STARTING THE ENGINE
EMERGENCY START-UP
If the instrument panel warning light
Ystays on permanently, contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately.
JUMP STARTING fig. 1
If the battery is flat, the engine may be
started using an auxiliary battery with an
equal or slightly higher capacity than the
flat one. Proceed as follows to start the car:
❒connect the positive terminals (+near
the terminal) of the two batteries with
a jump lead;
❒with a second lead, connect the nega-
tive terminal (–) of the auxiliary battery
to an earthing point
Eon the engine or
the gearbox of the car to be started;
❒start the engine.
❒when the engine has been started, fol-
low the sequence above in reverse or-
der to remove the leads.
If after a few attempts the engine does not
start, do not keep trying but contact a Fiat
Dealership.IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the
negative terminals of the two batteries:
sparks could ignite explosive gas released
from the battery. If the auxiliary battery is
installed on another car, prevent acciden-
tal contact between metallic parts of the
two cars.
IMPORTANT For cars with Start&Stop
system, in case of starting by booster bat-
tery, refer to "Dashboard and controls"
chapter, paragraph "Start&Stop system".
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. This could
cause fuel to flow into the catalytic con-
verter and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake
booster and the power steering system
are not active until the engine is started,
so you will need to apply much more force
to the brake pedal or steering wheel.
This procedure must be per-
formed by expert personnel
because incorrect actions may cause
considerable electrical discharge. Fur-
thermore, battery fluid is poisonous
and corrosive: avoid contact with skin
and eyes. Keep naked flames and lit
cigarettes away from the battery. Do
not create sparks.

RECHARGING
THE BATTERY
IMPORTANT The battery recharging pro-
cedure is provided for information pur-
poses only. You are recommended to go
to a Fiat Dealership to have this operation
performed.
We recommend recharging the battery
slowly for approximately 24 hours at low
amperage. Rapid charging with high cur-
rents could damage the battery.
VERSIONS WITHOUT
Start&Stop SYSTEM
Charge the battery as follows:
❒disconnect battery negative terminal;
❒connect the charger cables to the bat-
tery terminals, observing the polarity;
❒turn on the charger;
❒when you have finished, turn the charg-
er off before disconnecting it from the
battery;
❒reconnect battery negative terminal.
fig. 41F0M0518m
VERSIONS WITH Start&Stop
SYSTEM (with dummy pole)
fig. 41
(for versions/markets, where provided)
To charge, proceed as follows:
❒disconnect the quick-release negative
terminal Afrom the negative dummy
pole Bbecause the battery negative
pole Chas a sensor Dmonitoring the
battery conditions, that should never
be disconnected from the negative pole
C(unless the battery is replaced);
❒connect the battery charger positive ca-
ble to the battery positive pole Eand
the negative cable to the dummy pole
B;
❒switch on the battery charger. At the
end of the charging process, switch the
charger off before disconnecting it;
❒after disconnecting the battery charg-
er, reconnect the quick-release nega-
tive terminal Ato the dummy pole B.

RAISING THE CAR
If the car needs to be lifted, go to a Fiat
Dealership which is equipped with the arm
hoist or workshop lift.
The car should be lifted side-on only, by
putting the ends of the arms or the work-
shop lifting device in the areas shown in
the diagram.
Do not try to rechargea frozen
battery; defrost it first to pre-
vent the risk of explosion. If the bat-
tery was frozen, have it inspected by
specialised personnel before recharg-
ing to check that the internal ele-
ments are not damaged and that the
casing is not cracked, which could
cause poisonous, corrosive gas to leak.
WARNING
fig. 42F0M0513m
Battery fluid is poisonous
and corrosive: avoid contact
with your skin and eyes. The battery
must be recharged in a ventilated
place away from naked flames or
possible sources of sparks to avoid the
risk of explosion and fire.
WARNING
VERSIONS WITH Start&Stop
SYSTEM fig. 42
(without dummy pole)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
To charge, proceed as follows:
❒disconnect the connector A(pressing
the button B) from the sensor Cmon-
itoring the battery conditions, on the
negative pole Dof the battery;
❒connect the battery charger positive ca-
ble Eand the negative cable to the ter-
minal of sensor D, according to figure;
❒turn on the battery charger. At the end
of the charging process, switch the bat-
tery charger off;
❒after disconnecting the battery charg-
er, reconnect the connector Ato the
sensor Caccording to figure.
