the extended use (for instance for over one hour) of ac-
cessories which drain much current may reduce battery
efficiency and therefore cause misfiring.

HEADLIGHTSHEADLIGHT BEAM AIMING
The correct aiming of the headlights is important for the
comfort and safety of not only the driver but all other road
users. This is also covered by a specific rule of the high-
way code. The headlights must be correctly aimed to get
the best visibility conditions for all drivers while travel-
ling with headlights on. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have
the headlights properly adjusted. Check headlight beam
aiming every time the load or its distribution change.
SLANT COMPENSATION fig. 83
The car is fitted with electric adjustment of the beams, op-
erating with ignition key at MAR and dipped headlights on.
When the car is loaded, it slopes backwards. This means
the headlight beam rises.
In this case, repeat beams aiming by buttons + and −.The display provides a visual indication of the positions
during adjustment.
Correct positions depending on the load
Position 0 – one or two passengers on front seats.
Position 1 – four passengers.
Position 2 – four passengers + load in the boot.
Position 3 – driver + maximum permitted load in the boot.

The system also has a diagnosis connector that can be in-
terfaced to suitable instruments, to read the error codes
stored in the control unit together with a series of specific
parameters for engine operation and diagnosis.
This check can also be carried out by traffic control
authorities.
IMPORTANT After eliminating the failure, to check the sys-
tem completely, Fiat Dealerships run a bench test and, if
necessary, road tests which may also call for a long journey.
EOBD SYSTEM (petrol versions)The EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis)
achieves a continuous diagnosis of the components of the
car correlated with emissions. It also alerts the driver, by
turning on the warning light
U
fig. 89 on the instrument
panel – together with relevant message in the reconfig-
urable multifunction display (for versions/markets, where
provided) – when these components are no longer in peak
condition (see “Warning lights and messages” chapter).
The goal of the system is to:
❒
keep the system efficiency under control;
❒
warn when a failure causes emissions levels to increase;
❒
warn of the need to replace deteriorated components.
If, when the ignition key is turned to the
MAR position, the
U
warning light either
does not come on or, when driving, it
comes on constantly or flashing – along with a
message in the reconfigurable multifunction display
(for versions/markets where provided) – contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible. The operation of
the
U
warning light may be checked by the traffic
control authorities using specific devices. Always
comply with the traffic regulations in force in the
country where you are driving.
