IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT THE TPMS
SYSTEM
The fault indications are not stored and will therefore not
be displayed after the engine has been switched off and
then on again. If the fault conditions persist, the control
unit will send the relative indications to the instrument
panel only after the vehicle has been in motion for a short
time.
WARNING Particularly strong radio frequency interference
may cause the TPMS system to function incorrectly. This
condition is indicated to the driver by a message on the dis-
play. The warning message will go off automatically as soon
as the interference stops disturbing the system.

CONTENTS
The presence of TPMS does not exoner-
ate the driver from regularly checking the
pressure of the tyres and the spare wheel (see
“Wheels” in the “Maintenance and care” section).
WARNING
The TPMS is not able to warn you of sud-
den tyre pressure losses (for example when
a tyre bursts). In this case, stop the car, braking
with care and avoiding sharp steering actions.
WARNING
Replacing the normal tyres with winter
tyres and vice versa requires an inspection
of the TPMS, which should be carried out only
by a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
The TPMS requires the use of specific
equipment. Contact a Fiat Dealership to
find out which accessories are compatible with the
system (wheels, hub caps etc.). Using other ac-
cessories may hinder the normal operation of the
system.
WARNING
Changes in outside temperature may
cause tyre pressures to vary. The TPMS
system may temporarily indicate insufficient pres-
sure. In this case, check the tyre pressures with the
tyres cold and, if necessary, pump them up.

With Dualogic gearbox
(for versions/markets where provided)
The engine cuts out if the car stops with the brake pedal
pressed.
This condition can be maintained even if the brake pedal
is not pressed, if the gear lever is in position N.
NB: The engine can be stopped automatically only after
a speed of about 10 Km/h is reached, to prevent the en-
gine from being repeatedly stopped when driving at walk-
ing pace.
The engine being stopped is signalled by the warning light
fig. 118 on the instrument panel, depending on the con-
figuration.
Engine restarting mode
With normal transmission
Press the clutch pedal to allow the engine to be restarted.
START&STOP SYSTEM
(for versions/markets where provided)
FOREWORD
The Start&Stop device automatically stops the engine each
time the vehicle is stationary and starts it again when the
driver wants to move off.
This improves the efficiency of the vehicle by reducing fu-
el consumption, the emission of harmful gases and noise
pollution. The system is activated each time the car is
started.
OPERATING MODES
Engine cut-out mode
With manual transmission
With the vehicle stationary, the engine cuts out with the
gearbox in neutral and the clutch pedal released.

SAFETY FUNCTIONS
In engine cut-out conditions through the Start&Stop sys-
tem, if the driver unfastens his/her seat belt and opens the
driver’s door or the passenger door, the engine can be
restarted only by using the key.
The driver is notified of this condition both by a buzzer
and through an information message on the display and
(for versions/markets where provided) by the warning light
fig. 121 on the instrument panel flashing.
ENERGY SAVING FUNCTION
(For versions/markets where provided)
If, after the engine has been automatically restarted, the
driver does not take any action for a period of about 3
minutes, the Start&Stop system will definitively stop the
engine to avoid fuel consumption. In these cases, the en-
gine can be restarted only by using the key.
NB: In any case, it is possible to keep the engine running
by deactivating the Start&Stop system. RESTARTING CONDITIONS
For reasons of comfort, limiting harmful emissions and safe-
ty purposes, the power unit can restart automatically with-
out any action on behalf of the driver if certain conditions
are met, including:
❒ battery not sufficiently charged;
❒ windscreen wipers working at maximum speed;
❒extreme braking system pressure, e.g. following the
brake pedal being pressed repeatedly;
❒ car moving around, for example when driving on hilly
roads;
❒stopping the engine through the Start&Stop system for
more than about three minutes.
❒automatic climate control system for establishing a com-
fortable temperature or enabling the MAX – DEF func-
tion.
With a gear engaged, the engine can be automatically
restarted only by fully depressing the clutch pedal. The dri-
ver is asked to perform this operation through a message
on the instrument panel and, where provided, by the warn-
ing light fig. 121 on the instrument panel flashing
NB: If the clutch is not pressed, when the three minutes
have elapsed since the engine was stopped, the engine can
be restarted only by using the key.
NB: In cases when the engine stops and this is not desired,
due for example to the clutch pedal being released sharply
with a gear engaged, if the Start&Stop system is activat-
ed, the engine can be restarted by fully depressing the
clutch pedal or by putting the gear lever into neutral.KNOWING

IMPORTANT
Before opening the bonnet, make sure
that the car is switched off and the key is
in the OFF position. Follow the instructions on the
plate near the front crossmember fig. 124a. It is
advisable to extract the key when there are oth-
er people in the car. The car should always be
evacuated after the key has been removed or
turned to the OFF position. During refuelling op-
erations, it is necessary to make sure that the car
is off with the ignition key in the OFF position.
WARNING
For cars with a robotised transmission, if
the engine cuts out automatically on a
gradient, it is advisable to restart the engine by
moving the gear lever towards (+) or (-) without
releasing the brake pedal. For vehicles with Dua-
logic transmission, where the Hill Holder function
is present, if the engine cuts out automatically
whilst on a hill, it is advisable to restart it by mov-
ing the gear lever towards (+) or towards (-) with-
out releasing the brake pedal to make the Hill
Holder function – which is active only when the
engine is running – available.
WARNING
If you want to prioritise climate comfort,
the Start&Stop system can be disabled to
allow continuous operation of the climate control
system.
