Selection buttons for displaying
Scroll up (button 9) or down (button 10)
for the following information, pressing a
few times briefly (the display will depend
on the vehicle's equipment and country
of sale) fig. 173.You can view the following information
on the display screen:
overall and partial odometer for the
distance travelled;
fuel consumed;
average fuel consumption;
instantaneous consumption;
expected range with remaining fuel;
distance travelled;
average speed;
service limit, oil change counter;
tyre pressure re-initialisation;
speed set on the Cruise Control /
Speed Limiter;
time and temperature;
on-board log, information message
scrolling and operational malfunction;
percentage volume of remaining
additive.Resetting the trip odometer
When the "trip meter" display is
selected, press either button 9 or 10
fig. 173 until the odometer is reset to
zero.
Resetting travel parameters
When one of the trip parameters is
selected on the display, press button
9 or 10 fig. 173 until the display is reset.
Interpreting some of the displayed
values after resetting
The further you travel after the last
reset, the more accurate and significant
the average fuel consumption,
autonomy and average speed become.
During the first kilometres travelled after
resetting, you will notice that the
autonomy increases as you travel. This
is because the system takes the
average fuel consumption since the last
reset into account. The average fuel
consumption can decrease when:
the vehicle is no longer accelerating;
the engine reaches operating
temperature (reset: cold engine);
going from urban to extra-urban
driving.
Automatic travel parameter reset
Reset is automatic when one of the
parameter's capacities is exceeded.

With the contact inserted, engine not on and the dedicated message on the
display, hold button 9 or 10 fig. 173 pressed for about 5 seconds to see the
service deadline (distance and time remaining until the next service deadline).
The following cases may occur as the next service deadline approaches:range less than 1500 km or one month: the dedicated message will appear
with the nearest due date (distance or time);
range at 0 km or the date for oil replacement reached: the dedicated
message appears on the screen along with the warning light .
The vehicle needs an oil change as soon as possible. SERVICE WITHIN 300 km / 24 DAYS
SERVICE
Depending on how old the vehicle is, the oil change limit will adapt to driving style (frequently at low speeds, door-to-door, the least prolonged
driving, towing a trailer, etc.). The distance that remains until the next oil change can, in certain cases, thus be reduced more rapidly than the
distance actually covered.
Reinitialisation:to reinitialise the oil change deadline, view the remaining range (distance and time), by holding button 9 or 10 pressed
fig. 173 for approximately 10 seconds until the fixed oil change deadline appears fixed.

ACTIVE SAFETY
SYSTEMS
Depending on the version, they can
consist of:
by the anti-lock braking system
(ABS);
electronic stability control (ESC) with
understeering and traction control
system;
driving with a trailer assistance;
emergency brake assistance;
road grip control;
assisted departure on inclines.
ABS (Anti-lock Braking
System)
142) 143) 144) 145)
In case of sharp braking, the ABS
avoids wheel locking, so it manages the
braking distance and maintains vehicle
control.
In these conditions you can carry out
manoeuvres while braking fully.
Moreover, this system optimises the
braking distance, especially on slippery
surfaces (wet roadbed, etc.).
Every time you activate this device, you
know because the brake pedal shakes.
The ABS never improves the "physical"
performance associated with grip
between the wheel and the road. The
rules of the road must be respected
(safety distance between vehicles, etc.).IMPORTANT In an emergency, we
advise you to apply strong, continuous
pressure to the brake pedal. You do not
need to pump it. The ABS will modulate
the force applied to the brakes.
Irregular operation:
andlit on the instrument
panel accompanied by the dedicated
message on the display indicate
deactivation of the ABS, of the ESC
and of the emergency servo brake.
Braking is always guaranteed;
andSTOPlit on the
instrument panel, along with the
dedicated message on the display,
indicates that there is a fault in the
brake system.
In both cases, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) SYSTEM
146) 147)
Electronic stability control ESC
This system helps maintain control of
the vehicle in "critical" driving conditions
(avoiding an obstacle, loss of grip in a
curve, etc.).
Operating principle
A sensor on the steering wheel
recognises the driving trajectory that the
driver set.
Other sensors installed in the vehicle
measure the real trajectory.The system compares the driver's
adherence to the effective trajectory,
correcting it if necessary, braking a few
wheels and/or reducing engine power if
the system was activated and its
warning light
flashes on the
instrument panel.
Understeering control
This system optimises the ESC action
in case of noticeable understeer (loss of
front grip).
Traction Control System
This system limits the drive wheels
slipping and helps control the vehicle
when starting out, accelerating or
decelerating.
Operating principle
Thanks to the sensor in the wheels, the
system measures and compares the
drive wheel rotation speed, detecting
immediately loss of grip. If a wheel
starts sliding, the system intervenes by
braking to re-stabilise the drive that is
compatible with the level of road grip.
The system also acts on the engine
speed, adapting it to wheel road grip,
independently of the driver's use of the
accelerator.
Irregular operation
When the system detects an
operational irregularity, the dedicated
message appears on the display and
the warning lights
andturn
on.
126
SAFETY

In this case, the ESC and traction
control system are deactivated. Contact
a Fiat Dealership.
PBA (Panic Brake
Assist) SYSTEM
This is a complementary system to the
ABS that lets you reduce the vehicle's
braking distance.
Operating principle
The system detects an emergency
braking situation. In such cases, the
power brake immediately creates the
maximum braking, causing the ABS
system to also intervene.
ABS intervention lasts until the brake
pedal is released.
Hazard warning lights on
Depending on the versions, these lights
can go on when you slow down
abruptly.
Anticipated braking
Depending on the versions, when you
quickly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates braking so as to
diminish the braking distance.
When using Cruise Control:
if you are using the accelerator pedal,
with you release it, the system can
activate;
if you are not using the accelerator
pedal, the system will not activate.Irregular operation
When the system detects an
operational irregularity, the message to
that effect will appear on the instrument
panel with the alarm light
going
on.
Contact a Fiat Dealership.
TSA (Trailer Stability
Assist) DRIVING
ASSISTANCE WITH A
TRAILER
This system helps you maintain control
of the vehicle in case you are using a
trailer. It detects the swinging motion of
the trailer in certain driving conditions.
Operating conditions
the towing system must be
type-approved by the Fiat Dealership;
the wiring has to be approved by a
Fiat Dealership;
the trailer has to be connected to the
vehicle.
Operating principle
The function stabilises the vehicle by:
asymmetrical front wheel braking to
reduce swinging caused by the trailer;
four wheel braking and a limitation in
engine torque to reduce the vehicle
speed until the swinging stops.
The warning light
flashes on the
instrument panel to inform you of the
situation.
TRACTION PLUS
(GRIP CONTROL)
147) 23)
Where the vehicle is provided with one,
road grip check ensures easier control
of the vehicle in conditions where grip is
reduced (crumbly terrain).
"Road" mode
When the vehicle is started, the
appropriate message appears on the
display screen. The indicator light
on the instrument panel is off. This
position guarantees optimal use in
normal road conditions (dry, wet
roadbed, light snow, etc.).
The "Road" mode uses the traction
control system functions.
"Traction +" Mode
Press button 1 fig. 207: the warning
light
on the instrument panel turns
on along with the dedicated message.

TPMS –
Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System
(For versions/markets where provided)
Tyre pressure loss warning
This system warns the driver of any
pressure loss in one or more of the
tyres.
Operating principle
Each wheel (except the spare) has a
built-in sensor in the inflation valve that
measures tyre pressure at regular
intervals while driving. Warning light 1
fig. 208 stays on to warn the driver in
case of tyre pressure loss (deflated tyre,
puncture, etc.).Re-initialising the tyre pressure
reference value
This operation must be done:when the tyre reference pressure has
to be changed so it can be adapted to
use conditions (empty, with a load,
highway driving, etc.);
after tyre rotation ( however, this
practice is not advised);
after replacing a tyre.
This operation must always be done
after a cold tyre inflation pressure of all
the tyres.
Inflation pressure has to correspond to
the vehicle's current use (empty, with a
load, highway driving, etc.).
Re-initialisation procedure
With the engine running and the vehicle
stationary.
briefly press on button 3 or 4
fig. 209 to select the "TYRE
PRESSURE SET < LONG PRESS >"
function on display panel 2;
keep button 3 or 4 pressed (for
about 3 seconds) to start initialisation.
The appropriate message indicates that
the request to restore the tyre pressure
reference values is being processed.
A few minutes of driving is required to
complete the initialisation.NOTE The tyre pressure reference value
must not be less than that advised and
indicated on the the driver's door pillar.
Display
The display 2 fig. 209 on the instrument
panel indicates any inflation faults
(deflated tyre, puncture, etc.).
Warning light 1 fig. 208 stays on
permanently along with the message to
that effect. This indicates that at least
one tyre is deflated.
If necessary, check and adjust the
pressure of the four tyres when cold.
The warning light goes off after driving
for a few minutes.
IMPORTANT Unexpected loss of tyre
pressure (blowout, etc.) might not be
detected by the system.
The warning light turns on fixed
together with a dedicated message and
an acoustic signal.
208T36504-4
209T36518-2
129

This message is accompanied by the
STOPwarning light.
This means that at least one of the tyres
is punctured or is very deflated.
Replace it or contact a Fiat Dealership if
it is punctured. Re-inflate the tyre if it is
deflated.
Warning light 1 fig. 208 flashes for a few
seconds before remaining permanent
along with the message to that effect.
This message is accompanied by the
light.
They indicate that one of the tyres has
no sensors (for example the spare). In
all other cases, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
New regulations concerning tyre
pressure
The tyre pressure must be checked
when cold(see the label located on
the driver's door pillar). If tyre pressure
checking cannot be donecold,
increase the pressure 0.2-0.3 bar
(3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Vehicle equipped with TPMS
In the event of a flat tyre (puncture,
insufficient inflation, etc.), the
warning light on the instrument
panel will turn on. Refer to the “TPMS –
TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM” paragraph.Spare wheel
If the vehicle has one, the spare tyre
has no sensors. When this is mounted
on the vehicle, warning light 1
fig. 208 flashes for a few seconds
before staying on together with the
warning light, while a dedicated
message is displayed on the instrument
panel.
Spray can to repair the tyres and
inflation kit
According to the valve specifics, only
use equipment approved by a Fiat
Dealership. Please see the paragraph
"Tyre kit" in the "Emergency" chapter.
IMPORTANT This function provides an
additional aid to the driver; however, it
cannot replace him. It does not exempt
you from ordinary driving safety or from
responsibility in case of an accident.
Check tyre pressure, including the
spare tyre, once a month.
IMPORTANT For the safety of the driver
and anyone else on board, you must
stop as soon as traffic conditions allow
when theSTOPwarning light turns on.
