technical data FIAT IDEA 2007 1.G Owners Manual

Cruising range= shows the distance (in km or
miles) that the car can still cover before needing fuel,
assuming that driving conditions are kept unvaried.
The display will show “- - - -” in the following cases:
❒value for range to empty lower than 50 km or fuel
level below 4 litres; in this event before “- - - -”
the message “Warning, limited range” will be
displayed (this message will be displayed also if not
in TRIP COMPUTER mode);
❒in case of car parked with engine running for a
long period, when the car moves off the range to
empty indication will be displayed again.
Travelled distance= shows the km (or miles)
covered from last reset (*).
Average fuel consumption= shows the average
consumption calculated from last reset (*), this value
can be expressed in l/100 km or mpg.
Instant consumption= shows the fuel consumption
variation updated every second, it can be expressed in
l/100 km or mpg. In case of car parked with engine
running the display will show “- - - -”. When the car
moves off the instant consumption indication will be
displayed again.
Average speed= shows the average speed of the
car in relation with total time elapsed from last reset
(*), this value can be expressed in km/h or in mph.Travel time= time elapsed from last reset (*).
(*) Reset can be:
– “manual”, reset is performed by the driver by
pressing the relevant button (see paragraph
“Control buttons”)
– “automatic”, reset is performed when the travelled
distance reaches 3999.9 km or when travel time
reaches 99:59 (99 hours and 59 minutes)
– after reconnecting the battery.
IMPORTANT Lacking information, Trip computer
values are displayed with “- - - -”. When restoring
normal operating conditions after a failure, calculation
will restart regularly without resetting values.
IMPORTANT After battery disconnection/connection
certain displayed values are equal to “- - - -” until
significant data for calculation are available.

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The devices for curtailing petrol engine emissions are the following:
❒three-way catalytic converter;
❒Lambda sensor;
❒fuel evaporation system.
In addition, do not let the engine run, even for a test, with one or more spark plugs disconnected.
The devices for curtailing diesel fuel engine emissions are the following:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒exhaust gas recirculation system (E.G.R.).
❒diesel particulate filter (DPF)
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF) (for 1.3 Multijet versions 90 HP)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechanical filter, integral with the exhaust system, that physically traps particulates present
in the exhaust gases of Diesel engines.
The diesel particular filter has been adopted to eliminate almost totally particulates in compliance with current / future
law regulations.
During normal use of the vehicle, the engine control unit records a set of data (e.g.: travel time, type of route, temperatures,
etc.) and it will then calculate how much particulates has been trapped by the filter.
Since this filter physically traps particulates, it shall be cleaned (reclaimed) at regular intervals by burning carbon particles.
Reclaiming procedure is controlled automatically by the engine control unit according to the filter conditions and the
conditions of use of the vehicle.
During reclaiming the following phenomena could take place: idling slight increase, fan activation, slight smoke increase,
high exhaust temperatures. These situations shall not be considered as faults and they do not affect vehicle performance
and environment.
If the dedicated message is displayed, refer to paragraph “Warning lights and messages”.

During normal service the catalyst reaches high temperatures. Do not therefore
park the car over inflammable materials (grass, dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire
hazard.WARNING

All restraint devices must bear the certification data,
together with the control brand, on a solidly fixed
label which must absolutely never be removed.Over 1.50 m in height, from the point of view of
restraint systems, children are considered as adults
and wear the seat belts normally.
Lineaccessori Fiat offers seats for each weight group,
which are the recommended choice, as they have been
designed and experimented specifically for Fiat cars.

WARNINGWith passenger’s air bag active, never place child’s seats with the cradle facing
backwards since the air bag activation could cause to the child serious injuries,
even mortal, regardless of the seriousness of the crash that triggered it. You are
advised to carry children always with proper restraint systems on the rear seats, as
this is the most protected position in the case of a crash.
WARNINGSERIOUS DANGER Should it be absolutely necessary to carry a baby on the front
passenger seat with a child's seat with the cradle facing backwards, deactivate the
passenger's air bags (front and side on the seat, where provided) using the key
switch (where provided) and then check warning light Fon the cluster to make
sure that deactivation has actually took place (see paragraph “ Manual
deactivation of passenger's air bag (front and side bags)”).
The front passenger's seat shall be adjusted in the most backward position to
prevent any contact between child's seat and dashboard.
