LOW FUEL WARNING LIGHT
54G391
This light remains on until all doors (in-
cluding the rear door) are completely
closed.
54G343
If this light comes on, fill the fuel tank im-
mediately.
NOTE The activation point of this light
varies depending on road conditions (for
example, slope or curve) and driving con-
ditions because of fuel moving in the tank. OPEN DOOR WARNING LIGHT FUEL FILTER WARNING LIGHT

WARNING LIGHT
(for Diesel Engine Model)

64J244If the light comes on when driving, there
is a possibility to have water in the fuel
filter. Drain water as soon as possible. For
details of draining water, refer to “Fuel Fil-
ter” in the “INSPECTION AND MAIN-
TENANCE” section.
IMPORTANT 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 system re-
lieved. If the above indications come on
immediately after refuelling, water has
probably been poured into the tank: turn
the engine off immediately and contact Fi-
at Dealership.If the light comes on when driving, the
diesel particulate filter is nearly clogged.
To regenerate the diesel particulate filter,
we recommend that you drive the vehicle
until the light goes out, at an average speed
of 50 km/h (31 mph) for about 5 minutes.
When the regeneration of the diesel par-
ticulate filter is completed by your driving,
this warning light will go out.
For details, refer to “Diesel Particulate Fil-
ter” in the “OPERATING YOUR VEHI-
CLE” section.

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
Diesel Particulate Filter warning
lightHowever, you should drive carefully with
keeping the legal speed limit, and take care
the surrounding traffic condition.
If you drive your vehicle at an average
speed of 50 km/h (31 mph) for about 5 min-
utes, the regeneration of the diesel partic-
ulate filter will be completed and the Diesel
Particulate Filter warning light will go out.
IMPORTANT Be sure to regenerate the
diesel particulate filter when the Diesel Par-
ticulate Filter warning light comes on. Non-
regenerate the diesel particulate filter will
cause the vehicle malfunction due to the
clogged filter.
NOTE When you drive your vehicle, the
white smoke may be emitted depending on
the grade of fuel used. This is due to the
particle filter being regenerated automati-
cally, and does not affect the way the ve-
hicle runs.
64J244
If the Diesel Particulate Filter warning light
comes on when driving, there is a risk of
the particle filter becoming clogged. You
should regenerate the diesel particulate fil-
ter when the Diesel Particulate Filter warn-
ing light comes on. To regenerate the diesel
particulate filter, we recommend that you
drive the vehicle until the light goes out,
at an average speed of 50 km/h (31 mph)
for about 5 minutes.Vehicle With Keyless Start System

NOTE If your engine is equipped with the
hightension cord type ignition wiring and
you experience some firing problem of
spark plugs, such as, hard engine- starting,
misfire etc., the cause may be located not
only on spark plugs but also on deterio-
rated ignition wirings (generally, used for
more than 80000 km or five years). If
spark plug replacement does not solve the
problem, have the ignition wiring and oth-
er ignition system inspected by your Fiat
Dealership.FUEL FILTER
(Diesel engine)
The fuel filter works as a water sedimen-
tor as well.
Drain water when the fuel filter warning
light comes on. To drain water:
❒Place a pan or ample rag under the fu-
el filter drain nozzle.
❒Loosen the drain knob (1). The water
will be drained.
❒Tighten the drain knob when the water
changes to the diesel fuel.
❒Tighten the drain knob.
