If the engine does not start at the first at-
tempt, return the ignition key to STOP
before repeating starting.
If, when the ignition key is at MAR, warn-
ing light
Yremains lit, turn the key to
STOPand then back to MAR; if the
warning light remains on, try with the oth-
er keys provided with the car.
If you still cannot start the engine, contact
Fiat Dealership.HOW TO WARM UP THE
ENGINE AFTER IT HAS JUST
STARTED
Proceed as follows:❒ Drive off slowly, letting the engine turn
at medium revs. Do not accelerate
abruptly;
❒Do not drive at full performance for the
initial kilometres. Wait until the coolant
temperature gauge starts moving.
EMERGENCY START-UP
If the instrument panel warning light
Ystays on with fixed light, the emergency
start-up can be performed by using the
CODE card code (see section “In an
emergency”). STARTING PROCEDURE
FOR DIESEL VERSIONS
Proceed as follows:
❒ Ensure that the handbrake is up;
❒ Put the gear lever into neutral;
❒Turn the ignition key to MAR: the
warning lights
mand Yon the in-
strument panel will turn on;
❒Wait for the warning lights Yand
mto turn off. The hotter the engine
is, the quicker this will happen;
❒ Press the clutch pedal down to the
floor without touching the accelerator;
❒Turn the ignition key to AVVas soon
as warning light
mgoes out. If you
wait too long you will lose the benefit
of the work done by the glow plugs.
Release the key as soon as the engine
starts.
IMPORTANT With cold engine, the ac-
celerator pedal shall be completely re-
leased while turning the ignition key to
AVV.

OF THE CAR
The warning light mwill
flash for 60 seconds at start-
up or during prolonged crank-
ing to indicate a fault in the
glow plug heating system. You can use
the car as usual if the engine starts but
you should contact Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible.
Never bump start the engine
by pushing, towing or coast-
ing downhill. These opera-
tions could cause fuel to flow
into the catalytic exhaust system and
damage it beyond repair.

WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
If when turning the ignition
key to MAR, the warning
light ¬does not turn on or stays on
when travelling there could be a fail-
ure in safety systems; in this event air
bags or pretensioners could not trig-
ger in case of impact or, in a minor
number of cases, they could trigger
accidentally. Contact Fiat Dealership
immediately to have the system
checked.
WARNING
The failure of the warning
light ¬(warning light off) is
also indicated by the flashing for
more than the normal 4 seconds of
the passenger’s front air bag deacti-
vated warning light F.

passenger’s air bag is deactivated.
With front passenger’s air bag on, turn-
ing the ignition key to MAR, warning light
Fcomes on steadily for about 4 sec-
onds, it flashes for other 4 seconds and
then it shall go off.

Warning light Findicates
also warning light ¬failures.
This is indicated by intermittent flash-

F. In this event warning light ¬in-
dicates that there could be a failure
in safety systems. Contact Fiat Deal-
ership immediately to have the sys-
tem checked.
WARNING
HIGH TEMPERATURE
ENGINE COOLANT
FLUID (red)
Turning the ignition key to MARthe
warning light turns on, but it should go off
after few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the en-
gine is overheated.
If the warning light comes on when dri-
ving, proceed as follows:
❒normal driving conditions: stop
the car, switch off the engine and
check whether the water level in the
reservoir is not below the MIN mark.
Otherwise wait for few seconds to al-
low the engine cooling, then open
slowly and carefully the cap, top up
coolant and check whether its level is
falling between MIN and MAX marks
in the reservoir. Check visually any
leak. If, when restarting, the warning
light comes on again, contact a Fiat
Dealership.

To top up, remove the cap A.
Pour a mixture of water and TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC35, in the following
concentrations:
30% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35 and
70% water in summer.
50% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35 and
50% water in winter.
In case of temperatures below –20°C, use
undiluted TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35
fluid. ENGINE COOLANT fig. 7 and 8
The coolant level shall be checked with
cold engine and shall be within the MIN
and MAX marks on the tank.
If the level is low, pour slowly a mixture
of 50% distilled water and 50% PARAFLU
UP of the FL Selenia Group through the
filler neck Auntil the level reaches MAX.
A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU UP and dis-
tilled water gives freeze protection to
–35°C.
For particularly hard climate conditions,
we recommend use of a 60% Paraflu UP
and 40% demineralized water mixture.

The engine cooling system us-
es protective antifreeze fluid
PARAFLU UP. Use the same
fluid type as that already in
the cooling system when topping up.
PARAFLU UP fluid cannot be mixed
with any other type of fluid. Should it
happen, under no circumstances start
the engine; contact a Fiat Dealership.
The cooling system is pres-
surised. If necessary, replace
the cap only with another genuine
one, otherwise system efficiency
could be compromised. Do not re-
move the reservoir cap when the en-
gine is hot: you risk scalding yourself.
