FAILURE INDICATIONS fig. 94
Any failure is indicated by instrument pan-
el warning light
gcoming on together
with the message on the reconfigurable
multifunction display (where provided),
see section “Warning lights and mes-
sages”).
In the event of electric power steering sys-
tem failure, the car can be driven with me-
chanical steering.
IMPORTANT In some circumstances, fac-
tors independent from the electric pow-
er steering could cause the illumination of
the warning light
gon the instrument
panel. ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION
CITY FUNCTION fig. 92 and 93
To connect/disconnect the CITY function,
press button A.
Connection of this function is signalled by
CITYwarning light coming on.
When the CITYfunction is on, the steer-
ing wheel effort is lighter and thus parking
operations are easier: therefore this func-
tion is particularly useful for driving in city
centres.

It is absolutely forbidden to
carry out whatever after-
market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifica-
tions (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect per-
formance and safety, cause the lapse
of warranty and also result in non-
compliance of the car with homolo-
gation requirements.

GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, take the utmost care to
obstacles that may be set above or un-
der the sensors.
❒Objects set close to the car rear part,
under certain circumstances are not de-
tected and could therefore cause dam-
ages to the car.
❒Indications sent by the sensors can be
altered by dirt, snow or ice deposited
on the sensors or by ultrasound sys-
tems (e.g.: truck pneumatic brakes or
pneumatic hammers) set nearby the
car. FAILURE INDICATIONS
In the event of sensor failures, the driver
is warned when engaging reverse by a 3-
second beep.
OPERATION WITH TRAILER
Parking sensor operation is deactivated
automatically when the trailer electric ca-
ble plug is fitted into the car tow hook
socket.
Sensors are reactivated automatically
when removing the trailer cable plug.
For proper operation, the
parking sensors shall always
be clean from mud, dirt, snow
or ice. When cleaning the sen-
sors, take the utmost care to prevent
their damaging; do not use therefore
dry or rough clothes. Sensors shall be
washed with clean water and car de-
tergent, if required. In washing stations,
clean sensors quickly keeping the
vapour jet/high pressure washing noz-
zles at 10 cm at least from the sensors.
Parking manoeuvres howev-
er are always under the dri-
ver’s responsibility that shall always
check the absence of people (spe-
cially children) or animals in the ma-
noeuvre space. This system is just a
help for the driver but she/he shall
never reduce attention during dan-
gerous manoeuvres even if performed
at low speed.

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 en-
gine emissions are the following:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒ exhaust gas recirculation system
(E.G.R.);
❒ diesel particulate filter (DPF). FUEL FILLER CAP fig. 98 and 99
The fuel filler cap Bis fitted with an anti-
loss device Cwhich fastens it to the flap
Aso it cannot be mislaid.
To slacken the cap Bfirst open the flap A.
The sealing of the tank may cause light
pressurising in the tank. A little breathing
off, while slackening the cap is absolutely
normal.
When refuelling, position the cap on the
device inside the flap as shown in the fig-
ure.
fig. 99F0G0042m
Do not put naked flames or
lighted cigarettes near the fu-
el filler hole as there is a dan-
ger of fire. Do not bend too
close to the hole either so as not to
breathe in harmful vapours.
During normal service the
catalyst reaches high tem-
peratures. Do not therefore park the
car over inflammable materials (grass,
dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire
hazard.

All restraint devices must bear the certi-
fication 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 recommend-
ed choice, as they have been designed and
experimented specifically for Fiat cars.CARRYING CHILDREN
SAFELY
For optimal protection in the event of a
crash, all passengers must be seated and
wearing adequate restraint systems.
This is even more important for children.
This prescription is compulsory in all EC
countries according to EC Directive
2003/20/EC.
Compared with adults, their head is pro-
portionally larger and heavier than the rest
of the body, while the muscles and bone
structure are not completely developed.
Therefore, correct restraint systems are
necessary, other then adult seat belts.
The results of research on the best child
restraint systems are contained in the Eu-
ropean Standard ECE- R44. This Standard
enforces the use of restraint systems clas-
sified in five groups:
Group 0 0-10 kg in weight
Group 0+ 0-13 kg in weight
Group 1 9-18 kg in weight
Group 2 15-25 kg in weight
Group 3 weight 22 - 36 kg
SERIOUS DANGER: Never
place cradle child’s seats on
the front passenger seat of
cars fitted with passenger’s
air bag. The air bag activa-
tion could cause serious in-
juries, even mortal. You are advised
to carry children always on the rear
seats, as this is the most protected po-
sition in the case of a crash. In any
case, children’s seats must absolutely
not be fitted on the front seat of cars
with passenger’s air bag, which dur-
ing inflation could cause serious in-
jury, even mortal, regardless of the se-
riousness of the crash that triggered
it. Children may be placed on the
front seat of cars fitted with passen-
ger’s air bag deactivation. In this case,
it is absolutely necessary to check the
warning light
Fon the cluster to
make sure that deactivation has ac-
tually taken place (see paragraph
“Passenger’s front air bag” at item
“Front air bags”). The front passen-
ger’s seat shall be adjusted in the
most backward position to prevent
any contact between child’s seat and
dashboard.

MANUALLY DEACTIVATING
THE PASSENGER’S FRONT
AIR BAG
Should it be absolutely necessary to car-
ry a child on the front seat, the passenger’s
air bag on the car can be deactivated.
Deactivation/reactivation takes place with
ignition key at STOPand operating it in
the special key switch in the glovebox.
The key can be fitted and extracted in
both positions.
IMPORTANT Operate the switch only
when the engine is not running and the ig-
nition key is removed. PASSENGER’S FRONT AIR BAG
fig. 17
It consists of an instant-inflating cushion
contained in a special recess in the dash-
board; its volume is bigger than the dri-
ver’s one.
fig. 17F0G0057m
SERIOUS DANGER: Never
place cradle child’s seats on
the front passenger seat of
cars fitted with passenger
air bag. Air bag activation
could cause serious injuries,
even mortal. In the case of need, al-
ways deactivate the passenger’s air
bag when a child’s seat is placed on
the front seat. The front passenger’s
seat shall be adjusted in the most
backward position to prevent any
contact between child’s seat and
dashboard. Even if not compulsory by
law, you are recommended to reacti-
vate the air bag immediately as soon
as child transport is no longer neces-
sary.

SIDE AIR BAGS
(Side bag - Window
bag)
SIDE BAG fig. 19
It consists of an instant inflation cushion
housed in the back rest of the front seat
and has the task to increase protection
of the occupants’ chest in the event of a
side crash of medium-high severity.
The key-operated switch has two posi-
tions fig. 18:
❒passenger’s front air bag activated (ON
position P): warning light Fon in-
strument cluster off; it is absolutely pro-
hibited to carry a child on the front
seat.
❒passenger’s front air bag deactivated
(OFFposition F): warning light F
on instrument cluster on; it is possible
to carry a child protected by special re-
straint system on the front seat.
The warning light Fon the cluster stays
on permanently until the passenger’s air
bag is reactivated.
Deactivation of the passenger’s front air
bag does not inhibit operation of the side
air bag.

PARKING
Proceed as follows:
❒ Stop the engine and engage the hand-
brake;
❒engage a gear (1stif the car is faced up-
hill or reverse if it is faced downhill) and
leave the wheels steered.
Block the wheels with a wedge or a stone
if the car is parked on a steep slope.
Do not leave the ignition key at MARto
prevent draining the battery, always re-
move the ignition key when leaving the
car.
Never leave children unattended in the
car. Always remove the ignition key when
leaving the car and take it out with you.HANDBRAKE fig. 1
The handbrake lever is located between
the two front seats.
Pull the handbrake lever upwards until the
car cannot be moved.
Four or five clicks are generally enough
when the car is on level ground while nine
or ten may be required if the car is on a
steep slope or laden.
IMPORTANT If this is not the case, con-
tact Fiat Dealership to have the handbrake
adjusted.
When the handbrake lever is pulled up
and the ignition key is at MAR, the in-
strument panel warning light xwill turn
on. STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition to STOPwhile the en-
gine is idling.
IMPORTANT After taxing drive, you
should allow the engine to “catch its
breath” before turning it off by letting it
idle to allow the temperature in the en-
gine compartment to fall.
