mains lit together with warning light
U
turn the key to
STOP and then back to MAR; if the warning light remains
on, try with the other keys provided with the car.
If you are still unable to start the engine, perform the emer-
gency start-up procedure (see “Emergency start-up” in “In
an emergency” chapter) and contact a Fiat Dealership.
STARTING PROCEDURE FOR DIESEL
VERSIONS
Proceed as follows:
❒
engage the handbrake;
❒
put the gearshifting lever into neutral;
❒
turn the ignition key at MAR: the warning lights
m
and
Y
on the instrument panel will turn on;
❒
wait for the warning lights
Y
and
m
to turn off.
The hotter the engine is, the quicker this will happen;
❒
press the clutch pedal all the way down without touch-
ing the accelerator;
❒
turn the ignition key to AVV as soon as the warning lightm
turns off. Waiting too long will waste the work
done by the glow plugs.
Release the key as soon as the engine starts.
IMPORTANT With cold engine, the accelerator must
be entirely released when turning the ignition key to
position AVV.If the engine does not start at the first attempt, return
the ignition key to STOP before repeating starting.
If, when the ignition key is at MAR, the instrument panel
warning light
Y
remains lit, turn the key to STOP
and then back to MAR; if the warning lights remain on,
try with the other keys provided with the car.
If you still cannot start the engine, contact a Fiat Dealership.
Warning light
m
will flash for 60 seconds
after starting or during prolonged cranking
to indicate a fault to the glow plug heating
system. You can use the car as usual if the engine
starts but you should contact a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible.
HOW TO WARM UP THE ENGINE AFTER IT
HAS JUST STARTED
Proceed as follows:❒
drive off slowly, letting the engine turn at medium speed.
Do not accelerate abruptly;
❒
do not demand maximum performance for the first few
kilometres. Wait until the engine temperature coolant
gauge starts moving.

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
diesel fuel filter. On some versions warning light èturns
on as an alternative.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated message.
The presence of water in the feeding circuit
may cause severe damage to the injection
system and irregular engine operation. If
the warning light
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.

GLOW PLUG PRE-HEATING
(Multijet versions - amber)
GLOW PLUG PRE-HEATING FAILURE
(Multijet versions - amber)
Glow plug pre-heating
This warning light comes on when the key is turned to
MAR. It will go out as soon as the glow plugs have reached
a preset temperature. Start the engine as soon as the warn-
ing light goes out.
IMPORTANT At high ambient temperatures the warning
light stays on for an extremely short time.
Glow plug pre-heating failure
The warning light flashes if there is a failure in the pre-
heating system. Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated message.

Tyre side wall holes and punctures cannot
be repaired. Do not use the quick repair
kit if the tyre is damaged as the vehicle has run on
a flat tyre.
WARNING
If the wheel rim is damaged (bad groove
distortion causing air leakage) it cannot
be repaired. Do not remove the foreign body
(screws or nails) from the tyre.
WARNING
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT:
The sealing fluid of the quick tyre repair kit is effective with
external temperatures between −20 °C and +50 °C.
The sealing fluid has a limited life.
Never not operate the compressor for
longer than 20 consecutive minutes. Risk
of overheating. The quick repair kit is not suitable
for definitive repairs. Tyres may only be repaired
temporarily.
WARNING
The bottle contains ethylene glycol. It con-
tains latex that might cause allergic reac-
tions. It is harmful if swallowed. It is irritant for the
eyes in case of contact. It may cause sensitisation
by inhalation or contact. Avoid contact with your
eyes, skin and clothes. In the event of contact, wash
immediately with plenty of water. Do not induce
vomit if swallowed. Rinse your mouth and drink
plenty of water. Call a doctor immediately. Keep
away from children. The product must not be used
by asthmatics. Do not inhale the vapours during in-
sertion and suction. Call a doctor immediately if al-
lergic reactions are noted. Store the bottle in the
specific compartment, away from sources of heat.
The sealant fluid has a limited life.

WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW
WIPER/WASHERBLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part using special products;
TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is recommended.
Replace the blades if the rubber edge is deformed or worn.
In all cases, it is advisable to replace them approximately once
a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce the possibility of dam-
age to the blades:❒
make sure that the rubber part is not stuck to the wind-
screen at sub-zero temperatures. Use an antifreeze
product to release it if required;
❒
remove any snow from the glass: in addition to pro-
tecting the blades, this prevents effort on the motor
and overheating;
❒
do not operate the windscreen and the rear screen
wipers on dry glass.
RUBBER HOSESAs far as the brake system and fuel rubber hoses are concerned,
follow the “Scheduled Servicing Programme” in this chapter care-
fully.
Ozone, high temperatures and prolonged lack of fluid in the sys-
tem may cause hardening and cracking of the hoses, with pos-
sible leaks. Careful control is therefore necessary.
Driving with worn wiper blades is a serious
hazard, because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.

Glasses
To clean glasses, use specific window cleaner products.
Also use clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or dam-
aging the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window inside gently with
a cloth in the direction of the filaments to avoid damag-
ing the heating device.
Engine compartment
At the end of the winter the engine compartment should
be carefully washed, without directing the jet against any
electronic control unit. Have this operation performed
at a specialised workshop.
IMPORTANT The washing should take place with the en-
gine cold and the ignition key in the
STOP
position. After
the washing operation, make sure that the various pro-
tections (e.g. rubber caps and guards) have not been re-
moved or damaged.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.: petrol)
or ketenes (e.g.: acetone) for cleaning front headlight plas-
tic lens. To correctly wash the vehicle, proceed as follows:
❒
remove the aerial from the roof to prevent damage to
it if the car is washed in an automatic system;
❒
wash the body using a low pressure jet of water;
❒
wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy solution over the
bodywork, frequently rinsing with the sponge;
❒
rinse well with water and dry with a jet of air or
a chamois leather.
Dry the less visible parts, such as the door frames, bonnet
and the headlight frames with special care, as in these ar-
eas water may stagnate more easily. The car should not
be taken to a closed area immediately, but left outside so
that residual water can evaporate.
Do not wash the car after it has been left in the sun or
with the bonnet hot: this may alter the shine of the paint-
work.
Exterior plastic parts must be cleaned in the same way as
the rest of the car.
Where possible, do not park under trees; the resinous
substance many species release give the paint a dull ap-
pearance and increase the possibility of triggering rust
processes.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off imme-
diately and thoroughly as the acid they contain is particu-
larly aggressive.
Detergents cause water pollution. The vehi-
cle should be washed in areas equipped for
collecting and cleaning the liquid used in the
washing process.
