Label A fig. 274
To read it open the driver's door
fig. 275.
B: front tyre inflation pressure when
not driving on a highway, or when there
are fewer than four people on board.
C: rear tyre pressure inflation when
not driving on a highway, or when there
are fewer than four people on board.
D: pressure inflation for front tyres
when travelling on a highway or when
there is a significant load.
E: pressure inflation for rear tyres
when travelling on a highway or when
there is a significant load.
IMPORTANT For cars used at full load
(Maximum Authorised Mass) and with a
tow trailer, the maximum speed must
not exceed 100 km/h and the tyre
pressure must be increased by 0.2 bar.
Refer to the “Weights” paragraph on
the “Technical data” chapter.Risk of
tyres bursting.
SPARE TYRE
Please see the paragraph "Replacing a
tyre" in the "Emergency" chapter.
SUGGESTIONS ABOUT
THE ROTATION OF THE
TYRES
We advise you not to do this kind of
operation.
WINTER USE
55) 56) 57) 58)
Chains
For safety reasons, mounting snow
chains on the rear axle is prohibited.
The use of larger sized tyres than the
original ones makes fitting chains
impossible.Snow tyres
We advise you to fit these tyres to
guarantee the best vehicle grip
possible.
IMPORTANT These tyres sometimes
mean a maximum speed limit that may
be less than vehicle’s maximum speed.
Studded tyres
(For versions/markets where provided)
This type of tyre can only be used for a
limited period determined by local laws.
You need to respect the speed limits
imposed by local laws in effect.
These tyres can be fitted on at least
both front wheels.
In any case, it is advisable to
contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
206)Insufficient pressure can cause the
tyres to wear early and heat up abnormally,
with obvious consequences for safety;
poor road grip, risk of blow-out or treads
detaching. Inflation pressure depends on
the load and the speed. Adjust the
pressure according to the conditions of
use (see the label located on the inside of
the driver's door pillar).
207)For safety reasons, only a specialised
technician should carry out this operation.
Fitting a different type of tyre can alter the
vehicle's compliance with the regulations in
force, cornering performance, steering and
fitting snow chains.

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO
Using the starter motor
The instrument panel warning lights are dim
or do not turn on, the starter motor does not
turn over.Battery terminal loose, disconnected or
rusted.Tighten it, reconnect it or clean it if it is
rusted.
Battery run down or out of order.Connect another battery to the defective one.
See the paragraph "Emergency starting" or
replace the battery if necessary. Do not push
the vehicle if the steering wheel lock is
engaged.
Circuit defective. Contact a Fiat Dealership.
The engine does not start.Starting conditions were not satisfied.Refer to the “Starting the engine” paragraph
in the “Knowing your vehicle” chapter.
The electronic key "easy access" does not
work.Insert the key in the reader to start the
engine. Refer to the “Starting the engine”
paragraph in the “Knowing your vehicle”
chapter.
The engine does not stop.Electronic key not recognised. Insert key into the reader.
Electronic problem.Press the starter button five times in a row,
quickly.
The steering wheel stays locked.Steering wheel locked.Turn the steering wheel and press the start
button at the same time (refer to the "Starting
the engine” paragraph in the “Knowing your
vehicle” chapter).
Circuit defective. Contact a Fiat Dealership.
During driving
White smoke coming from the exhaust pipe.This does not necessarily indicate a defect:
the smoke comes from regenerating the
particulate filter.Please see the paragraph "Details about the
Diesel version".

TECHNICAL DATA

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO
Smoke coming from underneath the vehicle
when starting the heating.This does not necessarily indicate a fault: the
smoke comes from the boiler.
In this case, the smoke will gradually
disappear when the passenger compartment
has reached the right temperature.
Smoke coming from the engine
compartment.Short circuit or leaks from the cooling circuit.Stop, remove the starter device, move away
from the vehicle and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
The oil pressure warning light goes on in a
curve or when braking.The oil level is too low.Add engine oil (see the paragraph "Warning
lights and messages" in the chapter
"Knowing the instrument panel").
The oil pressure warning light goes on and
delays going off or stays on when you
accelerate.Low oil pressure. Stop and contact a Fiat Dealership.
Steering becomes hard. Power steering is overheating. Contact a Fiat Dealership.
Vibrations.Badly inflated tyres, badly balanced or
damaged.Check the tyre pressure; if the defect
persists, have it checked at a Fiat Dealership.
The engine overheats. The coolant liquid
temperature indicator is in the alarm area and
theSTOPwarning light goes on.The cooling fan is out of order.Stop, turn off the engine and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
Coolant liquid leak.Check the coolant liquid tank: there should
be liquid in it. In not, contact a Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible.
Coolant liquid boiling in the tank.

damaged.Stop the engine and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
