ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the vehicle, you decide to add electrical accessories (that will gradually drain the battery), visit a
Fiat Dealership. They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the vehicle’s electric system can sup-
port the required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance of the vehicle is essential for ensuring it stays in tip-top condition and safeguards its safety fea-
tures, its environmental friendliness and low running costs for a long time to come.
THE OWNER HANDBOOK CONTAINS…
… information, tips and important warnings regarding the safe, correct driving of your vehicle, and its maintenance.
Pay particular attention to the symbols

Moving the seat backwards or
forwards fig. 17
Lift the lever Aand push the seat forwards
or backwards: in the driving position the
arms should rest on the rim of the steer-
ing wheel. Once you have released the
lever, check that the seat is firmly locked
in the runners by trying to move it back
and forth.
Once you have released the
lever, check that the seat is
firmly locked in the runners by trying
to move it back and forth. Failure to
lock the seat in place could result in
the seat moving suddenly and the dri-
ver losing control of the vehicle.
WARNING
For maximum safety, keep
the back of your seat up-
right, lean back into it and make sure
the seat belt fits closely across your
chest and hips.
WARNING
Regulation of the height of the
driver’s seat fig. 17-18
Depending on the version and the configu-
ration of the vehicle, it is equipped with: ❒
a passive regulation: pull lever B
upwards, therefore get off the seat in
order to allow it to rise.
❒
an active regulation: pull lever D
upwards or downwards until the
desired position is desired.
Back rest angle adjustment fig. 17
Use lever C and adjust the back rest.
Do not remove the seats or
carry out servicing and/or re-
pair operations since incorrect oper-
ations could impair the regular op-
eration of safety devices: always con-
tact Fiat Dealership.

OF THE VEHICLE
ENGINE STARTINGThe vehicle is fitted with an electronic en-
gine lock device: if the engine fails to start,
see the paragraph “The Fiat CODE sys-
tem” in section “Dashboard and controls”.
The engine may be noisier than usual dur-
ing the first seconds of operation, espe-
cially after it has not been used for a while.
This characteristic feature does not com-
promise functionality or reliability of the
hydraulic tappets: the timing system de-
vised to limit servicing.
We recommend that during
the initial period you do not
drive to full vehicle perfor-
mance (e.g.: excessive accel-
eration, long journeys at top speed,
sharp braking, etc.).
When the engine is switched
off never leave the key into
the ignition switch to prevent
pointless current absorption
from draining the battery.Running the engine in con-
fined areas is extremely dan-
gerous. The engine consumes oxygen
and produces carbon monoxide
which is a highly toxic and lethal gas.
WARNING
Remember that the servo-
brake and power steering
are not operational until the engine
has been started, therefore much ef-
fort than usual is required on the
brake pedal and steering wheel.
WARNING
Dashboard and controls
Proceed as follows:❒
Ensure that the handbrake is up;
❒
Put the gear lever into neutral;
❒
Turn the ignition key to M: the warn-
ing light
m
on the instrument panel
display will turn on;
❒
Wait for the warning light
m
to turn
off. The hotter the engine is, the quick-
er this will happen;
❒
Press the clutch pedal down to the
floor without touching the accelerator;
❒
Turn the ignition key to Das soon as
warning light
m
goes out. If you wait
too long you will lose the benefit of the
work done by the glow plugs. Release
the key as soon as the engine starts.

light
By turning the key to the Mposition, the warning light lights up, but it must switch itself off af-
ter a few seconds. The warning light lights up when the Cruise Control is activated.
The warning light lights up when the speed restrictor is activated.
Turning the ignition key to Mthe warning light turns on and it will turn off when glow plugs
reach the preset temperature. Start the engine immediately after warning light switching off.
IMPORTANT With hot ambient temperature, warning light stays on for very short time.
Turning the ignition key to Mthe warning light turns on, but it should go off after few sec-
onds. The warning light turns on when there is water in the diesel fuel filter.m
The presence of water in the fuel circuit may cause serious damage to the
entire injection system and cause irregular engine operation. If the warning
light turns on, contact Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to have the sys-
tem relieved. If the above indications come on immediately after refuelling,
water has probably been poured into the tank: turn the engine off immediately and
contact Fiat Dealership.
Turning the ignition key to M, the warning light turns on, but it should go off after few sec-
onds. The warning light turns on when a scheduled servicing operation is to be carried out.

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 SERVICINGCorrect 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...
