from the braking system to windscreen wipers, from shock absorbers to pollen filter.

All Genuine Parts undergo strict controls, both during design and manufacturing stages,

by specialists using vanguard materials, to test the component reliability.

This to guarantee performance and safety for you and your passengers on board, for a long time.

Always ask for and make sure a Genuine Part has been used.

ESSENTIAL INFORMATION!

REFUELLING

Only use diesel fuel compliant with European

specification EN590. The use of other products

or mixtures may damage the engine beyond

repair and consequently invalidate the warranty.

the gear lever in neutral. Fully depress the clutch

pedal, without pressing the accelerator, then

turn the ignition key to the MAR-ON position

and wait for the and warning lights

to switch off; turn the ignition key to AVV and

release it as soon as the engine starts.

PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL

The catalytic converter develops high

temperatures during operation. Do not park the

car on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other

flammable material: fire hazard.

RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

The car is fitted with a system that allows

continuous diagnosis of the components related

to emissions to ensure increased respect for

the environment.

ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES

If, after buying the car, you decide to add

electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually

draining the battery), contact a Fiat Dealership.

They will calculate the overall electrical

requirement and check that the car’s electrical

system can support the required load.

CODE card

(for versions/markets, where provided)

Keep it in a safe place, not in the car. You should

have the electronic code shown on the CODE

card with you at all times.

SCHEDULED SERVICING

Correct maintenance of the car is essential for

ensuring that it maintains its performance and its

safety features, its environmental friendliness

and low running costs for a long time to come.

SPEEDOMETER

Shows the car speed (speedometer).

REV COUNTER

This indicates the engine rpm.

When the engine is idling, the rev counter may

indicate a gradual or sudden increase of the speed.

This behaviour is standard as it takes place during the

activation of the climate control system or the fan.

It should not be considered as a fault. In these cases,

a slow change in revs is used to protect the battery

charge.

IMPORTANT The electronic injection control system

gradually shuts off the flow of fuel when the engine

is “over-revving” resulting in a gradual loss of engine

power.

FUEL LEVEL GAUGE

This shows the amount of fuel left in the fuel tank.

Warning light A fig. 3 comes on to indicate that

approximately 8-10 litres of fuel are left in the tank.

Etank empty

Ftank full (see the instructions provided in the

"Refuelling the car" paragraph in this chapter).

Do not travel with the fuel tank almost empty: any

gaps in fuel delivery could damage the catalytic

converter.

IMPORTANT The needle will point to E and warning

light A fig. 3 will flash to indicate a fault in the

system. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the system

checked.

fluid and starts working when the fluid temperature

exceeds approx. 50°C.

Warning light B fig. 3 may light up (and a message on

the display may appear on certain versions) to

indicate that the coolant fluid temperature is too

high; in this case, stop the engine and contact a Fiat

Dealership.

If the needle for the engine coolant

temperature reaches the red area, stop

the engine immediately and contact a Fiat

Dealership.

SYMBOLS

symbols indicate precautions to be observed when

using this component.

A plate summarising these symbols fig. 4 can be

found under the bonnet.
