IMPORTANT
This Owner Handbook describes all versions of the Fiat 500L; please consider only the information relevant to your

can modify the vehicle model described in this publication at any time, for technical or commercial
purposes. For further information, contact a Fiat Dealership.
READ THIS CAREFULLY
REFUELLING
Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95 in compliance with the European specification
EN228. Do not use petrol containing methanol or ethanol E85. Using these mixtures may cause misfiring and driving issues, as well as
damage fundamental components of the supply system.
Diesel engines: refuel only with diesel fuel motor vehicles conforming to the European specification EN590. The use of other products or
mixtures may damage the engine beyond repair and consequently invalidate the warranty, due to the damage caused.
For further details on the use of the correct fuel see the "Refuelling the vehicle" paragraph in the "Starting and driving" chapter.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Make sure that the handbrake is engaged and place the gear lever in neutral. Fully depress the clutch pedal, without pressing the accelerator,
then turn the ignition key to MAR and wait for the
warning light to switch off (and warning light for diesel versions); turn the
ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine starts.
Versions with Dualogic gearbox: make sure that the handbrake is engaged and that the gear lever is in P (Park) or N (Neutral), fully
depress the brake pedal, then turn the ignition key to AVV.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high temperatures during operation. Do not park the vehicle on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other
flammable material: fire hazard.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is fitted with a system that carries out a continuous diagnosis of the emission-related components in order to help protect the
environment.
ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the vehicle, you decide to add electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually draining the battery), contact a Fiat Dealership.
They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the vehicle's electric system can support the required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing of the vehicle is essential for ensuring that it maintains its performance and its safety features, its environmental friendliness
and low running costs unchanged in time.
USE OF THE OWNER HANDBOOK
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Each time direction instructions (left/right or forwards/backwards) about the vehicle are given, these must be intended as
regarding an occupant in the driver's seat. Special cases not complying with this rule will be specified as appropriate in the text.
The figures in the Owner Handbook are provided by way of example only: this might imply that some details of the image do
not correspond to the actual arrangement of your vehicle. In addition, the Handbook has been conceived considering vehicles
with steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore possible that on vehicles with steering wheel on the right side, the position
or construction of some controls is not exactly mirror-like with respect to the figure.
To identify the chapter with the information needed you can consult the index at the end of this Owner Handbook.
Chapters can be rapidly identified with dedicated graphic tabs, at the side of each odd page. A few pages further there is a key
for getting to know the chapter order and the relevant symbols in the tabs. There is in any case a textual indication of the
current chapter at the side of each even page.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
While reading this Owner Handbook you will find a series of WARNINGS to prevent procedures that could damage your
vehicle.
There are also PRECAUTIONS that must be carefully followed to prevent incorrect use of the components of the vehicle,
which could cause accidents or injuries.
Therefore all WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS must always be carefully followed.
WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS are recalled in the text with the following symbols:
personal safety;
vehicle safety;
environmental protection.
NOTE These symbols, when necessary, are indicated besides the title or at the end of the line and are followed by a number.
That number recalls the corresponding warning at the end of the relevant section.
A plate summarising these symbols can also be found under the bonnet.
VEHICLE CHANGES/ALTERATIONS
IMPORTANT Any change or alteration of the vehicle might seriously affect its safety and road holding, thus causing accidents,
in which the occupants could even be fatally injured.
SYMBOLS
Some vehicle components have coloured labels whose symbols indicate precautions to be observed when using this
component.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
In-depth knowledge of your new vehicle
starts here.
The handbook that you are reading
simply and directly explains how it
is made and how it works.
That’s why we advise you to read it
seated comfortably on board, so that
you can see immediately what is
described here for yourself.

THE FIAT CODE
SYSTEM
This is an electronic engine locking
system which increases protection
against attempted thefts of the vehicle.
It is automatically activated when the
ignition key is removed.
There is an electronic device in each
key which can identify the signal
emitted, when the engine is started,
from an aerial built into the ignition
switch. The signal is the "password",
different every time the vehicle is
started, through which the control unit
recognises the key and enables
starting.
OPERATION
Each time the vehicle is started by
turning the ignition key to MAR, the Fiat
CODE system control unit sends a
recognition code to the Powertrain
Control Module to deactivate the
immobiliser.
The code is sent only if the Fiat CODE
system control unit has acknowledged
the code received from the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to
STOP, the Fiat CODE system
deactivates the functions of the
Powertrain Control Module. If, during
starting, the code is not correctly
recognised, the
warning light
switches on in the instrument panel. In
this case, turn the key to STOP and
then to MAR; if it is still locked, try again
with the other keys that come with the
vehicle. Contact a Fiat Dealership if
you still cannot start the engine.
Activation of warning light while
driving
If the warning light switches on, this
means that the system is running a
self-diagnosis (for example due to
a voltage drop). Should the fault persist,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
THE KEYS
1) 1) 1)
KEY WITHOUT REMOTE
CONTROL

necessary, go to a Fiat Dealership,
taking an ID document and the car
ownership documents.
SAFE LOCK DEVICE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
2)
It prevents the opening of the doors
from inside the passenger
compartment, serving as an obstacle to
break-in attempts (e.g. broken
window). We recommend that you

STOP/START SYSTEM
HANDLING
The dual-zone automatic climate
control manages the Stop/Start system
(engine off and vehicle at a standstill)
in order to guarantee sufficient comfort
inside the vehicle.
IMPORTANT In particularly severe
climate conditions it is recommended to
limit the use of the Stop/Start system
to prevent the compressor from
continuously switching on and off, with
consequent rapid misting of the
windows and accumulation of humidity
with unpleasant smells in the passenger
compartment.
IMPORTANT When the Stop/Start
system is on (engine off and vehicle at a
standstill), the automatic recirculation
management is turned off always taking
air in from outside, to reduce the
probability of the windows misting up
(as the compressor is off).
WARNING
19) It is inadvisable to use internal air
recirculation when the outside temperature
is low, since the windows could mist up
rapidly.
WARNING
5) The climate control system detects the
passenger compartment temperature
using a mean radiant temperature sensor
located in the interior rear view mirror
and protected by a specific cover.
Obstructing the field of view of this sensor
with any object could cause the climate
control system to operate with less than
optimal efficiency.
WARNING
2) The system uses R134a coolant which
does not pollute the environment in the
event of accidental leakage. Under no
circumstances use R12 fluid, which is
incompatible with the components of the
system.
EXTERIOR LIGHTS
The ignition key has to be in the MAR

IMPORTANT When turning the ignition
key quickly, full power steering
functionality can be achieved after a
few seconds.
IMPORTANT During parking
manoeuvres requiring a lot of steering,
the steering may become harder; this is
normal and is due to the intervention
of the system to protect the electric
steering motor from overheating. No
repair intervention is needed in this
case. When the vehicle is used again,
the power steering will work normally
again.

LPG TANK
The car has a (pressurised) tank A fig. 4 9
for collecting LPG in a liquid state. It
is located in the spare wheel
compartment with suitable protection.
LPG tank certification
The LPG tank is certified in accordance
with the regulations in force.
In Italy, the tank has a life of 10 years
starting from the vehicle registration
date. If the vehicle has been registered
in a country other than Italy, the
duration and the testing/inspection
procedures of the LPG tank can vary
depending on the national laws of that
country. In any case, when the time limit
in the individual country has run out,
contact a Fiat Dealership to have the
tank replaced.
SELECTION OF
PETROL/LPG SUPPLY
TYPE
The (petrol/LPG switch) button A fig. 50
allows drivers to select petrol or LPG
operation.
If, during LPG operation, the same runs
out, the vehicle switches to petrol
automatically and all the bars of the
digital gauge on the display switch off,
next to the LPG warning. This condition
persists until the next LPG refuelling.
The engine always starts up on petrol,
with automatic switching to LPG when
the best conditions are achieved
(engine water temperature, minimum
engine rpm limit) for switching to LPG.
SUPPLIES
LPG
Maximum refuelling capacity (reserve
included): 38.4 litres. The figure already
takes into account the 80% tank filling
limit and the residual fluid required
for correct priming and it is the
maximum permitted capacity. In
addition, after different refuelling
processes, this figure could vary due to
differences between the network pump
supply pressures, pumps having
different supply/locking features, tank
not completely run out of fuel.

IMPORTANT In order to avoid
inconsistent information by the LPG
gauge on the instrument panel, it is
recommended to refill with at least 10
litres each time.
WARNING
35) Please note that in some countries
(including Italy) there are legal restrictions
in force for parking/garaging motor
vehicles with gas that has a higher density
than air; LPG comes under this category.
36) Do not switch between the two
operating modes whilst starting the engine.
37) If gas is smelled, switch from methane
operation to petrol operation and
immediately go to a Fiat Dealership to have
the vehicle checked and possible system
faults excluded.
WARNING
16) The vehicle is equipped with a gaseous
LPG injection system designed specifically
for it: it is therefore absolutely forbidden
to alter the configuration of the system or
its components. The use of other
components or materials could cause
malfunctions and lead to a reduction
in safety; therefore, in the case of
problems, contact a Fiat Dealership. When
towing or lifting the car, follow the
instructions in the paragraph on "Towing
the car" to prevent damage to the gas
methane system parts.
17) The system operates at temperatures
ranging between −20 °C and 100 °C.
18) When painting in an oven, the LPG
tank must be removed from the vehicle and
later refitted by a Fiat Dealership. Although
the LPG system has numerous safety
features, it is advisable to proceed
as follows every time the car is not in use
for a long period or moved in an
emergency as a result of a breakdown or
accident: unscrew the fastening devices of
the LPG tank, then remove it. Close the
LPG cock rotating the ring nut C clockwise
(see "Passive/active Safety"). Refit the
cover and retighten the fastening devices.
19) Only use LPG fuel for motor vehicles.
20) It is strictly forbidden to use any
additive in the LPG. Periodically (at least
once every six months) it is advisable to let
the LPG in the tank run out and, at the
first refuelling, to check that it does not
exceed the maximum capacity of 38.4 litres
(reserve included) (with a tolerance of 2
litres excess). If the level is above 38.4 litres
(reserve included) contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately.
21) When switching from petrol to methane
is requested, a metal noise is heard from
the valves which pressurise the circuit. As a
result of the switching logic described
above, the delay between the ticking of the
valve and the switching off of the warning
on the instrument panel is entirely normal.
22) In particular usage conditions, such as
starting and operation at low ambient
temperature or supply of LPG with low
content of propane, the system may
temporarily switch to petrol operation,
without indicating the performed switching
on the instrument panel. In the event of
low LPG levels in the tank or request for
high performance (e.g. overtaking, car fully
laden, steep hills) the system may
automatically switch to petrol operation to
guarantee the engine power requested; the
green warning light on the instrument
panel switches on to indicate this. When
the above conditions are no longer
present, the system automatically restores
LPG operation; the green warning light
switches off. To achieve the above
automatic switching, make sure that there
is enough fuel in the petrol tank.

METHANE SYSTEM
(Natural Power)
38) 39) 40) 41)
23) 24) 25) 26) 27)
INTRODUCTION
The "Natural Power" version features
two fuel systems, one for petrol and
one for natural gas (methane).
METHANE CYLINDERS
The vehicle is equipped with two
cylinders (total capacity about 84 litres)
located under the floor of the vehicle
(fig. 51 and fig. 52) protected by two
special guards filled with methane
at compressed gaseous state (rated
pressure 200 bar at 15°C).
The methane, stored in the cylinders at
high pressure, flows through a
dedicated pipe to reach the pressure
regulator/reduction unit which supplies
the two methane injectors at low
pressure (about 9 bar).
Capacity: about 14 kg. The total
volume of cylinders is about 84 litres.
IMPORTANT In order to avoid
inconsistent information by the
methane gauge on the instrument
panel, it is recommended to refill with at
least 10 litres each time.
Cylinder certification
The cylinders are certified in
accordance with ECE Regulation no.
110, and they must be inspected,
according to the Procedure of the ECE
Regulation no. 110, every 4 years
from the vehicle registration date or in
accordance with specific regulations
in individual countries.
The plates provided by the Dealership
with the on board documentation
contain the date for the first inspection
of the cylinders. Methane refuelling
stations are not authorised to refill the
cylinders when the inspection date has
expired.
IMPORTANT If the vehicle has been
registered in a country other than Italy,
the certification data, identification
and inspection procedures for
the methane cylinders should conform
to the legislation in that country. In
any case, remember that the life of the
cylinders is 20 years from the
production date as set out in ECE
Regulation no. 110.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
SELECTION OF
PETROL/METHANE
SUPPLY TYPE
The engine normally runs on methane
except during starting, when it runs
on petrol. Switching to methane is
automatic.
If you want to run on petrol, press
button A fig. 53: this operation is
allowed both with car at a standstill and
engine running and also while driving.
The switching on of the LED located on
the button and of the green warning
light
on the instrument panel
indicates that the switching request has
taken place correctly.
To guarantee switching in full safety, the
actual change to the chosen fuel
system takes place depending on the
car usage conditions; it may not
therefore be immediate.
In addition, when starting at outside
temperatures below approximately
−10°C, the switching times from petrol
to methane increase to allow the
pressure regulator/reduction unit to
heat up.
WARNING
38) The car is equipped with a high-
pressure methane system designed to
operate at 200 rated bar. It is dangerous to
force the system to run at higher
pressures. When towing or lifting the car,
follow the instructions in the main
handbook under the paragraph on "Towing
the car" to prevent damage to the
methane system parts. If there is a
problem with the methane system, only
contact a Fiat Dealership. Do not modify
configuration or components of the
methane system; they have been designed
exclusively for this car. The use of other
components or materials could cause
malfunctions and reduce safety.
39) In the case of painting in an oven, the
cylinders should be removed from the
vehicle and refitted later by a Fiat
Dealership. Although the methane system
has numerous safety features, it is
advisable to close the manual cocks for the
cylinders every time the vehicle is not in
use for a long period, transported on other
transport means or moved in an
emergency as a result of a breakdown or
accident.
40) Do not switch between the two
operating modes whilst starting the engine.
41) If gas is smelled, switch from methane
operation to petrol operation and
immediately go to a Fiat Dealership to have
the vehicle checked and possible system
faults excluded.
WARNING
23) If, during methane operation, the same
runs out, the vehicle switches to petrol
automatically and all the bars of the digital
gauge on the display switch off, next to
the CNG warning. This displaying remains
until the next methane refuelling.
24) Regardless of the last fuel system
used, at the following engine starting, after
the initial petrol stage, the system will
automatically switch to methane.
25) When switching from petrol to methane
is requested and when starting the engine,
a metal noise is heard from the valves
which pressurise the circuit. As a result of
the switching logic described above, the
delay between the ticking of the valve and
the switching off of the green warning
light
is entirely normal.
53
F0Y0249C
37
26) In particular usage conditions, such as
starting and operation at low ambient
temperature, the system may switch
temporarily to petrol operation, without
indicating the performed switching. In the
event of low methane levels in the tank
or request for high performance (e.g.
overtaking, car fully laden, steep hills) the
system may automatically switch to petrol
operation to guarantee the engine power
requested; the green warning light
switches on to indicate this. When the
above conditions are no longer present,
the system automatically restores methane
operation and the green warning light
switches off. To get the above
automatic switching, make sure that there
is enough fuel in the petrol tank.
27) The plates (provided with the vehicle
documents) show the date when the
first cylinder inspection/test is due.
Methane refuelling station operators are
not authorised to refill the cylinders when
the inspection date has expired.

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
IMPORTANT The warning light switches on together with a dedicated message and/or acoustic signal when applicable. These
indications are indicative and precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or alternative to the
information contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. Always refer to the
information in this chapter in the event of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT The failure indicators appearing on the display are divided into two categories: very serious and less serious faults.
Serious faults are indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious faults are indicated by a warning
"cycle" with a shorter duration. The display cycle of both categories can be interrupted. The instrument panel warning light will
stay on until the cause of the failure is eliminated.
WARNING LIGHTS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL
Red warning lights
Warning light What it means
LOW BRAKE FLUID/HANDBRAKE ENGAGED
Low brake fluid level
The warning light switches on when the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level, possibly
due to a leak in the circuit. On some versions, a message is displayed along with a symbol. Restore the
brake fluid level, then check that the warning light has switched off. If the warning light stays on, contact a
Fiat Dealership.
Handbrake engaged
The warning light (or symbol on the display) switches on when the handbrake is engaged. If the vehicle is
moving the buzzer will also sound. Release the handbrake, then check that the warning light has switched
off. If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT If the warning light comes on when the vehicle is in motion, check that the handbrake is not
on.
45
Warning light What it means
EBD FAILURE
The simultaneous switching on of the
(red) and (amber) warning lights and ESC with the engine
on indicates either a fault of the EBD system or that the system is not available. In this case, the rear
wheels may suddenly lock and the vehicle may swerve when braking sharply. On certain versions a
dedicated message is displayed.
Drive very carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have the system inspected immediately.
LOW BATTERY CHARGE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If the warning light (or, on some versions, a message and a symbol on the display) remains on constantly or
flashing, contact a Fiat Dealership.
DOORS/BONNET/LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT OPEN
The warning light switches on (on some versions together with some messages and symbols in the display)
when one or more doors, the bonnet or the tailgate are not properly closed.
An acoustic signal is activated with the doors open and the vehicle moving.
46
KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
Warning light What it means
AIRBAG FAILURE
The warning light switches on constantly (on some versions, together with a message and a symbol on the
display) to indicate an airbag system fault.
42) 43)
SEAT BELTS NOT FASTENED
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on constantly with the vehicle stationary and the driver's side or passenger side
seat belt (when the passenger is present) not fastened. The warning light will flash and a buzzer will sound
if the vehicle is in motion and the front seat belts are not correctly fastened.
In this case, fasten the seat belt.
For permanent deactivation of the SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system buzzer, contact a Fiat Dealership. The
system can be reactivated at any time through the Setup Menu.
WARNING
42) If the warning light does not switch on when the ignition key is moved to MAR or if it stays on when driving (together with the
message on the display), there might be a fault in the restraint systems; in this case, the airbags or pretensioners may not deploy in the event
of an accident or, in a lower number of cases, they could deploy erroneously. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to
have the system checked.
43) Failure of the
warning light is signalled by the
warning light flashing. In this case, any faults with the airbag system may not be
signalled. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked.
47
Warning light What it means
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
The warning light switches on (on some versions together with a message and a symbol on the display)
when the engine is overheated. The display shows the dedicated message.
When driving normally: stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and check that the water level in the
reservoir is not below the MIN mark. If it is, wait for the engine to cool down, then slowly and carefully open
the cap, top up with coolant and check that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir.
Also check visually for any fluid leaks. If, when restarting, the warning light switches on (or the symbol is
displayed) again, contact a Fiat Dealership.
If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions (e.g. in high-performance driving): slow down and,
if the warning light stays on, stop the vehicle. Stop for 2 or 3 minutes with the engine running and slightly
accelerated to promote a better coolant circulation. Then stop the engine. Check that the coolant level is
correct as described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to keep the engine on and slightly accelerated for a
few minutes before switching it off.
48
KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
Warning light What it means
CONTINUOUSLY ON: LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
The warning light turns on constantly, on some versions along with a message and a symbol on the
display, when the system detects that engine oil pressure is insufficient.
28)
FLASHING: EXHAUSTED ENGINE OIL (only Diesel versions with DPF)
The warning light switches on and flashes, on some versions with the displaying of a message. Depending
on the versions, the warning light will continue to flash in cycles for 1 minute every two hours or for 3
minute cycles with the warning light off for 5 seconds until the oil is changed.
After the first indication, at each engine start up the warning light will continue flashing as described above
until the oil is changed. On some versions, the display shows a dedicated message.
If the warning light flashes, this does not mean that there is a fault, but simply informs that it is now
necessary to change the oil as a result of regular use of the vehicle.
Engine oil degradation is accelerated by a predominant town use of the vehicle, which makes DPF
regeneration process more frequent, and also by use of the vehicle for short trips, preventing the engine to
reach the operating temperature, repeated interruptions of the regeneration process reported by the
switching on of the
warning light. 29)
WARNING
28) If the warning light comes on when the vehicle is travelling, stop the engine immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
29) If the warning light switches on, the degraded engine oil must be changed as soon as possible, and never more than 500 km from the
first time that the warning light has switched on. Failure to observe the above indications may result in severe damage to the engine and
invalidate the warranty. The activation of this warning light is not related to the amount of oil in the engine. Therefore, never top up with oil
when the warning light starts flashing.
49
Warning light What it means
“DUALDRIVE” ELECTRIC POWER STEERING FAILURE
During the engine start: when the key is turned to MAR, the warning light switches on, but it should
switch off after a few seconds. If the warning light stays on, turn the ignition key to STOP and start the
engine again. If the warning light stays on (on some versions, together with a message and a symbol on
the display), the effort to operate the steering wheel could be increased; steering is, however, possible. In
this case, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
While driving: if the warning light switches on whilst driving (on some versions, together with a message
and a symbol on the display) you may not have steering assistance from the system. Although it will still be
possible to steer the vehicle, the effort needed to operate the steering wheel could be increased: contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
IMPORTANT In some circumstances, factors independent of the electric power steering could cause the
warning light on the instrument panel to switch on. In this case, stop the vehicle immediately (should it be
in motion), stop the engine for about 20 seconds and then restart the engine. If the warning light (or, on
some versions, a message and a symbol on the display) remains on constantly, contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT After the battery is disconnected, the steering must be initialised. The warning light switches
on to indicate this. To carry out this procedure turn the steering wheel all the way from one end to the other
or drive in a straight line for about a hundred metres.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
Amber warning lights
Warning light What it means
iTPMS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
iTPMS failure/iTPMS temporarily deactivated
The warning light flashes for about 75 seconds and then stays on constantly (together with a message on
the display) to indicate that the system is temporarily deactivated or faulty. The system goes back to normal
operation when the operating conditions allow it. If this is not the case, carry out the "Reset" procedure
after restoring the normal operating conditions.
If the malfunction warning persists, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
Tyre pressure low
The warning light switches on continuously to indicate that the tyre pressure is lower than the
recommended value and/or that slow pressure loss is occurring. In these cases, optimal tyre duration and
fuel consumption may not be guaranteed. It is advisable to restore the correct pressure value (see the
"Wheels" paragraph in the "Technical specifications" section).
Once the normal operating conditions of the vehicle are restored, carry out the "Reset" procedure.
IMPORTANT Do not continue driving with one or more flat tyres as handling may be compromised. Stop
the vehicle, avoiding sharp braking and steering.
City Brake Control - "Collision Mitigation" SYSTEM DEACTIVATED
(for versions/markets, where provided)

driving.
Hill Holder failure: the warning light switches on, for some versions together with the
symbol and a
message in the display, in the event of a Hill Holder system failure. In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership.
Traction Plus failure: in the case of Traction Plus system failure, the ESC warning light switches on
constantly.
FUEL RESERVE - LIMITED RANGE
This warning light comes on when about 6 to 8 litres of fuel are left in the tank. When the remaining range
is lower than approx. 50 km (or equivalent value in miles), on some versions, the display will show a
dedicated message.
IMPORTANT The warning light will flash to indicate a system failure. If this is the case, go to a Fiat
Dealership to have the system checked.
53
Warning light What it means
INJECTION/EOBD SYSTEM FAILURE
If the warning light remains on or switches on whilst driving (on some versions together with the display of a
message and a symbol), the injection system is not working properly.
Warning light on constantly: signals a malfunction in the supply/ignition system that could cause high
exhaust emissions, a possible loss of performance, poor driveability and high consumption. Under these
conditions, the vehicle can continue travelling at moderate speed but without demanding excessive effort
from the engine or high speed. Prolonged use of the vehicle with the warning light on constantly may cause
damage: contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
The warning light switches off if the malfunction disappears, but is still stored by the system.
Warning light on and flashing (for petrol engines only): it reports a possible damage to the catalytic
converter. Release the accelerator pedal to lower the speed of the engine until the warning light stops
flashing. Continue the journey at moderate speed, trying to avoid driving conditions that may cause further
flashing and contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
30)
WARNING
30) Go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible if the warning light either does not light up when the key is turned to MAR or lights up or
flashes (along with a message and a symbol on the display on some versions). The exhaust emission levels may be checked by the traffic
control authorities using the appropriate equipment. Always comply with the traffic regulations in force in the country where you are driving.
54
KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
Warning light What it means
GLOW PLUG PREHEATING FAILURE (Diesel versions)
The warning light will flash (on some versions, together with a message and a symbol on the display) to
indicate a fault in the plug preheating system.
In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
LPG FUEL RESERVE (LPG versions)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on when the residual quantity of LPG in the cylinder goes below 1/5 of the
capacity. The display will also show a dedicated message.
METHANE RESERVE (Natural Power versions)
The warning light switches on when the residual quantity of methane in the cylinder goes below 1/5 of the
capacity. The display will also show a dedicated message.
55
Warning light What it means
DPF (PARTICULATE FILTER) CLEANING IN PROGRESS (Diesel versions with DPF only)
The warning light (on some versions, together with a message and a symbol on the display) switches on
constantly to notify the driver that the DPF system needs to eliminate captured pollutants (particulate)
through the regeneration process.
The warning light does not come on during every DPF regeneration, but only when driving conditions
require that the driver is notified.
To switch the warning light off, the car must be kept moving until the regeneration process is completed.
As an average, the process lasts fifteen minutes. The best conditions to complete the regeneration process
are reached driving the car at about 60 km/h with engine speed over 2000 rpm.
When this warning light switches on, it does not indicate a car failure and thus it should not be taken to a
workshop. On some versions, together with the warning light switching on, the display shows a dedicated
message.
31)
WARNING
31) 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 warning light is on: however, repeated interruptions of the regeneration process could cause premature
degradation of the engine oil. For this reason, it is always advisable to wait for the warning light to go off before turning the engine off,
following the instructions appearing above. It is not advisable to complete DPF regeneration with the vehicle stationary.

SAFETY
ACTIVE SAFETY
SYSTEMS
ABS (Anti-lock Braking
System)
44) 45) 46) 47) 48) 49) 50)
This system, which is an integral part of
the braking system, prevents one or
more wheels from locking and slipping
in all road surface conditions,
irrespective of the intensity of the
braking action, ensuring that the vehicle
can be controlled even during
emergency braking and optimising
stopping distances.
The ABS also includes the following
systems: EBD (Electronic Braking Force
Distribution), MSR (Motor
Schleppmoment Regelung) and HBA
(Hydraulic Brake Assist).
51) 52) 53)
IMPORTANT To obtain the maximum
efficiency of the braking system, a
bedding-in period of about 500 km is
needed: during this period it is better to
avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged
braking.
System intervention
The driver can feel that the ABS system
has come into action because the
brake pedal pulsates slightly and the
system gets noisier: this is entirely
normal with the system operating.
ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) SYSTEM
54) 55) 56) 57) 58) 59)
The ESC system improves the
directional control and stability of the
vehicle in various driving conditions,
correcting understeer and oversteer,
distributing the brake force on the
appropriate wheels.
System intervention
The intervention of the system is
indicated by the flashing of the ESC
warning light on the instrument panel,
to inform the driver that the vehicle is in
critical stability and grip conditions.
System activation
The ESC system switches on
automatically when the engine is
started and cannot be switched off.
HH (Hill Holder) SYSTEM
60) 61)
This system is an integral part of the
ESC system and facilitates starting on
slopes.
The device is automatically switched on
in the following cases:
uphill: vehicle stationary on a road
with a gradient higher than 5%, engine
running, brake pressed and
transmission in neutral or gear other
than reverse engaged;
downhill: vehicle stationary on a road
with a gradient higher than 5%, engine
running, brake pressed and reverse
gear engaged.
ASR (AntiSlip
Regulation) SYSTEM
The ASR system automatically operates
in the event of one or both drive
wheels slipping, loss of grip on wet
roads (aquaplaning) and acceleration
on slippery, snowy or icy roads, etc.
65
DST (Dynamic Steering
Torque or steering
corrector) system
62)
The DST (steering corrector) function
uses the integration of the ESC system
with the electric power steering to
increase the safety level of the whole
vehicle. In critical situations
(understeering, oversteering, braking
with different grip conditions), through
the DST function the ESC system
controls the steering to implement an
additional torque contribution on the
steering wheel, to suggest the most
correct manoeuvre to the driver.
ERM (Electronic Rollover
Mitigation) SYSTEM
63)
The system monitors the tendency of
the wheels to rise from the ground if the
driver performs extreme manoeuvres
like quick steering to avoid an obstacle,
especially in poor road conditions.
If these conditions occur, the system
intervenes on the brakes and engine
power to reduce the possibility that the
wheels are raised from the ground. It
is not possible to avoid tendency to roll
over if the phenomenon is due to
reasons such as driving on high side
gradients, collision with objects or other
vehicles.
WARNING
44) When the ABS intervenes and you feel
the brake pedal pulsating, do not reduce
the pressure, but hold it down firmly and
confidently; in doing so you will brake
in the shortest distance possible,
depending on the current road conditions.
45) To obtain the maximum efficiency of
the braking system, a bedding-in period of
about 500 km is needed: during this period
it is better to avoid sharp, repeated and
prolonged braking.
46) If the ABS intervenes, this indicates
that the traction of the tyres on the road is
about to reach its limit. You must slow
down to a speed compatible with the
available grip.
47) The ABS cannot alter the natural laws
of physics, and cannot increase grip which
depends on the condition of the road.
48) The ABS cannot prevent accidents,
including those due to excessive speed on
corners, driving on low-grip surfaces or
aquaplaning.
49) The capability of the ABS must never
be tested irresponsibly and dangerously, in
such a way as to compromise personal
safety and the safety of others.
50) For the correct operation of the ABS,
the tyres must of necessity be the same
make and type on all wheels, in perfect
condition and, above all, of the prescribed
type and dimensions.
51) The HBA system cannot increase tyre
grip on the road over the limits imposed by
laws of physics: always drive carefully
according to the conditions of the road
surface.
52) The HBA system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to excessive
speed on corners, driving on low-grip
surfaces or aquaplaning.
53) The HBA system is an aid for the driver,
who must always pay full attention while
driving. The responsibility always rests with
the driver. The capability of the HBA
system must never be tested irresponsibly
and dangerously, in such a way as to
compromise the safety of the driver, the
other occupants of the car or any other
road user.

SAFETY
Engagement/disengagement of the
ASR system
The system comes on automatically
whenever the engine is started. Whilst
driving, the ASR can be switched off
and subsequently switched on again by
pressing the ASR OFF button fig. 60.
54) The ESC system cannot alter the
natural laws of physics, and cannot
increase grip which depends on the
condition of the road.
55) The ESC system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to excessive
speed on corners, driving on low-grip
surfaces or aquaplaning.
56) The capability of the ESC system must
never be tested irresponsibly and
dangerously, in such a way as to
compromise the safety of the driver, the
other occupants of the car or any other
road user.
57) For the correct operation of the ESC
and ASR systems it is extremely important
that the tyres are the same brand and
the same type on all the wheels, in perfect
condition and, above all, the
recommended type and size.
58) The performance of the ESC and ASR
systems must not encourage the driver
to take unnecessary risks. Your driving style
must always be suited to the road
conditions, visibility and traffic. The driver
is, in any case, responsible for safe driving.
59) The ESC functions even when the
space-saver wheel is being used. Always
remember that the space-saver wheel,
being smaller than the original wheel,
provides less grip.
60) The Hill Holder system is not a parking
brake; therefore, never leave the car
without having engaged the handbrake,
turned the engine off and engaged first
gear, so that the vehicle is parked in safe
conditions (for further information read the
"Parking" paragraph in the "Starting and
driving" chapter).
61) There may be situations on small
gradients (less than 5%), with car laden, in
which the Hill Holder system may not
activate, causing a slight reversing motion
and increasing the risk of collision with
another vehicle or object. The driver is, in
any case, responsible for safe driving.
62) DST is an aid for driving and does not
relieve the driver of responsibility while
driving the vehicle.
63) The performance of a vehicle with ERM
must never be tested in imprudent or
dangerous ways, with the possibility of
putting the safety of the driver or other
people at risk.
DRIVING
ASSISTANCE
SYSTEMS
The vehicle can be equipped with the
following active safety devices:
Traction Plus;
City Brake Control - "Collision
Mitigation";
iTPMS.
For the operation of the systems, see
the following pages.
TRACTION PLUS SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The system works as a driving aid,
useful for setting off in poor grip
conditions (snow, ice, mud, etc.), which
allows the drive force to be distributed
optimally on the front axle.
The system acts by braking the wheels
with poor grip (or those slipping more
than the others), transferring the drive
force to those which have greater
grip on the ground.
The activation of the Traction Plus
system generates the differential locking
effect on the front axle through the
braking system, to optimise traction on
irregular terrain.
When the engine is started the system
is deactivated.
67
System activation: press the T+ fig.
61 button: the LED on the button
switches on and the display shows a
dedicated message. The system
operates at speeds below 30 km/h:
when this speed is exceeded, it
deactivates automatically (the LED on
the button stays on) and reactivates as
soon as the speed drops below
30 km/h.
System deactivation: to deactivate
the system, once activated, press
the T+ button again.
CITY BRAKE CONTROL -
"Collision Mitigation"
SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
64) 65) 66) 67) 68)
36) 37) 38) 39) 40) 41) 42) 43)
This is a driving assistance system,
which includes a laser sensor, located
in the upper part of the windscreen
fig. 62, that can detect the presence of
nearby vehicles in the front.
In the event of an imminent collision the
system intervenes by automatically
braking the vehicle to prevent the crash
or reduce its effects.
The system only works if:
the ignition key is turned to MAR;
the vehicle speed is between 5
and 30 km/h;
a forward gear is engaged;
the front seat belts are fastened.
Anyway, the system can be deactivated
(then reactivated) through the Setup
Menu on the display.
The system activates if there is risk of
imminent collision and the driver does
not press the brake pedal promptly.
If the system detects that the vehicle
ahead could be hit, it may prepare the
vehicle to a possible emergency
braking.
If the driver does not carry out any
action to prevent the collision, the
system may automatically slow down
the vehicle, in order to prepare it to
a possible impact.
Versions with Start&Stop system:at
the end of the automatic braking, the
Stop/Start system will activate.
Versions equipped with manual
gearbox: at the end of the automatic
braking the engine may stall and turn
off, unless the clutch pedal is pressed.
Versions equipped with Dualogic
automatic transmission (for
versions/markets, where provided): at
the end of braking the last gear stored
remains engaged.
IMPORTANT After the vehicle is
stopped, the brake calipers may be
locked for about 2 seconds for safety
reasons. Make sure you press the
brake pedal if the vehicle moves slightly
forwards.

SAFETY
Driving in special conditions
In certain driving conditions, such as,
for example: driving around a bend (see
fig. 63) / small vehicles and/or vehicles
not aligned with the driving lane (see fig.
64) / lane change by other vehicles
(see fig. 65) the system operation might
be unexpected or delayed. Pay the
utmost attention, keeping control of the
vehicle to drive in complete safety.
iTPMS (indirect Tyre
Pressure Monitoring
System)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
44) 45) 46) 47) 48) 49)
The iTPMS can monitor the tyre inflation
status through the wheel speed
sensors. The system warns the driver if
one or more tyres are flat by switching
on the warning light
on the
instrument panel and a warning
message on the display, along with an
acoustic signal.
If one tyre only is flat, the system can
indicate its position: it is in any case
recommended to check the pressure
on all four tyres.
This indication is displayed also when
turning the engine off and on again until
the "Reset" procedure is carried out.
"Reset" procedure
The iTPMS needs an initial "self-
learning" phase (with length depending
on the driving style and road conditions:
optimal conditions being driven on a
straight road at 80 km/h for at least 20
minutes) which starts when the "Reset"
procedure is carried out.
The "Reset" procedure must be carried
out:
each time tyre pressure is modified;
when even only one tyre is changed;
when tyres are rotated/inverted;
when the space-saver wheel is fitted.
Before carrying out the "Reset"
procedure, inflate the tyres to the rated
pressure values specified in the inflation
pressure table (see the "Wheels"
paragraph in the "Technical
specifications" chapter).
If the "Reset" procedure is not carried
out, in all above cases, the
warning
light may give false indications on
one or more tyres.
To carry out the "Reset" procedure,
with the vehicle stopped and the
ignition device at MAR, use the Setup
Menu as follows:
briefly press the
button fig. 65a:
the display will show "Reset";
press the
button or the
button to select ("Yes" or "No");
63
F0Y0320C

69
briefly press the button: the
display will show "Confirm";
press the
button or the
button to select ("Yes" to "Reset"
or "No" to exit the screen);
hold the
button down again to go
back to the standard screen or to the
main menu according to where you are
in the menu.
Once the "Reset" procedure has been
performed, the display shows a
message indicating that the "self-
learning" procedure has started.
Working conditions
The system is active for speeds above
15 km/h. In a few situations such as
sporty driving, particular conditions of
the road surface (e.g. icy, snowy,
unsurfaced roads) the signalling may be
delayed, or be partial in the detection
if more tyres are flat simultaneously.
Under special conditions (e.g. vehicle
loaded asymmetrically on one side,
towing a trailer, damaged or worn tyre,
fitting the space-saver wheel, use of the
"Fix&Go Automatic" kit, fitting snow
chains, fitting different tyres on the
axles) the system may give false
indications or be temporarily
deactivated.
If the system is temporarily deactivated
the
warning light flashes for about
75 seconds and then is continuously
on; at the same time, the display shows
a dedicated message. This indication
is displayed also after the engine has
been switched off and then on again if
the correct operating conditions are not
restored.
WARNING
64) The system is an aid for the driver, who
must always pay full attention while
driving. The responsibility always rests with
the driver, who must take into account
the traffic conditions in order to drive
in complete safety. The driver must always
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle
in front.
65) If the driver depresses the brake pedal
fully or carries out a fast steering during
system operation, the automatic braking
function may stop (e.g. to allow a possible
manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle).
66) The laser beam is not visible at the
naked eye. Do not look directly, or with
optical instruments (e.g. lenses), at the
laser beam from a distance lower than 10
cm: this may cause damage to the sight.
The laser beam is also present when
the key is at MAR but its operation is off,
not available or manually deactivated
with the display Setup Menu.
67) The system intervenes on vehicles
travelling in the same lane. Small sized
vehicles (e.g. bicycles or motorbikes)
or people, animals and things (e.g.
pushchairs) and more in general all those
obstacles with a low reflection of the light
emitted by the laser (e.g. vehicles soiled
with mud) are not taken into consideration.
68) If the car must be placed on a roller
bench (at a speed within 5 and 30 km/h)
for maintenance interventions or if it is
washed in an automatic roller washing
tunnel with an obstacle in the front part
(e.g. another car, a wall or another
obstacle), the system may detect its
presence and activate. In this case the
system must be deactivated through the
display Setup Menu.
WARNING
36) The laser sensor may have limited or
absent operation due to weather
conditions such as: heavy rain, hail, thick
fog, heavy snow, formation of ice layers on
the windscreen.
70
SAFETY
65
F0Y0777C
a
37) Sensor operation may also be
compromised by the presence of dust,
condensation, dirt or ice on the
windscreen, by traffic conditions (e.g.
vehicles that are driving not aligned with
yours, vehicles driving in a transverse
or opposite way on the same lane, bend
with a small radius of curvature), by road
surface conditions and by driving
conditions (e.g. off-road driving). Make sure
the windscreen is always clean. Use
specific detergents and clean cloths to
avoid scratching the windscreen. The
sensor operation may also be limited or
absent in some driving, traffic and road
surface conditions.
38) Projecting loads on the roof of the
vehicle may interfere with the correct
operation of the sensor. Before starting
make sure the load is correctly positioned,
in order not to cover the sensor operating
range.
39) If the windscreen must be replaced
due to scratches, chipping or breakage,
contact exclusively a Fiat Dealership.
Do not replace the windscreen on your
own, risk of malfunction! It is advisable to
replace the windscreen if it is damaged
in the area of the laser sensor.
40) Do not tamper with nor operate on the
laser sensor. Do not close the openings
in the aesthetic cover located under the
interior rear view mirror. In the event of
a sensor failure, contact a Fiat Dealership.
41) If you are driving on roads close to
trees with protruding branches it is
advisable to deactivate the system to
prevent the branches at the height of the
bonnet or the windscreen from interfering
with the system.
42) Do not cover the operating range of the
sensor with stickers or other objects. Also
pay attention to other objects on the
bonnet (e.g. a layer of snow) and make
sure they do not interfere with the light
emitted by the laser.
43) If a trailer or a vehicle is towed, the
system must be deactivated with the
display Setup Menu.
44) If the system signals a pressure
decrease on a specific tyre, it is
recommended to check the pressure on all
four tyres.
45) iTPMS does not relieve the driver from
the obligation to check the tyre pressure
every month; it is not to be considered
a system to replace maintenance or a
safety system.
46) The iTPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre
pressure drops (for example when a tyre
bursts). In this case, stop the vehicle,
braking with caution and avoiding abrupt
steering.
47) The iTPMS only warns that the tyre
pressure is low: it is not able to inflate
them.
48) Insufficient tyre inflation increases fuel
consumption, reduces the tread duration
and may affect the capacity to drive safely.
49) Tyre pressure must be checked with
tyres cold. Should it become necessary for
whatever reason to check pressure with
warm tyres, do not reduce pressure even
though it is higher than the prescribed
value, but repeat the check when tyres are
cold.
OCCUPANT
PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
The most important safety equipment
of the vehicle comprise the following
protection systems:
seat belts;
SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;
head restraints;
child restraint systems;
front airbags and side bags.
Read the information given the
following pages with the utmost care. It
is of fundamental importance that the
protection systems are used in the
correct way to guarantee the maximum
possible safety level for the driver and
the passengers.
For the description of the head restraint
adjustment see paragraph "Head
restraints" in chapter "Knowing your
vehicle".
71
SEAT BELTS
69) 70)
USING THE SEAT BELTS
The driver is responsible for respecting,
and ensuring that all the other
occupants of the vehicle also respect,
the local laws in force in relation to
the use of the seat belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off.
The seat belt should be worn keeping
the torso straight and rested against
the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the
tongue A fig. 66 and insert it into the
buckle B, until it clicks into place.
On removal, if the belt jams, let it rewind
for a short stretch, then pull it out
again without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press button
C and guide the seat belt with your
hand while it is rewinding, to prevent it
from twisting.
The retractor may lock when the vehicle
is parked on a steep slope: this is
perfectly normal. Furthermore, the
retractor mechanism locks the belt if it
is pulled sharply or in the event of
sudden braking, collisions or
high-speed bends.
The rear seat is fitted with inertia seat
belts with three anchor points and a
retractor. Wear the rear seat belts
as shown in fig. 67.
IMPORTANT When returning the rear
seat from the tilted position to the
normal operating position, take care to
refit the seat belt correctly, in order to
guarantee prompt availability every
time.
500L LIVING 7-seater versions
The third row rear seats have inertia
seat belts with three anchor points and
retractor. Wear the rear seat belts as
shown in fig. 68.
PRO versions
The vehicle is equipped with rear seat
approved for only two occupants (see
fig. 69) with three point seat belts
and retractor.

SAFETY
WARNING
69) Never press button C fig. 66 when
travelling.
70) Remember that in the event of a violent
impact the rear seat passengers not
wearing seat belts are exposed to a very
serious risk and also represent a serious
danger for the front seat occupants.
SBR (Seat Belt
Reminder) SYSTEM
This system consists of a device which,
in conjunction with the
warning
light coming on in the instrument panel
fig. 70 (initially in fixed mode with
continuous acoustic signal and then in
flashing mode with intermittent acoustic
signal), warns the driver and front
passenger that their seat belts have not
been fastened.
To deactivate the acoustic warning
permanently go to a Fiat Dealership.
The acoustic warning can be
reactivated at any time through the
display Setup Menu.
DRIVER
If the driver is the only occupant and
the seat belt is not fastened, when 20
km/h is exceeded or when travelling
at a speed from 10 to 20 km/h for
longer than 5 seconds, an acoustic
signal sequence will be started (front
seats) consisting of a tone for 6
seconds followed by a 90 second
beep. The
warning light will flash.
The warning light will stay on constantly
at the end of the cycle until the engine
is stopped. The acoustic signal will
be interrupted immediately when the
driver's seat belt is fastened and the
warning light will switch off.
The reminder cycle (acoustic and visual)
will be repeated as described above if
the seat belt is unfastened while
travelling.
PASSENGER
A similar solution applies for the
passenger, but the indication is
interrupted when the passenger leaves
the car as well.
If both the front seat belts are

PRETENSIONERS
71) 72) 73) 74) 50)
The vehicle is equipped with front seat
belt pretensioners, which draw back
the seat belts by several centimetres in
the event of a strong frontal impact.
This guarantees the perfect adherence
of the seat belts to the occupant's
bodies before the retention action
begins.
It is evident that the pretensioners have
been activated when the belt withdraws
toward the retractor.
This vehicle is also equipped with a
second pretensioner (fitted in the kick
plate area). Its activation is signalled by
the shortening of the metal cable.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the
pretensioner which is not harmful and
does not indicate any fire hazard.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication: any
changes to its original conditions will
invalidate its efficiency.
If, due to unusual natural events (floods,
sea storms, etc.), the device has been
affected by water and/or mud, contact
a Fiat Dealership to have it replaced.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action of
the pretensioner, wear the seat belt
tight to the torso and pelvis.
LOAD LIMITERS
To increase safety in the event of an
accident, the front seat belt retractors
contain a load limiter which controls the
force acting on the chest and
shoulders during the belt restraining
action in the event of a head-on
collision.
GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USING THE SEAT BELTS
Respect and ensure that all the other
occupants of the vehicle comply with
the local laws in force regarding the use
of seat belts. Always fasten the seat
belts before setting off.
Seat belts must also be worn by
pregnant women: the risk of injury in
the event of an accident is reduced for
them and the unborn child if they are
wearing a seat belt.
Pregnant women must position the
lower part of the belt very low down so
that it passes over the pelvis and under
the abdomen fig. 71. While pregnancy
increases, the driver must adjust both
seat and steering wheel to have full
control over the vehicle (pedals and
steering wheel should be easily
accessed). The maximum clearance
should be kept between the abdomen
and the steering wheel.
The seat belt must not be twisted. The
upper part must pass over the shoulder
and cross the chest diagonally fig. 72.
The lower part must adhere to the
pelvis, not to the abdomen of the
occupant. Never use devices (clips,
clamps, etc.) that hold the seat belt
away from your body.
71
F0Y0700C
74
SAFETY
Each seat belt must be used by only
one person. Never travel with a child
sitting on the passenger's lap and
a single belt to protect them both fig.
73. In general, do not place any objects
between the person and the belt.
SEAT BELT
MAINTENANCE
For keeping the seat belts in efficient
conditions, observe the following:
always use the seat belt well
stretched and never twisted; make sure
that it is free to run without
obstructions;
check seat belt operation as follows:
attach the seat belt and pull it hard;
replace the belt after an accident of a
certain severity even if it does not
appear to be damaged. Always replace
the seat belt if the pretensioners were
deployed;
to clean the seat belts, wash by hand
with water and neutral soap, rinse and
leave to dry in the shade. Never use
strong detergents, bleach, paints or any
other chemical substance which could
damage the belt fibres;
prevent the retractors from getting
wet: their correct operation is only
guaranteed if water does not get inside;
replace the seat belt when it shows
wear or cuts.
WARNING
71) The pretensioner may be used only
once. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have it
replaced after it has been deployed.
72) Removing or otherwise tampering with
seat belt and pretensioner components
is strictly prohibited. Any intervention
on these components must be performed
by qualified and authorised technicians.
Always contact a Fiat Dealership.
73) For maximum safety, keep the back of
your seat upright, lean back into it and
make sure the seat belt fits closely across
your torso and pelvis. Always fasten the
seat belts for both the front and rear seats!
Travelling without wearing seat belts will
increase the risk of serious injury and even
death in the event of an accident.
74) If the belt has been subjected to high
levels of stress, for example after an
accident, it should be changed completely
together with the attachments, attachment
fixing screws and the pretensioner. In
fact, even if the belt has no visible defects,
it may have lost its resilience.
WARNING
50) Operations which lead to impacts,
vibrations or localised heating (over 100°C
for a maximum of six hours) in the area
around the pretensioner may damage or
deploy it. Contact a Fiat Dealership should
intervention be necessary on these
components.

CHILD PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
CARRYING CHILDREN
SAFELY
75) 76) 77) 78) 79) 80) 81)
For optimal protection in the event of an
impact, all occupants must be seated
and wearing adequate restraint
systems, including newborn and other
children! This prescription is
compulsory in all EC countries
according to EC Directive 2003/20/EC.
Children below the height of 1.50
metres and until 12 years, must be
protected with suitable restraint
systems and be seated on the rear
seats.
Statistics on accidents indicate that the
rear seats give a better performance
when protecting children safety.
Compared with an adult, a child's head
is larger and heavier in proportion to
their body and the child's muscular and
bone structures are not fully developed.
Therefore, correct restraint systems
other than adult seat belts are
necessary to reduce as much as
possible the risk of injuries in the event
of an accident, braking or sudden
manoeuvre.
Children must be seated safely and
comfortably. Depending on the
characteristics of the child restraint
systems used, you are advised to keep
children in rearward facing child
restraint systems for as long as
possible (at least until 3–4 years old),
since this is the most protected position
in the event of an impact.
The choice of the most suitable child
restraint system depends on the weight
and size of the child. It is recommended
to always choose the restraint system
most suitable for the child; for this
reason always refer to the Owner
Handbook provided with the child
restraint system, to be sure that it is of
the right type for the children it is
intended for.
In Europe the characteristics of child
restraint systems are ruled by the
regulation ECE-R44, dividing them into
five weight groups:
Group Weight range
Group0 upto10kg
Group 0+ up to 13 kg
Group 1 9–18 kg
Group 2 15–25 kg
Group 3 22-36 kg
All restraint devices must bear the
certification data, together with the
control mark, on a label solidly fixed to
the child restraint system which must
never be removed.
Lineaccessori MOPAR
®
includes child
restraint systems for each weight
group. These devices are
recommended having been specifically
designed for Fiat vehicles.
500L PRO versions
IMPORTANT For this outfit the highway
code does NOT allow to carry children
regardless of the retaining system:
child restraint systems, universal ISOFIX
child restraint systems, seat belts.
This limitation is extended to the front
seats as well.
FITTING A CHILD

various weight groups.
IMPORTANT The figures are indicative
and provided for assembly purposes
only. Fit the child restraint system
according to the instructions, which

76
SAFETY
Group 0 and 0+
Infants up to 13 kg must be carried with
a backward facing child restraint
system of a type as shown in fig. 74
which, supporting the head, does not
induce stress on the neck in the event
of sudden decelerations.
The child restraint system is secured by
the vehicle seat belts, as shown in the
figure and it must restrain the child in
turn with its own belts.
Group 1
Children of weight from 9 to 18 kg may
be carried in a forward facing child
restraint system fig. 75.
Group 2
Children from 15 to 25 kg may use the
vehicle seat belts directly fig. 76.
In this case, the child restraint system is
used to position the child correctly
with respect to the seat belts so that
the diagonal belt section crosses the
child’s chest and not the neck, and the
lower part is snug on the pelvis not
the abdomen.
Group 3
For children between 22 and 36 kg,
there are dedicated restraint systems
that allow the seat belt to be worn
correctly.
The fig. 77 shows the correct child
positioning on the rear seat.
Children over 1.50 m in height can wear
seat belts like adults.

SAFETY
FITTING AN ISOFIX
CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEM
82) 83) 84) 85)
The car is equipped with ISOFIX
anchorages, a new standard which
makes fitting a child restraint system
quick, simple and safe.
The ISOFIX system allows the ISOFIX
child restraint systems to be fitted,
without using the vehicle's seat belt,
but directly securing the child restraint
system to three anchorages present on
the vehicle. Traditional child restraint
systems can be fitted alongside ISOFIX
child restraint systems on different
seats in the same vehicle.
To install an ISOFIX child restraint
system, secure the restraint system to
the two metal anchorages A fig. 78
located where the rear seat cushion
meets the backrest, then fix the upper
strap (available together with the
restraint system) to the dedicated
anchorage B fig. 79 located at the
bottom behind the backrest.
500L Natural Power versions: should
the child restraint system anchorage
not be visible immediately, it is
recommended to remove the load
platform.
fig. 80 shows an example of a Universal
ISOFIX child restraint system for weight
group 1.
IMPORTANT The fig. 80 is indicative
and for assembly purposes only. Fit the

the instructions, which must be
included.
NOTE When a Universal ISOFIX child
restraint system is used, only ECE R44
"ISOFIX Universal" (R44/03 or further
upgrades) type-approved child restraint
systems can be used.
The other weight groups are covered
by specific ISOFIX child restraint
systems, which can be used only if
specifically tested for this vehicle (see

SAFETY
Main recommendations to carry
children safely
Install the child restraint systems on
the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of an
impact.
Keep children in rearward facing child
restraint systems for as long as
possible, until 3–4 years old if possible.
Should a rearward facing child
restraint system be installed on the rear
seats, it is advisable to position it as
far forward as the position of the front
seat allows.
If the passenger's front airbag is
deactivated always check the
dedicated LED on the trim located on
the dashboard switches on, to make
sure that it has actually been
deactivated.
Carefully follow the instructions
supplied with the child restraint system
itself. Keep the instructions in the
vehicle along with the other documents
and this handbook. Do not use
second-hand child restraint systems
without instructions.
Only one child is to be strapped into
each restraint system; never carry
two children using one child restraint
system.
Always check that the seat belts do
not rest on the child’s neck.
Always check that the seat belt is
well fastened by pulling on it.
While travelling, do not let the child sit
incorrectly or unfasten the belts.
Never allow a child to put the belt's
diagonal section under an arm or
behind their back.
Never carry children on your lap,
even newborns. No one can hold
a child in the case of an accident.
In the event of an accident, replace
the child restraint system with a new
one.
WARNING
75) SEVERE DANGER When a front
passenger airbag is fitted, do not install
rearward facing child restraint systems on
the front passenger seat. Deployment of
the airbag in an accident could cause fatal
injuries to the child regardless of the
severity of the collision. It is advisable to
always carry children in a child restraint
system on the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of an
impact.
76) On the sun visor there is a label with
suitable symbols reminding the user that it
is compulsory to deactivate the airbag if
a rearward facing child restraint system is
fitted. Always comply with the instructions
on the passenger's side sun visor (see
the "Supplementary Restraint System
(SRS) - Airbag" paragraph).
77) Should it be necessary to carry a child
on the passenger side front seat in a
rearward facing child restraint system, the
passenger side front airbag and side bag
must be deactivated through the display
main Menu (see the instructions in the
"Display" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter), verifying
deactivation by checking whether the LED
has switched on in the trim located
on the dashboard. Move the passenger's
seat as far back as possible to avoid
contact between the child restraint system
and the dashboard.
78) Do not adjust the front or rear seat if a
child is seated on it or on the dedicated
child restraint system.
79) Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an
accident the child restraint system may
become loose and the child may be
injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint
system for newborns or children, strictly
comply with the instructions provided
by the Manufacturer.
80) When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or with
the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from
the vehicle. Do not leave it unsecured
inside the passenger compartment. In this
way, in the case of sudden braking or an
accident, it will not cause injuries to the
occupants.
81) After installing a child restraint system,
do not move the seat: always remove
the child restraint system before making
any adjustment.
85
82) Always make sure that the chest
section of the seat belt does not pass
under the arms or behind the back of the
child. In the event of an accident the seat
belt will not be able to secure the child,
with the risk of injury, including fatal injury.
Therefore the child must always wear
the seat belt correctly.
83) Do not use the same lower anchorage
to install more than one child restraint
system.
84) If a Universal ISOFIX child restraint
system is not fixed to all three anchorages,
it will not be able to protect the child
correctly. In a crash, the child could be
seriously or fatally injured.
85) Fit the child restraint system only when
the vehicle is stationary. The child restraint
system is correctly fixed to the brackets
when you hear the click. Follow the
instructions for assembly, disassembly and
positioning that the Manufacturer must
supply with the child restraint system.
SUPPLEMENTARY
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
(SRS) - AIRBAG
The vehicle is equipped with:
front driver airbag;
front passenger airbag;
driver knee bag (for versions/
markets, where provided);
front side bags for pelvis, chest and
shoulder protection of driver and
passenger (for versions/markets, where
provided);
side bags for head protection of front
seat passengers and rear side seat
passengers (window bag).
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front driver/passenger airbags and
the driver's knee bag (for versions/
markets, where provided) protect the
front seat occupants in the event of
frontal impacts of medium/high severity,
by placing the bag between the
occupant and the steering wheel or
dashboard.
Therefore non-activation in other types
of collisions (side collisions, rear shunts,
roll-overs, etc.) is not a system
malfunction.
Driver and passenger front airbags are
not a replacement of but
complementary to the seat belts, which
should always be worn, as specified
by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
In the event of impact, those not
wearing a seat belt are projected
forwards and may come into contact
with the bag which is still inflating. The
protection offered by the bag is
compromised in these circumstances.
The front airbags may not activate in
the case of a frontal impact against
highly deformable objects not involving
the front surface of the vehicle (e.g.
wing collision against guard rail) or in
the case of the vehicle wedging under
other vehicles or protective barriers
(e.g. under trucks or guard rails).
Failure to activate in the conditions
described above is due to the fact that
they may not provide any additional
protection compared with seat belts, so
their activation would be inappropriate.
In these cases, non-deployment does
not indicate a system malfunction.

SIDE BAGS
To help increase occupants protection
in the event of certain side impact
collisions, the car is equipped with
seat-mounted side bags (for
versions/markets, where provided) and
window bag.
Side bags
(for versions/markets, where provided)
These comprise two types of bags
located in the front seat backrests fig.
87 which protect the pelvis, chest
and shoulder area of the occupants in
the event of a side impact of
medium/high severity.
Window bag
This comprises a "curtain" bag housed
behind the roof side linings and covered
by special trims fig. 88.
It is designed to protect the head of
front and rear occupants in the event of
a side collision, thanks to the wide
cushion inflation surface.
The deployment of side bags in the
event of side impacts of low severity is
not required.
In the event of a side impact, the
system provides best protection if the
passenger sits on the seat in a correct
position, thus allowing correct window
bag deployment.
Important
90) 92) 93) 94) 95) 96) 97) 98)
Do not wash the seats with water or
pressurised steam (wash by hand or at
automatic seat washing stations).
The front and/or side airbags
may activate in the event of sharp
impacts to the underbody of the car
(e.g. impact with steps, pavements,
potholes or road bumps etc.).
When the airbag deploys it emits a
small amount of dust: the dust is
harmless and does not indicate the
beginning of a fire. The dust may irritate
the skin and eyes however: in this
case, wash with neutral soap
and water.
Airbag checking, repair and
replacement must be carried out at a
Fiat Dealership.
If the vehicle is scrapped, have the
airbag system deactivated at a Fiat
Dealership.
Pretensioners and airbags are deployed
according to different logics on the
basis of the type of collision. Failure to
deploy of one or more of the devices
does not indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
86) Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering wheel, on the dashboard in
the passenger side airbag area, on side
upholstery on the roof or on the seats.
Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on
the passenger's side dashboard since
they could interfere with correct inflation of
the airbag and also cause serious injury
to the passengers.
87) Always drive keeping your hands on
the steering wheel rim so that the airbag
can inflate freely if necessary. Do not drive
with your body bent forward. Keep your
back straight against the backrest.

SAFETY
88) SEVERE DANGER: when an active
passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT install
rearward facing child restraint systems
on the front passenger seat. Deployment of
the airbag in an accident could cause fatal
injuries to the child regardless of the
severity of the impact. Therefore, always
deactivate the passenger side airbag when
a rearward facing child restraint system is
installed on the front passenger seat.
The front passenger seat must also be
positioned back as far as possible in order
to prevent the child restraint system from
coming into contact with the dashboard.
Immediately reactivate the passenger
airbag as soon as the child restraint system
has been removed.
89) When an active passenger airbag is
fitted, DO NOT install rear facing child
restraint systems on the front seat.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the child
regardless of the severity of the impact.
90) If the
warning light does not switch
on when the key is turned to MAR, or
stays on whilst driving, a fault may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In this
case the airbags or pretensioners may not
deploy in an impact or, in a lower number
of cases, they may be deployed
accidentally. Before proceeding, contact a
Fiat Dealership immediately to have the
system checked.
91) On some versions if the
warning
light does not switch on, the
warning
light switches on instead, deactivating
the explosive charges of the passenger
airbag.
92) If a side bag is present, do not cover
the front seat backrests with extra covers.
93) Do not travel carrying objects in your
lap, in front of your chest or between your
lips (pipe, pencils, etc.). They could cause
severe injury if the airbag is deployed.
94) If the vehicle has been subject to theft,
attempted theft, vandalism, or flooding,
have the airbag system inspected at a Fiat
Dealership.
95) When the ignition key is inserted and
turned to MAR, airbags may be deployed if
another vehicle crashes into yours, even if
the engine is not running and the vehicle
is stationary. Therefore, even if the vehicle
is stationary, when an active front
passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT install
rearward facing child restraint systems
on the front passenger seat. Deployment of
the airbag following an impact could cause
fatal injuries to the child. Therefore, always
deactivate the passenger side airbag
when a rearward facing child restraint
system is installed on the front passenger
seat. The front passenger seat must also
be positioned back as far as possible in
order to prevent the child restraint system
from coming into contact with the
dashboard. Immediately reactivate the
passenger airbag as soon as the child
restraint system has been removed. Also
remember that, if the key is turned to
STOP, none of the safety devices (airbags
or pretensioners) will be deployed in the
event of collision. Non-deployment in such
cases does not indicate a system
malfunction.
96) The
LED indicates the passenger
side airbag protection status. If the LED is
off, passenger side protection is active:
to deactivate it, use the Setup Menu (in this
case the LED lights up). When the engine
is started (ignition key turned to MAR
position), the LED turns on for about 8
seconds, provided that at least 5 seconds
have elapsed from when it was switched
off. If not, contact a Fiat Dealership. If
the engine is switched off/on again in less
than 5 seconds the LED may remain off.
In this case, to check correct LED
operation, switch the engine off, wait for at
least 5 seconds and switch the engine
on again. The LED may light up with
various intensity levels depending on the
vehicle conditions. The intensity may also
vary during the same key cycle.
97) The airbag deployment threshold is
higher than that of the pretensioners. When
the impact is between the two deployment
thresholds, it is normal that pretensioners
only are engaged.
98) The airbag does not replace seat belts,
but increases their efficiency. Because
front airbags are not deployed for
low-speed crashes, side collisions,
rear-end shunts or rollovers, occupants are
protected, in addition to any side bags,
only by their seat belts, which must
therefore always be fastened.

99) 100) 51) 52) 53) 54) 55)
Before starting the engine, adjust the
seat, the interior rear view mirrors,
the door mirrors and fasten the seat
belt correctly.
Never press the accelerator pedal for
starting the engine.
VERSIONS WITH MANUAL
GEARBOX
Petrol versions
Proceed as follows:
engage the handbrake and place the
gear lever in neutral. For 0.9 TwinAir
Turbo 105 HP versions engage the
handbrake and place the gear lever
in neutral or fully press the clutch pedal
if a gear other than neutral is engaged;
for all versions (except 0.9
TwinAir Turbo 105 HP) fully depress
the clutch pedal, without pressing
the accelerator;
turn the ignition key to AVV and
release it as soon as the engine starts.
Diesel versions
Proceed as follows:
engage the handbrake, put the gear
lever into neutral and turn the ignition
key to MAR: the warning lights
and on the instrument panel
will turn on;
wait for the warning lights
and
to turn off and then fully depress
the clutch pedal without pressing the
accelerator;
turn the ignition key to AVV as soon
as warning light
switches off.
Release the ignition key as soon as the
engine starts.
IMPORTANT If the engine does not
start at the first attempt, return the
ignition key to STOP before repeating
the procedure. If, with the ignition
key at MAR, the warning lights
and
(only for petrol versions) stay on
in the instrument panel, the ignition key
must be brought back to STOP and
then to MAR again. If the
warning
light stays on, retry with the other
keys provided. Contact a Fiat
Dealership if you still cannot start the
engine.
VERSIONS WITH
DUALOGIC GEARBOX
101)
Engine starting is allowed both with a
gear engaged and with the gearbox
in neutral (N).
However, the brake pedal must always
be pressed first if neutral is not
engaged. It is therefore advisable to
place the gear lever in neutral (N) before
starting the engine.
LPG AND NATURAL
POWER VERSIONS
The engine always starts up on petrol
independently of the mode previously
selected.
There must therefore always be an
adequate reserve of petrol in the tank to
protect the petrol pump and to
guarantee temporary switching from
methane or LPG to petrol operation, if
high performance is required.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition key to STOP while the
engine is idling.
IMPORTANT After a demanding drive,
before turning the engine off you should
allow it to idle to allow the temperature
in the engine compartment to
decrease.
93
WARNING
99) It is dangerous to run the engine in
enclosed areas. The engine burns oxygen
and releases carbon dioxide, carbon
monoxide and other toxic gases.
100) Remember that the brake servo and
power steering are not operational until the
engine has been started, therefore you
need to apply much more force than usual
to the brake pedal and steering wheel.
101) If the engine fails to start with a gear
engaged, the potentially dangerous
situation due to the fact that the gearbox is
automatically placed in neutral will be
signalled by an acoustic signal.
WARNING
51) Warning light flashing for 60
seconds after starting or during prolonged
cranking of the engine indicates a fault
with the glow plug heating system. You
can use the vehicle as usual if the engine
starts but you should contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
52) It is advisable not to demand maximum
performance from your vehicle (e.g.
excessive acceleration, long distances at
maximum rpm, excessively intense braking,
etc.) when it is first used.
53) When the engine is off, do not leave
the key turned to MAR to prevent
unnecessary electrical consumption from
draining the battery.
54) Never jump start the engine by
pushing, towing or coasting downhill.
These actions could cause the fuel to flow
into the catalytic converter and damage
it beyond repair.
55) Revving up before stopping the engine
is useless, it causes unnecessary fuel
consumption and can damage the engine,
in particular engines equipped with
turbocharger.
HANDBRAKE
102) 103)
The handbrake lever is located between
the two front seats.
Handbrake engagement: pull lever A
fig. 89 upwards until the vehicle is
braked. Four or five clicks are generally
enough when the car is on level
ground, while ten or eleven may be
required if the car is on a steep slope
and laden. If this is not the case,
contact a Fiat Dealership for
adjustment.
Handbrake disengagement: slightly
raise lever A and hold button B pressed
checking that the
warning light
switches off in the instrument panel.

IMPORTANT Reverse can only be
engaged when the vehicle is completely
stationary. With the engine running,
wait for at least 2 seconds with the
clutch pedal fully pressed before
engaging reverse to prevent damage to
the gears and grating.
IMPORTANT The clutch pedal should
be used only for gear changes. Do
not drive with your foot resting on the
clutch pedal, however lightly. For
versions/markets where provided, the
electronic clutch pedal control could cut
in, interpreting the incorrect driving
style as a fault.
90

95
WARNING
104) Depress the clutch pedal fully to
change gear correctly. Therefore, the floor
area underneath the pedal unit must not
be obstructed in any way. Ensure that the
floor mat is always laid flat and does not
interfere with use of the pedals.
WARNING
56) Do not drive with your hand resting on
the gear lever as the force exerted, even
if slight, could lead over time to premature
wear of the gearbox internal components.
USING THE
DUALOGIC
GEARBOX
(for versions/markets, where provided)
105) 57)
GEAR LEVER
The gear lever A fig. 91 is the
multistable floating type, in other words
it has three stable and three unstable
positions.
The three stable positions correspond
to neutral (N), reverse (R) and the
central position located between the
unstable positions (+) and (-).
The unstable positions, in other words
those that are abandoned as soon
as the lever is released, are the
positions for requesting a higher gear
(+), requesting a lower gear (–) and
requesting automatic operating mode
(A/M).
IMPORTANT With the engine started,
any error between the lever position
and the gear actually engaged is
signalled by a buzzer until consistency
is restored.
OPERATING MODE
The gearbox/transmission can function
in two operating modes:
MANUAL in which the driver decides
when to change gear;
AUTO in which the system decides
when to change gear.
MANUAL MODE
Proceed as follows:
press the brake pedal and start the
engine;
if AUTO is displayed, move the gear
lever A fig. 91 to A/M to select
MANUAL mode;
push the gear lever towards (+) to
engage first gear (if starting from N or
R, simply place the lever in the middle
position) or R to engage reverse;

STARTING AND DRIVING
release the brake pedal and press
the accelerator pedal;
in driving conditions, push the gear
lever towards (+) to engage the next
gear up or towards (–) to engage the
next gear down.
AUTOMATIC LOGIC
(AUTO)
Proceed as follows:
press the brake pedal and start the
engine;
if AUTO is not displayed, move the
gear lever A fig. 91 to A/M to select
AUTOMATIC mode;
push the gear lever towards (+) to
engage first gear (if starting from N or
R, simply place the lever in the middle
position), or R to engage reverse;
release the brake pedal and press
the accelerator pedal: the gear most
suited to the vehicle speed will be
engaged.
AUTO-ECO OPERATION
To activate the function press the ECO
button fig. 92. The ECO function can be
only activated only with automatic
mode active.
With the ECO function active, the
system will select the most suitable
gear depending on the vehicle speed,
engine rpm and intensity with which the
accelerator pedal is pressed, with the
aim of limiting fuel consumption.
“Kick Down” FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If necessary (e.g. when overtaking),
the system downshifts one or more
gears when the accelerator pedal
is depressed beyond the point where it
becomes stiff (and if the rpm allow it)
in order to provide suitable power and
torque for the acceleration requested
by the driver.
IMPORTANT The use of the “Kick
Down” function is recommended only
when overtaking or accelerating quickly,
in order not to increase fuel
consumption.
STEERING WHEEL
CONTROLS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
On some versions, the gearbox can
be managed sequentially using the
steering wheel controls fig. 93.
To use the controls on the steering
wheel, the gear lever must be in the
central position between (+) and (–).
To engage a higher gear: pull the
stalk (+) toward the steering wheel.
To engage a lower gear: pull the stalk
(-) toward the steering wheel.
The engagement of a lower (or higher)
gear is only permitted if the engine
rpm allow it.

engaged, the potentially dangerous
situation due to the fact that the gearbox is
automatically placed in neutral will be
signalled by an acoustic signal.
WARNING
57) Avoid keeping your hand on this lever
between gear change or AUTO/MANUAL
mode requests.
STOP/START
SYSTEM
106) 107) 58)
The Start&Stop system automatically
stops the engine each time the car
is stationary and starts it again when
the driver wants to move off.
In this way, the efficiency of the car is
increased, by reducing consumption,
emissions of harmful gases and noise
pollution.
OPERATING MODE
Engine stopping mode
With the car stopped, the engine stops
with gearbox in neutral and clutch
pedal released.
Note The engine can only be stopped
automatically after exceeding a speed
of about 10 km/h, to prevent the engine
from being repeatedly stopped when
driving at walking pace.
Restarting the engine
Press the clutch pedal to restart the
engine.

removed the ignition key or having rotated
it to the STOP position. During refuelling,
make sure that the engine is off and that
the ignition key is in the STOP position.
WARNING
58) If climate comfort is to be favoured, the
Stop/Start system can be disabled, for a
continuous operation of the climate control
system.
CRUISE CONTROL
(constant speed
regulator)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
108) 109)
DESCRIPTION
This is an electronically controlled
driving assistance device that allows
the desired car speed to be maintained,
without having to press the accelerator
pedal.
This device can be used at a speed
above 30 km/h on long stretches of dry,
straight roads with few variations (e.g.
motorways).
The use of this device on extra-urban
roads with traffic is not therefore
recommended. Do not use the device
in town.
ACTIVATING THE DEVICE
Turn ring nut A fig. 95 to . The
device cannot be engaged in 1
st
or
reverse gear: it is advisable to engage it
in 4
th
gear or higher.
MEMORISING /
RESTORING THE
MEMORISED SPEED
Speed memorising: turn ring nut A to
and press the accelerator pedal
so that the vehicle reaches the desired
speed. Move the stalk upwards (+)
for at least one second, then release it:
the speed is memorised and you can
release the accelerator pedal.
If needed (when overtaking for
instance), you can accelerate simply by
depressing the accelerator pedal:
when you release the pedal, the car
goes back to the speed stored
previously.
Travelling downhill with the device
engaged, the vehicle speed may
increase more than the memorised one.
95
F0Y0050C
99
Restoring the memorised speed:
accelerate gradually until reaching
a speed approaching the memorised
speed, engage the gear selected at the
time of speed memorising and press
the CANC RES button (B fig. 95).
INCREASING/
DECREASING
MEMORISED SPEED
Speed increase: press the accelerator
and memorise the new speed or move
the stalk upwards (+), until reaching
the new speed, which will be
memorised automatically.
Speed decrease: deactivate the
device and memorise the new speed or
move the stalk downwards (-), until
reaching the new speed, which will be
memorised automatically.
Each movement of the stalk
corresponds to an increase/decrease in
speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping
the stalk held upwards will continuously
increase the speed.
DEACTIVATING THE
DEVICE
The device can be switched off in the
following ways:
turning ring nut A to O;
by switching off the engine;
by pressing the brake pedal, the
clutch or the accelerator; in this last
case the device is not effectively
deactivated, rather it gives priority to
the acceleration request. The device still
remains active, without the need to
press the CANC RES button to return
to the previous conditions once
acceleration is concluded.
Automatic deactivation of the
device: the device deactivates
automatically if the ABS (or ESC)
systems are activated, if the vehicle
speed is below the set limit or in the
case of device failure.
WARNING
108) While travelling with the device
engaged, do not put the gear lever into
neutral.
109) In the case of malfunctioning or if the
device fails, turn ring nut to O and contact
a Fiat Dealership.
SPEED LIMITER
(for versions/markets, where provided)
DESCRIPTION
This steering aid device allows the
speed of the vehicle to be limited to
values which can be set by the driver.
The maximum speed can be set both
with vehicle stationary and in motion.
The minimum speed that can be set is
30 km/h.
When the device is active, the vehicle
speed depends on the pressure at
the accelerator pedal, until the set
speed limit is reached. If necessary (in
the event of overtaking for example),
the set speed limit can be exceeded by
fully depressing the accelerator pedal.
By gradually reducing the pressure
on the accelerator pedal, the device will
be reactivated as soon as the car
speed drops below the set speed.
100
STARTING AND DRIVING
To store a speed value higher/lower
than that displayed, move stalk A
upwards (+) to store a higher speed
value, or move stalk A downwards (-) to
store a lower speed value.
Each movement of the stalk
corresponds to an increase/decrease in
speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping
the stalk held upwards/downwards
will increase/decrease the speed with
an increment of 5 km/h.
DEVICE ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
To activate/deactivate the device, press
the CANC/RES button (B fig. 96).

device deactivates automatically in
the event of fault in the system.
PARKING SENSORS
110) 59)
SENSORS
The sensors are located in the rear
bumper fig. 97 and their function is to
detect the presence of any obstacles
near the rear part of the vehicle and
inform the driver, through an
intermittent acoustic signal.
ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically activated
when reverse gear is engaged. As the
obstacle behind the vehicle gets closer
to the car, the acoustic signal becomes
more frequent.

SPEED LIMIT
PROGRAMMING
The speed limit can be programmed
without necessarily activating the
device.
OPERATION WITH A
TRAILER
Sensor operation is deactivated
automatically when the trailer's electric
cable plug is fitted into the car's tow
hook socket.
The sensors are automatically
reactivated when the trailer's cable plug
is removed.
IMPORTANT
INFORMATION
When parking, take the utmost care
over obstacles that may be above
or below the sensors.
Under certain circumstances, objects
close to the vehicle are not detected by
the system and could therefore cause
damage to the car or be damaged
themselves.
Some conditions may influence the
performance of the parking sensors:
the presence of ice, snow, mud
or think paint on the sensor surface
may cause reduced sensitivity of the
sensor itself and therefore reduce
the system performance.
mechanical interference (e.g. washing
the car, rain, strong wind, hail) may
cause the sensor to detect a
non-existent obstacle ("echo
interference");
the presence of ultrasonic systems
(e.g. pneumatic brake systems of
trucks or pneumatic drills) near the car
could alter the signals sent by the
sensor;
the variation in sensor position,
caused by variation in ride (due
to suspension component wear),
changing tyres, overloaded car, or
tuning that lowers the car, for example,
may affect parking sensor system
performance.
WARNING
110) Parking and other dangerous
manoeuvres are, however, always the
driver’s responsibility. While carrying out
these manoeuvres, always make sure that
no people (especially children) or animals
are in the area concerned. The parking
sensors are an aid for the driver, but the
driver must never allow their attention
to lapse during potentially dangerous
manoeuvres, even those executed at low
speeds.
WARNING
59) The sensors must be free from mud,
dirt, snow or ice in order for the system to
operate correctly. Be careful not to scratch
or damage the sensors while cleaning
them. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The sensors should be washed
using clean water with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. When using special
washing equipment such as high pressure
jets or steam cleaning, clean the sensors
very quickly keeping the jet more than
10 cm away. Also, do not apply stickers to
the sensors.

IMPORTANT When parking, take the
utmost care over obstacles that may be
above or under the camera range.
WARNING
111) Parking and other potentially
dangerous manoeuvres are, however,
always the driver’s responsibility. While
carrying out these manoeuvres, always
make sure that no people (especially
children) or animals are in the area
concerned. The camera is an aid for the
driver, but the driver must never allow
his/her attention to lapse during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres, even those
executed at low speeds. Always maintain a
moderate speed, so as to be able to
brake promptly in the case of obstacles.

WARNING
60) It is extremely important, for correct
operation, that the camera is always kept
clean and free from mud, dirt, snow or ice.
Be careful not to scratch or damage the
camera while cleaning it. Avoid using
dry, rough or hard cloths. The camera
must be washed using clean water, with
the addition of car shampoo if necessary.
In washing stations which use steam or
high-pressure jets, clean the camera
quickly, keeping the nozzle more than 10

camera.
TOWING TRAILERS
112) 113) 114)
INSTALLING A TOW
HOOK
The towing device should be fastened
to the body by specialised personnel
according to any additional and/or
integrative information supplied by the
Manufacturer of the device.
The towing device must meet current
regulations with reference to Directive
94/20/EC and subsequent
amendments.
For any version the towing device used
must be right for the towable weight
of the vehicle on which it is to be
installed.
For the electrical connection a standard
connector should be used which is
generally placed on a special bracket
normally fastened to the towing device,
and a special ECU for external trailer
light control must be installed on the
vehicle.
Seven or thirteen pin 12 V DC
connections should be used (CUNA/
UNI and ISO/DIN Standards). Follow
any instructions provided by the vehicle
manufacturer and/or the towing device
manufacturer.
IMPORTANT
For towing caravans or trailers the car
must be fitted with a type-approved
tow hook and an adequate electrical
system. Installation must be carried out
by a specialist.
Install any specific and/or additional
rear view mirrors as specified by the
Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, braking
distances increase and overtaking
takes longer depending on the overall
weight of the trail.
Engage a low gear when driving
downhill, rather than constantly using
the brake.
The weight of the trailer on the car's
tow hook will reduce the load capacity
of the car by the same amount. To
make sure that the maximum towable
weight is not exceeded (given in the car
registration document) account should
be taken of the fully laden trailer,
including accessories and luggage.
Respect the speed limits specific to
each country for vehicles towing
trailers. In any case, the top speed
must not exceed 100 km/h.
Any electric brake or other device
(winch etc.) should be powered directly
by the battery through a cable with a
cross-section of no less than 2.5 mm
2
.
104
STARTING AND DRIVING
In addition to the electrical branches,
the car's electrical system can be
connected only to the supply cable for
an electric brake and to the cable for an
internal trailer light, though not more
than 15 W. To connect, use the preset
control unit with a battery cable with
cross-section no less than 2.5 mm
2
.
IMPORTANT The use of auxiliary loads
other than external lights (electric brake,
winch, etc.) must occur with engine
running.
IMPORTANT To install a tow hook
contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
112) The ABS with which the vehicle is
equipped will not control the braking
system of the trailer. Take particular care
when travelling on slippery roads.
113) Never modify the braking system of
the vehicle to control the trailer brake. The
trailer braking system must be fully
independent of the vehicle’s hydraulic
system.
114) After fitting, fixing screw holes must
be sealed to prevent an exhaust gas inlet.
REFUELLING THE
VEHICLE
115) 116) 117) 61)
During refuelling, switch the engine off,
engage the handbrake, turn the ignition
key to STOP and do not smoke.
PETROL ENGINES
Use unleaded petrol only, with octane
number (RON) no lower than 95.
DIESEL ENGINES
Only use Diesel for motor vehicles (EN
590 specification).
When using or parking the car for a
long time in the mountains or cold
areas, it is advisable to refuel using
locally available diesel. In this case, it is

insert the jack and the other tools in
the container;
arrange the container and tools on
the space-saver wheel;
correctly reposition the boot stiff
cover.
WARNING
118) The space-saver wheel (for
versions/markets, where provided) is
specific to your vehicle, do not use it on
other models, or use the space-saver
wheel of other models on your vehicle. The
space-saver wheel must only be used in
the event of an emergency. It must only be
used for the distance necessary to reach
a service point and the vehicle speed must
not exceed 80 km/h. The space-saver
wheel has an orange label that
summarises the main cautions for use and
limitations. Never remove or cover the
label. The following information is provided
in four languages on the label: "Important!
For temporary use only! 80 km/h max!
Replace with a standard wheel as soon as
possible. Never cover this indication".
Never apply any hub cap to the
space-saver wheel.
119) Use your hazard lights, warning
triangle, etc to show that your vehicle is
stationary. Passengers should get out
of the vehicle, particularly if it is heavily
loaded, and wait for the wheel to be
changed away from the traffic. In the event
of a wheel change on a slope or on
unsurfaced roads, chock the wheels (see
the following pages).
114
F0Y0368C
112
IN AN EMERGENCY
120) Vehicle handling is modified with the
space-saver wheel fitted. Avoid violent
acceleration and braking, abrupt steering
and fast cornering. The overall duration
of the space-saver wheel is about 3000
km, after which the relevant tyre must be
replaced with another one of the same
type. Never install a standard tyre on a rim
that is designed for use with a space-saver
wheel. Have the wheel repaired and refitted
as soon as possible. Using two or more
space-saver wheels at the same time
is forbidden. Do not grease the threads of
the stud bolts before fitting them: they
might slip out when driving.
121) The jack shall only be used for raising
the car model it has been supplied with.
Never use the jack for other purposes,
such as raising other car models. Never
use the jack for repair operations under the
vehicle. Incorrect positioning of the jack
may cause the vehicle to fall. Do not use
the jack for loads higher than the one
shown on its label. The space-saver wheel
cannot be fitted with snow chains. If a
front (drive) tyre is punctured and chains
are needed, use a standard wheel from the
rear axle and install the space-saver wheel
on the rear axle. This way, with two
standard front driving wheels, you can
install the snow chains on them.
122) Incorrect hub cap assembly may
cause it to come off when the vehicle is
moving. Never tamper with the inflation
valve. Never introduce tools of any kind
between rim and tyre. Check tyre and
space-saver wheel pressures regularly,
complying with the values given in the
"Technical specifications" chapter.
123) At the end of the operation of
raising/locking the spare wheel, the ignition
key must be extracted, taking care not to
turn it in the wrong direction to facilitate the
extraction of the key itself, to prevent the
attachment device from being released and
the wheel assembly not being securely
retained.
WARNING
63) Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the correct tightening
of the wheel stud bolts checked.

64) 3)
DESCRIPTION
The "Fix&Go Automatic" kit is located in
the luggage compartment, inside a
dedicated container. Inside the
container there are also a screwdriver,
the tow ring and the funnel for
refuelling, in the event of an emergency.
To access the kit, open the tailgate,
remove the load platform and lift the
carpet.
LPG versions: a tool box secured to
the luggage compartment carpet with
dedicated fastenings contains the kit.
The kit includes:
a bottle A fig. 115 containing sealing
fluid and fitted with: filling tube B and
adhesive label C with the wording
“max. 80 km/h” to be placed in a
clearly visible position (e.g. on
the dashboard) after repairing the tyre;
a compressor D including a pressure
gauge and connections, found in the
compartment;
113
instruction booklet to be used for
prompt and correct use of the kit and
then to be handed to the personnel
charged with handling the treated tyre;
a pair of protective gloves located
in the side compartment of the
compressor;
adapters for inflating different
elements.
IMPORTANT The sealing fluid is
effective with external temperatures of
between –20°C and +50°C. The sealing
fluid has an expiry date.
INFLATION PROCEDURE
Proceed as follows:
Pull the handbrake. Unscrew the
tyre valve cap, take out the filler hose A
fig. 116 and tighten the ring nut B on
the tyre valve;
make sure that the compressor
switch A is in position 0 (off), start the
engine, insert the plug into the power
socket in the central tunnel or the
luggage compartment (for
versions/markets where provided) and
operate the compressor, turning switch
A to position I (on).
inflate the tyre to the pressure
specified in the "Inflation pressure"
paragraph in the "Technical
specifications" section. Check tyre
pressure on gauge B with compressor
off to obtain a more precise reading;
if after five minutes it is still impossible
to reach at least 1.8 bar, disengage
the compressor from the valve and
power socket, then move the car
forwards by approx. ten metres in order
to distribute the sealing fluid inside the
tyre evenly, then repeat the inflation
operation;
if after this operation you still cannot
reach at least 1.8 bar after 5 minutes
from switching on the compressor,
do not resume driving but contact a
Fiat Dealership;
after driving for about 10 minutes
stop and check the tyre pressure again;
engage the handbrake and park
safely;
if a pressure value of at least 1.8 bar
is detected, restore the correct
pressure (with the engine running and
the handbrake engaged), resume
driving and drive with great care to the
nearest Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
124) Punctures on the sides of the tire may
not be repaired. Do not use the Fix&Go
Automatic kit if the tyre was damaged as a
result of being used when underinflated.
125) Wear the protective gloves provided
with the Fix&Go Automatic kit.
126) Apply the adhesive label where it can
be easily seen by the driver as a reminder
that the tyre has been treated with the
Fix&Go Automatic kit. Drive carefully,
particularly on bends. Do not exceed
80 km/h. Avoid sudden acceleration or
braking.
115
F0Y0012C
116
F0Y0010C
114
IN AN EMERGENCY
127) If the pressure has fallen below 1.8
bar, do not drive any further: the Fix&Go
Automatic kit cannot guarantee proper
hold because the tyre is too damaged.
Contact a Fiat Dealership.
128) You must always indicate that the tyre
was repaired using the Fix&Go Automatic
kit. Give the booklet to the technicians who
will be handling the tyre that was treated
using the Fix&Go Automatic kit.
129) Repairs are not possible in the case of
damage to the wheel rim (bad groove
distortion causing air loss). Do not remove
foreign bodies (screws or nails) from the
tyre.
130) Never operate the compressor for
longer than 20 consecutive minutes. Risk
of overheating. The Fix&Go Automatic kit is
not suitable for definitive repairs, so the
repaired tyres may only be used
temporarily.
131) The information required by current
regulations, regarding the chemical
substances for the protection of human
health and the environment and on the safe
use of the sealing fluid, are on the
packaging label. Compliance with the
indications on the label is an essential
condition to ensure the safety and
the effectiveness of the product.
Remember to carefully read the label
before use; the user of the product
is responsible for any damages caused by
improper use. The sealing fluid has an
expiry date. Replace the bottle if the
sealant has expired.
WARNING
64) In the event of a puncture caused by
foreign bodies, the kit may be used to
repair tyres showing damage on the tread
or shoulder up to max. 4 mm diameter.
WARNING
3) Dispose of the bottle and the sealant
properly. Dispose of the components
in compliance with national and local
regulations.
REPLACING A BULB
132) 133) 65) 66)
GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS
Before changing a bulb check the
contacts for oxidation;
burnt bulbs must be replaced by
others of the same type and power;
after replacing a headlight bulb,
always check the correct alignment of
the light beam;
when a light is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is intact
before changing a bulb. For the location
of fuses, refer to the paragraph “If a
fuse blows” in this section;
115
IMPORTANT When the weather is cold
or damp or after heavy rain or washing,
the surface of headlights or rear lights,
may steam up and/or form drops of
condensation on the inside. This is
a natural phenomenon due to the
difference in temperature and humidity
between the inside and the outside
of the glass which does not indicate a
fault and does not compromise the
normal operation of lighting devices.
The mist disappears quickly when the
lights are turned on, starting from
the centre of the diffuser, extending
progressively towards the edges.

JUMP STARTING
If the battery is flat, a jump starting can
be performed using the battery and
the cables of another vehicle, or using a
booster battery.
IMPORTANT
When a booster battery is used, comply
with the utilisation and precaution
instructions specified by the producer.
Do not use the booster battery or
any other source of external supply with
a voltage above 12 V: the battery, the
starter, the alternator and the electrical
system of the vehicle could be
damaged.
Do not attempt jump starting if the
battery is frozen. The battery could
break and explode!
PREPARATION TO JUMP
STARTING
140) 141) 142) 68)
IMPORTANT The positive terminal (+) of
the battery is shielded by a protective
cover. Lift the cover to access the
positive terminal.
Proceed as follows:
engage the handbrake, move the
Dualogic gear lever to P (Park) or,
for versions with manual gearbox, to
neutral and bring the ignition key to

devices in the vehicle;
if another vehicle is ready for jump
starting, park the vehicle within the
reach of the cables to be used for
starting, operate the handbrake and
make sure that the ignition is
deactivated.
IMPORTANT Avoid contact between
the two vehicles since this could cause
a connection to earth and may result
in serious injury to any people nearby.
PROCEDURE FOR JUMP
STARTING
IMPORTANT If the procedure below is
carried out incorrectly, it can cause
severe injury to people or damage the
recharging system of one or both
vehicles. Carefully follow the
instructions given below.
Cable connection
Proceed as follows to carry out a jump
starting:
connect one end of the cable used
for positive (+) to the positive terminal
(+) of the vehicle with flat battery;
connect the other end of the cable
used for positive (+) to the positive
terminal (+) of the auxiliary battery;
connect one end of the cable used
for negative (–) to the negative terminal
(–) of the auxiliary battery;
connect the other end of the cable
used for negative (–) to an engine earth
(the visible metal part of the vehicle
engine with flat battery) away from the
battery and the fuel injection system;
start the vehicle engine with the
auxiliary battery, let it run for a
few minutes at idling. Start the engine
of the vehicle with flat battery.
Cable disconnection
Once the engine has been started,
remove the cables proceeding as
follows:
disconnect the end of the cable used
for negative (–) from the engine earth
of the vehicle with flat battery;

terminal (+) of the vehicle with flat
battery.
128
IN AN EMERGENCY
If it is often necessary to perform a
jump starting, have the vehicle battery
and the recharging system checked
by a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Any accessories (e.g.
mobile phones, etc.) connected to the
vehicle power sockets draw current
even if they are not used. These
devices, if left connected too much time
with engine off, may cause the battery
to drain with following reduction of
its life and/or failure to start the engine.
WARNING
140) Do not get too close to the radiator
cooling fan: the electric fan may start;
danger of injury. Scarves, ties and other
loose clothing may be pulled by moving
parts.
141) Remove any metal objects (e.g. rings,
watches, bracelets), that might cause an
accidental electrical contact and cause
serious injury.
142) Batteries contain acid which may burn
skin and eyes. Batteries produce
hydrogen, which is easily flammable and
explosive. Thus keep away flames or
devices which may cause sparks.
WARNING
68) Do not connect the cable to the
negative terminal (–) of the flat battery. The
following spark could lead to battery
explosion and cause serious harm. Only
use the specific earth point; do not use any
other exposed metallic part.
FUEL CUT-OFF
SYSTEM
143)
This intervenes in the event of an
impact causing:
the interruption of the fuel supply with
the engine consequently cutting out
the automatic unlocking of the doors
the automatic switching on of the
interior lights
the switching on of the hazard
warning lights.
On some versions, the intervention of
the system is indicated by a message
shown on the display.
IMPORTANT Carefully check the car for
fuel leaks, for instance in the engine
compartment, under the car or near the
tank area. After a collision, turn the
ignition key to STOP to prevent the
battery from running down.
To restore the correct operation of the
car, proceed as follows:
turn the ignition key to the MAR
position;
activate the right direction indicator
and then stop it;
activate the left direction indicator
and then stop it;
activate the right direction indicator
and then stop it;
129
activate the left direction indicator
and then stop it;
turn the ignition key to the STOP
position and then to MAR.
LPG versions: in the event of an
impact, petrol supply is immediately
cut-off, the LPG safety valves are
closed and the injection is interrupted,
switching off the engine.
Natural Power versions: in the event
of an impact, the power supply is
immediately cut off, causing engine
switching off.
WARNING
143) If, after an impact, you smell fuel or
notice leaks from the fuel system, do
not reactivate the system to avoid the risk
of fire.
TOWING THE
VEHICLE
ATTACHING THE TOW
RING
144) 145) 146) 147)
The tow hook, which is supplied with
the car, is housed in the tool box, under
the mat in the luggage compartment.

130
IN AN EMERGENCY
146) Whilst towing, remember that the
assistance of the brake servo and the
electric power steering is not available,
therefore greater force needs to be exerted
on the brake pedal and more effort is
required on the steering wheel. Do not use
flexible cables when towing and avoid
jerky movements. Make sure not to
damage parts in contact with the car while
towing. When towing the car, you must
comply with all specific traffic regulations,
both in terms of the towing device and
behaviour on the road. Do not start the
engine while being towed.
131
147) The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on the road.
The car may be towed for short distances
when a dedicated device is used in
compliance with the Highway Code (rigid
bar), and in order to move the vehicle
on the road in preparation for towing or
transport via a tow truck (on the Trekking
versions do NOT use the rear tow hook for
transport on a tow truck: use the front
tow hook). Tow hooks MUST NOT be used
to tow vehicles off the road or where there
are obstacles and/or for towing operations
using ropes or other non-rigid devices.
Respecting the above conditions, towing
must take place with two vehicles (one
towing, the other towed) aligned as much
as possible along the same centre line.
WARNING
144) Before starting towing operations,
turn the ignition key to MAR and then
to STOP, without extracting it. The steering
column will automatically lock when the
key is removed, making it impossible
to turn the wheels.
145) Before tightening the ring, clean the
threaded housing thoroughly. Make sure
that the tow ring is fully fastened in the
housing before towing the vehicle.
SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULED
SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the vehicle
under the best conditions. For this
reason, Fiat has planned a series of
checks and services at fixed distance
intervals and, where provided, at fixed
time intervals, as described in the
Scheduled Servicing Plan.
Before each service, it is always
necessary to carefully follow the
instructions in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan (e.g. periodically check level of
fluids, tyre pressure, etc.).
Scheduled Servicing is offered by all
Fiat Dealerships according to a set time
schedule. If, during each operation, in
addition to the ones scheduled, the
need arises for further replacements or
repairs, these may be carried out with
the owner's explicit agreement only.
If your vehicle is used frequently for
towing, the interval between one
service operation and the next should
be reduced.
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
interventions are set out by the
Manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the warranty.
It is advisable to inform a Fiat
Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the next
service.
PERIODIC CHECKS
Every 1,000 km or before long
journeys, check and if necessary, top
up: engine coolant level; brake fluid
level; screen washer fluid level; tyre
inflation pressure and condition; lighting
system operation (headlights, direction
indicators, hazard warning lights, etc.);
screen washer/wiper system operation
and positioning/wear of windscreen/
rear window wiper blades.
Every 3,000 km, check and top up if
required: engine oil level.
HEAVY-DUTY USE OF THE
VEHICLE
If the vehicle is used under one of the
following conditions:
towing a trailer or caravan;
dusty roads;
short, repeated journeys (less than
7-8 km) at sub-zero outside
temperatures;
engine often idling or driving long
distances at low speeds or long periods
of inactivity;
the following checks must be carried
out more often than indicated in the
Scheduled Servicing Plan:
check front disc brake pad condition
and wear;
check cleanliness of bonnet and
luggage compartment locks,
cleanliness and lubrication of linkage;

CONTROL OIL
5)
The gearbox control oil level should only
be checked at a Fiat Dealership.
BATTERY
156) 157) 158) 159) 6)
The battery does not require the
electrolyte to be topped up with distilled
water. A periodic check carried out at
a Fiat Dealership is, however, necessary
to check efficiency.
IMPORTANT After the battery is
disconnected, the steering must be
initialised. The
warning light on the
instrument panel switches on to
indicate this. To carry out this
procedure turn the steering wheel all
the way from one end to the other
or drive in a straight line for about a
hundred metres.
IMPORTANT If the charge level remains
under 50% for a long time, the battery
is damaged by sulphation, reducing
its capacity and efficiency at start-up.
151
CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
In winter, the climate control system
must be turned on at least once a
month for about 10 minutes. Before
summer, have the system checked at a
Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
148) Never smoke when performing
operations in the engine compartment.
Flammable gases and fumes may be
present and risk igniting.
149) Be very careful when working in the
engine compartment when the engine
is hot: you may get burnt.
150) If the engine oil is being topped up,
wait for the engine to cool down before
loosening the filler cap, particularly for
vehicles with aluminium cap (where
provided). IMPORTANT: risk of burns!
151) The cooling system is pressurised. If
necessary, only replace the cap with
another original one or the operation of the
system may be adversely affected. Do
not remove the reservoir cap when the
engine is hot: risk of burns.
152) Do not travel with the washer fluid
reservoir empty: the washer operation
is essential for improving visibility. Repeated
operation of the system without fluid could
damage or cause rapid deterioration of
some system components.
153) Certain commercial additives for
washer fluids are inflammable. The engine
compartment contains hot components
which may set it on fire.
154) Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
corrosive. In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the affected
parts with water and mild soap. Then rinse
thoroughly. Call a doctor immediately if
swallowed.
155) The
symbol on the container
indicates a synthetic brake fluid, which is
different from a mineral fluid. Using a
mineral fluid will damage the special rubber
seals of the braking system beyond repair.
156) Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin and
eyes. Keep open flames away from the
battery and do not use objects that might
create sparks: risk of explosion and fire.
157) Using the battery with insufficient
fluid irreparably damages the battery and
may cause an explosion.
158) If the vehicle must remain unused for
a long time at a very low temperature,
remove the battery and take it to a warm
place, to avoid freezing.
159) When performing any operation on
the battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with special goggles.
WARNING
69) Be careful not to confuse the various
types of fluids while topping up: they
are not compatible with each other!
Topping up with an unsuitable fluid could
severely damage your vehicle.
70) The oil level should never exceed the
MAX mark.
71) Do not add oil with specifications other
than those of the oil already in the engine.
72) PARAFLU
UP
anti-freeze fluid is used
in the engine cooling system; use the same
fluid type as that already in the cooling
system when topping up. PARAFLU
UP
may not be mixed with other types of
anti-freeze fluids. In the event of topping up
with an unsuitable product, under no
circumstances start the engine and contact
a Fiat Dealership.
73) Avoid allowing brake fluid, which is
extremely corrosive, to come into contact
with painted areas. Should it happen, wash
immediately with water.
74) Incorrect assembly of electrical and
electronic accessories may cause severe
damage to your vehicle. Go to a Fiat
Dealership if you want to install accessories
(e.g. anti-theft, radio phone, etc.): they will
suggest the most suitable devices and
advise you whether a higher capacity
battery needs to be installed.
WARNING
4) Used engine oil and oil filters contain
substances which are harmful to the
environment. You are advised to contact a
Fiat Dealership to have the oil and filters
changed.
5) Used transmission fluid contains
substances that are harmful to the
environment. It is advisable to contact a
Fiat Dealership to have the fluid changed.
152
SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
6) Batteries contain substances which are
very dangerous for the environment. For
battery replacement, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
BATTERY
RECHARGING
160) 161)
IMPORTANT After turning the ignition
key to STOP and having closed the
driver side door, wait at least one
minute before disconnecting the
electrical supply from the battery. When
reconnecting the electrical supply to
the battery, make sure that the ignition
device is in the STOP position and
the driver side door is closed.
IMPORTANT Charging should be slow
at a low ampere rating for
approximately 24 hours. Charging for a
longer time may damage the battery.
IMPORTANT Make sure that the cables
of the electrical system are correctly
reconnected to the battery, i.e. the
positive cable (+) to the positive
terminal and the negative cable (–) to
the negative terminal. The battery
terminals are marked with the positive
(+) and negative (–) symbols, and are
shown on the battery cover. The battery
terminals must also be corrosion-free
and firmly secured to the terminals. If a
"quick-type" battery charger is used
with the battery fitted on the vehicle,
before connecting it disconnect both
cables of the battery itself. Do not use a
"quick-type" battery charger to provide
the starting voltage.
IMPORTANT The battery recharging
procedure is given as information only.
You are advised to contact a Fiat
Dealership to have this operation
carried out.
153
when finished, turn the charger off
before disconnecting the battery;
reconnect the negative battery
terminal.
VERSIONS WITH
Stop/Start SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
To recharge, proceed as follows:
disconnect connector A fig. 150
(pressing button B) from battery status
monitoring sensor C (fitted on the
negative battery terminal D);
connect the positive cable (+) of the
battery charger to the battery positive
terminal (+);
connect the negative cable (–) of the
battery charger to the pin D of the
negative battery terminal (–);
turn on the battery charger. When it
is recharged, turn the charger off before
disconnecting it from the battery;
reconnect the connector A to the
sensor C of the battery.
WARNING
160) Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive: avoid contact with skin and
eyes. The battery recharging operation
must be performed in a ventilated place,
away from naked flames or possible
sources of sparks to avoid the risk of
explosion and fire.
161) Don't try to recharge a frozen battery:
it must be thawed first, otherwise it may
explode. If the battery was frozen, have
it inspected by specialised personnel
before recharging to check that the internal
elements are not damaged and that the
casing is not cracked, which causes the
risk of leakage of poisonous, corrosive
acid.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING
162) Driving with worn windscreen/rear
window wiper blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.
WHEELS AND TYRES
SUGGESTIONS ABOUT
THE ROTATION OF THE
TYRES
164) 77) 78) 79) 80)
The front and rear tyres are subject to
different loads and stress due to
steering, manoeuvres and braking. For
this reason they are subject to uneven
wear.
To resolve this problem, tyres should be
rotated at the appropriate time. This
operation is recommended for tyres
with a deep tread pattern, suitable both
for on-road and off-road driving.
Tyre rotation contributes to the
preservation of the grip and traction
performance on wet, muddy or snowy
roads, guaranteeing optimal driveability
of the vehicle.
In the case of irregular wear of the
tyres, the reason must be identified and
corrected before rotating them.
WARNING
164) Do not cross switch the tyres if they
are "one-way" type. In this case, always
take care not to fit the tyres with a direction
of rotation that is opposite to that
indicated: you would risk losing grip and
control of the vehicle.
WARNING
77) Road holding depends also on the
correct tyre inflating pressure.
78) If the pressure is too low the tyre
overheats and this can cause it serious
damage.
79) Do not cross switch the tyres, moving
them from the right of the vehicle to the left
and vice versa.
80) Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C. The
mechanical properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
BODYWORK
PRESERVING THE
BODYWORK
Paintwork
81) 7)
Touch up abrasions and scratches
immediately to prevent the formation of
rust. On some versions the car may
be equipped with an exclusive matt
paint which, in order to be maintained
intact, requires special care.
82)
To correctly wash the vehicle, follow
these instructions:
if the vehicle is washed remove the
aerial from the roof;
if high pressure jets or cleaners are
used to wash the vehicle, keep a
distance of at least 40 cm from the
bodywork to avoid damage or
alteration. Build up of water could
cause damage to the vehicle in the long
term;
wash the bodywork using a low
pressure jet of water;
wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy
solution over the bodywork, frequently
rinsing the sponge;
rinse well with water and dry with a
jet of air or a chamois.
157
WARNING
81) In order to preserve the aesthetic
appearance of the paint abrasive products
and/or polishes should not be used for
cleaning the vehicle.
82) Avoid washing with rollers and/or
brushes in washing stations. Wash the
vehicle only by hand using neutral pH
detergents; dry it with a wet chamois
leather. Abrasive products and/or polishes
should not be used for cleaning the vehicle.
Bird droppings must be washed off
immediately and thoroughly as the acid
they contain is particularly aggressive.
Avoid (if at all possible) parking the vehicle
under trees; remove vegetable resins
immediately as, when dried, it may only be
possible to remove them with abrasive
products and/or polishes, which is highly
inadvisable as they could alter the typical
opaqueness of the paint. Do not use pure
screen washer fluid for cleaning the
windscreen and rear window; dilute it min.
50% with water. Only use pure screen
washer fluid when strictly necessary due to
outside temperature conditions.
WARNING
7) Detergents pollute water. Only wash
your vehicle in areas equipped to collect
and treat wastewater from this type of
activity.

SNOW CHAINS
Important
83)
Note Reduced-width snow chains with a maximum projection of 9 mm beyond the tyre profile can be fitted on 195/65 R15
91H and 205/55 R16 91H tyres. 225/45 R17 91V tyre cannot be fitted with snow chains.
The use of snow chains should be in compliance with local regulations of each country. In certain countries, tyres marked with
code M+S (Mud and Snow) are considered as winter equipment; therefore their use is equivalent to that of the snow chains.
Snow chains can be fitted to the tyres of the front wheels (drive wheels) only.
Check the tension of the snow chains after the first few metres have been driven.
Using snow chains with tyres with non-original dimensions may damage the vehicle.
Using different size or type (M+S, snow, etc.) tyres between front and rear axle may adversely affect vehicle driveability, with the
risk of losing control of the vehicle and resulting accidents.
Snow chains cannot be fitted to the space-saver wheel (for versions/markets, where provided). If a front tyre is punctured,
replace a rear wheel with the space-saver wheel and move the rear wheel to the front axle. In this way, with two normal drive
wheels at the front, snow chains can be fitted.
WARNING
165) The maximum speed for snow tyres marked "Q" is 160 km/h, while it is 190 km/h for "T" tyres and 210 km/h for "H" tyres. The highway
code speed limits must however always be complied with.
166) Do NOT fit hub caps when using integral caps fixed (with springs) to the steel rim and aftersales tyres provided with Rim Protector. Use
of unsuitable tyres and hub caps may cause sudden decrease of tyre pressure.
WARNING
83) Keep your speed down when snow chains are fitted; do not exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes, steps and pavements and avoid driving for
long distances on roads not covered with snow to prevent damaging the car and the road surface.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the tables below are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests laid down by
specific European Directives.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic conditions, weather conditions, driving style, general condition of the vehicle, trim
level/equipment/accessories, use of the climate control system, vehicle load, presence of roof racks and other situations that
adversely affect the aerodynamics or wind resistance lead to different fuel consumption values than those measured. The
fuel consumption will get more regular only after having driven the first 3000 km.
IMPORTANT For some versions/markets the "ECO" fuel consumption values shown in the following tables are obtained only
using the GoodYear 205/55 R16 91H tyre.

PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE VEHICLE AT THE END OF
ITS LIFE
FCA has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its production
processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly "eco-compatible". To grant customers the best possible service
in terms of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Directive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of
their life, FCA is offering its customers the chance to hand over their vehicle at the end of its life without incurring any additional
costs. The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over, the last keeper or owner should not incur any
expenses as a result of it having a zero or negative market value.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, contact one of our dealerships if you are purchasing another
vehicle or an FCA-authorised collection and scrapping centre. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality
service for the collection, treatment and recycling of vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from an FCA dealership or by calling the
number in the Warranty Booklet or by consulting the websites of the various FCA brands.

MULTIMEDIA DEVICES
IMPORTANT Some multimedia player
may not be compatible with the
Uconnect™ system.
ANTI-THEFT
PROTECTION
The system is equipped with an
anti-theft protection system based on
the exchange of information with the
electronic control unit (Body Computer)
on the vehicle.
This guarantees maximum safety and
prevents the secret code from being
entered after the power supply has
been disconnected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the
system will start to operate, whereas if
the comparison codes are not the
same or if the electronic control unit
(Body Computer) is replaced, the
system will ask the user to enter the
secret code according to the procedure
described in the paragraph below.
Entering the secret code
When the system is switched on, if the
code is requested, the display will
show "Please enter Anti-Theft Code"
followed by the screen showing a
keypad to enter the secret code.
The secret code is made up of four
digits, from 0 to 9: to insert the first digit
of the code, turn the BROWSE/ENTER
right knob and press to confirm.
After entering the fourth digit, the
system begins operating.
If an incorrect code is entered, the
system displays "Incorrect Code" to
notify the user of the need to enter the
correct code.
After the 3 available attempts to enter
the code, the system displays
"Incorrect Code. Radio locked. Wait for
30 minutes". Once the text has
disappeared you can start the code
entering procedure again.
Vehicle radio passport
This document certifies ownership of
the system. The vehicle radio passport
shows the system model, serial number
and secret code.
In the case of loss of the vehicle radio
passport, contact the Fiat Dealership,
taking an ID document and the vehicle
ownership documents.
207
IMPORTANT Keep the vehicle radio
passport in a safe place so that you
can give the information to the relevant
authorities if the system is stolen.
IMPORTANT
In the event of a fault, the system must
only be checked and repaired by a
Fiat Dealership.
If the temperature is particularly low, the
display may take a while to reach
optimum brightness.
If the vehicle is stopped for a while and
the external temperature is very high,
the system may go into “thermal
protection” mode, suspending
operation until the radio temperature
returns to acceptable levels.
Look at the screen only when it is
necessary and safe. If you need to look
at the screen for a long time, pull over
to a safe place so as not to be
distracted while driving.
Immediately stop using the system in
the event of a fault. Otherwise the
system might be damaged. Contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible
to have the system repaired.
WARNING
167) Follow the safety rules below;
otherwise serious injuries may occur to the
occupants or the system may be
damaged.
168) If the volume is too loud this can be
dangerous. Adjust the volume so that
you can still hear background noises (e.g.
horns, ambulances, police vehicles, etc.).
WARNING
85) Only clean the front panel and the
display with a soft, clean, dry, anti-static
cloth. Cleaning and polishing products
may damage the surface. Do not use
alcohol or similar products to clean the
panel or the display.
86) Do not use the display as a base for
supports with suction pads or adhesives
for external navigators or smartphones
or similar devices.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
WARNING
INTERIOR FITTINGS
Do not travel with the storage compartments open: they may injure the front seat occupants in the event of an accident.
The cigar lighter gets extremely hot. Handle it carefully and make sure that children don’t use it: risk of fire and/or burns.
ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
Check that the attachment fixing screws are tight after a few kilometres.
Never exceed the maximum permitted loads (see chapter "Technical specifications").
Evenly distribute the load and take into account, when driving, the increased responsiveness of the vehicle to side wind.
LAVAZZA 500 ESPRESSO EXPERIENCE SETUP
Use the accessory with vehicle stationary.
ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER
Take care when fitting additional spoilers, alloy wheel rims or non-standard wheel hubs: they could reduce the ventilation of the brakes and
affect efficiency under sharp, repeated braking or on long descents. Make sure that nothing obstructs the pedal stroke (mats, etc.).
INTERIORS
Never use flammable products, such as petroleum ether or modified petrol, to clean the inside of the car. The electrostatic charges which
are generated by rubbing during the cleaning operation may cause a fire.
Do not keep aerosol cans in the vehicle: danger of explosion. Aerosol cans must not be exposed to a temperature exceeding 50°C. When
the vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the internal temperature can greatly exceed this value.
There must be no obstacles on the floor underneath the pedals; make sure that mats are always flat and do not interfere with the pedals.
SUPPLY
Modifications or repairs to the fuel supply system that are not carried out correctly or do not take the system’s technical specifications into
account can cause malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
WARNING
ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
Fully comply with the regulations in force concerning maximum clearance.
LAVAZZA 500 ESPRESSO EXPERIENCE SETUP
Use the accessory with engine on, in order to protect the battery charge. If several devices absorbing a high amount of current (e.g.
activation of climate control unit or heated rear window defrosting) are used simultaneously, the accessory could fail to operate.
WIRING FOR RADIO SYSTEM
For connection to the radio system set-up, contact a Fiat Dealership to prevent any problem that could impair vehicle safety.
INTERIORS
Never use alcohol, petrols and derivatives to clean the dashboard and instrument panel lens.
