ei-
ther stays on or comes on while travelling:
❒on permanently: this means there is
a fault in the supply/ignition system
which could cause high exhaust emis-
sions, loss of performance, poor han-
dling and high fuel consumption levels.
A specific message is displayed on certain
versions.
Under these conditions, the vehicle can
continue travelling at moderate speed
without demanding excessive effort from
the engine. Prolonged use of the car with
the warning light on may cause damage.
Go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as possi-
ble. The warning light goes out after the
fault disappears, but the indication is
stored in the system.
❒flashing: this indicates possible damage
to the catalytic converter (see “EOBD
system” in the “Dashboard and con-
trols” section). INJECTION SYSTEM
FAULT
(Multijet versions
– amber)
EOBD SYSTEM FAULT
(petrol versions – amber)
Injection system failure
Under normal conditions, turning the ig-
nition key to MAR, the warning light turns
on but it should go off after the engine
starts.
If the warning light stays on or comes on
when travelling, it means there is a fault in
the injection system which could cause
loss of performance, poor handling and
high fuel consumption levels.
A specific message is displayed on certain
versions.
Under these conditions, the vehicle can
continue travelling at moderate speed
without demanding excessive effort from
the engine. In any case, you should go to
a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

DPF (PARTICULATE
FILTER) CLEANING
IN PROGRESS
(only Multijet versions
with DPF – amber)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR
position, the warnintg light turns on but
should go off after a few seconds. The
warning light stays on constantly to noti-
fy the driver that the DPF system needs
to eliminate captured pollutants (particu-
late) by the regeneration process. The
warning light does not come on during
every DPF regeneration, but only when
driving conditions require notification to
the driver. The warning light will go off if
the vehicle stays in motion until regener-
ation has been completed. The process
normally takes about 15 minutes. The op-
timum conditions to end the process are
achieved by keeping the car in motion at
up to 60 km/h with an engine speed high-
er than 2000 rpm. This light coming on is
not a defect and therefore the car does
not need to go to the workshop. A spe-
cific message will appear on the display
when the warning light comes on (for ver-
sions/markets where provided).
hAlways drive at a speed ap-
propriate to the traffic con-
ditions, the weather and speed limits.
The engine may be turned off while
the DPF light is on; however, repeat-
ed interruption of the regeneration
process may result in premature
degradation of engine oil. For this
reason it is always advisable to wait
for the light to go off before turning
off the engine, following the instruc-
tions appearing above. It is not
a good idea to complete DPF regen-
eration with the vehicle stationary.
