RADIO TRANSMITTERS
AND CELLULAR TELEPHONES
Radio transceiver equipment (e.g.: e-tacs
mobile phones, HAM radio systems and
the like) shall not be used inside the ve-
hicle unless a separate aerial is mounted
on the roof.
IMPORTANT The use of similar devices
inside the passenger compartment (with-
out separated aerial) produces radio-fre-
quency electromagnetic fields which, am-
plified by the resonance effects inside the
passenger compartment, may cause elec-
trical systems equipping the vehicle to mal-
function. This could compromise safety in
addition to constituting a potential hazard
for the passengers.
In addition, transmission and reception of
these devices may be affected by the
shielding effect of the vehicle body.
As concerns EC-approved mobile phones
(GSM, GPRS, UMTS), strictly comply with
the instructions for use provided by the
mobile phone’s manufacturer.ACCESSORIES
PURCHASED BY THE
OWNER
If after buying the vehicle, you decide to
install electrical accessories that require a
permanent electric supply (alarm, satellite
antitheft system, etc.) or accessories that
in any case burden the electric supply,
contact Fiat Dealership, whose qualified
personnel, besides suggesting the most
suitable devices belonging to Lineaccessori
Fiat, will also evaluate the overall electric
absorption, checking whether the vehicle
electric system is able to withstand the
load required, or whether it needs to be
integrated with a more powerful battery.

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
(DPF) (where provided)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechan-
ical filter, integral with the exhaust system,
that physically traps particulates present
in the exhaust gases of Diesel engine.
The diesel particulate filter has been
adopted to eliminate almost totally par-
ticulates in compliance with current / fu-
ture law regulations.
During normal use of the vehicle, the en-
gine control unit records a set of data (e.g.:
travel time, type of route, temperatures,
etc.) and it will then calculate how much
particulates has been trapped by the filter.
Since this filter physically traps particulates,
it shall be cleaned (reclaimed) at regular
intervals by burning carbon particles.
Reclaiming procedure is controlled auto-
matically by the engine control unit ac-
cording to the filter conditions and the
conditions of use of the vehicle.
During reclaiming the following phenom-
ena could take place: idling slight increase,
fan activation, slight smoke increase, high
exhaust temperatures. These situations
shall not be considered as faults and they
do not affect vehicle performance and en-
vironment.
During normal service the
diesel particulate filter (DPF)
reaches high temperatures. Do not
therefore park the vehicle over in-
flammable materials (grass, dry leaves,
pine needles, etc.): fire hazard.
WARNING
During normal service the
catalyst reaches high tem-
peratures. Do not therefore park the
vehicle over inflammable materials
(grass, dry leaves, pine needles, etc.):
fire hazard.
WARNING
PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
The devices for curtailing diesel engine
emissions are:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒ exhaust gas recirculation system
(E.G.R.);
❒diesel particulate filter (DPF) (where
provided).
Diesel re-ignition pump
In case of the lack of fuel, it is necessary
to re-start the circuit:
❒ fill the fuel tank with at least 5 litres of
diesel;
❒ activate the manual re-operation pump,
situated under the engine casing under
the protection, until the fuel appears in
the transparent tube;
❒ activate the starting engine, until the en-
gine starts.

CORRECT USE
OF THE VEHICLE
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from
the roof as soon as they are no longer
used. These accessories lower air pene-
tration and adversely affect consumption
levels. When needing to carry particular-
ly voluminous objects, preferably use a
trailer.
Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the amount
of time needed. Rear heated window, ad-
ditional headlights, windscreen wipers and
heater fan need a considerable amount of
energy, therefore increasing the require-
ment of current increases fuel consump-
tion (up to +25% in the urban cycle).
Climate control
The air conditioner is an additional load
which greatly affects the engine leading to
higher consumption (on average up to
+20%). When the temperature outside
the vehicle permits it, use the air vents
where possible.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified aerodynamic
items may adversely affect air drag and
consumption levels.DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine when the vehi-
cle is stationary or at high or low speed:
in this way the engine will warm up grad-
ually increasing consumption and emis-
sions. You should drive off slowly straight
away avoiding high revs so that the engine
will warm up more quickly.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid accelerating when waiting at traffic
lights or before switching off the engine.
This and also double declutching is ab-
solutely pointless on modern vehicles and
also increase consumption and pollution.
Gear selections
As soon as the conditions of the traffic and
road allow, use a higher gear. Using a low
gear to obtain brilliant performance in-
creases consumption.
In the same way improper use of a high
gear increases consumption, emissions an
engine wear.CONTAINING
RUNNING COSTS
Some suggestions which may help you to
keep the running costs of the vehicle
down and lower the amount of toxic emis-
sions released into the atmosphere are
given below.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Vehicle maintenance
Carry out the checks and adjustments/reg-
ulations specified in the “Service Sched-
ule”.
Tyres
Check tyre inflation pressure regularly.
Tyres should be checked at least once
every four weeks: if the pressure is too
low, fuel consumption increases as the re-
sistance to the rolling movement of the
tyre is greater.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with too much load.
The weight of the vehicle (specially in ur-
ban traffic) and its trim greatly effects con-
sumption and stability.

GENERIC FAILURE
INDICATION
(amber)
This warning light starts flashing to indi-
cate a non-serious failure. It turns on
glowing steadily to indicate a serious fail-
ure. In any case the relevant message will
be displayed.
Contact Fiat Dealership according to the
seriousness of the indication.
If the level of the diesel additive to the
anti-particulate filter (DPF version) is at
the minimum level: the warning light
switches on together with an acoustic
warning and a message on the display.
Contact Fiat Dealership.
è
ESP SYSTEM FAILURE
(amber)
Turning the ignition key to M
the warning light turns on, but it should
go off after few seconds.
If the warning light flashes, it signals an
avoided slipping of the wheels. In this
case the system optimises the drive and
it allows the improvement of the direc-
tional stability of the vehicle. If the warn-
ing light remains lit (led on the ESP
OFFbutton – switched off) it signals a
system dysfunction. In this case check
the tyre pressure and/or seek advice
from the Fiat Dealership. If the warning
light remains lit (led on the ESP OFF
button switched on) it signals the deacti-
vation of the system.
Notethe flashing of the warning light
during transit indicates the operation of
the ESP system.

IMPORTANT The Programmed Mainte-
nance coupons are specified by the Man-
ufacturer. The failure to have them car-
ried out may invalidate the warranty.
Scheduled Servicing is performed by all
Fiat Dealership, at pre-established times.
If during each operation, in addition to the
ones programmed, the need arises for fur-
ther replacements or repairs, these may
be carried out only with the explicit agree-
ment of the Customer.IMPORTANT You are advised to contact
Fiat Dealership in the event of any minor
operating faults, without waiting for the
next service coupon.
If your vehicle is used frequently for tow-
ing, the interval between one service
coupon and the other must be reduced.SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance is essential for en-
suring long life to your vehicle at top con-
ditions.
This is why Fiat has programmed a series
of checks and maintenance operations
every 30,000 km.
It is however important to remember that
scheduled servicing does not completely
cover all the vehicle’s requirements: also
in the initial period before 30,000 km ser-
vice coupon and later, between one
coupon and another, ordinary care is still
required such as for example routine
check and topping up the level of fluids,
tyre pressure check, etc...
