WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES

IMPORTANT The warning light switches on in the instrument panel 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 Failure indications displayed are divided into two categories: serious and less serious failures. Serious failures are

indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious failures 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 light

What it means

INSUFFICIENT BRAKE FLUID / ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE ON

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. Restore the brake fluid level, then check that the warning light has switched off.

If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership.

Electric parking brake on

The warning light switches on when the electric parking brake is engaged. Release the electric parking

brake, then check that the warning light has switched off. If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat

Dealership.

EBD FAILURE

The simultaneous switching on of the

Warning light

What it means

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH

The warning light (or the icon on the display on some versions) switches on when the engine is overheated.

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 icon 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 two or three minutes with the engine running and

slightly accelerated to facilitate better coolant circulation, then turn the engine off. Check that the coolant

level is correct as described above.

IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to keep the engine running and slightly accelerated for

a few minutes before turning it off.

workshop.

18)

WARNING

17) The presence of water in the fuel supply system circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular engine operation.

If the symbol is displayed contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to bleed the system. If the above indications come on

immediately after refuelling, water has probably been poured into the tank: switch the engine off immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.

18) Vehicle travel speed should always be adapted to the traffic and weather conditions, and must always comply with traffic regulations. The

engine can be stopped even if the DPF warning light is on: however, repeated interruptions of the regeneration process could cause

premature deterioration of the engine oil. For this reason it is always advisable to wait for the symbol to go off before turning off the engine,

following the instructions above. It is not advisable to complete DPF regeneration with the vehicle stationary.

59

Symbol

What it means

FUEL LEVEL SENSOR FAILURE

The symbol switches on in the event of fuel level sensor failure. Contact a Fiat Dealership.

ENGINE OIL DETERIORATED

(where provided)

Diesel versions: the symbol turns on and is displayed for 3 minute cycles and intervals of 5 seconds until

the oil is changed.

The symbol is displayed until the problem is solved.

Petrol versions: the symbol switches on and then is not displayed when the display cycle is completed.

IMPORTANT After the first indication, each time the engine is started the symbol will continue to switch on

as described above until the oil is changed.

If the symbol flashes, this does not mean that there is a fault on the vehicle, rather it simply reports that it is

now necessary to change the oil as a result of regular use of the vehicle.

The deterioration of engine oil is accelerated by using the vehicle for short drives, preventing the engine

from reaching operating temperature.

Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

19) 20)

WARNING

19) Deteriorated engine oil should be replaced as soon as possible after the symbol is switched on, and never more than 500 km after it first

switches on. Failure to observe the above indications may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the warranty. The switching

on of this symbol is not correlated to the quantity of oil in the engine; therefore if it flashes you do not need to top up the engine oil.

20) If the symbol flashes whilst driving, contact a Fiat Dealership.

60

Symbol

What it means

GENERAL FAILURE

The switching on of this symbol signals engine oil pressure sensor failure. Contact a Fiat Dealership as

soon as possible.

SCHEDULED SERVICING (SERVICE)

The “Scheduled Servicing Plan” includes vehicle maintenance at fixed intervals (refer to the "Maintenance

and care" chapter).

When the next scheduled service is approaching, the symbol will be displayed, followed by the number of

kilometres/miles or days (where provided) left, when the ignition device is turned to MAR.

This is displayed automatically, with ignition device at MAR, 2000 km before servicing or, where provided,

30 days before servicing. It is also displayed each time the ignition device is turned to MAR or, for some

versions, every 200 km. Below this threshold servicing indications are more frequent. The display will be in

km or miles according to the unit of measurement set.

Go to a Fiat Dealership, where the "Scheduled Servicing Plan" operations will be performed and the

message will be reset.

The switching on of this symbol indicates that the clutch pedal must be pressed for starting enablement.

The switching on of this symbol suggests the engagement of a higher gear (upshifting).

The switching on of this symbol suggests the engagement of a lower gear (downshifting).

61

Symbol

What it means

SPEED LIMIT EXCEEDED

The (white) symbol switches on when the speed limit (e.g. 110 km/h) set through the menu of the display is

exceeded (the inner value updates according to the set speed).

For versions/markets, where provided, the (red) symbol switches on when the speed limit set through the

menu of the display is exceeded: for these versions the value is set to 120.
