CONTENTS
Do not take unnecessary risks, even if your
vehicle is fitted with an ESP system. Your
driving style must always be suited to the road
conditions, visibility and traffic. The driver is al-
ways ultimately responsible for road safety.
WARNING
HILL HOLDER SYSTEM
This system is an integral part of the ESP system and it
facilitates hill starts.
It is automatically activated in the following conditions:
❒uphill: vehicle stationary on a road with a gradient high-
er than 5%, engine running, brake pedal pressed and
gearbox in neutral or gear other than reverse;
❒downhill: vehicle stationary on a road with a gradient
higher than 5%, engine running, brake pedal pressed and
reverse gear engaged.During start-up, the ESP system control unit maintains the
braking pressure at the wheels until the engine torque
required for departure is reached, or for a maximum of
1 second, allowing your right foot to be moved easily from
the brake pedal to the accelerator.
If the vehicle has not departed after this time, the system
will deactivate automatically by gradually releasing the
brake force.
At release, the typical brake disengagement noise indicat-
ing that the car is going to move will be heard.

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.

USING THE MANUAL GEARBOX
To engage the gears, depress the clutch pedal fully and shift
the gear lever into the required positions (the diagram is
shown on the gear knob fig. 148).
To engage 6
thgear (for versions/markets where provided),
push firmly to the right when operating the lever in or-
der to avoid selecting 4
thgear by mistake. The same ap-
plies to the shift from 6thto 5thgear.
IMPORTANT Reverse may be engaged only when the car
is at a standstill. With the engine running, wait for at least
2 seconds with the clutch pedal fully depressed before en-
gaging reverse to prevent damage to the gears and grating.
To engage reverse R from neutral with a six-speed gearbox,
proceed as follows: lift ring A under the knob and at the
same time move the gear lever to the left and then forwards
fig. 148
Depress the clutch pedal fully to change
gear correctly. Therefore, the floor area
under the pedals should be clear: ensure that any
rubber mats are flat and do not interfere with the
pedals.
WARNING
Do not drive with your hand resting on the
gear lever, because this pressure, even if
light, can wear out the inner components
of the gearbox over time.
IMPORTANT The clutch pedal should be used only for
changing gear. Do not drive with your foot resting on the
clutch pedal, however slightly. For versions/markets where
provided, the electronic clutch control can intervene if it
interprets the incorrect driving style as a fault.

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
GENERAL WARNINGS
Warning lights are accompanied by a specific message
and/or sound when applicable. These indications are brief
and precautionary and as such must not be considered as
exhaustive and/or alternative to the information contained
in the Owner’s Handbook, which you are recommended
to read carefully in all cases. Always refer to the informa-
tion in this chapter in the event of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT The fault indicators appearing on the dis-
play are divided into two categories: very serious and less
serious failures.
Serious failures prompt a prolonged cycle of signals.
Less serious failures prompt a shorter cycle of signals.
Press MENU ESC to stop the warning cycle in both cas-
es. Warning lights on the instrument panel will stay on un-
til the cause of the failure is eliminated.
For messages relevant to the versions equipped with
a Dualogic gearbox, see the attached Supplement.

BRAKE FLUID LOW (red)
HANDBRAKE ENGAGED (red)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR posi-
tion, the warnintg light turns on but should go off
after a few seconds.
Brake fluid low
The warning light turns on when the level of the brake flu-
id in the reservoir falls below the minimum level, possi-
bly due to a leak in the circuit.
On some versions the display shows the associated mes-
sage.
x
Handbrake engaged
The warning light turns on when the handbrake is on.
If the car is moving, an audible warning will also sound on
certain versions.

STARTING THE ENGINE
EMERGENCY STARTING
If the instrument panel warning light
Ystays on perma-
nently, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately.
JUMP STARTING fig. 150
If the battery is flat, the engine may be started using an aux-
iliary battery with an equal or slightly higher capacity than the
flat one. It is advisable to contact a Fiat Dealership so the bat-
tery can be checked/replaced.
IN AN EMERGENCY
In an emergency we recommend that you call the freephone number found in the Warranty Booklet. You can
also go to the www.fiat.com website to find your nearest Fiat Dealership.
This procedure must be performed by ex-
perts because incorrect actions may cause
considerable electrical discharge. Furthermore,
battery fluid is poisonous and corrosive: avoid con-
tact with skin and eyes. Keep naked flames and
lit cigarettes away from the battery. Do not cre-
ate sparks.
WARNING
Proceed as follows to start the car:
❒connect the positive terminals (+ sign near the termi-
nal) of the two batteries with a jump lead;
❒with a second lead, connect the negative terminal (–) of
the auxiliary battery to an earthing point Eon the en-
gine or the gearbox of the car to be started;
❒ start the engine;
❒when the engine has been started, follow the sequence
above in reverse order to remove the leads.
If after a few attempts the engine does not start, do not
keep trying but contact a Fiat Dealership.

HEAVY USAGE OF THE VEHICLE
Should the car be used predominantly in one of the fol-
lowing particularly demanding conditions:
❒ trailer or caravan towing;
❒ dusty roads;
❒short (less than 7-8 km) and repeated journeys in sub-
zero temperatures;
❒frequently idling engine or long-distance, low-speed dri-
ving (e.g. door-to-door deliveries), or in the event of
long-term inactivity;
❒ in cities;
perform the following inspections more frequently than
shown on the Scheduled Servicing Plan:
❒ check condition and wear of front disc brake pads;
❒check cleanliness of bonnet and boot locks, as well as
cleanliness and lubrication of linkages;
❒visually inspect the conditions of: engine, gearbox, trans-
mission, pipes and tubes (exhaust – fuel – brakes), rub-
ber parts (boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.);
❒check battery charge and liquid level (electrolyte);
❒ visually inspect condition of accessory drive belts;
❒ check pollen filter and replace it, if required;
❒ check air filter and replace, if required.
REGULAR CHECKS
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys, check and, if nec-
essary, top up:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressures and conditions;
❒operation of lighting system (headlights, direction indi-
cators, hazard lights, etc.);
❒operation of the windscreen wiper/washer system, po-
sition and wear of the windscreen and rear window
wiper blades;
Check and top up, if required, the engine oil level every
3,000 km.
You are recommended to use PETRONAS LUBRICANTS
products, which have been designed and produced specif-
ically for Fiat cars (see table “Capacities” in the “Techni-
cal specifications” section).
