Symbol What it means
DPF CLEANING in progress (Diesel versions with DPF only)
The symbol switches on constantly to indicate that the DPF system needs to eliminate the
trapped pollutants (particulate) through the regeneration process.
The symbol does not switch on during every DPF regeneration, but only when driving
conditions require that the driver is notified. To turn off the symbol, keep the vehicle in motion
until the regeneration process is over. On average, the process lasts 15 minutes. Optimal
conditions for completing the process are achieved by travelling at 60 km/h with engine speed
above 2000 rpm.
When this symbol switches on, it does not indicate a vehicle failure and thus it should not be
taken to a workshop.
17)
PARKING SENSOR FAILURE (PARK ASSIST)
The yellow symbol switches on in the case of temporary failure of the parking sensors. If the
problem is still present after cleaning the parking sensor area, contact a Fiat Dealership.
The red symbol switches on in the case of permanent failure of the parking sensors. The failed
operation of the system might be due to the insufficient voltage from the battery or other
failures on the electrical system. Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
FULL BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM FAILURE
The symbols switch on (with the displayed message) in the case of failure of the Full Brake
Control system. Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
SPEED LIMITER FAILURE
The symbol switches on in the case of failure of the Speed Limiter device. Contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible to have the failure eliminated.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL FAILURE
The symbol appears along with a message on the display in case of an Adaptive Cruise
Control system failure. In this case, contact the Fiat Service Network as soon as possible.

Symbol What it means
ELECTRONIC CRUISE CONTROL
The symbol switches on if the electronic Cruise Control is activated.
IMPORTANT
13)If the symbol switches on when driving, stop the engine immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
14)Deteriorated engine oil should be replaced as soon as possible after thesymbol switches on, and never more than 500 km after it
first switches on. Failure to observe the above may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the warranty. Remember that when
this symbol comes on, it does not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if it flashes you do not need to top up the engine oil.
15)If the symbol flashes when driving, contact a Fiat Dealership.
16)The presence of water in the fuel system circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular engine operation. If the
symbol is displayed contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to bleed the system. If the above indications come on immediately after
refuelling, water has probably been poured into the tank: switch the engine off immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
17)Vehicle travel speed should always be adapted to the traffic and weather conditions, and must always comply with traffic regulations. The
engine can be stopped even if the DPF symbol is on: however, repeated interruptions of the regeneration process could cause premature
deterioration of the engine oil. For this reason it is always advisable to wait for the symbol to go off before turning off the engine, following the
instructions above. Do not complete the DPF regeneration process when the vehicle is stopped.

DESCRIPTION
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a
driver assist device which combines the
Cruise Control functions with one for
controlling the distance from the vehicle
ahead.
The device allows to hold the vehicle at
the desired speed without needing to
press the accelerator. It also allows to
hold a given distance from the vehicle
ahead (the distance can be set by the
driver).
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) uses
a radar sensor, located behind the front
bumper fig. 87, to detect the presence
of a vehicle close ahead.The device further enhances driving
comfort provided by the electronic
Cruise Control when on the motorway
or out of town with light traffic.
The use of the device is therefore not
advantageous on busy roads or in
town.
IMPORTANT NOTES
If the sensor does not detect any
vehicle ahead, the device will maintain a
fixed set speed.
If the sensor detects a vehicle ahead,
the device automatically intervenes by
braking (or accelerating) slightly in order
not to exceed the original set speed, so
that the vehicle keeps the preset
distance, seeking to adapt to the speed
of the vehicle ahead.
It is advisable to turn the device off in
the following cases:
driving in fog, heavy rain, snow,
heavy traffic and in complex driving
situations (e.g. on motorways with
roadworks in progress);
driving near a bend (winding roads),
icy, snowy, slippery roads or with steep
climbs and descents;
entering a turn lane or on a slip road;
towing a trailer;
when circumstances do not allow
safe driving at a constant speed.There are two operating modes:
“Adaptive Cruise Control” mode
to hold an appropriate distance
between vehicles (a dedicated message
is shown on the instrument panel
display);
electronic “Cruise Control” mode
to hold the vehicle at a constant
preset speed.
To change the operation mode, use the
button on the steering wheel (see that
described on the following pages).
The "electronic Cruise Control" does
not vary the speed according to the
presence or not of vehicles ahead.
Always adjust the speed according to
traffic conditions.

With the device activated and ready to
work, the display shows a message
indicating the "readiness" of the system
and a dedicated grey symbol (as shown
in fig. 89 ).
IMPORTANT It is dangerous to leave
the device activated when it is not
used. There is a risk of inadvertently
activating it and losing control of the
vehicle due to unexpected excessive
speed.
Deactivation
With the device active, to deactivate it
press and release the button
. The
display will show a dedicated message.
SETTING THE DESIRED
SPEED
The device can only be set with the
speed over 30 km/h (or equivalent
in mph) and under 160 km/h (or
equivalent in mph). When the vehicle
reaches the desired speed, press and
release the button SET + or SET – the
display will show the set speed.
With the system set, the relative symbol
(fig. 89 ) is white.
Then take your foot off the accelerator
pedal.
IMPORTANT Pressing the accelerator
pedal again, the car’s speed may
exceed the set value.
While the accelerator pedal is pressed:
a dedicated message is displayed for
a few seconds;
the device will not be able to control
the distance between the vehicle and
the one ahead. In this case the speed
will be determined only by the position
of the accelerator pedal.
The device will return to normal
operation as soon as the accelerator
pedal is released.The systemcannotbe set:
when pressing the brake pedal;
when the manual parking brake has
been operated;
when the brakes are overheated;
when the gear lever is in R (reverse),
neutral or in 1st (first gear engaged);
when the clutch is pressed;
when the vehicle speed is not within
the settable speed range;
when the engine rpm is above a
maximum threshold or below a
minimum threshold;
when the ESC (or ABS or other
stability control systems) are operating
or have just operated;
during automatic braking by the Full
Brake Control system;
when the Speed Limiter is active;
when the electronic Cruise Control is
active;
in case of failure of the device;
when the engine is off;
in case of obstruction of the radar
sensor (in this case the bumper area
where it is located must be cleaned).
In case of system set, the conditions
described above also cause a
cancellation or deactivation of the
system with times that may vary
according to the conditions.
IMPORTANT With the device set, it is
possible to reach speeds higher than
those set in the system (or equivalent

STARTING AND DRIVING

RECALLING THE SPEED
Once the system has been cancelled
but not deactivated, if a speed was
previously set simply press the RES
(Resume) button and remove your foot
from the accelerator to recall it.
The system will be set to the last stored
speed.
Before returning to the previously set
speed, bring the speed close to that
value, press the RES (Resume) button
and then release it.
IMPORTANT The recall function must
only be used if the road and traffic
conditions so allow. Recalling an
excessively high or low speed for the
current traffic and road conditions could
cause an acceleration or a deceleration
of the vehicle. Failure to comply with
these precautions may cause serious
accidents and fatal injuries.
SETTING THE DISTANCE
BETWEEN VEHICLES
The distance between your vehicle and
the vehicle ahead may be set to 1 bar
(short), 2 bars (medium), 3 bars (long), 4
bars (maximum) (see fig. 90 ).The distances from the vehicle ahead
are proportional to speed. The interval
of time with respect to the vehicle
ahead remains constant and varies
from 1 second (for the short distance
1-bar setting) to 2 seconds (for the
maximum distance 4-bar setting).
The set distance is shown on the
display with a symbol in the “Driver
Assist” area.
The setting is 4 (maximum) the first time
the device is used. After the distance
has been modified by the driver, thenew distance will be stored also after
the system is deactivated and
reactivated.
To decrease the distance
Press and release the
button to
decrease the distance setting.
The distance setting decreases by one
bar (shorter) every time the button is
pressed.
The set speed is held if there are no
vehicles ahead. Once the shortest
distance has been reached, a further
press of the button will set the longest
distance.
If a slower vehicle is detected in the
same lane, it will be shown on the
display in the “Driver Assist” area. The
device will automatically adjust the car’s
speed to maintain the set distance,
independently of the set speed.
The vehicle holds the set distance until:
the vehicle ahead accelerates to a
speed higher than the set speed;
the vehicle ahead leaves the lane or
the detection field of the Adaptive
Cruise Control device sensor;
the distance setting is changed;
the Adaptive Cruise Control device is
deactivated/cancelled.
