REFUELLING
Petrol engines: only refuel the car with unleaded
petrol with an octane rating (RON) of no less than 95
conforming to the European specification EN 228.
The use of petrol that does not conform to the above-
mentioned specification may cause the EOBD warning light
to switch on and the irregular operation of the engine.
Diesel engines: only refuel the car using diesel fuel that
conforms to European specification EN590.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Make sure that the handbrake is properly applied; place the
gear lever in neutral; fully depress the clutch pedal, with-
out pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to
the MAR position and wait for the
Yand mwarning
lights to switch off (diesel versions); turn the ignition key to
the AVV position and release it as soon as the engine starts.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter reaches high temperatures dur-
ing operation. Do not park the on grass, dry leaves, pine
needles or other flammable material: fire hazard.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The car is fitted with a system that carries out a con-
tinuous diagnosis of the emission-related components
in order to help protect the environment.ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the car, you decide to add electrical ac-
cessories (with the risk of gradually draining the bat-
tery), visit a Fiat Dealership. They can calculate the over-
all electrical requirement and check that the car’s elec-
trical system can support the required load.
CODE card
Keep this in a safe place, not in the car. You should have
the electronic code from the CODE card with you at
all times.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance of the car is essential for ensuring it
stays in tip-top condition and safeguards its safety features,
its environmental friendliness and low running costs for
a long time to come.
THE OWNER’S HANDBOOK CONTAINS…
... information, tips and important warnings on the cor-
rect use and maintenance of your car over time as
well as safe driving tips. Pay special attention to the sym-
bols
"(personal safety) #(environmental protection)
!(the car’s wellbeing).

EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis) pro-
vides a continuous diagnosis of the car’s emission-related
components.
It also alerts the driver, by way of warning light Ulight-
ing up on the instrument panel (together with the relevant
message on the multifunction display, where provided) (see
section “Warning lights and messages”), when these com-
ponents are no longer in peak condition.
The goal of the system is to:
❒keep the system efficiency under control;
❒warn when a fault causes emissions levels to increase;
❒warn of the need to replace non-performing compo-
nents.
The system also has a connector that can be interfaced
with appropriate equipment, which makes it possible 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 traf-
fic police.
IMPORTANT After eliminating the problem, to check the
system completely, Fiat Dealerships run a bench test and,
if necessary, road tests which may also call for a long jour-
ney.
