(for versions/markets, where provided)
The sunroof has an anti-pinch safety
system capable of detecting the
presence of an obstacle whilst the roof

system stops and the movement of the
glass is immediately reversed.
EMERGENCY OPERATION
If the electrical device for moving the
roof fails, the sun roof can be moved
manually proceeding as described

until the roof is completely closed.
WARNING
21)When leaving the vehicle, always
remove the key from the ignition to avoid
the risk of injury due to accidental
operation of the sun roof. Improper use of
the roof can be dangerous. Before and
during operation, always check that
nobody is at risk of being injured by the
moving sun roof or by objects getting
caught or hit by it.
WARNING
8)Do not open the sunroof if snow or ice is
over it: you may damage it. In vehicles
with sun roof no roof rack can be fitted.
DUALDRIVE
ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING
22) 23)
This only operates with the key turned
to MAR and the engine started. The
steering allows the force required at the
steering wheel to be adjusted to suit
driving conditions.
IMPORTANT When turning the ignition
key quickly, full power steering
functionality can be achieved after a
few seconds.
CITY FUNCTION
ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
Press the CITY fig. 28 button to
activate/deactivate the function. The
activation of the function is signalled by
the word CITY on the display (in some
versions it is signalled by the word CITY
appearing on the instrument panel).
When the CITY function is on, the
steering wheel effort is lighter, making
parking easier: therefore, this function is
particularly useful for driving in city
centres.IMPORTANT During parking
manoeuvres requiring a lot of steering,
the steering may become harder; this is
normal and is due to the intervention
of the system to protect the electric
steering motor from overheating so no
intervention is required. When the
vehicle is used again later on,
the power steering will work normally.
WARNING
22)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft
device) that could adversely affect
performance and safety, invalidate the
warranty and also result in non-compliance
of the vehicle with type-approval
requirements.

23)Before servicing the vehicle, switch off
the engine and remove the key from the
ignition switch to activate the steering lock.
This is especially important when the
vehicle wheels are not touching the
ground. If this is not possible (for example if
the key needs to be turned to MAR or the
engine must be running), remove the
main fuse that protects the electric power
steering.ECO FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
To activate the function press the ECO
button fig. 29.
When the ECO function is active, the
car is set for driving characterised
by reduced fuel consumption. When
the function is active, the
corresponding LED on the button
switches on.
This function stays in the memory and,
when the vehicle is started again, the
system keeps the setting it had before
the engine was stopped. Press the
ECO button again to deactivate the
function and restore the normal driving
setting.

Warning light What it means
EBD FAILURE
The simultaneous switching on of the
(red),(amber) and(amber) warning lights with the engine
on, indicates either a fault of the EBD system or that the system is not available. In this case, the rear
wheels may suddenly lock and the vehicle may swerve when braking sharply. On certain versions a
dedicated message is displayed.
Drive very carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have the system inspected immediately.
AIRBAG FAILURE
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning light turns on but should switch off after a few
seconds.
If the warning light switches on constantly, this indicates a fault in the airbag system. On certain versions a
dedicated message is displayed.
40) 41)
WARNING
40)If, when turning the key to MAR, thewarning light does not turn on or if it stays on when travelling, there could be a fault in the
restraint systems; in this event airbags or pretensioners may not be deployed in the event of impact or, in a lower number of cases, they may
deploy accidentally. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked.
41)Failure of the
warning light is signalled by thewarning light flashing. In this case, any faults of the airbag system might be not
signalled. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

Warning light What it means
LOW BRAKE FLUID/HANDBRAKE ENGAGED
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning light turns on but should switch off after a few
seconds.
Low brake fluid level
The warning light switches on when the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level, possibly
due to a leak in the circuit. On certain versions a dedicated message is displayed.
42)
Handbrake engaged
The warning light switches on when the handbrake is engaged. If the vehicle is moving a buzzer will also
sound.
IMPORTANT If the warning light turns on when travelling, check that the handbrake is not engaged.
LOW BATTERY CHARGE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light comes on when the ignition key is turned to MAR, but it should go out as soon as the
engine has started (with the engine running at idle speed a brief delay before going out is acceptable).
If the warning light stays on constantly or flashing, on some versions along with a dedicated message on
the display, contact a Fiat Dealership.
DOORS/BONNET/LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT OPEN
The warning light switches on, on some versions along with a message and a symbol in the display, when
one or more doors, the bonnet or the tailgate are not properly closed. An acoustic signal is emitted with the
doors open and the vehicle in motion.
WARNING
42)If thewarning light comes on while driving, stop immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership
43

Warning light What it means
INSUFFICIENT ENGINE OIL/PRESSURE
When the ignition key is turned to MAR the warning light switches on, but should switch off as soon as the
engine is started.
Insufficient engine oil pressure
The warning light turns on constantly, on some versions along with a message on the display, when the
system detects that engine oil pressure is insufficient.
43)
WARNING
43)If thewarning light comes on when the vehicle is travelling (on some versions along with the message on the display) stop the
engine immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
44
KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

Warning light What it means
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
When the key is turned to MAR, the warning light switches on but it should switch off after a few seconds.
The warning light comes on, on some versions along with a message on the display, when the engine is
overheated.
When driving normally:stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and check that the water level in the
reservoir is not below the MIN mark. If it is, wait 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 on the reservoir.
Also check visually for any fluid leaks. If, when restarting, the warning light switches on again, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions(e.g. towing trailers uphill or fully loaded): slow
down and, if the warning light stays on, stop the vehicle. Wait for 2 or 3 minutes with the engine running
and slightly accelerated to further favour the coolant circulation. Then stop the engine. Check that the
coolant level is correct as described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to keep the engine on and slightly accelerated for a
few minutes before switching it off.
“DUALDRIVE” ELECTRIC POWER STEERING FAILURE
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds.
If the warning light stays on, on some versions along with a dedicated message on the display, you may
not have steering assistance and the effort required to operate the steering wheel could be notably
increased; steering is, however, possible.
In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT In some circumstances, factors independent of the electric power steering could cause the
warning light on the instrument panel to switch on. In this case, stop the vehicle immediately (should it be
in motion), stop the engine for about 20 seconds and then restart the engine. If the warning light, on some
versions along with a dedicated message on the display, remains on, contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT After the battery is disconnected, the steering must be initialised. The warning light switches
on to indicate this. To carry out this procedure, simply turn the steering wheel all the way from one end to
the other or drive in a straight line for about a hundred metres.
