PARKING THE VEHICLEProceed as follows:❒
stop the engine and engage the handbrake;
❒
engage a gear (on a slope, engage first gear if the vehi-
cle is parked uphill or reverse if it is parked 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 key in the ignition switch at MAR to pre-
vent draining the battery. Always remove the 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. 116
The handbrake lever is located between the two front
seats. Pull the handbrake lever upwards until the car can-
not be moved. STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition key to STOP while the engine is idling.
IMPORTANT After a taxing drive, you should allow the
engine to “catch its breath” before turning it off by let-
ting it idle to allow the temperature in the engine com-
partment to fall.
Never bump start the engine by pushing,
towing or coasting downhill. This could
cause a flow of fuel into the catalytic con-
verter and damage it beyond repair.A quick burst on the accelerator before
turning off the engine serves absolutely no
practical purpose, it wastes fuel and is dam-
aging especially to turbocharged engines.
EMERGENCY START-UP
If the instrument panel warning light
Y
stays on with fixed
light, the emergency start-up can be performed by using
the CODE card code (see chapter “In an emergency”).

TOWING TRAILERSIMPORTANT NOTES
For towing caravans or trailers the car must be fitted with
a certified tow hook and an adequate electric system. In-
stallation should be carried out by specialised personnel
who will issue the required papers for travelling on roads.
Install any specific and/or additional rear view mirrors as
specified by the Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer, steep hills are hard-
er to climb, braking spaces increase and overtaking takes
longer depending on the overall weight.
Engage a low gear when driving downhill, rather than con-
stantly using the brake.
The weight the trailer exerts on the car tow hook reduces
by the same amount the actual car loading capacity. To
make sure the maximum towable weight is not exceeded
(given in the car registration document) account should
be taken of the fully laden trailer, including accessories and
luggage.
Do not exceed the speed limits specific for each country
you are driving in, in case of vehicles towing trailers. In any
case, the top speed must not exceed 100 km/h. Traffic and road conditions
Rather high consumption levers are tied to situations with
heavy traffic, for instance when travelling in queues with
frequent use of the lower gears or in cities with many traf-
fic lights. Also winding mountain roads and rough road sur-
faces adversely affect consumption.
Traffic hold-ups
During prolonged hold-ups (e.g. level crossings) the engine
should be switched off.

SNOW TYRESUse snow tyres of the same size as the normal tyres pro-
vided with the car.
Fiat Dealership will be happy to provide advice concern-
ing the most suitable type of tyres for the customer’s re-
quirements.
For the type of tyre to be used, inflation pressures and the
specifications of snow tyres, follow the instructions given
in paragraph “Wheels” in section “Technical specifica-
tions”.
The winter features of these tyres are reduced consider-
ably when the tread depth is below 4 mm. Replace them
in this case.
Due to snow tyre features, under normal conditions of
use or on long motorway journeys, the performance of
these tyres is much lower than that of standard tyres. Lim-
it performance according to the use for which they were
certified.
IMPORTANT When snow tyres are used with a max.
speed index below the one that can be reached by the
car (increased by 5%), place a notice in the passenger’s
compartment, plainly in the driver’s view which states the
max. permissible speed of the snow tyres (as per EC
Directive).
The max. speed of snow tyres with “Q”
marking is 160 km/h. The Highway Code
speed limits must however be always complied
with.
WARNING
All four tyres should be the same (brand and track) to
ensure greater safety when driving and braking and bet-
ter driveability.
Remember that it is inappropriate to change the rotation
direction of tyres.

FUEL RESERVE (amber)
Turning the ignition key to MAR the warning light
turns on, but it should go off after a few seconds.
The warning light turns on when about 5 litres fuel are left
in the tank.
IMPORTANT The warning light will flash to indicate a sys-
tem failure. If this is the case, contact a Fiat Dealership to
have the system checked.
ç
DPF (DIESEL PARTICULATE TRAP)
CLEANING IN PROGRESS
(only Multijet versions with DPF
– amber)
When the key is turned to the MAR position the warn-
ing light comes on but should go out after a few seconds.
The warning light turns on steadily when the DPF systems
needs to eliminate the trapped pollutants by the regen-
eration process.
The warning light does not come on every time the DPF
is being regenerated, rather only when the driving condi-
tions are such that the driver needs to know it. To switch
the warning light off, the car must be kept moving until the
regeneration process is completed.
As an average, the process lasts fifteen minutes.
The best conditions to complete the regeneration process
are reached driving the car at about 60 km/h with engine
speed over 2000 rpm. When this warning light comes on,
it does not indicate a car failure and thus it should not be
taken to the workshop. For versions/markets where pro-
vided, the display shows the dedicated message and the
warning light comes on.
h
The driving speed should always be suit-
able to traffic conditions, weather condi-
tions and the driver should always comply with
the Highway Code. The engine can also be
switched off if the DPF warning light is on; nev-
ertheless, repeated interruptions of the regener-
ation process could cause an early decay of en-
gine oil. For this reason, always wait until the
warning light switches off before stopping the en-
gine as above described. DPF regeneration should
not be completed when the car is at a standstill

CAR PROTECTION SYSTEM FAILURE
- FIAT CODE (amber)
Turning the key to MAR the warning light shall
flash only once and then go off.
If with the ignition key at MAR, the warning light stays on,
a possible failure is indicated (see “Fiat Code system” in
chapter “Know your vehicle”).
IMPORTANT The turning on at the same time of the
warning lights
U
and
Y
indicates a failure of the Fiat
CODE system.
If with the engine running the warning light
Y
flashes, this
means that the car is not protected by the engine immo-
bilizer device (see “Fiat Code system” in chapter “Know
your vehicle”).
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have all the keys repro-
grammed. 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
c
turns on when there is water in the

c
lights up (on some versions the
warning light èis on together with the message on
the display), contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the system bled. If the same mes-
sage is displayed immediately after refuelling, wa-
ter has probably been poured into the tank: turn
the engine off immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.

Before towing, turn the ignition key to
MAR and then to STOP without removing
it. The steering column will automatically lock
when the key is removed and the wheels cannot
be steered.
WARNING
When towing, remember that without the
help of the servo-brake and electric pow-
er steering, a greater effort is required on the ped-
al and steering wheel. Do not use flexible cables
when towing and avoid jerky movements. While
towing, make sure not to damage parts in contact
with the car. When towing the car, comply with
the regulations of the Highway Code about tow-
ing, both concerning the towing device and the
driving behaviour on the road.
WARNING
During towing, never start the engine.
