ENGINE RUN-IN
Until you have gone 1,500 km, do not
exceed 130 km/h on the highest ratio,
or 2,500 rpm. After that mileage, you
can push the engine harder, but the
vehicle will perform better only after
having travelled 6,000 kilometres.
During the running-in period, do not
accelerate abruptly while the engine is
cold, and avoid running it too fast.
Coupon frequency:refer to the

WARNING
138)Do not start the vehicle on an incline
with the gear in neutral. The power steering
might not activate. Risk of accident.
139)It is dangerous to run the engine in
enclosed areas. The engine takes in
oxygen and releases carbon dioxide,
carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.
140)The brake servo is not active until the
engine is started, so you would need to
apply much more force than usual to the
brake pedal.
141)Do not start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. These
manoeuvres may damage the catalytic
converter.
142)Do not remove the key from the
starter device or the electronic key from the
reader before effectively stopping the
vehicle; stopping the engine means
deleting various aids: When the engine is
stopped, the power brakes, power steering
and safety devices like the air bags and
pre-tensioners no longer work.
143)Especially when you leave the car
with the electronic key in your pocket,
make sure the engine is effectively
stopped.206T36626-1

A general grade from 0 to 100 appears
that allows you to assess your
ecological driving performance: high
values mean reduced fuel consumption.
Below is some ecological advice to
improve your performance. Store your
preferred routes lets you compare
performances. For further information,
refer to the RADIO/TOUCH – RADIO
NAV supplement.
ECOMODE
ECOMODE is a function that optimises
fuel consumption. It acts on a few of
the vehicle's uses (heating, air
conditioning, power steering, etc.) and
on a few driving operations
(acceleration, gear shift, speed
regulation, deceleration, etc.).
Activation of the function
Press button 4 fig. 219.
TheECOfig. 220 indicator light 5 on
the instrument panel turns on to
confirm that it has been activated.
While driving, you can temporarily leave
the ECOMODE function to reset all
engine performances.
To do this, press the accelerator pedal
firmly.
The ECOMODE function is reactivated
as soon as you release the accelerator.Deactivating the function
Press button 4 fig. 219.
TheECOfig. 220 warning light 5 on the
instrument panel turns off to confirm
that it has been deactivated.
Behaviour
Rather than heat the engine while
stopped, we advise you to drive
moderately until the engine reaches its
normal operating temperature.
Speed increases fuel consumption.
Do not strain the engine by
exceeding speed in intermediary gears.
Use the highest gear.
Avoid sudden acceleration.
Brake as little as possible. By
assessing the danger or curve in
advance, it will be sufficient to lift your
foot off the accelerator.
When going uphill, we advise you to
keep a steady speed, without having to
change it.
In modern vehicles, double clutching
before stopping the engine is not
necessary and could even cause
damage.Tyres fig. 221
Pressure too low can increase fuel
consumption.
Using unsuitable tyres can increase
fuel consumption.

To take the kit out, move the seat as far
forward as possible and lower the
backrest.Undo the tool bag fixing screw C
fig. 258 and then turn the bag to
remove it.
Precautions for using the kit
The kit must not be used for more than
15 consecutive minutes.
With the engine started and the
handbrake engaged;
unwind the hose from the canister;
connect compressor hose 3
fig. 259 to the canister 8,
depending on the versions, connect
or screw in canister 8 to the
compressor where there is a hollow 7
fig. 259;
unscrew the tyre valve cap involved
and screw the inflation hose 1 fig. 259;
disconnect all the accessories
previously connected to the accessory
socket;
only connect plug 2 fig. 259 to the
vehicle’s accessory socket;
press switch 4 fig. 259 to inflate the
tyre to the prescribed pressure (refer to
the "Tyre inflation pressure” paragraph
in the “Maintenance and care” chapter);
after 15 minutes at most, stop
inflating;
NOTE While emptying the canister
(about 30 seconds), the pressure gauge
5 fig. 259 briefly indicates a pressure of
up to 6 bar, then it goes back down
again.
adjust the pressure: to increase it,
continue inflating the tyre with the kit; to
lower it, press button 6 fig. 259.
If after 15 minutes a minimum pressure
of 1.8 bar has not been reached, it
means that you cannot repair the tyre;
do not drive and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
Once the tyre has been correctly
inflated, remove the kit: slowly unscrew
the inflation hose 1 fig. 259 so the
product does not spatter and replace
the canister in a plastic bag so that the
product does not leak out.
Attach the instruction label on the
dashboard where the driver can see it;
replace the kit in the tool bag and put
it back under the driver's seat;
when the first inflation has been
done, the tyre will continue to lose air
and you need to start driving again to
plug the hole;
