Disengagement
Move the steering wheel slightly as you turn the
ignition key to MAR.
WARNING
Never extract the key while the vehicle
is moving.The steering wheel should lock
automatically as soon as it is turned.This also
applies to cases in which the vehicle is towed. It
is absolutely forbidden to carr y out any
after-market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifications (e.g.
installation of anti-theft device) that could
badly affect performance and safety, invalidate
the warranty and also result in the car failing
to comply with regulations.
ON-BOARD INSTRUMENTS
The instrument background colour and type may
vary according to the versions.
SPEEDOMETER (speed indicator)
Indicates vehicle speed.
REV COUNTER
The rev counter shows the number of engine
revolutions per minute.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection control system
gradually shuts off the flow of fuel when the engine
is over-revving, resulting in a gradual loss of engine
power.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter may
indicate a gradual or sudden increase of the speed.

STARTING AND DRIVING
STARTING THE ENGINE
The vehicle is fitted with an immobiliser: if the engine
fails to start, see the paragraph on “The Fiat CODE
system” in the “Knowing your vehicle” section.
The engine may be noisier during the first few
seconds of operation, particularly after a long period
of inactivity. This is due to the hydraulic tappets,
the timing system chosen for petrol engine versions
to reduce the number of servicing interventions,
and affects neither functionality nor reliability.
It is advisable not to demand maximum
performance from your vehicle (e.g.
excessive acceleration, long distances at
high speeds, excessive intense braking, etc .) during
the initial period of use.
When the engine is switched off never
leave the key on (at MAR) to prevent
unnecessary consumption and draining
the battery.
WARNING
It is dangerous to have the engine
running indoors.The engine takes in
oxygen and discharges carbon dioxide, carbon
monoxide and other toxic gases.
WARNING
Remember that the brake booster and
electric power steering are not
operational until the engine has been started,
so you need to apply much more force than
usual to the brake pedal and steering wheel.

WARNING
This procedure must be performed by
experts because incorrect actions may
cause considerable electrical discharge.
Furthermore, battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive: avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Keep naked flames and lit cigarettes away from
the battery. Do not create sparks.
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by pushing, towing or
driving downhill. This could cause fuel to flow into
the catalytic converter 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.
CHANGING A WHEEL
The vehicle is originally equipped with the Fix&Go
automatic quick tyre repair kit (see instructions
in the next section). As an alternative, the vehicle
may have a normal-sized spare wheel.
Wheel changing and correct use of the jack and
spare wheel call for some precautions, as listed
below.
WARNING
The spare wheel (for versions/markets,
where provided) is specifically for your
vehicle.Therefore, it must not be used on other
models. Do not use spare wheels of other
models on your vehicle.The spare wheel must
be used only in an emergency. Use of the spare
wheel must be strictly reduced to the necessary
minimum.

CHECKING LEVELS
When topping up, take care not to mix up
the various types of fluids: they are not
compatible with each other and could
seriously damage the car.
WARNING
Never smoke while working in the
engine compar tment : inflammable gases
and vapours may be present , constituting a fire
risk.

POWER STEERING FLUID
Loose the cap A fig. 187: check that the fluid in the
reservoir is included between the MIN and MAX
on the reservoir.
The level may exceed the MAX mark when the oil is
hot. If topping up is required, make sure the oil
you use has the same specifications as that already in
the system.
WARNING
Prevent power steering fluid from
coming into contact with hot engine
parts: it is flammable.
Power steering fluid consumption is
extremely low; if another top-up is
required after only a short period of time,
have the system checked for leaks at a Fiat
Dealership.
