1. One flash - the key code has been recognised.
The engine can be started.
2. Fixed light together with the message on the display - the key code has not been recognised. Fol-
low the emergency procedure to start the engine (see “In an emergency”).
3. Flashing - indicates that the car is not protected.
The engine can however be started.
POSSIBLE ICE ON ROAD
In versions with climate control system, this message will appear on the display along with the sym-
bol
√and the buzzer will sound when the outside temperature either reaches or is under 3°C to
inform you that the road could be icy.
FUEL CUT-OFF SWITCH (INERTIAL SWITCH)
The message will appear on the display when the switch trips.
INERT.SW ACTIVE is the only message which cannot be cleared by pressing a button. This mes-
sage will stay on the display until resetting the switch.
¢
If, after the message appears, you can smell petrol or see that the fuel feed system
is leaking, to avoid the risk of fire, do not reset the switch.WARNING

BODYWORK
PROTECTION FROM ATMOSPHERIC
AGENTS
The main causes of corrosion are:
❒atmospheric pollution;
❒salty air and humidity (coastal areas, or hot humid
climates);
❒seasonal environment conditions.
In addition, the abrasiveness of dust in the atmosphere
and sand carried by the wind as well as mud and
stones kicked up by other cars must not be
underestimated.
On your Fiat Multipla, Fiat implemented the best
manufacturing technologies to effectively protect the
bodywork against corrosion.These include:
❒painting products and systems which give the car
particular resistance to corrosion and abrasion;
❒use of galvanised (or pre-treated) steel sheets, with
high resistance to corrosion;
❒spraying the underbody, engine compartment,
wheelhouse internal parts and other parts with
highly protective wax products;
❒spraying of plastic parts, with a protective function,
in the most exposed points: underdoor, inner
fender parts, edges, etc.
❒use of “open” boxed sections to prevent
condensation and pockets of moisture from
triggering rust inside.
BODY AND UNDERBODY
WARRANTY
Your Fiat Multipla is covered by warranty against
perforation due to rust of any original element of the
structure or body.
For the general terms of this warranty, refer to Fiat
Warranty Booklet.

SELENIA 20K Fluid and lubricant specifications
for correct car operation
Synthetic-based engine oils grade SAE 10W-40
that pass ACEA A3 and API SL specifications.
Lubricants
for diesel
engines
For regular operation of Multijet versions with DPF, use only original oil. In an emergency (lacking the original product) only top up with max. 0,5
l and then drive immediately to the nearest Fiat Dealership.
If using non original SAE 5W-40 products, oils with minimum ACEA A3 specifications for petrol engines and ACEA B4 specifications for Diesel
engines are admitted; in this event top engine performance is not guaranteed.
Use of products with low-quality properties than ACEA A3 and ACEA B4 could cause damages to the engine that are not covered by the war-
ranty.
For very cold climate conditions, ask Fiat Dealership for the appropriate Seleniaproduct to use. Synthetic-based engine oils grade SAE 5W-40
that pass ACEA B4, API CF and FIAT 9.55535-M2specifica-

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below are determined on the basis of the homologation tests set
down by specific European Directives.
Consumption values are defined by means of the following procedures:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerating in all gears, simulating extraurban use of the car: the speed varies between
0 and 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: is calculated weighing about 37% of urban cycle consumption and about 63% of
extraurban consumption.
IMPORTANT Road and traffic conditions, weather, driving style, general conditions of the car, fittings and
accessories, load, use of climate control system, roof rack and other situations can affect drag and therefore may
lead to fuel consumption levels different from those shown in the table.
