SPEEDOMETER

Shows the car speed (speedometer).

REVCOUNTER

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 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.

FUELLEVELGAUGE

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 E tank empty

F tank 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 warni light A fig. 3 will flash to indicate a fault in the system. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the syste checked.

THEFIATCODESYSTEM

To further protect your car from theft, it has been fitted with an engine immobilising system. 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 th vehicle is started, through which the control unit recognises the key and enables starting.

OPERATION

Each time the vehicle is started turning the ignition key to MAR-ON, the Fiat CODE system control unit sends an acknowledgement code to the engine control unit 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 CODE system deactivates the functions of the engine management control unit.

If, during starting, the code is not correctly recognised, the warning light (or symbol on the display) switches on in the instrument panel.

In this case, turn the key to STOP and then to MAR-ON; 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.

IMPORTANT Each key has its own code which must be stored by the system's control unit. To have new keys stored, up to a maximum number of eight keys, contact a Fiat Dealership and be ready to present all the keys you have in your possession, the CODE card, a personal identity document and the car ownership documents. The codes for keys not presented during the storing procedure will be deleted to ensure that any keys that are lost or stolen cannot be used to start the engine.

SAFELOCKDEVICE

(for versions/markets, where provided)

This safety device inhibits the operation of:

□interior handles;

☐door locking/unlocking button on the central trim fig. 11;

thereby preventing the opening of the doors from inside the passenger compartment if there has been a break in attempt (e.g. a window has been broken).

The safe lock device therefore offers the best possible protection against break-in attempts. We recommend engaging it whenever the vehicle is parked and left unattended.

Deviceactivation

The system is automatically enabled on all the door by pressing button twice on the key with remote control.

Device activation is indicated by 3 flashes of the direction indicators and a flash of the LED on the door locking button on the dashboard.

If one or more of the doors is not closed correctly, the dead lock device will not activate, thus preventing a person from getting stuck inside the passenger compartment by entering the car through, and then closing, the open door.

Devidedeactivation

The system is disabled automatically on every door

□unlocking the doors;

☐ by turning the ignition key to the MAR-ON position.

ALARM

(for versions/markets, where provided)

The alarm, in addition to all the remote control functions described previously, is controlled by the receiver located under the dashboard near the fuse box.

ALARMACTIVATION

The alarm intervenes in the following instances:

□when a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened illegally (perimeter protection);

□when the ignition system is started up (ignition key turned to MAR-ON);

□cutting of the battery leads;

□movement inside the passenger compartment (volume sensing protection);

☐anomalous lifting/tilting of the vehicle.

Depending on the market, the activation of the alarm causes the activation of the siren and the direction indicators (for about 26 seconds). Alarm tripping and the number of cycles depend on the sales market.

There is a maximum number of acoustic/visual cycle. When this is reached the system returns to normal operation.

The volume sensing and anti-lift protection can be excluded by adjusting the dedicated control on the front roof light (see “Volume sensing/Anti-lift protection”).

IMPORTANT The engine stop function is guaranteed by the Fiat CODE which is automatically activated when the key is extracted from the ignition switch.

TURNINGTHEALARMON

With the doors, bonnet and tailgate closed and the ignition key either turned to STOP or removed, point the key with remote control towards the vehicle and press and release button.

Excluding some markets, the system produces an acoustic signal (beep) and enables door locking.

The switching on of the alarm is preceded by a self-diagnosis stage: if a fault is detected, the system emits a new acoustic signal together with the display of a message (see "Warning lights and messages" chapter).

In this case switch off the alarm by pressing check that all the doors, bonnet and tailgate are closed correctly; then switch the alarm back on by pressing the button.

If a door, the bonnet and the tailgate are not properly shut, they will be excluded from the check by the alarm system.

If the alarm emits an acoustic signal even when the doors, bonnet and tailgate are correctly closed, a failure has occurred in system operation. Go to a Fiat Dealership.

IMPORTANT The alarm does not come on when the central locking is activated using the metal insert in the key.

IMPORTANT The alarm is adapted to meet requirements in various countries.

TURNINGTHEALARMOFF

Press button on the key with remote control.

The following operations are performed (excluding some versions for specific markets):

☐direction indicators flash twice;

☐there are two short acoustic signals (beeps);

☐doors are unlocked.

IMPORTANT The alarm does not switch off when the central opening is activated using the metal insert in the key.

VOLUMESENSING/ANTI-LIFT PROTECTION

To guarantee the correct operation of the protection system it is advisable to shut all the side windows and the sun roof (for versions/markets, where provided).

If necessary, the function can be turned off (if, for example, you are leaving an animal in the car) by pressing button A fig. 12, located in the front roof light, before activating the alarm itself.

When the function is disabled, this is indicated by the LED on the button flashing for several seconds. Any disabling of the volume sensing/anti-lift protection must be repeated each time the instrument panel is switched off.

BREAK-INATTEMPTINDICATION

Any break-in attempt is indicated by the warning light (or symbol in the display) lighting up, together with a message shown in the display (see “Warning lights and messages” chapter).

DISABLINGTHEALARM

To turn the alarm off completely (for example, if the vehicle is not being used for a long time), the vehicle must be closed by turning the metal insert of the key with remote control in the lock.

IMPORTANT If the batteries of the key with remote control run out or the system fails, the alarm can be switched off by placing the key in the ignition switch and turning it to MAR-ON.

When the speed drops below this threshold – possible when setting off, for example – the ventilation speed is automatically reduced to minimum.

AIRDISTRIBUTIONSELECTION

Press one or more of these buttons/→ t↓ manually select one of the seven possible air distribution settings for the passenger compartment:

Air flow to the windscreen and front side window diffusers to demist/defrost them.
Air flow to the front and rear footwell diffusers. This air distribution allows the passenger compartment to be warmed up quickly.
Air flow distribution between front and rear diffusers, centre/side dashboard diffusers, rear diffuser and windscreen and front side window demisting/defrosting diffusers.
→ Air flow distribution to centre/side dashboard diffusers (passenger's body).

Air flow distribution between footwell diffusers and windscreen and front side window defrosting/demisting diffusers. This distribution setting allows the passenger compartment to be warmed effectively and prevents the windows from misting.
Air flow distribution between footwell diffusers (hotter air) and centre/side dashboard diffusers and rear diffuser (cooler air).
Air flow distribution between centre/side dashboard diffusers, rear diffuser and windscreen and front side window demisting/defrosting diffusers. This distribution setting ventilates the passenger compartment well and prevents the windows from misting up.

IMPORTANT For the climate control system to function, at least one of the buttons/→ must be operated. The system does not allow the deactivation of all the button/→.

☐press button C fig. 42.

INCREASINGTHESTOREDSPEED

This can be done in two ways:

☐ by pressing the accelerator and memorising the new speed reached;

or

☐by temporarily turning ring nut B fig. 42 to (+).

Each movement of the ring nut will correspond to a slight increase in speed (about 1 km/h), while keeping the ring nut turned will correspond to a continuous speed increase.

REDUCINGTHESTOREDSPEED

This can be done in two ways:

☐by switching off the device and then memorising the new speed;

or

☐by keeping ring nut B fig. 42 turned to (−) until the new speed is reached; it will then be memorised automatically.

Each movement of the ring nut will correspond to a slight reduction in speed (about 1 km/h), while keeping the ring nut turned will correspond to a continuous reduction in speed.

TURNINGTHEDEVICEOFF

Turn the ring nut A fig. 42 to OFF or turn the ignition key to STOP. The device is automatically turned off in one of the following cases:

HEADLIGHTS

LIGHTBEAMDIRECTION

The correct aiming of the headlights is important for position. the comfort and safety of not only the driver but The display shows the position while adjusting. all other road users. This is also covered by a specific

rule of the highway code.

The headlights must be correctly aligned to guarantee the best visibility conditions for all drivers while travelling with headlights on.

Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the lights checked and adjusted, if necessary.

IMPORTANT When the gas discharge (Xenon) headlamps (for versions/markets, where provided) are switched on, normally parabolas and light beam move vertically for about 2 seconds until headlamp alignment has stabilised.

HEADLIGHTALIGNMENTCORRECTOR

This device works with the ignition key in the MAR-ON position and the dipped beam headlights on.

The car will tilt backwards when it is loaded, raising the light beam. The beams must therefore be realigned in this case.

For adjusting, press buttons and fig. 88 on the dashboard.

Press button ▲D to increase the light beam of one position.

Press button▼D to decrease the light beam of one position.

IMPORTANT If the car is equipped with (Xenon) discharge headlights, the headlight alignment is controlled electronically, as a consequence the ▲D and buttons are not present.

FOGLIGHTALIGNMENT

Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the lights checked and adjusted, if necessary.

ADJUSTINGTHEHEADLIGHTSWHEN ABROAD

The dipped beam headlights are aligned for operation in the country where the vehicle was originally purchased. When in countries where you drive on the other side of the road, you need to alter the beam direction by affixing a specially designed self-adhesive film in order not to dazzle the vehicles travelling in the opposite direction.

Such film is provided by Lineaccessori Fiat and is available at Fiat Dealerships.

ABSSYSTEM

ABS is an integral part of the braking system which prevents, whatever the road conditions and force applied to the brake pedal, the wheels from locking and consequently sliding under braking, thus ensuring that the vehicle remains under control even during emergency braking.

The EBD system (Electronic Braking Force Distribution) completes the system allowing the brake force to be distributed between the front and rear wheels.

IMPORTANT To obtain the maximum efficiency of the braking system, a bedding-in period of about 50 km is needed: during this period it is better to avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged braking.

WARNING

TheABSgetsthemostfromthe availablegrip,butitcannotimproveit; youshouldthereforetakeeverycarewhen drivingonslipperysurfacesandnottake unnecessaryrisks.

SYSTEMINTERVENTION

The driver can feel that the ABS system has come into action because the brake pedal pulsates slightly and the system gets noisier: it means that the car speed should be altered to suit the type of road surface.

BRAKEASSIST

(emergencybrakingassistance)

(for versions/markets, where provided)

The system, which cannot be turned off, recognises emergency braking (on the basis of the brake pedal operating speed) and speeds up the response of the braking system.

Brake Assist is deactivated on the versions equipped with ESP, in the event of ESP system failure, indicate by warning light coming on together with the message on the display.

ESPSYSTEM

(ElectronicStabilityProgram)

(for versions/markets, where provided)

This is an electronic system that controls car stabil in the event of tyre grip loss, helping maintain directional control.

The ESP system is therefore particularly useful when the grip conditions of road surfaces change.

With the ESP, the car is provided with ASR (tract control with interventions on brakes and engine), HILL HOLDER (device for starting on gradients without using the brakes), MSR (control of engine braking torque when shifting gear down) and HBA (automatic increase of braking pressure in the case emergency braking).

SYSTEMINTERVENTION

It is signalled by the blinking of the warning light Ⓐ on the instrument panel, to inform the driver that the car is in critical stability and grip conditions.

SYSTEMACTIVATION

The ESP system comes on automatically when the vehicle is started and cannot be turned off.

ESPSYSTEMFAILUREINDICATIONS

In the event of a failure, the ESP system will be automatically switched off and warning light will switch on constantly on the instrument panel (on some versions along with a message on the display, see “Warning lights and messages” chapter). In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership.

WARNING

Donottakeunnecessaryrisks, even if your vehicle is fitted with an ESP Your driving style must always be suited. Good conditions, visibility and traffic. Veris always responsible for roads safety.

HILLHOLDERSYSTEM

(for versions/markets, where provided)

It's integral to the ESP system. It automatically activates with the following conditions:

☐uphill: vehicle stationary on a road with a gradient higher than 5%, engine running, clutch and brake pedals pressed and gearbox in neutral or gear other than reverse engaged;

☐downhill: car stationary on a road with a gradient higher than 5%, engine running, clutch and brake pedal pressed and reverse gear engaged.

When setting off the ESP system control unit will keep brake force on wheels until the torque necessary for starting is reached, or in any case for max. 2 seconds in order to pass easily from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.

When two seconds have elapsed, without starting, the system is automatically deactivated, gradually releasing the braking pressure. During this release stage, the typical mechanical brake release noise can be heard, indicating that the car is about to move.

HILLHOLDERSYSTEMFAILURE INDICATIONS

A possible system failure is indicated by the Ⓐ warning light on the instrument panel - together with the dedicated message in the multifunction display (for versions/markets, where provided) - coming on (see "Warning lights and messages" chapter).

IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is not a parking brake, therefore do not leave the car without activating the handbrake, switching off the engine and engaging first gear.

FIAT Bravo (2010) - HILLHOLDERSYSTEMFAILURE INDICATIONS - 1

WARNING

If the space-saver wheel is used, the ESP system keeps operating. Always remember that the space-saver wheel, being smaller than the original wheel, provides less grip. For the correct operation of the ESP and ASR systems is vital that the types are the same make and the same type on all the wheels, imperfect condition and, above all, the recommended type, make and size.

ASRSYSTEM(AntislipRegulation)

This is integral to the ESP system and automatically intervenes if one or both drive wheels slip, helping the driver to control the car.

Depending on the slipping conditions, two different control systems are activated:

☐if the slipping involves both drive wheels, the ASR intervenes reducing the power transmitted by the engine;
☐if the slipping only involves one of the drive wheels, the ASR intervenes automatically braking the wheel that is slipping.

The action of the ASR system is particularly helpful in the following circumstances:

☐slipping of the inner wheel on bends due to dynamic variations in the load or excessive acceleration;
☐excessive power transmitted to the wheels, also in relation to road surface conditions;
□acceleration on slippery, snowy or icy road surfaces;
☐loss of grip on wet road surfaces (aquaplaning).

MSRSYSTEM(ENGINEEDRIVE REGULATION)

This is an integral part of the ASR system that, in the event of a sudden gear downshifting, cuts in and provides torque to the engine thus preventing excessive drive wheel drive which, especially in poor grip conditions, can lead to loss of stability.

ENGAGEMENT/DISENGAGEMENTOFTHE ASRSYSTEM

The ASR system switches on automatically each time the engine is started.

When the system is active, a message is shown on the display (see “Warning lights and messages” chapter).

Whilst driving, the ASR can be deactivated and subsequently activated again by pressing the ASR OFF button on the dashboard, next to the steering wheel.

Whilst driving, the ASR can be switched off and subsequently switched on again by pressing button

Every time the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON the ASR OFF button LED switches on for a few seconds to indicate that the system is running a diagnosis. The LED activation should not be understood as a fault.

When the ASR is switched off, the button LED light up (along with a message on the display, see "Warning lights and messages" chapter).

If the ASR is switched off when driving, it is automatically switched on again when the vehicle is started up.

When travelling on snowy roads with snow chains, it may be helpful to turn the ASR off: in fact, in these conditions, slipping of the drive wheels when moving off makes it possible to obtain better traction.

Fault indications In the event of a fault, the ASR system will be deactivated automatically and the warning light will switch on constantly on the instrument panel (together with a message on the display) (see "Warning lights and messages" chapter). In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

EOBDSYSTEM

The EOBD system (European On Board Diagnostic) is a diagnosis system installed on the ECUs, which detects and reports possible malfunctions in the electronic systems that could worsen emissions.

The goal of the system is to:

□monitor the system efficiency;
☐indicate an increase in emissions due to vehicle malfunction;
□indicate the need to replace components which have deteriorated.

It also alerts the driver, by turning on the warning light ☐ on the instrument panel (together with relevant message on the display), when these components are damaged; it can also report any system malfunctions (see "Warning lights and messages" chapter).

Note The car also has a connector that can be interfaced with appropriate tools, which makes it possible to read the error codes stored in the electronic control units together with a series of specific parameters for engine operation and diagnosis. This check can also be carried out by the traffic police.

IMPORTANT After an operation at the Fiat Dealership, aimed at solving malfunctions linked to the EOBD system, some bench tests should be made, along with road tests if necessary, for a complete check of the system. The latter may also require the car to cover a long distance.

Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones, CB radios etc.) cannot be used inside the car unless a separate aerial is mounted externally.

IMPORTANT The use of these devices inside the passenger compartment (without an external aerial) may cause the electrical systems to malfunction. This could compromise the safety of the car in addition to constituting a potential hazard for passengers' health.

In addition, transmission and reception of these devices may be negatively affected by the shielding effect of the car body. As far as the use of EC-approved mobile phones is concerned (GSM, GPRS, UMTS), follow the usage instructions provided by the mobile phone manufacturer.

"DUALDRIVE"ELECTRICPOWER STEERINGSYSTEM

The car is equipped with an electrically controlled power steering system called "Dualdrive", working only with the ignition key at MAR-ON and the engine running, that customises steering force according to the driving conditions.

IMPORTANT When turning the ignition key quickly full power steering functionality can be achieved after 1-2 seconds.

ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION (CITYfunction)

(for versions/markets, where provided)

To turn the function on/off, press button A fig. 92 the dashboard, next to the steering wheel.

FIAT Bravo (2010) - ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION (CITYfunction) - 1

text_image A ASR OFF

fig. 92
F0Q0693

The activation of the function is signalled by the word CITY on the display (in some versions it is signalled by the switching on of the warning light CITY).

When the CITY function is on, the steering wheel effort is lighter and parking operations are easier: therefore this function is particularly useful for driving in city centres.

FAILUREINDICATIONS

Any failure of the electric power steering system is indicated by instrument panel warning light coming on together with a message on the display (on some versions together with a symbol on the display (see "Warning lights and messages" chapter).

In the event of electric power steering system failure, the car can be driven with mechanical steering.

SPORTFUNCTION

(for versions/markets, where provided)

The vehicle may be equipped with a system that allows a choice between two styles of driving, normal and sports.

Pressing the SPORT button fig. 93 produces a sporty driving setting characterised by higher acceleration response and more effort required at the steering wheel for a sporty driving sensation.

Pressing the SPORT button also activates the turbocharger supercharging function (overboost).

Via this function the engine management control unit allows - in relation to the position of the accelerator pedal and for a limited time - maximum pressure levels to be reached inside the turbocharger, with a consequent increase in engine torque with respect to that which is normally possible.

This function is particularly useful whenever maximum performance is required for a short time (e.g. when overtaking).

The letter S is lit up in the instrument panel display when the function is switched on. Press the button again to switch the function off and restore the normal driving setting.

FIAT Bravo (2010) - SPORTFUNCTION - 1

text_image SPORT

fig. 93

IMPORTANT When the SPORT button is pressed, the function is activated about 5 seconds later.

IMPORTANT During acceleration, when the SPORT function is used the steering may shudder which is typical of a sports setting.

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; so, no intervention is required. When the car is used again later on, the power steering w work normally.

Acceleration

Sudden acceleration has a very negative effect on fuel consumption and emissions: accelerate gradually to contain consumption.

When the SPORT function is used the consumption figures will be slightly higher than those stated.

TPMS(TyrePressureMonitoring System)

(for versions/markets, where provided)

The car may be fitted with a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), which informs the driver of the tyre inflation status via the "Check tyre pressure" and "Low tyre pressure" messages on the display. For a detailed description of the two messages, see the "Warning lights and messages" chapter.

The system comprises a radio-frequency transmitter fitted to each wheel (on the wheel rim inside the tyre), which is able to send information on the tyre inflation pressure of each wheel to the control unit.

FIAT Bravo (2010) - TPMS(TyrePressureMonitoring System) - 1

WARNING

The presence of the TPMS does not permit the drivertoneglect regular

checkingofthepressureofthetyresandthe sparewheel(see"Wheels"inthe"Maintenance andcare"chapter).

WARNING

Sensor malfunctioning fault indications are not stored and will therefore not be displayed after the engine has been switched off and then on again. If the fault conditions persist, the control unit will send the relative indications to the instrument panel only after the vehicle has been in motion for a short time.

Tyre pressure must be checked with tyres rested and 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 (see "Wheels" in the "Technical data" chapter).

The TPMS is not able to warn you of sudden tyre pressure losses (for example when a tyre bursts). In this case, stop the car, braking with caution and avoiding abrupt steering.

Particularly strong radio-frequency interference may cause the TPMS to function incorrectly. This condition is indicated to the driver by a warning light (!) or symbol lighting up on the instrument panel together with a dedicated message. The message will disappear automatically as soon as the radio-frequency interference ceases to affect the system.

The TPMS requires the use of specific equipment. Contact a Fiat Dealership to find out which accessories are compatible with the system (wheels, hub caps, etc.). Using other accessories may hinder the normal operation of the system. Given the unique valve specifications, only use Fiat-approved sealers to repair the tyres. The use of other sealers may prevent the normal operation of the system.

If the vehicle is fitted with TPMS, when a tyre is removed, it is advisable to replace the rubber gasket for the valve as well as the ring nut fixing the senso Have this operation performed at a Fiat Dealership.

If the punctured tyre indication persists on the instrument panel after the initial conditions have been restored using the tyre repair kit ("Fix&Go Automatic"), contact a Fiat Dealership.

Changes in outside temperature may cause tyre pressures to vary. The TPMS may temporarily indicate insufficient pressure. In this case, check the tyre pressure when cold and, if necessary, restore the inflation values.

If the vehicle is fitted with TPMS, tyre and/or rims fitting/removal operations require specific precautions. To avoid damaging the sensors or fitting them incorrectly, tyre and/or rims fitting/removal operations should be carried out only by specialists. Contact a Fiat Dealership.

PARKINGSENSORS

(for versions/markets, where provided)

Parking sensors provide the driver with information on the distance when approaching obstacles behind the vehicle (versions with 4 rear sensors) or in front of and behind the vehicle (versions with 4 fr and 4 rear sensors).

The system therefore provides a further aid during parking manoeuvres because it allows the identification of obstacles outside of the driver's field of vision.

The driver is notified of the presence and distance of the obstacle from the vehicle by an acoustic signal which varies depending on the distance from the obstacle (as the distance from the obstacle decreases the frequency of the acoustic signal increases).

SENSORS

In order to measure the distance of obstacles, the system uses 4 sensors located in the front bumper (for versions/markets, where provided) fig. 94 and 4 sensors located in the rear bumper fig. 95.

Versionwith4sensors

On the version with 4 rear sensors, the system is activated automatically when the reverse gear is engaged.

When reverse gear is released, the front and rear sensors remain activated until a speed of around km/h is exceeded to allow the parking manoeuvre be completed.

The system can also be activated by pressing the button P▲fig. 96 in the central panel: a warning light in the button comes on when the system is activated.

Every time the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON the LED on the button▲flashes briefly to indicate that the system is running a diagnosis. The LED activation should not be understood as a fault.

The sensors are deactivated by pressing the button again P▲ fig. 96 or when a speed of 15 km/h is exceeded: the warning light in the button is off wh the system is not active.

When the sensors are activated, the system starts to produce acoustic signals from the front or rear

buzzers as soon as an obstacle is detected with the frequency increasing as the obstacle gets closer.

When the obstacle is less than about 30 cm away, the sound becomes continuous. Depending on the position of the obstacle (in front or behind) the sound is produced by the corresponding buzzers (front or rear). The obstacle closest to the vehicle is signalled.

The acoustic signal stops immediately if the distance of the obstacle increases. The sound cycle remains constant if the distance measured by the centre sensors remains unchanged, while if this situation occurs for the side sensors, the signal is interrupted after about 3 seconds (for example, to prevent signals in the case of manoeuvres alongside walls).

driver's responsibility. When making these manoeuvres, always makes sure that no people (especially children) or animals are present in your manoeuvringspace. The parkingsensors are designed to assist drivers: in any case, you must always pay the most attention during potentially dangerous manoeuvres, even when carried out at low speed.

ACOUSTIC SIGNAL

The information concerning the presence and distance of an obstacle from the vehicle is transmitted by means of acoustic signals from buzzers installed in the passenger compartment:

☐in the versions with 4 rear sensors, a buzzer in the front dashboard area warns of the presence of rear obstacles;
☐in the versions with 8 sensors (4 front and 4 rear sensors), a front buzzer warns of the presence of obstacles at the front and a buzzer located at the rear warns of the presence of obstacles at the rear. This notifies the driver of the direction (front/rear) of the obstacles.

When reverse gear is engaged an intermittent acoustic signal is automatically activated.

The acoustic signal:

☐increases as the distance between the car and the obstacle decreases;
becomes continuous when the distance between the car and the obstacle is less than 30 cm and stops immediately if the distance increases;
☐remains constant if the distance remains unchanged; if this situation concerns the side sensors, the buzzer will stop after about 3 seconds to avoid, for example, warning indications in the event of manoeuvres along walls.

The operation of the sensors is automatically deactivated when the trailer's electric cable plug is inserted in the car's tow hook socket.

The sensors are automatically enabled again when the trailer's cable plug is removed.

IMPORTANT If you wish to leave the tow hook fitted when there is no trailer, it is advisable to contact a Fiat Dealership to have the system updated because the tow hook could be detected as an obstacle by the central sensors.

FAILUREINDICATIONS

GENERALWARNINGS

During parking manoeuvres, pay the utmost attention to any obstacles that could be located above or below the sensors.

Under certain circumstances close objects located in front of or behind the car may not be detected and could therefore cause damage to the car or be damaged themselves.

The following conditions may influence the performance of the parking sensor system:

☐Reduced sensor sensitivity and a reduction in the parking assistance system performance could be due to the presence on the surface of the sensor of: ice, snow, mud, thick paint.

☐The sensors may detect a non-existent obstacle (echo interference) due to mechanical interference, for example when washing the car, in rain (strong wind), hail.

☐The signals sent by the sensors can also be altered by the presence of ultrasonic systems (e.g. pneumatic brake systems or pneumatic drills) near the vehicle.

☐The performance of the parking assistance system may also be affected by the position of the sensors. For example, if the geometry is altered (as a result of wear of the shock absorbers, suspension), the tyres are changed, the vehicle is too heavily laden or specific tuning is carried out that lowers the vehicle.
☐The detection of obstacles at the top part of the car may not be guaranteed because the system detects obstacles that could cause an impact with the car in the bottom part.

ATTHEFILLINGSTATION

MOTORIDIESEL-Operationatlow temperatures

If the outside temperature is very low, diesel thickens due to the formation of paraffin clots with consequent defective operation of the fuel supply system.

In order to avoid these problems, different types of diesel are distributed according to the season: summer type, winter type and arctic type (cold/mountain areas). If refuelling with diesel fuel whose specifications are not suitable for the current temperature, it is advisable to mix TUTELA DIESEL ART additive in the proportions shown on the container. Pour the additive into the tank before the diesel fuel.

When using or parking the car for a long time in mountains or cold areas, it is advisable to refuel using locally available diesel. In this case, it is also advisable to keep the tank over 50% full.

This car is also equipped with a second pretensioner (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 involve any fire hazard.

IMPORTANT To obtain the highest degree of protection from the action of the pretensioner, wear the seat belt tight to the chest and pelvis.

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 mud, it must be replaced

LOADLIMITERS

To increase passenger safety in an accident, the front and rear (for versions/markets where provided) seat belt reels contain a load limiter which controls the force acting on the chest and shoulders during the restraining action of the belts in the event of a head-on collision.

GENERALINSTRUCTIONSFORUSING THESEATBELTS

The driver must comply with (and have all car passengers follow) any local regulations in force concerning the use of seat belts. Always fasten the seat belts before setting off.

Seat belts are also to be worn by pregnant women: the risk of injury in the case of accident is greatly 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 (see fig. 102). The best way to protect the unborn child is to protect the mother. When a safety belt is worn properly, it is more likely that the unborn child will not be hurt in a crash. For pregnant women, as for anyone, the key to making safety belts effective is wearing them properly.

SEATBELTSMAINTENANCE

Observe the following precautions for correct seat belt maintenance:

□always use the seat belt with the strap well stretched and not twisted; make sure that it is 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 substance which could damage the belt fibres;

☐prevent the reels 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.

CARRYINGCHILDRENSAFELY

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.

Compared with an adult, a child's head is larger and heavier in proportion to his/her 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 a sudden manoeuvre.

Children must be seated safely and comfortably. As far as the characteristics of the child restraint systems used allow, you are advised to keep children in rear facing 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 device depends on the weight of the child; there are various types of child restraint systems and you are advised always to choose the one that is most suitable for the child.

When over 1.50 m in height, from the point of view of restraint systems, children are considered as adults and wear seat belts normally.

In Europe the characteristics of children restraint systems are ruled by the regulation ECE-R44, dividing them into five weight groups:

GroupWeightgroups

Group 0 up to 10 kg of weight
Group 0+ up to 13 kg of weight
Group 1 9-18 kg in weight
Group 2 15-25 kg in weight
Group 3 22-36 kg of weight

All child restraint devices must bear the certification data, together with the control mark, on a label solidly fixed to the seat which must never be removed.

Lineaccessori Fiat offers child restraint systems for each weight group. These devices are recommended having been specifically designed for Fiat cars.

Mainrecommendationstocarrychildren safely:

☐ Install the child restraint systems on the rear seat, which is the most protected position in the event of an accident.
☐Keep children in rear facing restraint systems for long as possible, until 3–4 years old if possible.
☐Should a rear 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 warning light on the instrument panel to make sure that it has actually been deactivated.
☐Carefully follow the child restraint manufacturer's instruction supplied with the child restraint system. Keep the instructions in the car 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 retaining system; never carry two children using one child restraint system.

□Always check that the seat belts do not interfere with the child's throat.
□Always check that the seat belt is well fastened by pulling on it.
☐While travelling, do not let the child sit incorrect 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 restrain a child in the event of an accident.
asIn the event of an accident, replace the child restraint system with a new one.

The car is fitted with front airbags for the driver a the passenger, and with a knee bag on the driver's side (for versions/markets, where provided).

The front driver/passenger airbags and the driver's knee bag (for versions/markets, where provided) have been designed to protect the front seat occupants in the event of frontal impacts of medium/high severity, by placing the bag between occupant and the steering wheel or dashboard.

Therefore non-deployment in other types of impacts (side impacts, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) does not indicate a system malfunction.

In the event of a frontal impact, an electronic control unit triggers the inflation of the bags if required. The cushions immediately inflate, placing themselves between the front occupants' bodies and structures that could cause injuries. Immediately after, the cushions deflate.

The front driver/passenger airbags and the driver's knee bag (for versions/markets, where provided) are not a replacement for, but rather complement the use of, seat belts, which should always be worn, as specified by law in Europe and most non-European countries.

In the event of an impact, those not wearing a seat belt will move forward and come into contact with the bag which is still inflating. The protection offered by the bag is compromised in these circumstances.

Front airbags may not be activated in the following situations:

frontal impacts against highly deformable objects not involving the front surface of the car (e.g. wing collision against guard rail, etc.);

□car wedging under other vehicles or protective barriers (e.g. 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.

SIDEAIRBAGS (Sidebag-Windowbag)

The car is fitted with front side bags for driver and passenger, protecting the chest/pelvis, and window bags for protecting front and rear passengers' heads.

Side airbags protect occupants from side impacts of medium/high severity by placing the bag between the occupant and the internal parts of the side structure of the car.

Non-activation of side bags in other types of collisions (frontal impacts, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc...) is not an indication of system malfunction.

In the event of a side impact, an electronic control unit triggers the inflation of the bag if required. The cushion immediately inflates, placing itself between the occupant's body and structures that could cause injuries. Immediately after, the cushion deflates.

Side bags are not a replacement of, but rather a complement to, seat belts, which you are recommended to wear at all times, as specified by law in Europe and most non-European countries.

SIDEBAGS

(for versions/markets, where provided)

These comprise two types of bags located in the front seat backrests fig. 117 which protect the pelvis, chest and shoulder area of the occupants in the event of a side impact of medium/high severity.

WINDOWBAG

(for versions/markets, where provided)

This comprises a "curtain" bag housed behind the roof side linings and covered by special trims fig. 11 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 correct position, thus allowing correct window bag deployment.

For this reason, the seat belt must be worn at all times. In the case of side impacts, the seat belts ho occupants in the correct position and prevent them from being thrown out of the car by a very violent collision.

Therefore, front side bags (for versions/markets, where provided) are not a replacement of, but complementary to, seat belts, which you are recommended to always wear, as specified by law in Europe and most non-European countries.

IMPORTANT Do not affix rigid objects to the garment hooks or support handles.

IMPORTANT Do not rest your head, arms or elbows on the door, on the windows and on the window bag area to avoid injuries during inflation.

IMPORTANT Never lean your head, arms or elbows out of the window.

IMPORTANT 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

Do not wash the seats with water or pressurised steam (wash by hand or at automatic seat washing stations).

The front airbags and/or front side bags (for versions/markets, where provided) may be deployed if the car is subject to heavy collisions or accidents involving the underbody area, such as for example violent shocks against steps, kerbs or low obstacles, car falling into big holes or sags in the road.

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 car is scrapped, have the airbag system deactivated at a Fiat Dealership.

Therefore, even if the car is stationary, when an active passenger air bag is fitted, DONOT install rearward facing child restraintsystem on the front passenger seat. Deployment of the airbag following an impact could cause fatal injury in the child. Therefore, always deactivates passenger air bag when are forward facing child restraints system is installed on the front passenger seat. The front passenger seat must also be positioned back as far as possible in order to avoid the child restraints system from coming into contact with the dashboard. Immediately reactivates passenger air bag 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 (air bags or pretensioners) will be deployed in the event of collision. Non-deployment insuch cases does not indicate a system malfunction.

SAVINGFUEL

Some useful tips are given below for fuel saving and reducing harmful emissions of C₂ and other pollutants [nitrogen oxides, unburnt hydrocarbons, Particulate Matter (PM) etc.].

GENERALCONSIDERATIONS

The general factors that affect fuel consumption are listed below.

Carmaintenance

Have checks and adjustments carried out in accordance with the “Scheduled Servicing Plan”.

Tyres

Check the tyre pressures at least once every four weeks: if the pressure is too low, consumption level increase as resistance to rolling is higher.

Unnecessaryloads

Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight of the car (especially when driving in town) and its ride greatly affects consumption and stability.

Roofrack/skirack

Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof after use. These accessories lower aerodynamic penetration and adversely affect consumption levels. When transporting particularly large objects, use a trailer if possible.

Electricdevices

Use electrical devices only for the amount of time necessary. The heated rear window, additional headlights, windscreen/rear window wipers and heater fan need a considerable amount of energy, therefore increasing fuel consumption (by up to 25 in the urban cycle).

Climatecontrolsystem

Air conditioning leads to higher fuel consumption average up to +20%). If the temperature outside permits, try and use the air vents.

Spoilers

The use of non-certified spoilers may adversely affect air drag and fuel consumption.

DRIVINGSTYLE

The main driving styles that affect fuel consumption are listed below.

Starting

Do not warm the engine with the car at a standstill or at idle or high speed: under these conditions the engine warms up much more slowly, increasing electrical consumption and emissions. It is therefore advisable to move off immediately, slowly, avoiding high speeds: in this way the engine will warm faster.

Unnecessaryactions

Avoid accelerating when starting at traffic lights or before switching off the engine. This and also double declutching is absolutely pointless on modern cars and also increases consumption and pollution.

Gearselection

As soon as the conditions of the traffic and road allow, use a higher gear. Using a low gear for faster acceleration will increase consumption.

In the same way improper use of a high gear increases consumption, emissions an engine wear.

Max.speed

Fuel consumption increases considerably with speed. Maintain a constant speed, avoiding unnecessary braking and acceleration, which cost in terms of both fuel consumption and emissions.

Acceleration

Accelerating violently severely affects consumption and emissions: acceleration should be gradual and should not exceed the maximum torque.

USAGECONDITIONS

The main usage conditions that negatively affect fuel consumption are listed below.

Coldstarting

Short journeys and frequent cold starts do not allow the engine to reach optimum operating temperature. This results in a significant increase in consumption levels (from +15 to +30% on the urban cycle) and emissions.

Trafficandroadconditions

Rather high consumption levels are linked to situations with heavy traffic, for instance when travelling in queues with frequent use of the lower gears or in cities with many traffic lights. Winding mountain roads and rough road surfaces also adversely affect consumption.

Traffichold-ups

During prolonged hold-ups (e.g. level crossings) the engine should be switched off.

TOWINGTRAILERS

IMPORTANTNOTES

For towing caravans or trailers the car must be fitted with a certified tow hook and an adequate electric system. Installation should be carried out by specialised personnel who will issue the required papers for travelling on roads.

Install any specific and/or additional rear view mirror 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.

Engage a low gear when driving downhill, rather than constantly using the brake.

The weight the trailer exerts on the car tow hook reduces the car's loading capacity 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 maximum speed must not exceed km/h.

INSTALLINGTHETOWHOOK

The towing device should be fastened to the bodywork by specialised personnel according to any additional and/or integrative information supplied by the Manufacturer of the device. The towing devi must meet current regulations with reference to Directive 94/20/EEC and subsequent amendments. For any version the towing device used must be right for the towable weight of the car on which it is to be installed.

IMPORTANT The use of auxiliary loads other than external lights (electric brake, winch, etc.) must be used with engine running.

For the electric connection a unified connector should be used, which is generally placed on a special bracket fastened to the towing device, and a special ECU should be installed on the car to control the trailer's exterior lights.

7 or 13-pole 12 V DC connections should be used (CUNA/UNI and ISO/DIN Standards). Follow any instructions provided by the car manufacturer and/or the towing device manufacturer.

An electric brake or winch should be powered directly by the battery through a cable with a cross-section of no less than 2.5 mm

IMPORTANT Electric brakes or other devices must be used with engine running.

In addition to the electrical branches, the vehicle'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. For connections use the preset control unit with battery cable no less than 2.5 mm

SNOWTYRES

Use snow tyres of the same size as the normal tyre provided with the car.

A Fiat Dealership will be happy to provide advice concerning the most suitable type of tyre for the customer's requirements.

For the type of tyre to be used, inflation pressures and the specifications of snow tyres, follow the instructions given in paragraph "Wheels" in section "Technical specifications".

The winter features of these tyres are reduced considerably when the tread depth is below 4 mm. Replace them in this case.

Due to snow tyre features, under normal conditions of use or on long motorway journeys, the performance of these tyres is much lower than that of standard tyres. Their usage should therefore be restricted in accordance with their type approval.

IMPORTANT When using snow tyres with a maximum speed index below the one that can be reached by the car (increased by 5%), place a notice in the passenger compartment, plainly in view, which states the maximum speed allowed by the snow tyres (as per EC Directive).

All four tyres should be the same (brand and track) to ensure greater safety when driving and braking and better driveability.

Remember that you should not change the rotation direction of the tyres.

SNOWCHAINS

The use of snow chains should be in compliance with local regulations.

Snow chains may 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.

Use reduced size snow chains:

☐for 205/55 R16" tyres, use reduced size snow chains with a maximum projection of 9 mm beyond the tyre profile;

☐for 225/45 R17" tyres, use reduced size snow chains with a maximum projection of 7 mm beyond the tyre profile.

IMPORTANT 225/40 R18 92V tyres cannot be fitted with chains. Snow chains may cause interference with the surrounding elements.

IMPORTANT Snow chains cannot be fitted to the space-saver wheel. 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.

CARINACTIVITY

If the car is to be left inactive for longer than a month, the following precautions should be observed:

☐park the car in covered, dry and if possible well-ventilated premises and slightly open the windows;
☐engage a gear and disengage the handbrake;
□disconnect the negative battery terminal and check charge (see paragraph “Battery - Charge and electrolyte level check” in chapter “Maintenance and care”);
□clean and protect the painted parts using protective wax;
□clean and protect the shiny metal parts using special compounds available commercially;
□sprinkle talcum powder on the rubber windscreen and rear window wiper blades and lift them off the glass;

☐cover the car with a cloth or perforated plastic sheet. Do not use sheets of non-perforated plast as they do not allow moisture on the car body to evaporate;
☐inflate tyres to +0.5 bar above the standard specified pressure and check it at intervals;
☐do not drain the engine cooling system.

IMPORTANT Where relevant, switch off the car alarm with the remote control.

This warning light switches on when the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON, but it should switch off after a few seconds.

Insufficienttyrepressure

The warning light switches on when the pressure of one or more tyres falls below a preset level. In this way the TPMS warns the driver that one or more tyres may be dangerously flat and liable to puncture.

IMPORTANT Do not continue driving with one or more flat tyres as handling may be compromised. Stop the car, avoiding harsh braking and steering manoeuvres. Replace the wheel immediately with the space-saver wheel (for versions/markets, where provided) or carry out a repair using the dedicated kit (see "Changing a wheel" in the "In an emergency chapter) and contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

Checktyrepressure

This warning light switches on in the instrument panel to indicate that the tyre pressure is below value recommended to guarantee long tyre life and low fuel consumption. It may also indicate a loss of pressure.

Should two or more tyres be flat, the display will show the indications corresponding to each tyre in sequence.

Restore correct tyre pressures as soon as possible (see “Cold tyre pressures” in the “Technical specifications” chapter).

Tyrepressureunsuitableforspeed

Should you need to travel at a speed higher than 1 km/h, inflate the tyres to the pressures specified in "Tyre pressures" paragraph.

If the TPMS system (for versions/markets where provided) detects that the pressure of one or more tyres is unsuitable for the current speed, the warning light will turn on (together with the message on the display) (see “Tyre pressure low” in this chapter and it will stay on until the car slows down to a speed below the preset threshold.

REPLACINGFUSES

INTRODUCTION

Fuses protect the electrical system: they intervene (blow) in the event of a failure or improper intervention on the system.

When a device does not work, check the condition of its protective fuse: the conductor element A fig. 164 must be intact. If it is not, replace the blow fuse with another with the same amperage (same colour).

B = intact fuse;

C = fuse with damaged filament.

To facilitate fuse replacement, use the pliers D hooked inside the fuse box lid on the dashboard left-hand side.

Refer to the tables on the following pages to identify the protective fuse.

SERVICINGANDMAINTENANCE

SCHEDULEDSERVICING

Correct servicing is essential in guaranteeing a long life for the car under the best conditions.

For this reason, Fiat has planned a series of checks and services at fixed distance intervals and, for versions/markets, where provided, at fixed time intervals, as described in the Scheduled Servicing Plan.

Regardless of the above, it is always necessary to carefully follow the instructions in the Scheduled Servicing Plan (e.g. periodically check level of liquids, tyre pressure, etc.).

Scheduled Servicing is offered by all Fiat Dealerships at fixed time or kilometres/miles intervals. If, during each operation, in addition to the ones scheduled, the need arises for further replacements or repairs, these may be carried out only with your explicit agreement. If your car is used frequently for towing, the interval between one service operation and the next should be reduced.

IMPORTANTINFORMATION

The Scheduled Servicing services 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 following servicing.

For versions equipped with specific supply (e.g. LPG) and/or trim level, in addition to what is described in the following Scheduled Servicing Plan, refer to the relevant additional items in the dedicated supplements.

SCHEDULEDSERVICINGPLAN

The checks listed in the Scheduled Servicing Plan, after reaching 120,000 km/6 years, must be cyclically repeated starting from the first interval, thus following the same intervals as before.

ENGINEOIL

Engineoillevelcheck

Check the oil level a few minutes (about five) after the engine has stopped, with the vehicle parked on level ground.

Take out engine oil dipstick A, clean it and then fully reinsert it, take it out and check that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick.

The range between the MIN and MAX marks corresponds to approximately 1 litre of oil.

Toppinguptheengineoil

If the level of the oil is close to or below the MIN mark, add oil via filler B until the MAX mark is reached.

IMPORTANT If the engine oil level after the check over the MAX level, go to a Fiat Dealership to have the correct level restored.

IMPORTANT After adding or changing the oil, let the engine run for a few seconds and wait a few minutes after switching it off before checking the level.

Engineoilconsumption

The maximum engine oil consumption is approximately 400 grams every 1,000 km.

During the initial period of usage for the vehicle, the engine is bedding in, therefore the engine oil consumption may settle down only after the first 5,000 - 6,000 km.

IMPORTANT The oil consumption depends on driving style and the conditions under which the ca is used.

IMPORTANT Do not add oil with specifications other than those of the oil already in the engine.

BRAKEFLUID

Check that the liquid is at the maximum level (the fluid level in the reservoir must not exceed the MAX mark).

If the fluid level in the tank is too low, undo reserved cap D (see previous pages) and add the fluid described in the chapter "Technical Specifications".

NoteCarefully clean the cap of the reservoir and the surrounding surface.

Take great care to ensure that impurities do not enter the reservoir when the cap is opened.

For topping-up, always use a funnel with integrated filter with mesh equal to or lower than 0.12 mm.

IMPORTANT Brake fluid is hygroscopic (i.e. it absorbs moisture). For this reason, if the car is mainly used in areas with a high degree of atmospheric humidity, the fluid should be replaced at more frequent intervals than specified in the "Scheduled Servicing Plan".

BATTERY

The battery does not require the electrolyte to be topped up with distilled water. A periodic check, which can be carried out at a Fiat Dealership is, however, necessary to check efficiency.

REPLACINGTHEBATTERY

If necessary, replace the battery with another of equivalent quality and the same specifications as the original. Follow the battery manufacturer's instructions for maintenance.

USEFULADVICEFOREXTENDINGTHE LIFEOFYOURBATTERY

To avoid draining your battery and make it last longer, observe the following instructions:

□when you park the car, ensure that the doors, tailgate and bonnet are closed properly, to prevent any roof lights from remaining on inside the passenger's compartment;
□switch off the internal roof lights. The car is, however, equipped with a system which switches the interior lights off automatically;
☐do not keep accessories (e.g. sound system, hazard lights, etc.) switched on for a long time when the engine is not running;
before performing any operation on the electrical system, disconnect the negative battery cable;
□completely tighten the battery terminals.

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.

The battery will also be more at risk of freezing (this can happen as early as -10°C). Refer to the paragraph "Car inactivity" in "Starting and driving" if the car is left parked for a long time.

If, after buying the car, you wish to install electrical accessories which require permanent electrical supply (alarm, etc.) or accessories which influence the electrical supply requirements, contact a Fiat Dealership, whose qualified staff will evaluate the overall electrical consumption.

WHEELSANDTYRES

Before long trips, and every two weeks, check the tyre and space-saver wheel inflation pressure (for versions/markets, where provided). Check the tyres when cold.

While driving the car, the pressure increases under standard conditions: for the correct tyre inflation pressure, see "Wheels" paragraph in the "Technical specifications" chapter.

Incorrect pressure causes abnormal tyre wear fig. 178:

A normal pressure: tread evenly worn;
B low pressure: tread particularly worn at the edges;
C high pressure: tread particularly worn in the centre.

The tyres must be replaced when the tread is less than 1.6 mm thick. In any case, follow the laws in force in the country where you are driving.

IMPORTANT

Take the following precautions to prevent damage to the tyres:

□avoid braking suddenly, racing starts and violent impact against the curb, potholes or other obstacles and driving for extended periods on uneven road surfaces;
☐periodically check that the tyres have no cuts in the side wall, abnormal swelling or irregular tyre wear;
☐ avoid travelling with the car overloaded. If you have a puncture, stop immediately and change the tyre;
☐tyres age even if they are not used much. Cracks the tread rubber and at the sides are a sign of ageing. In any case, if the tyres have been on the car for over 6 years, they should be checked by specialised personnel. Also remember to check the space-saver wheel very carefully (for versions/markets, where provided);

□change the position of the tyres every 10-15 thousand kilometres, keeping them on the same side of the car to avoid inverting the rotation direction;
☐In the case of replacement, always fit new tyres, avoiding those of dubious origin;
□if a tyre is changed, also change the inflation valve.

WINDSCREEN/REARWINDOW WIPER

BLADES

Periodically clean the rubber part using special products; TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is recommended.

Replace the blades if the rubber edge is deformed or worn. In any case, it is advisable to replace them approximately once a year. A few simple precautions can reduce the possibility of damage to the blades:

☐if the temperature falls below zero, make sure that ice has not frozen the rubber against the glass. Use an antifreeze product to release it if required;
☐remove any snow from the glass: in addition to protecting the blades, this prevents effort on the motor and overheating;
☐do not operate the windscreen/rear window wipers on dry glass.

BODYWORK

PROTECTIONFROMATMOSPHERIC AGENTS

The main causes of corrosion are the following:

□atmospheric pollution
☐ salty air and humidity (coastal areas, or hot humid climates);
□seasonal environmental conditions.

The abrasive action of wind-borne atmospheric dust and sand, as well as mud and gravel raised by other vehicles is also not to be underestimated.

On your car, Fiat has adopted the best manufacturing technologies to effectively protect the bodywork against corrosion.

These are the most important:

□Painting products and systems which give the car particular resistance to corrosion and abrasion;
☐Use of galvanised (or pretreated) steel sheets, with high resistance to corrosion;
□spraying the underbody, engine compartment, wheel arch interiors and other parts with highly protective wax products;
□spraying of plastic parts, with a protective function in the more exposed points: underdoor, inner wing, edges, etc;
☐Use of “open” boxed sections to prevent condensation and pockets of moisture from 19g triggering rust inside.

BODYANDUNDERBODYWARRANTY

Your car is covered by warranty against perforation due to rust of any original element of the structure or body.

For the general terms of this warranty, refer to the Warranty Booklet.

ADVICEFORPRESERVINGTHE BODYWORK

Paint

Paintwork does not only serve an aesthetic purpose, but also protects the underlying sheet metal.

Touch up abrasions and scratches immediately to prevent rust formation. Use only original paint products for touch-ups (see "Bodywork paint identification plate" in the "Technical specifications" section).

Normal maintenance of paintwork consists in washing the car: the frequency depends on the conditions and environment where the car is used.

For example, in highly polluted areas, or if the road are spread with salt, it is advisable to wash the car more frequently.

To correctly wash the vehicle, proceed as follows:

☐remove the aerial from the roof to prevent damage to it if the car is washed in an automatic system;

☐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. It should be remembered that the build up of water can damage the car over a period of time;

□wash the body using a low pressure jet of water;

☐wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy solution over the bodywork, frequently rinsing with the sponge;

☐rinse well with water and dry with a jet of air or a chamois leather.

Dry the less visible parts particularly carefully, such as the door frames, bonnet and the headlight frames, where water may stagnate more easily. The car should not be taken to a closed area immediately, but left outside so that residual water can evaporate.

Do not wash the car after it has been left in the sun or with the bonnet hot: this may alter the shine of the paintwork.

External plastic parts must be cleaned in the same way as the rest of the car.

Where possible, do not park under trees; the resinous substance that many species release give the paint a dull appearance and increase the possibility of triggering rusting processes.

IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off immediately and thoroughly as the acid they contain is particularly aggressive.

Glasses

To clean glasses, use specific window cleaner products.

Also use clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or damaging the transparency.

IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window inside gently with a cloth in the direction of the filaments to avoid damaging the heating device.

Enginecompartment

IMPORTANT The washing should take place with engine cold and the ignition key in the STOP position. After the washing operation, make sure that the various protections (e.g. rubber caps and guards) have not been removed or damaged.

Frontheadlights

IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g. petrol) or ketenes (e.g. acetone) for cleaning the plastic lenses of the front headlights.

INTERIORS

Periodically check for water puddles under the mats that could cause the panels to rust.

Replace the worn carpet mats, if present, with genuine products and make sure they remain securely fastened to the passenger compartment carpet. It is not advisable to use non genuine mats that could move whilst driving.

FUELCONSUMPTION

The fuel consumption figures given in the table below are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests laid down by specific European Directives.

The procedures below are followed for measuring consumption:

□urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car;
□ extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerating in all gears, simulating extra-urban use of the car: speed varies between 0 and 120 km/h;
☐ combined fuel consumption: calculated with a weighting of approximately 37% of the urban cycle and 63% of the extra-urban cycle.

IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic conditions, weather conditions, driving style, general condition of the car, trim level/equipment/accessories, use of the climate control system, car 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 Ground Truth image displays a single, solid horizontal line. According to Rule 2 (UNDERSCORE & LINE RULES), this is a stylistic or background line, not a placeholder underscore. Therefore, the OCR result must ignore it and output nothing or only meaningful text. The provided OCR content is "____", which consists of four underscores. This is an incorrect interpretation of the line as a placeholder, violating the rule that stylistic lines must be ignored. The OCR has hallucinated underscores where none should exist based on the GT's visual context. Hence, the OCR result is inconsistent with the Ground Truth.
