SEAT BELT REMINDER LIGHT
(for versions/markets, where provided)
60G049
When the driver doesn’t buckle his or her
seat belt, this light will come on.
63J030
This light blinks or comes on for several
seconds when the ignition switch is turned
to the “ON” position so you can check if
the light is working.
The light will come on and stay on if there
is a problem in the air bag system or the
seat belt pretensioner system (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided). CHARGING LIGHT
50G052A
This light comes on when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position, and
goes out when the engine is started. The
light will come on and remain on if there
is something wrong with the battery charg-
ing system. If the light comes on when the
engine is running, the charging system
should be inspected immediately by your
Fiat Dealership.For details about the seat belt reminder, re-
fer to “Seat Belts and Child Restraint Sys-
tems” in the “BEFORE DRIVING” section.
“AIR BAG” LIGHT
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Change the engine oil and
filter at the first blink of the
light. If you keep operating the engine
after the light blinks, severe engine
damage can result.
WARNING
If this light comes on when the engine is
running, you should change the engine oil
and oil filter immediately since the moni-
toring system has calculated that oil life
has been diminished by detecting a dete-
rioration, increase or decrease of engine
oil.
When the engine oil and oil filter are
changed, and the oil life monitoring sys-
tem is reset, this light will go out. For de-
tails on how to change the engine oil, re-
fer to “Changing Engine Oil and Filter” in
“INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE”
section. Whenever the engine oil is
changed, the light must be reset to mon-
itor the next oil change timing properly.
To reset the light, consult your Fiat Deal-
ership.
If the “AIR BAG” light does
not blink or come on briefly
when the ignition switch is turned to
the “ON” position, stays on for more
than 10 seconds, or comes on while
driving, the air bag system or the seat
belt pretensioner system (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided) may
not work properly. Have both systems
inspected by an authorized Fiat Deal-
ership.

NOTE Your vehicle uses the air condi-
tioning refrigerant HFC-134a, commonly
called “R-134a”. R-134a replaced R-12
around 1993 for automotive applications.
Other refrigerants are available, including
recycled R-12, but only R-134a should be
used in your vehicle.
IMPORTANT Using the wrong refriger-
ant may damage your air conditioning sys-
tem. Use R-134a only. Do not mix or re-
place the R-134a with other refrigerants.AUTOMATIC HEATING

If you do not use the air conditioner for
a long period, such as during winter, it may
not give the best performance when you
start using it again. To help maintain op-
timum performance and durability of your
air conditioner, it needs to be run peri-
odically. Operate the air conditioner at
least once a month for one minute with
the engine idling. This circulates the re-
frigerant and oil and helps protect the in-
ternal components.
Your air conditioner is equipped with air
filters. Clean or replace them as specified
in the “Maintenance Schedule” in the “IN-
SPECTION AND MAINTENANCE” sec-
tion. Have this job done by your Fiat Deal-
ership as the lower glove box must be
lowered for this job.

Too high a volume when dri-
ving can put the driver’s life
at risk and that of other people.
Therefore the volume should always
be adjusted in such a way that it is al-
ways possible to hear the noises of
the surrounding environment (e.g.:
horns, ambulance, police sirens, etc.).
WARNING
FM/MW/LW CD PLAYER WITH
CD CHANGER CONTROL
PRECAUTIONS
❒When the inside of the vehicle is very
cold and the player is used soon after
switching on the heater, moisture may
form on the disc or the optical parts
of the player and proper playback may
not be possible. If moisture forms on
the disc, wipe it off with a soft cloth. If
moisture forms on the optical parts of
the player, do not use the player for
about one hour, this will allow the con-
densation to disappear normally.

flection according to the following chart.
The belts should also be examined to en-
sure that they are not damaged.
If you need to replace or adjust the belt
