WARNING
The system intervenes on vehicles
travelling in the same lane. Small sized
vehicles (e.g. bicycles or motorbikes) or people,
animals and things (e.g. pushchairs) and more in
general all those obstacles with a low reflection
of the light emitted by the laser (e.g. vehicles
soiled with mud) are not taken into
consideration.If a trailer or a car is towed the system
must be deactivated with the display
Setup Menu (see paragraph "Menu
items" in this chapter).
WARNING
If the car must be placed on a roller
bench (at a speed within 5 and 30 km/h)
for maintenance interventions or if it is washed
in an automatic roller washing tunnel with an
obstacle in the front part (e.g. another car, a
wall or another obstacle), the system may
detect its presence and activate. In this case the
system must be deactivated with the display
setup menu (see paragraph “Menu items”
in this chapter).
EOBD SYSTEMThe EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis)
carries out a continuous diagnosis of the
components of the car related to emissions. It also
alerts the driver about component deterioration
by switching on the warning light on the instrument
panel and the displaying of a relevant message (for
versions/markets, where provided) (see the chapter
“Warning lights and messages”).
The aim of the EOBD system (European On Board
Diagnosis) is to:
❒monitor the system efficiency;
❒indicate an increase in emissions;
❒indicate the need to replace damaged components.
The system also has a diagnosis connector that can
be interfaced 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.
IMPORTANT After eliminating the failure, to check
the system completely, Fiat Dealerships run a bench
test and, if necessary, road tests which may also
call for a long journey.

❒use of the car for short drives, in which the engine
does not have time to reach its regular operating
temperature;
❒repeated interruption of the regeneration process,
signalled by the DPF warning light switching on.
WARNING
If the warning light switches on, the
deteriorated engine oil must be changed
as soon as possible, and never more than 500
km from the first time that the warning light
switches on. Failure to observe the above may
result in severe damage to the engine and
invalidate the warranty. Remember that the
operation of this warning light is not related to
the amount of oil in the engine.Therefore,
never top up with oil when the light starts
flashing.EXCESSIVE ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE (red)
Turning the key to MAR switches on the warning
light, but it should switch off after a few seconds.
The warning light switches on (on some versions,
with a message on the display and a symbol on
the display) when the engine is overheated.If the warning light comes on when driving, proceed
as follows:
❒when driving normally:stop the car, stop the
engine and check that the water level in the
reservoir is not below the MIN mark. If it is, wait
for a few minutes for the engine to cool down
then slowly and carefully open the cap, top up with
coolant and check that the level is between the
MIN and MAX marks. Also check visually for any
fluid leaks. If, when restarting, the warning light
should switch on again, contact a Fiat Dealership;
❒if the car is used under demanding
conditions(e.g. towing trailers uphill or fully
loaded): slow down and, if the light stays on, stop
the car. Wait for 2 or 3 minutes with the engine
running and slightly accelerated to further favour
the coolant circulation. Then stop the engine.
Check the correct liquid level as described above.
IMPORTANT On demanding routes, it is advisable to
keep the engine on and slightly accelerated for a
few minutes before stopping it.
FUEL RESERVE - LIMITED RANGE
(amber)
This warning light comes on when about 5 to 7 litres
of fuel are left in the tank. When the remaining
range is lower than approx. 50 km (or equivalent
value in miles), on some versions, the display will
show a warning message.

message on the display) when the speed limit set in
the Setup Menu is exceeded.
When the car exceeds this value, on some versions a
message and a symbol are shown in the display and
an acoustic signal is emitted.
Fuel cut-off system intervention/fault
The warning light switches on (together with a
message on the display) in the event of fuel cut-off
system intervention/fault.
Start&Stop system fault
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on (together with a
message on the display) when a Start&Stop system
failure is detected.
In the event of a Start&Stop system failure, contact a
Fiat Dealership.
Temporary or permanent City Brake Control
- "Collision Mitigation" system failure
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on (together with a
message on the display) when a temporary or
permanent City Brake Control - "Collision
Mitigation" system failure is detected.If the failure is permanent: contact a Fiat Dealership
to have the system checked.
Parking sensor failure
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on (together with a
message on the display) when a parking sensor fault
is detected.
Exterior lights failure
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light will come on when a fault to one
of the following lights is detected:
❒side lights;
❒number plate lights;
❒rear fog lights;
❒direction indicators;
❒daytime running lights (DRL).
Engine oil pressure sensor failure
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The engine oil pressure sensor failure is indicated by
the activation of the warning light on the instrument
panel.

ENGINE OIL
Check the oil level a few minutes (about five) after
the engine has stopped, with the vehicle parked
on level ground.
For 1.2 8V 69 HP and 1.3 16V MultiJet
versionsfig. 152 fig. 153
Remove the engine oil dipstick B, clean it with a
cloth that does not leave any trace and reinsert it.
Extract the engine oil dipstick again and check that
the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the
dipstick.
The range between the MIN and MAX marks
corresponds to about 1 litre of oil.
If the oil level is near or under the MIN mark, add oil
through the filler A until it reaches the MAX mark.
The oil level should never exceed the MAX
mark.
For 0.9 TwinAir 65 HP fig. 150 and 0.9 TwinAir
85 HP versions fig. 151
The engine oil dipstick B is integral with plug A.
Loosen the plug, clean the dipstick with a cloth that
does not leave traces, reinsert the dipstick and
re-tighten the plug. Extract the plug again and check
that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks
on the dipstick.Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption is
approximately 400 grams every 1,000 km.
During the initial period of usage for the vehicle, the
engine is bedding in, therefore the engine oil
consumption may settle down only after the first
5,000 - 6,000 km.
IMPORTANT After adding or changing the oil, let the
engine run for a few seconds and wait a few minutes
after switching it off before checking the level.
Do not add oil with characteristics that
are different from those of the oil
currently in the engine.Used engine oil and filter contain harmful
substances for the environment .To change
the oil and filters, we advise you to
contact a Fiat Dealership.
ENGINE COOLANT FLUID
The coolant level must be checked when the engine
is cold and must be between the MIN and MAX
marks on the reservoir.
If the level is too low, undo reservoir cap C (see
previous pages) and add the fluid described in the
chapter "Technical Specifications".

INTERIORSPeriodically check for water puddles under the mats
that could cause the panels to rust.
WARNING
Never use flammable products, such as
petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean
the inside of the car.The electrostatic charges
which are generated by rubbing during the
cleaning operation may cause a fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol cans in the car:
they might explode. Aerosol cans must
not be exposed to a temperature exceeding
50°C .When the car is exposed to sunlight ,
internal temperature can greatly exceed this
value.SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.
Rub the seats with a sponge and a solution of water
and mild soap.
PLASTIC AND COATED PARTS
Clean interior plastic parts with a damp cloth (if
possible made from microfibre), and a solution
of water and neutral, non-abrasive detergent. To
clean oily or persistent stains, use specific products
free from solvents and designed to maintain the
original appearance and colour of the components.
Remove any dust using a microfibre cloth, if
necessary moistened with water. The use of paper
tissues is not recommended as these may leave
residues.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol, petrols and
derivatives to clean the instrument panel lens.
