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 reducing diesel fuel engine
emissions are the following:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒exhaust gas recirculation system
(E.G.R.);
❒diesel particulate filter (DPF)DPF (DIESEL
PARTICULATE FILTER)
(for 1.3 Multijet 90 HP - 1.3
Multijet 95 HP versions)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechan-
ical 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 reg-
ulations.
During normal use of the vehicle, the en-
gine 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 particulate,
it should be regenerated (cleaned) at reg-
ular intervals by burning carbon particles.
The regeneration procedure is controlled
automatically by the engine management
control unit according to the filter condi-
tions and vehicle use conditions.
The catalytic converter de-
velops high temperature dur-
ing operation. Do not park on grass,
dry leaves, pine needles or other flam-
mable material: fire risk.
WARNING
During the regeneration procedure, the
following situations may occur: limited in-
crease of idle speed, activation of electric
fan, limited increase of smoke, high tem-
peratures at the exhaust.
These are not faults; they do not impair
vehicle performance or damage the envi-
ronment. If the dedicated message is dis-
played, refer to section “Warning lights
and messages”.

Glow plugs
The warning light goes on when the key is
turned to MAR. It goes out as soon as the
glow plugs have reached the preset tem-
perature. Start the engine as soon as the
warning light goes out.
IMPORTANT With hot ambient temper-
ature, warning light stays on for very short
time.
Glow plug warming failure
The warning light will blink in the event
of a failure to the glow plug heating sys-
tem. Go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
The display will show the dedicated mes-
sage.

WATER IN DIESEL
FUEL FILTER (Multijet
versions - amber)
Turning the ignition key to MAR
the warning light turns on, but it should go
off after a few seconds.
The warning light
cturns on when there
is water in the diesel fuel filter.
The display will show the dedicated mes-
sage.
c
FIAT CODE
PROTECTION SYSTEM
FAILURE (amber)
Turning the key to MAR, the
warning light flashes once and then goes
off.
If with the ignition key at MAR, the warn-
ing light stays on, this indicates a possible
failure (see “Fiat Code system” in section
“Dashboard and controls”).
IMPORTANT The turning on at the same
time of the
UandYwarning lights in-
dicates a failure of the Fiat CODE system.
If with the engine running the warning light
Yflashes, this means that the car is not
protected by the engine inhibitor device
(see “Fiat Code system” in section “Dash-
board and controls”).
Contact Fiat Dealership to have all the key
stored.
Y
REAR FOG LIGHTS
(amber)
The warning light comes on
when the rear fog lights are on.

The presence of water in the
feeding circuit may cause se-
vere damage to the injection
system and irregular engine
operation. If warning light
clights up
(on some versions with the message on
the display), go to a Lancia Dealership
as soon as possible to have the system
bled. Water may have been introduced
in the tank if this appears immediate-
ly after refuelling: in this case, stop the
engine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.

YEARLY INSPECTION
PLAN
The following yearly inspection plan is rec-
ommended for cars clocking less than
20,000 km a year (e.g. approximately
15.000 km):
❒check tyre conditions/wear and pres-
sure (included spare wheel)
❒check lighting system operation (head-
lights, direction indicators, hazard
lights, boot, passenger compartment,
instrument panel warning lights, etc.)
❒check windscreen wiper/washer
(nozzle direction and blade wear)
❒check front disk brake pad conditions
and wear;
❒visually inspect the conditions of: en-
gine, gearbox, flexible and stiff piping
(exhaust, fuel feed, brakes), rubber
parts (boots, sleeves, bushings, etc.)
❒check cleanness of locks, bonnet and
boot and lever cleanness and lubrica-
tion
❒check battery charge;
❒visually check the various drive belt
conditions;
❒check and top up liquids if required
(engine coolant, brakes, windscreen
washer, battery, etc.)
❒change engine oil;
❒change engine oil filter;
❒change pollen filter (where provided).
ADDITIONAL
INTERVENTIONS
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys,
check and, if necessary, top up:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions.
Every 3,000 km check and, if necessary,
top up: engine oil level.
You are recommended to use
PETRONAS LUBRICANTS products, de-
signed and produced specifically for Fiat
cars (see table “Capacities” in section
“Technical specifications”).

IMPORTANT - Engine oil
Should prevailing use of the car be under
one of the following specially heavy con-
ditions:
❒trailer or caravan towing;
❒dusty roads;
❒short repeated distances (less than 7-
8 km) and with external temperatures
below zero;
❒frequently idling engines or long dis-
tance low speed driving (e.g. taxis or
door-to-door deliveries) or in case of
a long term inactivity;
change engine oil more frequently than
shown on the “Service Schedule”.
IMPORTANT - Air cleaner
When the car is used on dusty roads,
change the air cleaner more frequently
than shown on the “Service Schedule”.
Call a Fiat Dealership for doubts regard-
ing engine oil and air cleaner replacement.IMPORTANT - Pollen filter
It is advisable to replace the filtering ele-
ment more frequently if the car is used in
dusty or very polluted places. Specifical-
ly, replace if a lower air flow into the pas-
senger compartment is found.
IMPORTANT - Diesel filter
Using diesel not complying with European
Specification EN590 may lead to the need
to replace the diesel fuel filter more fre-
quently than shown in the “Service Sched-
ule”.IMPORTANT - Battery
Check the battery charge once a year,
preferably before the beginning to winter,
to prevent freezing of the electrolyte.
Perform this inspection more frequently
if the car is mainly used for short distances
or if electrical devices running with the key
off are installed, particularly after-market.
Check the battery level (electrolyte) more
frequently than shown on the “Service
Schedule” if the car is used in hot climates
or in particularly demanding conditions.
Take the car to a Fiat Deal-
ership for servicing. Make
sure you have the right equip-
ment, genuine Fiat spare
parts and consumables for ordinary,
minor interventions. Do not attempt
the operations if you lack the experi-
ence.

DRAINING CONDENSATION
(Multijet versions)
The presence of water in the
feeding circuit may cause se-
vere damage to the injection system
and irregular engine operation. If the
warning lights
con the cluster lights
up or a message appears on the re-
configurable multifunctional display
(some versions), contact a Fiat Deal-
ership to have the system bled. Wa-
ter may have been introduced in the
tank if this appears immediately af-
ter refuelling: in this case, stop the en-
gine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
WARNING
BATTERY
The car fits a low-maintenance battery: in
normal usage conditions the electrolyte
does not need topping up with distilled
water.
CHECKING CHARGE
AND ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
The operations must be carried out as de-
scribed in this Owner’s Handbook only by
specialised personnel. Topping must be
carried out by specialised personnel at a
Fiat Dealership.
The battery fluid is poiso-
nous and corrosive. Avoid
contact with the skin and eyes. Keep
naked flames and sources of sparks
away from the battery: risk of explo-
sion and fire.
WARNING
CHANGING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a gen-
uine spare part having the same specifi-
cations.
If a battery with different specifications is
fitted, the service intervals given in the
“Service schedule” in this section will no
longer apply.
Follow the battery manufacturer’s in-
structions for maintenance.
Running the battery with an
excessively low liquid level
will damage the battery beyond re-
pair and even cause an explosion.
WARNING
Incorrect assembly of electric
and electronic devices may
cause severe damage to your
car. Go to a Fiat Dealership if
you want to install accessories (alarms,
mobile phone, etc.): they will suggest
the most suitable devices and advise
you if a higher capacity battery needs
to be installed.
