LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
ESP SYSTEM FAULT
(amber)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR,
the warning light turns on but should go
off after a few seconds.
If the warning light does not go off or stays
on when travelling together with the but-
ton LED ASR OFF, contact a Fiat Deal-
ership.
A specific message is displayed on certain
versions.
Note The warning light flashing when dri-
ving indicates that the ESP system is active.
á
HILL HOLDER FAULT
(amber)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR,
the warning light turns on but should go
off after a few seconds.
The warning light turns on to indicate a Hill
Holder system fault. In this case, contact
a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
On certain versions, warning light
áturns
on as an alternative.
A specific message is displayed on certain
versions.
*
WORN BRAKE PADS
(amber)
The warning light comes on if the front
brake pads are worn; in this case, have
them changed as soon as possible.
A specific message is displayed on certain
versions.
d
DPF (Particulate Filter) CLEANING IN
PROGRESS
(only Multijet versions
with DPF - amber)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR
position, the warnintg light turns on but
should go off after a few seconds. The
warning light stays on constantly to noti-
fy the driver that the DPF system needs
to eliminate captured pollutants (particu-
late) by the regeneration process. The
warning light does not come on during
every DPF regeneration, but only when
driving conditions require notification to
the driver. The warning light will go off if
the vehicle stays in motion until regener-
ation has been completed. The process
normally takes about 15 minutes. The op-
timum conditions to end the process are
achieved by keeping the car in motion at
up to 60 km/h with an engine speed high-
er than 2000 rpm. This light coming on is
not a defect and therefore the car does
not need to go to the workshop. A spe-
cific message will appear on the display
when the warning light comes on (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided).
hAlways drive at a speed ap-
propriate to the traffic con-
ditions, the weather and speed limits.
The engine may be turned off while
the DPF light is on; however, repeat-
ed interruption of the regeneration
process may result in premature
degradation of engine oil. For this
reason it is always advisable to wait
for the light to go off before turning
off the engine, following the instruc-
tions appearing above. It is not
a good idea to complete DPF regen-
eration with the vehicle stationary.

CHANGING A TYRE
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Wheel changing and correct use of the
jack and spare wheel call for some pre-
cautions, as listed below.
Use your hazard lights,
warning triangle, etc to show
that your car is stationary. Passengers
should get out of the car, particular-
ly if it is heavily loaded, and wait for
the wheel to be changed away from
the traffic. Apply the handbrake.
WARNING
The spare wheel provided is
specific for your vehicle.
Therefore, it must not be used on dif-
ferent models and you should not use
spare wheels from other models on
your vehicle. The wheel bolts are spe-
cific for your vehicle: do not use them
on different models and do not use
bolts from other models on your car.
WARNING
Repair and refit the standard
wheel as soon as possible.
Do not apply grease to the bolt
threads before assembly: they might
spontaneously unscrew.
WARNING
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. This could
cause fuel to flow into the catalytic con-
verter and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake
booster and the power steering system
are not active until the engine is started,
so you will need to apply much more force
to the brake pedal or steering wheel.

Important notes:
❒the jack weight is 1.76 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired. If it breaks it must be replaced with a new jack;
❒no tool other than its cranking devicemay be fitted on the jack.
To change a wheel proceed
as follows:
❒stop the car where it is not a danger to other road users and you can replace
the wheel safely. The ground should be
flat and solid;
❒turn the engine off and pull up the hand-brake.
❒engage first gear or reverse;
❒ wear the reflective safety jacket (com- pulsory by law in certain countries) be-
fore getting out of the car;
❒open the boot and lift the carpet or re-
move the cargo box (for versions/mar-
kets, where provided);
❒unscrew the locking device A-fig. 2;
❒take out the tool container C-fig. 2 and
put it alongside the wheel to be
changed;
❒take out the spare wheel B-fig. 2;
fig. 2F0M0188m
The jack may be used to re-
place wheels only on the car
which it equips or other cars of the
same model. Never use the jack for
other purposes, such as lifting other
models. Never use the jack to carry
out repairs under the car. Incorrect
positioning of the jack may cause the
car to fall. Do not use the jack for
loads higher than the one shown on
its label.
WARNING
Incorrect hub cap assembly
may cause it to come off
when the car is moving. Never tam-
per with the inflation valve. Never in-
troduce tools of any kind between the
rim and the tyre. Check tyre and
spare wheel pressure regularly, refer-
ring to the values shown in the “Tech-
nical specifications” section.

❒ make sure that switch D-fig. 10 of the
compressor is in position 0 (off), start
the engine, plug into the nearest sock-
et E-fig. 11 and activate the compres-
sor by turning switch D-fig. 10to po-
sition I(on). Inflate the tyre to the
pressure specified in the “Inflation
pressure” paragraph in the “Technical
specifications” section. For a more accurate reading, check
pressure gauge F-fig. 10
with the com-
pressor off;
❒if after 5 minutes you cannot reach at least 1.5 bar, unplug the compressor
from the valve and the socket, then
move the car forward about ten metres
in order to distribute the sealant inside
the tyre evenly, then repeat the infla-
tion operation;
❒if after this operation you still cannotreach at least 1.8 bar after 5 minutes,
do not resume driving because the tyre
is too damaged and the fast tyre repair
kit cannot guarantee suitable sealing.
Contact a Fiat Dealership;
❒if you do reach the tyre pressure spec-ified in the “Inflation pressure” para-
graph in the “Technical specifications”
section, start driving immediately;
fig. 10F0M0202m

Apply the adhesive label
where it can be easily seen
by the driver as a reminder that the
tyre has been treated with the quick
repair kit. Drive carefully, particular-
ly on bends. Do not exceed 80 km/h.
Do not accelerate or brake suddenly.
WARNING
❒after driving for about 10 minutes, stop and check the tyre pressure again; re-
member to put on the handbrake ;
If the pressure has fallen be-
low 1.8 bar, do not drive any
further: the Fix&Go automatic quick
tyre repair kit cannot guarantee
proper hold because the tyre is too
damaged. Contact a Fiat Dealership.
