The enclosed Warranty Booklet lists the services that Fiat offers to its Customers: ❒ the Warranty Certificate with terms and conditions for maintaining its validity; ❒ the range of additional services available to Fiat Customers. Enjoy reading. Happy motoring! This Owner Handbook describes all the versions of the Fiat Ducato. As a consequence, you should only consider the information which is related to the trim level, engine and version that you have purchased. VERY IMPORTANT REFUELLING Only refuel with automotive diesel 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. STARTING THE ENGINE Make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gear lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to MAR-ON and wait for the warning lights and to switch off; turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started. PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL The catalytic converter develops high temperatures during operation. Do not park on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flammable material: fire hazard. RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT The vehicle is fitted with a system that allows 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), visit a Fiat Dealership. They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the vehicle's electrical system can support the required load. SCHEDULED SERVICING Correct maintenance enables the vehicle to perfectly maintain performance and safety characteristics, its environmental friendliness and low running costs over time. THE OWNER MANUAL CONTAINS… ... important information, advice and warnings for correct use, driving safety and maintenance of your vehicle over time. Special attention must be paid to the symbols (safety of persons) (environmental protection) (vehicle integrity).

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 3 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY SYMBOLS THE FIAT CODE SYSTEM Special coloured labels have been attached near or on some of the components of your vehicle. These labels bear symbols that draw your attention to the precautions required when handling the component in question. A plate summarising these symbols can be found under the bonnet fig. 2. This is an electrical engine immobiliser system which increases protection against attempted theft of the vehicle. It is automatically activated when the ignition key is removed. Each key contains an electronic device which modulates the signal emitted during ignition by an antenna built into the ignition device. The modulated signal, which changes each time the engine is started, is the “password”, by means of which the control unit recognises the key and enables to start the engine. STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES OPERATION Each time the vehicle is started turning the ignition key to MAR-ON, the Fiat CODE system control unit sends a recognition code to the engine control unit to deactivate the inhibitor. The recognition code is sent only if the Fiat CODE system control unit has recognised the code transmitted from the key. Each time the ignition key is turned to STOP, the Fiat CODE system deactivates the functions of the engine management control unit. If the code has not been recognised correctly, the warning light turns on accompanied by the related message on the display (see section “Warning lights and messages”). IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 4 fig. 2 F0N0002 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 electronic control unit. Contact the Fiat Dealership to have new keys (up to eight) stored with the code. Warning light switching on while driving ❒ If the warning light switches on, this means that the system is running a self-diagnosis (for example for a voltage drop). ❒ If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership. THE KEYS KNOW YOUR VEHICLE CODE CARD The vehicle is delivered with two copies of the ignition key and with the CODE card fig. 3, which bears the following: A the electronic code; B the mechanical key code to be given to the Fiat Dealership when ordering duplicate keys. IMPORTANT In order to ensure complete efficiency of the electronic devices inside the keys, they should never be exposed to direct sunlight. All the keys and the CODE card must be handed over to the new owner when selling the vehicle. The electronic components inside the key may be damaged if the key is subjected to strong shocks.

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. ALARM INTERVENTION STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 10 The alarm intervenes in the following cases: ❒ wrongful opening of a door or the bonnet (perimeter protection); ❒ when the ignition system is started up (ignition key rotated to MAR-ON); ❒ cutting of the battery leads. 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 cycles. When this is reached the system returns to normal operation. IMPORTANT The engine stop function is guaranteed by the Fiat CODE, which is automatically activated when the ignition key is extracted from the ignition switch. 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. TURNING THE ALARM OFF Press the “door release/load compartment release” button on the key with remote control. The following operations are performed (excluding some markets): ❒ the direction indicators flash briefly twice; ❒ there are two short acoustic signals (beeps); ❒ unlocking of the doors.

It is advisable to switch the internal air recirculation on while standing in queues or in tunnels to prevent the introduction of polluted air. Do not use the function for a long time, particularly if there are many passengers on board, to prevent the windows from misting up. IMPORTANT Internal air recirculation makes it possible to reach the required heating or cooling conditions more quickly depending on the mode selected. Do not use the air recirculation function on rainy/cold days as it would considerably increase the possibility of the windows misting. IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 52 fig. 53 F0N0043 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. Note The system uses R134a refrigerant fluid which does not pollute the environment in the event of accidental leakage. Never use R12 fluid, which is not compatible with the system components. AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL (for versions/markets, where provided) GENERAL INFORMATION The automatic climate control system adjusts the temperature, the quantity and the distribution of the air in the passenger compartment. The temperature control is based on the "equivalent temperature": in other words, the system continuously works to keep the comfort level inside the vehicle constant and to compensate for possible variations in outside conditions, including the sun's rays detected by a dedicated sensor. The automatically controlled parameters and functions are: ❒ air temperature at the vents; ❒ air distribution at the vents; ❒ fan speed (continuous variation of the air flow); ❒ compressor activation (for cooling/dehumidifying the air); ❒ air recirculation. All functions may be changed manually. In other words, you may select one or more functions and change the parameters as required. Automatic control of the manually changed functions will be suspended: the system will override your settings only for safety-related reasons (e.g. risk of misting). Manual selections will always take priority over automatic settings and will be stored until the user switches the system back to automatic operation by pressing the AUTO button again except for the cases in which the system will intervene for particular, safety-related reasons. You can adjust one function manually without affecting the automatic control of the others. The temperature of the air sent is always controlled automatically, depending on the temperature set in the display (except when the system is off or in certain conditions when the compressor is switched off ). The system allows the following parameters and functions to be set or altered manually: air temperature, fan speed (continuous variation); air distribution in seven positions; compressor enablement; fast defrosting/demisting function; air recirculation; switching off the system.

KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 53 USING THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY The system can be started in different ways, but it is advisable to start by pressing the AUTO button and then turning the knob to set the temperature required on the display. The system will start running automatically in this way and the set temperature will be reached as quickly as possible. The system will adjust the temperature, the quantity and the distribution of the air sent into the passenger compartment and, by managing the recirculation function, the activation of the compressor. During fully automatic operation the only manual intervention required is the possible activation of the following functions: ❒ air recirculation, to keep the function always either on or off; ❒ to speed up demisting/defrosting of windscreen, rear window and external rear view mirrors. During fully automatic system operation, you can change the set temperatures, air distribution and fan speed at any time by using the relevant buttons or knobs: the system will automatically change its settings to adjust to the new requirements. During fully automatic operation (FULL AUTO), the word FULL will disappear if the air distribution and/or flow rate and/or engagement of the compressor and/or recirculation settings are changed. In this way, the functions will switch from automatic to manual control until the AUTO button is pressed again. With one or more functions turned on manually, the adjustment of the intake air temperature continues to be managed automatically, except with the compressor switched off: if this is the case, the temperature of the air sent into the passenger compartment cannot be lower than that of the outside air. CONTROLS Air temperature adjustment knob (I) SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE Turn the knob either clockwise or counterclockwise to increase or lower the requested temperature in the passenger compartment. The temperature set is shown on the display. Turn the knob either fully to the right or fully to the left to the extreme HI or LO position to turn the maximum heating or maximum cooling functions on: ❒ HI function (maximum heating): select by turning the temperature knob clockwise beyond the maximum value (32°C). TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 54 fig. 54 F0N0831 This function may be used to heat up the passenger compartment by exploiting the system's potential to the full. In this event, the system stops controlling the temperature automatically and sets the air mixing to maximum heating. The air speed and distribution are fixed. In particular, if the heating fluid is not sufficiently hot, the maximum fan speed does not come on straight away in order to limit the intake of insufficiently hot air to the passenger compartment. All manual settings will be allowed when this function is on. To switch the function off, simply turn the temperature knob counterclockwise and set the required temperature. ❒ LO function (maximum cooling): select by turning the temperature knob anticlockwise beyond the minimum value (16°C). This function may be used to cool down the passenger compartment, exploiting the system's potential to the maximum. In this event, the system stops controlling the temperature automatically and sets the air mixing to maximum cooling. The air speed and distribution are fixed. All manual settings will be allowed when this function is on. To switch the function off, simply turn the temperature knob clockwise and set the required temperature. Air distribution buttons (B) By pressing these buttons, it is possible to set one of the seven possible air distributions manually: Air flow to the windscreen and front side window vents to demist or defrost them. Air flow at central and side dashboard vents to ventilate the chest and the face during the hot season. Air flow to the front and rear footwell vents. Thanks to the natural tendency of hot air to rise, this distribution pattern allows the passenger compartment to warm up as quickly as possible, providing an immediate feeling of warmth. Air flow distributed between footwell vents (hotter air) and central and side dashboard vents (cooler air). This distribution mode is particularly useful in spring and autumn on sunny days. Air flow distributed between the footwell vents and the windscreen and front side window defrosting/demisting vents. This allows an adequate warming of the passenger compartment and prevents the windows from steaming up. Air flow distribution split between the windscreen and front side windows defrosting/ demisting vents and the central and side dashboard vents as well as the footwell vents. This distribution makes it possible to maintain good levels of comfort and keep the passenger compartment sufficiently cool (useful in the summer). KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 55 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 56 Air flow distributed between windscreen and front side window defroster/demister and central and side dashboard vents. This distribution allows good air diffusion and maintains a good level of comfort both in summer and winter. The distribution set is shown by the corresponding LEDs in the selected buttons coming on. To restore automatic control of the air distribution after a manual selection, press the AUTO button. Fan speed adjustment buttons (H) Press the H button to increase or to decrease the fan speed and therefore the amount of air sent into the passenger compartment, though the required temperature remains set. The fan speed is shown by the lit bars on the display: ❒ Maximum fan speed = all the bars lit up; ❒ Minimum fan speed = one bar lit up. The fan can be turned off only if the climate control compressor has been switched off by pressing the F button fig. 54. IMPORTANT To restore automatic control of the fan speed after a manual adjustment, press the AUTO button. IMPORTANT At high vehicle speeds, the dynamic effect may increase the flow of air into the passenger compartment which in this case will not directly correspond to the fan speed bar display. AUTO button (A) (automatic operation) Press the AUTO button to make the system automatically adjust the quantity and distribution of the air introduced into the passenger compartment. All previous manual settings will be cancelled. The message FULL AUTO will appear on the front display in this condition. By manually adjusting at least one of the functions automatically managed by the system (air recirculation, air distribution, fan speed or switching off the air conditioner compressor), the word FULL will disappear from the display, indicating that the system is no longer automatically controlling all the functions (the temperature will still be controlled automatically). IMPORTANT Should the system (after manual settings) no longer be able to guarantee the required temperature set in the passenger compartment, the set temperature value will start flashing to indicate the difficulties the system is experiencing and then the word AUTO will disappear. To restore system automatic control at any time, after one or more manual adjustments, press the AUTO button. Air recirculation on/off button (G) The air recirculation is managed according to the following operating logics: ❒ override on (inside air recirculation always on), indicated by the LED on button G and the symbol on the display; ❒ override off (air recirculation constantly off with air intake from the outside), signalled by the LED in the button switching off and by the symbol in the display disappearing. These operating conditions are obtained by pressing air recirculation button G in sequence. IMPORTANT The engagement of the air recirculation system makes it possible to reach the required heating or cooling conditions faster. It is however not advisable to use recirculation on rainy/cold days as it would considerably increase the possibility of the windows steaming up, especially if the climate control compressor is off. The recirculation is forced off (air is introduced from the outside) when the outside temperature is cold to prevent misting. It is advisable not to use the air recirculation function when the outside temperature is low, because the windows could rapidly steam up. Climate control compressor enablement/off button (F) Press the button to switch the climate control compressor off (if on). The icon on the display will switch off. Press the button when the LED is off to restore automatic system control and use of the compressor. The icon will light up on the display in this case. The system will switch the recirculation off when the compressor is switched off to prevent the windows misting up. Although the system is capable of maintaining the required temperature, the word FULL will disappear from the display. If, on the other hand, it is no longer capable of maintaining the temperature, the letters flash and the word AUTO goes out. IMPORTANT With the compressor off, it is not possible to introduce air cooler than ambient temperature into the passenger compartment. Furthermore, in certain conditions, the windows could mist up rapidly because the air is not dehumidified. The system remembers that the compressor has been switched off, even after the engine has stopped. To restore automatic compressor control, press the √ button again (in this case, the system will only work as a heater) or press the AUTO button. With the compressor switched off, if the outside temperature is higher than the one set, the system is not capable of satisfying this request. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 57 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 58 This is signalled by the target temperature flashing, after which the word AUTO goes out. With the climate control compressor off, the fan speed can be set to zero manually (no bar shown). With the compressor enabled and the engine started, the fan speed may be reduced only to the minimum setting (one bar shown). Button for rapid window demisting/defrosting (D) Press this button and the climate control system will automatically switch on all the functions required for fast windscreen and side window demisting/ defrosting: ❒ switches on climate control compressor when climatic conditions are suitable; ❒ air recirculation off; ❒ maximum air temperature HI in both areas; ❒ sets the fan speed according to the engine coolant temperature to limit the flow of air that is not sufficiently warm to demist the windows; ❒ directs air flow to windscreen and front side windows vents; ❒ heated rear window on. IMPORTANT The rapid demisting/defrosting function for the windows remains on for about 3 minutes from when the engine coolant reaches the appropriate temperature for a rapid demisting of the windows. When this function is active, the LED on the corresponding button and the one on the heated rear window button switch on. The message FULL AUTO goes off on the display. You can only adjust the fan speed and switch the heated rear window off manually when this function is active. To restore the previous operating conditions, simply press button B, air recirculation button G, compressor button F or AUTO button A. Note To guarantee rapid demisting/defrosting, if an additional heater/air conditioner is present (under the front or rear seat on Panorama and Combi versions), if activated, deactivate it using the button F (LED off) located in the control panel F fig. 55. Switching off the system OFF (E) Press button E to switch the climate control system off. The display will go out. The following climate control conditions will be present when the system is off: ❒ display off; ❒ temperature setting not displayed; ❒ air recirculation on, thereby insulating the passenger compartment from the outside (recirculation LED on); ❒ climate control compressor off; ❒ fan off. Press the AUTO button to switch the climate control system back on in full automatic mode. ADDITIONAL HEATER (for versions/markets, where provided) On some versions, an additional heater is also present beneath the driver's seat. The fan for this heater is operated by means of the button F located on the control panel fig. 55. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX fig. 55 F0N0500 59 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY INDEPENDENT SUPPLEMENTARY HEATER (for versions/markets, where provided) The vehicle is available, on request, with two different independent heaters: one fully automatic, the other which can be programmed. AUTOMATIC VERSION STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY The additional heater is turned on in automatic mode when the engine is started and the required outside temperature and coolant conditions are present. Deactivation is always automatic. IMPORTANT During periods with low outdoor temperatures when the device cuts in, check that the fuel level is always higher than the reserve level. Otherwise the device could lock and require the assistance of a Fiat Dealership. PROGRAMMABLE VERSION The additional heater operates completely independently of engine operation and allows the following: ❒ heating the passenger compartment with the engine off ❒ defrosting the windows; ❒ heat the engine coolant and then the engine itself prior to starting. The system consists of: ❒ a diesel burner for heating the water with an exhaust silencer for the combustion gases; ❒ a metering pump connected to the reservoir pipes for supplying the burner; ❒ a heat exchanger connected to the engine cooling system pipes; WARNING SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS The heater burns fuel in the same way as the engine, though to a lesser extent. To prevent poisoning and asphyxiation, the supplementary heater must never be turned on, even for short periods, in closed environments such as a garage or workshops without extraction fans for the exhaust gases. INDEX 60 fig. 56 F0N0150 ❒ a control unit connected to the passenger compartment heating/ventilation system to allow automatic operation; ❒ an electronic control unit for controlling and adjusting the built-in burner; ❒ a digital timer A fig. 56 for turning the heater on manually or for programming the time that it comes on. The additional heater (during winter) heats, maintains the temperature of and circulates engine coolant for a set time period in order to ensure optimum engine and passenger compartment conditions at engine start-up. The heater can operate automatically when programmed with a digital timer or manually by pressing the “immediate heating” button on the timer. After heater activation, either programmed or manual, the electronic control unit operates the liquid circulation pump and ignites the burner in accordance with the preset, controlled procedures. The circulation pump output is also controlled by the electronic control unit in order to minimise the initial heating time. When the system operates, the control unit turns on the passenger compartment heater unit fan at the second speed. The thermal power of the boiler is regulated automatically by the electronic control unit depending on the temperature of the engine coolant. IMPORTANT The heater is equipped with a thermal limiter that cuts off combustion in the case of overheating due to insufficient coolant/coolant leaks. In this case, after repairing the fault in the cooling system and/or topping up the fluid, press the program selection button before turning the heater back on. The heater can turn off spontaneously due to misfiring after start-up or because the flame goes out during operation. In this case, carry out the turning off procedure and try to turn the heater back on. If it still does not work, consult a Fiat Dealership. Activation of the heating system When an automatic climate control system is present, the control unit sets the air temperature and distribution when the heater is turned on from the park position. When a manual heater/climate control is present, to obtain maximum heater efficiency, check that the passenger compartment heating/ventilation temperature adjustment knob is in the 'hot air' position. To prioritise passenger compartment pre-heating, set the air distribution knob to the position. To prioritise windscreen defrosting, set the air position. distribution knob to the To obtain both functions, set the air distribution knob to the position.

Assembly must be performed by qualified personnel. WARNING SAFETY Evenly distribute the load and take into account, when driving, the increased responsiveness of the vehicle to side wind. STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES HEADLIGHTS LIGHT BEAM DIRECTION The correct direction of the headlights is essential for the comfort and safety of the driver and other road users. To ensure the best visibility when travelling with the headlights on, the headlight alignment must be correct. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the headlights checked and adjusted. HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT CORRECTOR Never exceed the maximum permitted loads (see chapter "Technical specifications"). This device works with the ignition key in the MAR-ON position and the dipped headlights on. The vehicle tilts backwards when it is laden, raising the beam. The beams must therefore be realigned in this case. IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 108 fig. 131 F0N0516 Headlight alignment adjustment ABS SYSTEM Press or on the control panel fig. 131. The instrument panel display shows the position in relation to the adjustment set. If you have never driven a vehicle with ABS before, it is advisable to perform a few tests on slippery surface, always in safe conditions and fully complying with the Highway Code of the country where you are driving. Read the following information carefully. IMPORTANT Check the alignment of the light beams each time the weight of the load transported changes. FOG LIGHT ALIGNMENT (for versions/markets, where provided) Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the headlights checked and adjusted. ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN ABROAD The dipped headlights are directed 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. This is an integral part of the braking system, which prevents one or more wheels from locking or slipping regardless of the road surface conditions and braking intensity, ensuring control of the vehicle 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. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES 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. IN AN EMERGENCY SYSTEM INTERVENTION SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 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. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 109 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES MECHANICAL BRAKE ASSIST (emergency braking assistance) (for versions/markets, where provided) This system (which cannot be deactivated) recognises emergency braking conditions according to the speed of operation of the brake pedal and provides an additional hydraulic braking pressure to support that provided by the driver. This allows faster and more powerful operation of the braking system. IMPORTANT When the Mechanical Brake Assist is activated, noises may be heard from the system. This is normal. Anyway, while braking keep the brake pedal depressed. WARNING IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 110 When the ABS cuts in and you feel the brake pedal pulsating, do not raise your foot, but keep it pressed; in doing so you will stop in the shortest amount of space possible depending on the current road conditions. WARNING If the ABS system is activated, this indicates that the traction of the tires on the road is nearing its limit.You must slow down to a speed compatible with the available wheel traction. WARNING The ABS gets the most from the available grip, but it cannot improve it; you should therefore take every care when driving on slippery surfaces and not take unnecessary risks. FAULT INDICATIONS ABS failure This is indicated by the warning light on the instrument panel switching on together with the dedicated message on the display (for versions/ markets, where provided) (see “Warning lights and messages” section). In the case, the braking system will work as normal without the extra capacity offered by the ABS system. Drive carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have the system checked. EBD failure This is indicated by the and warning lights on the instrument panel switching on together with the dedicated message on the display (for versions/markets, where provided) (see “Warning lights and messages” section). In this case, the rear wheels may suddenly lock and the vehicle may swerve when braking sharply. Drive carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have the system checked. WARNING If only the warning light switches on on the instrument panel (with a message on the multifunction display on some versions), stop the car immediately and contact the nearest Fiat Dealership. Fluid leaking from the hydraulic system will compromise the operation of the braking system, whether it is of the conventional type or with ABS. ESP SYSTEM (Electronic Stability Program) (for versions/markets, where provided) This is an electronic system that controls vehicle stability in the event of tyre grip loss, helping to maintain directional control. The ESP system is therefore particularly useful when the grip conditions of road surfaces change. The MSR system (adjustment of the engine braking torque during gear changes) and the HBA system (automatic increase in the braking pressure during emergency braking) are present with ESP, ASR and Hill Holder systems (for versions/markets where provided). KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES SYSTEM INTERVENTION This is indicated by the flashing of the warning light on the instrument panel, to inform the driver that the car is in critical stability and grip conditions. IN AN EMERGENCY System activation SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE The ESP system is automatically activated when the vehicle is started and cannot be deactivated. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 111 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 112 Fault indications HILL HOLDER SYSTEM In the event of a fault, the ESP system will be automatically switched off and the warning light will switch on constantly in the instrument panel along with a message in the multifunction display (for versions/markets where provided) (see “Warning lights and messages” section). The LED in the ASR button will switch on. Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible. It is 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, brake pressed and gearbox 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. When setting off, the ESP system control unit will maintain braking pressure on the wheels until the torque required for starting is attained or, in any case, for a maximum of 2 seconds in order that the right foot can be moved easily from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal. When 2 seconds have elapsed, without any departure having taken place, the system is automatically deactivated, gradually releasing the braking pressure. During this release stage, the typical brake disengagement noise indicating that the vehicle is going to move imminently will be heard. WARNING ESP performance features must not induce the driver to take unnecessary or unfounded risks. Driving style must always be adapted to road conditions, visibility and traffic.The driver is always responsible for road safety. Fault indications ASR SYSTEM (Antislip Regulation) The warning light will switch on in the event of a fault (see “Warning lights and messages”). This is a traction control system that cuts in automatically every time one or both drive wheels slip. 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, it intervenes automatically braking the wheel that is slipping. The action of the ASR system is especially useful in the following conditions: ❒ 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). IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is not a parking brake, therefore do not leave the vehicle without activating the handbrake, switching off the engine and engaging first gear. WARNING For the correct operation of the ESP and ASR systems, the tyres must be the same make and type on all wheels, in perfect condition and, above all, of the type, make and size specified. WARNING For the correct operation of the ESP and ASR systems, the tyres must be the same make and type on all wheels, in perfect condition and, above all, of the type, make and size specified. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 113 MSR system (engine drive regulation) KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY This is an integral part of the ASR system that, in the event of a sudden gear down shift, cuts in and provides torque to the engine thus preventing excessive drive wheel drive which, especially in poor grip conditions, can lead to a loss of stability. WARNING Do not take unnecessary risks, even if your vehicle is fitted with this system. Your driving style must always be suited to the road conditions, visibility and traffic.The driver is always responsible for road safety. Activation/deactivation of the ASR system STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE The ASR system activates automatically each time the engine is started. When travelling, the ASR can be switched off and on again pressing button A fig. 132 located among the controls in the instrument panel. Switching off is shown by the LED in the switch itself switching on together with a message shown in the multifunction display, for versions/markets where provided. 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 automatically switched off and the warning light in the instrument panel will switch on constantly along with a message in the multifunction display (for versions/markets, where provided) (see “Warning lights and messages” section). The LED in the ASR button will light up. In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 114 fig. 132 F0N0077 TRACTION PLUS SYSTEM Traction Plus operation (for versions/markets, where provided) The system is deactivated when starting. To activate the Traction Plus system, press the T+ button fig. 133: the LED on the button switches on. The activation of the Traction Plus system involves the following functions being switched on: ❒ inhibition of the ASR function, to exploit the engine torque fully; ❒ a differential locking effect on the front axle, through the braking system, to improve traction on irregular surfaces. If the Traction Plus system is faulty, the warning light on the instrument panel switches on constantly. Traction Plus is a driving aid, useful for setting off in poor grip conditions (snow, ice, mud, etc.) which allows the drive force to be evenly distributed over the same axle when both wheels are slipping. Traction Plus acts by braking the wheels with poor grip (or those slipping more than the others), thereby transferring the drive force to those which have greater grip on the ground. This function can be activated manually by pressing the T+ button on the dashboard fig. 133 and operates under 30 km/h. Over this speed, it is automatically deactivated (the LED on the button is still on) and it is reactivated again when the speed is below 30 km/h. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX fig. 133 F0N0509 115 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 116 EOBD SYSTEM The EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis) allows continuous diagnosis of emission-related components on the vehicle. It also alerts the driver, by turning on the warning light in the instrument panel (together with relevant message in the multifunction display, for versions/ markets where provided) (see “Warning lights and messages” section), when these components are no longer in peak condition. The aim of the system is to: ❒ monitor system efficiency; ❒ indicate an increase in emissions due to vehicle malfunction; ❒ indicate the need to replace components which have deteriorated. The system also has a diagnosis connector that can be interfaced with suitable instruments, to read the error codes stored in the control unit together with a series of specific parameters for engine operation and diagnosis. This check can also be carried out by traffic control authorities. IMPORTANT After eliminating the failure, to check the system completely, Fiat Dealerships run a bench test and, if necessary, road tests which may also call for a long journey. WARNING If, when the ignition key is turned to the MAR-ON position, the warning light either does not come on or, when driving, it comes on permanently or flashes (along with a message in the multifunction display for versions/markets, where provided), contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible. Operation of the indicator may be verified by traffic control officers using the appropriate equipment. Comply with the laws and regulations of the country where you are driving. PARKING SENSORS The parking sensors are located in the rear bumper fig. 134 and their function is to inform the driver, through an intermittent buzzer, about the presence of obstacles behind the vehicle. ACTIVATION The sensors are automatically activated when reverse gear is engaged. As the obstacle behind the vehicle gets closer to the bumper, the buzzer becomes more frequent. WARNING BUZZER When reverse gear is engaged an intermittent acoustic signal is automatically activated. The acoustic signal: ❒ increases as the distance between the vehicle and the obstacle decreases; ❒ becomes continuous when the distance between the vehicle 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. Detection distances Central operating range: 140 cm ±10 cm Side operating range: 60 cm ±20 cm If several obstacles are detected by the sensors, only the nearest one is considered. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES FAULT INDICATIONS IN AN EMERGENCY Any parking sensor faults will be indicated when reverse is engaged by the warning light in the instrument panel switching on together with the message in the multifunction display, for versions/markets, where provided (see chapter "Warning lights and messages”). SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX fig. 134 F0N0119 117 OPERATION WITH TRAILER KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 118 Parking sensor operation is automatically disabled when the electric cable plug of the trailer is fitted into the vehicle 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 without towing a trailer, it is advisable to contact a Fiat Dealership for the relevant system update operations because the tow hook could be detected as an obstacle by the central sensors. In washing stations, clean sensors quickly keeping the vapour jet/high pressure washing nozzles at 10 cm at least from the sensors. For correct operation, sensors must always be clean from mud, dirt, snow or ice. 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. WARNING Parking manoeuvres however are always the driver’s responsibility.When making these manoeuvres, always make sure that no people (especially children) or animals are present in your manoeuvering space.The parking sensors serve to assist the driver, but must never allow his attention to lapse during potentially dangerous manoeuvres, even those executed at low speeds. GENERAL WARNINGS ❒ When parking, take the utmost care over obstacles that may be above or under the sensors. ❒ Objects close to the vehicle, in certain circumstances are not detected and could therefore cause damage to the vehicle or be damaged. 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 sensor may detect a non-existent obstacle (echo noise) due to mechanical noises, for example when washing the vehicle, in case of 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 by a change in the ride setting (caused by the wear of the shock absorbers, suspension), changing the tyres, overloading the vehicle and carrying out specific tuning operations that require the vehicle to be lowered. ❒ Detection of obstacles in the upper part of the vehicle (particularly in the case of vans or chassis cabs) may not be guaranteed because the system detects obstacles that could strike the lower part of the vehicle. START&STOP SYSTEM INTRODUCTION The Start&Stop device automatically stops the engine each time the vehicle is stationary and starts it again when the driver wants to move off. This improves the efficiency of the vehicle by reducing fuel consumption, the emission of harmful gases and noise pollution. OPERATING MODES Stopping the engine WITH MANUAL GEARBOX With the vehicle stationary, the engine stops with the gearbox in neutral and the clutch pedal released. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES 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.

If the outside temperature is very low, diesel fluidity may become insufficient 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 fuel 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 with the fuel. Pour the additive into the tank before the diesel fuel. STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES OPERATION AT LOW TEMPERATURES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 126 fig. 142 F0N0245 fig. 143 F0N0246 When using or parking the vehicle for a long time in the mountains or cold areas, it is advisable to refuel using locally available diesel fuel. In this case, it is also advisable to keep the tank over 50% full. Only refuel with automotive diesel complying with the European specification EN 590.The use of other products or mixtures may damage the engine beyond repair and consequently invalidate the warranty, due to the damage caused. If you accidentally introduce other types of fuel into the tank, do not start the engine. Empty the tank. If the engine has been run for even an extremely limited amount of time, you must not only drain the fuel tank, but the rest of the supply circuit as well. FUEL TANK CAP To carry out fuelling, open flap A fig. 144 and unscrew cap B; the cap is fitted with a safety device C which fastens it to the flap so it cannot be mislaid. The sealing may cause a slight pressure increase in the tank. A little breathing off, while slackening the cap is absolutely normal. When refuelling, fasten the cap to the device inside the flap as shown in fig. 144. WARNING Do not bring naked flames or lit cigarettes near to the fuel tank opening: fire risk. Keep your face away from the fuel filler to prevent breathing in harmful vapours. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY REFUELLING CAPACITY To fill the tank completely, top up twice after the pump switches off.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX fig. 144 F0N0068 127 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 128 PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF) The following devices are used for reducing diesel fuel engine emissions: ❒ oxidising catalytic converter; ❒ exhaust gas recirculation system (EGR); ❒ particulate filter (DPF) (for versions/markets, where provided). The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechanical filter, integral with the exhaust system, that physically traps particulates present in the exhaust gases of Diesel engines. The diesel particulate filter has been adopted to eliminate almost all particulates in compliance with current / future legal regulations. During normal use of the vehicle, the engine management control unit records a set of data (travel time, type of route, temperatures, etc.) and it will then calculate how much particulate has been trapped by the filter. Since this filter physically traps particulate, it should be regenerated (cleaned) at regular intervals by burning the carbon particles. The regeneration procedure is controlled automatically by the engine management control unit according to the filter conditions and vehicle use conditions. There may be a limited increase in the engine idle speed during the regeneration, a limited increase in fumes and high temperatures at the exhaust. These are not faults; they do not impair vehicle performance or damage the environment. If the dedicated message is displayed, refer to paragraph "Warning lights and messages". WARNING The diesel particulate filter (DPF) reaches high temperatures during operation. Do not park the car on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flammable material: fire hazard. SAFETY SEAT BELTS USING THE SEAT BELTS The belt should be worn keeping the torso straight and rested against the backrest. To fasten the seat belts, grip the tongue A fig. 145 and insert it into the buckle B, until the locking click is heard. On removal, if it jams, let it rewind for a short stretch, then pull it out again without jerking. To unfasten the seat belts, press button C. Guide the seat belt with your hand while it is rewinding, to prevent it from twisting. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE Through the reel, the belt automatically adapts to the body of the passenger wearing it, allowing freedom of movement. The reel may lock up when the vehicle is parked on a steep slope: this is perfectly normal. Furthermore, the reel mechanism locks the belt if it is pulled sharply or in the event of sudden braking, collisions and high-speed bends. WARNING Never press button C fig. 145 when travelling. SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX fig. 145 F0N0069 129 HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE WARNING The height of the seat belts must be adjusted with the vehicle at a standstill. Seat belt with reel for front central place on bench seat The two-seater front bench is equipped with an on-board seat belt (reel on seat) with three anchorage points for the central position fig. 147. To adjust, use button A fig. 146 and raise or lower handle B. Always adjust the seat belt height to the passenger's body: This precaution may considerably reduce the risk of injury in the event of a collision. Correct adjustment is obtained when the belt passes approximately half way between the shoulder and the neck. WARNING After adjustment, always check that the cursor to which the ring is fastened is locked in one of the set positions. Release the grip and push downwards to enable the locking device to click if the grip has not been released in one of the possible positions. fig. 146 F0N0070 fig. 147 F0N0156 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 130 SBR SYSTEM PRETENSIONERS The vehicle is fitted with a Seat Belt Reminder system (SBR), consisting of a buzzer and the flashing warning light on the instrument panel which warns the driver that the seat belt must be fastened. The buzzer can be deactivated (until the next time the engine stops) as follows: ❒ fasten the driver's seat belt; ❒ turn the ignition key to the MAR-ON position; ❒ wait for over 20 seconds and then release one of the seat belts. For permanent deactivation, contact a Fiat Dealership. With a digital display, the SBR system can be reactivated only at a Fiat Dealership. With a multifunction display, the SBR system can also be re-enabled through the setup menu. To increase the protective efficiency of the front seat belts, the vehicle is fitted with pretensioners. These devices, in the event of a violent head-on crash or side impact, rewind the seat belts a few centimetres. In this way, they ensure that the belts fit tightly to the wearer before the restraining action begins. The seat belt locks to indicate that the device has intervened; the seat belt cannot be drawn back up even when guiding it manually. IMPORTANT To obtain the highest degree of protection from the action of the pretensioning device, wear the seat belt tight to the chest and pelvis. A slight discharge of smoke may be produced during the activation of the pretensioner which is not in harmful and does not involve any fire hazard. The pretensioner does not require any maintenance or lubrication. Any changes to their original conditions will invalidate their efficiency. If, due to unusual natural events (floods, sea storms, etc.), the device has been affected by water and mud, it must absolutely be replaced. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 131 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY WARNING The pretensioner may be used only once. After it is triggered, have it replaced at a Fiat Dealership. Consult the data plate in the glove box to check the status of the pretensioners. Go to a Fiat Dealership to have the device replaced when the expiration date approaches. Operations which lead to knocks, vibrations or localised heating (over 100°C for a maximum of 6 hours) in the area around the pretensioners may cause damage or trigger them.These devices are not affected by vibrations caused by irregularities of the road surface or low obstacles such as kerbs, etc. Contact a Fiat Dealership for any assistance. LOAD LIMITERS To increase passenger safety, the front seat belt reels 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 The driver is responsible for respecting (and ensuring that all the other passengers also respect) the local laws in force regarding the use of seat belts. Always fasten the seat belts before starting. Seat belts must also be worn by expectant mothers: the risk of injury in the event of an 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. 148). SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 132 fig. 148 F0N0120 WARNING WARNING The belt must not be twisted.The upper part must pass over the shoulder and cross the chest diagonally.The lower part must adhere to the pelvis (as shown in fig. 149) rather than the abdomen of the passenger. Never use devices (clips, pegs, etc.) to hold the seat belt away from your body. For maximum safety, keep the back of your seat upright, lean back into it and make sure the seat belt fits closely across your chest and pelvis. Always fasten the seat belts on both the front and the rear seats! Travelling without wearing seat belts will increase the risk of serious injury and even death in the event of an accident. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING Removing or otherwise tampering with safety belt and pretensioner components is strictly prohibited. Any operations on these components must be performed by qualified and authorised technicians. Always go to a Fiat Dealership. WARNING If the belt has been sharply pulled, for example as the result of an accident, the safety belt, together with the anchoring devices, the anchoring device mounting screws and the pretensioner must be completely replaced. Even if the belt does not present any exterior signs of wear or damage, it may have lost its restraining properties. fig. 149 WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX F0N0121 133 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SEAT BELTS MAINTENANCE WARNING 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. 150. In general, do not place any objects between the person and belt. WARNING If the belt has been sharply pulled, for example as the result of an accident, the safety belt, together with the anchoring devices, the anchoring device mounting screws and the pretensioner must be completely replaced. Even if the belt does not present any exterior signs of wear or damage, it may have lost its restraining properties. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 134 fig. 150 F0N0122 To maintain the seat belts in efficient conditions, observe the following: ❒ always use the belt with the strap well stretched and never twisted; make sure that it is free to run without obstructions; ❒ replace the belt after an accident of a certain severity even if it does not appear to be damaged. Always replace the belt if the pretensioners were deployed; ❒ to clean the belt, 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. CARRYING CHILDREN SAFELY For optimal protection in the event of a collision, all passengers must be seated and wearing adequate restraint systems. This is even more important for children. This prescription is compulsory in all EC countries according to EC Directive 2003/20/EC. A child's head is larger and heavier than an adult's in proportion to its body, while their muscular and bone structures are not fully developed. Therefore, correct restraint systems are necessary which are different from adult seat belts. The results of research on the best child restraint systems are contained in the European Standard ECE-R44, which enforces the use of restraint systems classified into five groups: Group Weight groups Group 0 up to 10 kg Group 0+ up to 13 kg Group 1 9-18 kg Group 2 15-25 kg Group 3 22-36 kg As you can see, the groups overlap partly and, in fact, there are devices on sale that cover more than one weight group. All restraint devices must bear the type-approval data along with the control mark on a label firmly secured to the child seat which must never be removed. Over 1.50 m in height, from the point of view of restraint systems, children are considered as adults and wear the seat belts normally. Lineaccessori Fiat offers child restraint systems for each weight group. These devices are recommended, having been specifically designed for Fiat vehicles. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING Do not place a cradle seat facing backwards on the front seat if the passenger side air bag is on. Deployment of the air bag in an accident could cause fatal injuries to the baby regardless of the severity of the collision. It is advisable to always carry children in a child seat on the rear seat, which is the most protected position in the event of a collision. If you need to carry a child on the front passenger seat in a cradle seat facing backwards, the passenger side air bags (front and side bags, for versions/markets, where provided) must be deactivated using the setup menu. It is important to check the performed deactivation on the warning light on the instrument panel.The passenger seat must also be slid back as far as possible in order to avoid the child seat from coming into contact with the dashboard. WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 135 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY GROUP 0 and 0+ GROUP 1 Babies up to 13 kg must be carried facing backwards on a cradle seat, which, supporting the head, does not induce stress on the neck in the event of sharp decelerations. The cradle is restrained by the vehicle's seat belts, as shown in fig. 151 and it must restrain the child in turn with its own belts. Children from 9 kg to 18 kg in weight can be carried facing forwards if the child seat is fitted with a front cushion, through which the vehicle's seat belt restrains both child and seat fig. 152.

KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 143 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 144 FRONT AIR BAGS The vehicle is provided with front air bags for the driver and the passenger. The front driver / passenger air bags have been designed to protect the occupants in the event of head-on crashes of medium-high severity, by placing the cushion between the 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. An electronic control unit causes the bag to inflate in the event of a head-on crash. The bag will inflate instantaneously placing itself between the front occupants body and the structures which could cause injury. It will deflate immediately afterwards. Driver and passenger front air bags are not a replacement of but complementary to the belts, which you are recommended to always wear, as specified by law in Europe and most non-European countries. The volume of the front air bags at maximum inflation fills most of the space between the steering wheel and the driver and between the dashboard and the passenger. 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 cushion is reduced in such a case. Front air bags may not activate in the following situations: ❒ frontal impacts against highly deformable objects not involving the front surface of the vehicle (e.g. wing collision against guard rail, etc.); ❒ jamming of the vehicle underneath other vehicles or protective barriers (e.g. underneath a truck or a guard rail); in this case, the bags would offer no additional protection with respect to the seat belt and their deployment is unnecessary. Lack of deployment in such cases is consequently not the sign of a fault. WARNING Do not apply stickers or other objects to the steering wheel, the dashboard in the passenger side air bag area and the seats. Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the passenger side of the dashboard since they could interfere with correct inflation of the passenger air bag and also cause serious injury to the passengers. The air bags are not deployed in the event of minor frontal collisions (for which the restraining action of the seat belts is sufficient). Safety belts must always be worn. In the event of frontal collisions they guarantee correct positioning of the passenger. FRONT DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG It consists of an instantly inflating bag contained in a special recess in the centre of the steering wheel fig. 158. FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG (for versions/markets, where provided) This consists of an instantly inflating bag contained in a special recess in the dashboardfig. 159: this bag has a larger volume than that of the driver. WARNING Do not arrange cradle child seats facing backwards if the passenger's air bag is on. Deployment of the air bag in an accident could cause fatal injuries to the child. Always deactivate the passenger air bag when placing a child seat on the front seat.The passenger seat must also be slid back as far as possible in order to avoid the child seat from coming into contact with the dashboard.Though not required by law, we recommend that you reactivate this air bag as soon as the child no longer needs to be transported in the vehicle's front seat.

The instrument panel warning light will stay on constantly until the passenger's front air bag and the Side Bag for chest protection are reactivated (for versions/markets where provided). IMPORTANT To manually deactivate the passenger side front air bag and side bag for chest protection (for versions/markets where provided), refer to section "Knowing your car", paragraph “Multifunction display”. SIDE BAGS The vehicle is fitted with front side bags for driver and passenger (for versions/markets where provided) for protecting the chest and window bags (for versions/markets where provided) for protecting front and rear passengers' heads. Side bags (for versions/markets where provided) 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 vehicle. Non-activation of side bags in other types of collisions (front collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc...) is not a system malfunction. An electronic control unit causes the bags to inflate in the event of a side-on collision. The bags inflate instantaneously placing themselves between the occupants' bodies and the structures which could cause injury. They deflate immediately afterwards. Side bags (for versions/markets where provided) are not a replacement of but complementary to the belts, which you are recommended to always wear, as specified by law in Europe and most non-European countries. FRONT SIDE BAGS FOR CHEST PROTECTION (for versions/markets, where provided) SIDE AIR BAGS FOR HEAD PROTECTION (WINDOW BAGS) (for versions/markets, where provided) Housed in the seats' backrests fig. 160, they consist of an instantly inflating bag designed to protect the occupants' chest and pelvis zone in the event of a side impact of medium-high severity. They consist of two curtain bags, one on the right and the other on the left side of the vehicle, located behind the side coverings of the roof and covered by specific finishing fig. 161. Window bags are designed to protect the head of front and rear occupants in the event of side crash, thanks to the wide bag inflation surface. IMPORTANT In the event of a side-on crash, the system offers best protection if you keep a correct position on the seat because this allows the side bags to inflate correctly.

IMPORTANT A small amount of dust will be released when the air bags are deployed. The dust is not harmful and does not indicate the beginning of a fire. Furthermore, the surface of the deployed bag and the interior of the vehicle may be covered in a dusty residue: this may irritate your skin and eyes. Wash with mild soap and water in the event of exposure. The expiration dates of the explosive charge and the clock wire are shown on a label contained in the glove box. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the devices replaced when the expiry date approaches. IMPORTANT Should an accident occur in which any of the safety devices are activated, take the vehicle to a Fiat Dealership to have the activated devices replaced and to have the whole system checked. Every control, repair and replacement operation concerning the air bags must only be carried out at a Fiat Dealership. If you are having the vehicle scrapped, have the system deactivated at a Fiat Dealership first. If the vehicle changes ownership, the new owner must be informed of how to use the air bags and the above warnings and also be given this "Owner Handbook". IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front air bags and front side bags are deployed differently according to the type of collision. Failure to deploy of one of the devices does not necessarily indicate a system malfunction. WARNING Never rest your head, arms or elbows on the doors, on the windows or in the window bag area as this could cause injuries during the inflation phase. WARNING Never lean your head, arms or elbows out of the window. GENERAL WARNINGS WARNING If when turning the key to MAR-ON the warning light does not turn on or if it stays on when travelling (together with the message on the multifunction display, for versions/markets where provided), there could be a fault in the safety systems; in this event, air bags or pretensioners may not trigger in the case of impact or, in a lower number of cases, they could be triggered accidentally. Contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked. WARNING Do not cover the backrest of the front or rear seats with covers which are not suitable for use with side bags. WARNING Always drive with both hands on the steering wheel so that, if the air bags must be deployed, they may do so freely. Do not drive with your body bent forward. Keep your back straight against the backrest. WARNING Air bags may be deployed if another vehicle crashes into the vehicle if the key is inserted and at MAR-ON even if the engine is not running when the vehicle is stationary. For this reason, children must never sit on the front seat, even if the vehicle is not moving. On the other hand, if the key is inserted in STOP position, none of the safety devices (air bags or pretensioners) will be deployed in the event of impact. Non-deployment of these devices does not indicate a system malfunction. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE WARNING 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 air bag is deployed. WARNING If your vehicle has been subject to theft, attempted theft, vandalism, or flooding, see your Fiat Dealership to have the air bag system inspected. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 149 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS WARNING When the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON, the warning light (with passenger's front air bag activated) turns on and flashes for a few seconds to remind you that the passenger's air bag will be deployed in a crash, after which it should go off. WARNING Do not wash the seats with water or pressurised steam (wash by hand or at automatic seat washing stations). WARNING The front air bag is designed to be deployed for impacts of a greater intensity than for the pretensioners. For impacts whose intensity falls between the two levels, normally, only the pretensioners will be activated. WARNING Do not affix rigid objects to the garment hooks or support handles. INDEX 150 WARNING The airbag does not replace seat belts but increases their efficiency. Furthermore, since front airbags are not deployed in low-speed frontal impacts, side impacts, rear shunts or roll-overs, the passengers are protected only by the seat belts which must therefore be fastened at all times. STARTING AND DRIVING STARTING THE ENGINE The vehicle is fitted with an electronic engine lock device: if the engine fails to start, see the paragraph “The Fiat CODE system” in section “Know your vehicle”. It is advisable not to demand maximum performance from your vehicle (e.g. excessive acceleration, long distances at high speeds, excessive intense braking, etc.) during the initial period of use. When the engine is switched off never leave the key turned to MAR-ON to prevent useless current absorption from draining the battery. WARNING It is dangerous to run the engine in enclosed areas.The engine takes in oxygen and releases carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and other toxic gases. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE WARNING Remember that the brake servo and power steering are not operational until the engine has been started, therefore much effort than usual is required on the brake pedal and steering wheel. SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING PROCEDURE Proceed as follows: ❒ ensure that the handbrake is up; ❒ put the gear lever into neutral; ❒ turn the ignition key to MAR-ON: the warning lights and on the instrument panel will turn on; ❒ wait for the warning lights and to switch off. The hotter the engine is, the quicker this will happen; ❒ press the clutch pedal down to the floor without touching the accelerator; ❒ turn the ignition key to AVV as soon as warning light switches off. Waiting too long will waste the work done by the glow plugs. Release the key as soon as the engine starts. WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 151 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 152 If the engine does not start at the first attempt, return the ignition key to STOP before repeating the procedure. If, when the ignition key is at MAR-ON the warning light remains lit, turn the key to STOP and then back to MAR-ON; if the warning light remains lit, try with the other keys provided with the car. IMPORTANT Go to a Fiat Dealership immediately if warning light stays on constantly on the instrument panel. WARMING UP THE ENGINE JUST AFTER IT HAS STARTED Proceed as follows: ❒ Drive off slowly, letting the engine turn at medium revs. Do not accelerate abruptly; ❒ Do not demand full performance at first. Wait until the engine coolant temperature gauge starts moving. IMPORTANT Never leave the ignition key in MAR-ON position when the engine is stopped. Remember that the brake servo and power steering are not operational until the engine has been started, so you need to apply much more force than usual to the brake pedal and steering wheel. Warning light will flash for 60 seconds after starting or during prolonged cranking to indicate a fault with the glow plug heating system. Use the vehicle normally if the engine starts, but go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible. Never bump start the engine by pushing, towing or coasting downhill.This could cause fuel to flow into the catalytic converter and damage it beyond repair. STOPPING THE ENGINE PARKING Turn the ignition key to STOP while the engine is idling. Proceed as follows: ❒ Stop the engine and engage the handbrake; ❒ engage a gear (on a slope, engage first gear if the car is facing uphill or reverse if it is facing downhill) and leave the wheels steered. If the vehicle is parked on a steep slope, it is advisable to block the wheels with a wedge or stone. Do not leave the key in the ignition as this drains the battery. Always remove the key when you leave the car. A quick burst on the accelerator before turning off the engine serves absolutely no practical purpose, it wastes fuel and is especially damaging to turbocharged engines. In some cases, when the engine switches off, the fan could start for max. 120 seconds. WARNING Never leave children unattended in the vehicle. Always remove the ignition key when leaving the vehicle and take it out with you. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 153 HANDBRAKE KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES The handbrake lever is located to the left of the driver's seat fig. 162. Pull the lever upwards to engage the handbrake and ensure that the vehicle does not move. Four or five notches are normally sufficient to brake the vehicle on flat ground, while nine or ten may be necessary on a steep slope with the vehicle loaded. IMPORTANT If this is not the case, contact a Fiat Dealership to have the handbrake adjusted. When the handbrake is on and the ignition key is at MAR-ON, the instrument panel warning light will come on. Proceed as follows to release the handbrake: ❒ slightly lift the handbrake and press release button A; ❒ keep button A pressed and lower the lever. The warning light in the instrument panel will go out. Press the brake pedal when carrying out this operation to prevent the vehicle from moving accidentally. IMPORTANT Apply the handbrake lever only when the vehicle is at a standstill or with the vehicle in motion only in the event of a failure in the hydraulic system. If exceptional use is made of the handbrake with the vehicle in motion, moderate traction is advisable in order not to cause locking of the rear end with consequent swerving of the vehicle. IN AN EMERGENCY If the vehicle is equipped with selflevelling air suspension, always check that there is sufficient space above the roof and around the vehicle when parking. Indeed, the vehicle could raise (or lower) automatically depending on load or temperature changes. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 154 fig. 162 F0N0073 USING THE GEARBOX WARNING To engage the gears, press the clutch pedal fully and put the gear lever into the required position (the diagram is shown on the knob fig. 163). To engage 6th gear (where provided), operate the lever by pressing it towards the right in order to avoid engaging 4th gear by mistake. The action is similar for shifting from 6th gear to 5th gear. Press the clutch pedal fully to change gears correctly. It is therefore essential that there is nothing under the pedals: make sure the mats are lying flat and do not get in the way of the pedals. IMPORTANT Reverse may only be engaged when the vehicle is at a standstill. 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. To engage reverse R from neutral, proceed as follows: raise ring A under the knob and at the same time move the gear lever to the right and then backwards. 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.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 control could cut in, interpreting the incorrect driving style as a fault. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX fig. 163 F0N0074 155 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 156 LOADING ADVICE The Fiat Ducato version that you are using has been designed and type approved on the basis of certain maximum weights (see "Weights" table in the "Technical Data" chapter): kerb weight, payload, total weight, maximum weight on front axle, maximum weight on rear axle, towable weight. Each of these must be strictly observed and MUST NEVER BE EXCEEDED in any case. In particular, ensure that you never exceed the maximum permitted weights on the front and rear axles when arranging the load on the vehicle (particularly if the vehicle is equipped with a specific trim level). IMPORTANT The maximum permitted load on the floor fastenings is 500 kg; the maximum permitted load on the side panel is 150 kg. WARNING Irregular trajectories and abrupt braking may cause sudden movements of the load with consequent situations of hazard for the driver and passengers: before setting off, secure the load tightly using the appropriate hooks on the floor and use steel cables, ropes or chains strong enough to hold the items to be secured. WARNING If a vehicle is parked on a very steep gradient or with a side gradient, opening the rear door or side door could cause any unsecured items to emerge suddenly. IMPORTANT For versions with right and left side flaps, it is advisable to reposition the release lever in the closed position before lowering the sides. WARNING If you wish to carry petrol in a reserve tank, observe the legal restrictions and only use a tank that is type approved and properly secured to the load anchorage eyebolts. However, by doing so, you increase the risk of fire in the event of an accident. In addition to these general precautions, some simple precautions can improve driving safety, travelling comfort and vehicle durability: ❒ distribute the load evenly over the floor: if it is necessary to concentrate it in a single area, choose an area mid-way between both axles; ❒ remember that the lower the load, the lower the vehicle's centre of gravity, making for a safer drive: therefore always position the heaviest goods lower down; ❒ lastly, remember that the vehicle's dynamic behaviour is affected by the weight transported: in particular, the stopping distances are longer, especially at high speed. SAVING FUEL Some useful tips are given below for fuel saving and reducing harmful emissions of CO2 and other pollutants (nitrogen oxides, unburnt hydrocarbons, Particulate Matter (PM) etc.). GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS The general factors that affect fuel consumption are listed below. Vehicle maintenance Have checks and adjustments on the vehicle carried out in accordance with the “Scheduled Servicing Plan”. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES Tyres Check the tyre pressure at least once every 4 weeks: if the pressure is too low, consumption levels increase as resistance to rolling is higher. Unnecessary loads Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight of the vehicle (especially when driving in town) and its geometry greatly affect fuel consumption and stability. IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 157 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY Roof rack/ski rack DRIVING STYLE Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof after use. These accessories decrease aerodynamic penetration of the vehicle and have a negative effect on fuel consumption. When transporting particularly large objects, use a trailer if possible. The main driving styles that affect fuel consumption are listed below. Electrical devices STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES Only use electrical devices for the amount of time needed. 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). Climate control IN AN EMERGENCY Air conditioning leads to higher fuel consumption (on average up to +20%). If the temperature outside permits, try and use the ventilation only. Starting Do not warm the engine with the vehicle at a standstill or at idle or high speed: under these conditions the engine warms up much more slowly, increasing consumption and emissions. It is therefore advisable to move off immediately, slowly, avoiding high speeds: in this way the engine will warm up more quickly. Unnecessary actions Avoid revving up when at traffic lights or before stopping the engine. This and also double declutching is absolutely pointless on modern cars and also increases consumption and pollution. Gear selection SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 158 Devices for aerodynamic control The use of non-certified devices for aerodynamic control may adversely affect air drag and fuel consumption. Use a higher gear as soon as traffic and road conditions allow. Using a low gear for faster acceleration will increase consumption. In the same way improper use of a high gear increases consumption, emissions and engine wear. Maximum speed Traffic and road conditions 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. Rather high fuel consumption is caused by heavy traffic, for instance when travelling in a queue with frequent use of low gears or in large towns with many traffic lights. Winding mountain roads and rough road surfaces also adversely affect consumption. Acceleration Sudden acceleration has a very negative effect on fuel consumption and emissions: accelerate gradually. CONDITIONS OF USE The main usage conditions that negatively affect fuel consumption are listed below. Cold starting Short distances and frequent cold start-ups will prevent the engine from reaching optimal running temperature. Consequently, both consumption (from +15 to +30% on urban cycle ) and emissions will increase. Stops in traffic During prolonged stops (e.g. level crossings) the engine should be switched off. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 159 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 160 TOWING TRAILERS IMPORTANT NOTES The vehicle must be provided with a type-approved tow hook and adequate electrical system to tow caravans or trailers. Installation should be carried out by specialised personnel who will issue the required papers for travelling on roads. Fit 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 relative to the overall weight of the trailer. Engage a low gear when driving downhill, rather than constantly using the brake. The weight of the trailer on the vehicle tow hook will reduce the loading capacity of the vehicle by the same amount. Consider the weight of the trailer fully laden, including accessories and luggage, to make sure you do not exceed the maximum towable weight (shown on the vehicle registration document). Respect the speed limits specific to each country for vehicles towing trailers. In any case, the maximum speed must not exceed 100 km/h. You are advised to fit a suitable stabiliser to the trailer drawbar. WARNING The ABS device with which the vehicle may be equipped will not control the braking system of the trailer. Particular caution is required on slippery roads. WARNING Never modify the braking system of the vehicle to control the trailer brake. The trailer braking system must be fully independent from the hydraulic system of the vehicle. INSTALLING THE TOW HOOK The towing device should be fixed to the body by specialised personnel in accordance with any additional information supplied by the manufacturer of the device. The towing device must meet current regulations with reference to Directive 94/20/EEC and subsequent amendments. For any version the towing device used must match 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 fixed to the towing device, and a special control unit for external trailer light control must be installed on the vehicle. For the electrical connection, 7 or 13 pin 12 V DC connections are to be used (CUNA/UNI and ISO/DIN Standards). Follow the instructions provided by the vehicle manufacturer and/or the tow hitch manufacturer. Any electric brake or winch should be powered directly by the battery through a cable with a cross-section of no less than 2.5 mm2. 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 a preset control unit with battery cable no less than 2.5 mm2. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY IMPORTANT The trailer tow hook contributes to the length of the vehicle. When installing on long wheelbase versions, it is only possible to install removable tow hooks because the total vehicle length limit of 6 metres is exceeded. If no trailer is fitted, the hook must be removed from the attachment base and it must not exceed the vehicle's original length. STARTING AND DRIVING IMPORTANT If you wish to leave the tow hook fitted without towing a trailer, it is advisable to contact a Fiat Dealership for the relevant system update operations because the tow hook could be detected as an obstacle by the central sensors. IN AN EMERGENCY WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 161 Installation diagram for Van versions fig. 164 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 162 The tow hook structure must be fastened in the points shown by the symbol Ø using a total of 6 M10x1.25 screws and 4 M12 screws. The internal back plates must be at least 5 mm thick. MAX LOAD ON BALL: 100/120 kg according to the payload (see “Weights” table in the “Technical data” section). WARNING After fitting, screw holes must be sealed to prevent a exhaust gas inlet. To install a tow hook, the bumpers must be trimmed as described in the supplier's installation kit.

The performance of these tyres is considerably reduced when the tread depth is less than 4 mm. Replace them in this case. Due to their specific features, the performance of snow tyres is much lower than that of normal types in normal conditions or long motorway stretches. 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 vehicle (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 good driveability. Remember that you should not change the rotation direction of the tyres. WARNING 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. You should, however, always stick to the speed limits of the highway code. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 165 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES SNOW CHAINS The use of snow chains should be in compliance with local regulations. The snow chains may be applied only onto the front wheel tyres (drive wheels). Use of Lineaccessori Fiat snow chains is recommended. Check the tension of the snow chains after the first few metres have been driven. IMPORTANT With snow chains, use the accelerator with extreme care to prevent, or to limit as much as possible, slipping of the driving wheels that could cause chain breakage resulting in damage to the car body or mechanical components. IMPORTANT Use low-clearance snow chains. IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 166 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 vehicle and the roadbed. PROLONGED VEHICLE INACTIVITY If the vehicle needs to be off the road for longer than one month, the following precautions must be taken: ❒ park the vehicle indoors in a dry and, if possible, well-ventilated place; ❒ engage a gear; ❒ check that the handbrake is not engaged; ❒ disconnect the negative battery terminal and check the battery charge. Repeat this check once every three months during storage. Recharge if the optical indicator shows a dark colour without the central green area (see "Battery recharging" in the section "Dashboard and controls"); If the vehicle is equipped with a battery disconnection function (disconnector), see the description of the procedure in the "Controls" paragraph in the "Dashboard and controls" section; ❒ 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; ❒ slightly open the windows; ❒ cover the vehicle with a piece of fabric or perforated plastic sheet. Do not use compact plastic tarpaulins, which prevent humidity from evaporating from the surface of the vehicle; ❒ inflate tyres to +0.5 bar above the standard specified pressure and check it at intervals; ❒ if you don’t disconnect the battery from the electric system, check its charge every month and recharge it if the optical indicator shows a dark colour without the central green area; ❒ do not drain the engine cooling system. IMPORTANT If the vehicle is equipped with an alarm system, switch off the vehicle alarm with the remote control.

The warning light turns on when the engine is overheated. If the warning light switches on, proceed as follows: ❒ When driving normally: stop the car, switch off the engine and check that the coolant 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 reservoir cap. Top up with coolant, making sure that the level of fluid is between the MIN and MAX references on the reservoir. Also check visually for leaks. If, when restarting, the warning light switches on again, contact a Fiat Dealership. ❒ If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions (e.g. towing trailers uphill or fully loaded): slow down and, if the light stays on, stop the vehicle. Wait for 2 or 3 minutes with the engine running and slightly accelerated to further favour the coolant circulation. Then stop the engine. Check correct fluid level in the reservoir as described above. IMPORTANT Under severe use of the car, it is advisable to keep the engine on and slightly accelerated for a few minutes before switching it off.

Insufficient engine oil pressure The warning light switches on constantly, together with a message (for versions/markets, where provided) on the display, when the system detects that engine oil pressure is too low. WARNING If the warning light turns on when the vehicle is travelling (on certain versions together with the message on the display) stop the engine immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership. 2. Engine oil deteriorated (MultiJet versions with DPF only) The warning light starts to flash together with a message on the display (for versions/markets, where provided) when the system detects that the engine oil has deteriorated. If the warning light flashes, this does not mean that the vehicle is faulty, but simply informs the driver that it is now necessary to change the engine oil as a result of regular vehicle use. If the oil is not changed, when a second deterioration threshold is reached, the warning light also switches on in the instrument panel and the engine operation is limited to 3000 rpm. If the oil is still not changed, when a third deterioration threshold is reached, the engine is limited to 1500 rpm to avoid damage. To avoid damaging the engine it is advisable to change the engine oil when the warning light flashes. Contact a Fiat Dealership. Remember that the deterioration of the engine oil is accelerated by: – mainly town use of the vehicle which makes the DPF regeneration process more frequent – use of the vehicle for short trips, preventing the engine from reaching operating temperature – repeated interruption of the regeneration process, signalled by the DPF warning light coming on. Deteriorated engine oil should be replaced as soon as possible after the warning light comes on, and never more than 500 km after it first switches on. Failure to observe the above may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the warranty. Remember that the operation of this warning light is not related to the amount of oil in the engine. Therefore, never top up with oil when the light starts flashing.

This is why Fiat has planned a series of checks and maintenance operations every 48,000 km depending on the engine version. The scheduled servicing does not, however, cover all the needs of the vehicle; also during the initial period, before the 48,000 km service and between one service and the next, ordinary care such as systematic fluid level checks with top ups and tyre pressure checks remain necessary. IMPORTANT The Scheduled Servicing services are set out by the Manufacturer. Failure to have them carried out may invalidate the warranty. Scheduled Servicing is performed by all Fiat Dealerships, at pre-established times. If, during any service, the need arises for additional replacements or repairs, these may be carried out only with the explicit agreement of the Customer. IMPORTANT It is advisable to inform a Fiat Dealer of any small operating irregularities without waiting for the next service. The interval between scheduled services must be reduced if your vehicle is used frequently for towing trailers.

Check that the level is within the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick B fig. 228 - fig. 229 - fig. 230. The range between the MIN and MAX marks corresponds to about 1 litre of oil. If the oil level is close to or actually below the MIN. mark, pour in the prescribed oil through the filler A fig. 228 - fig. 229 - fig. 230, until it reaches the MAX mark. The oil level must never exceed the MAX mark. The maximum engine oil consumption is usually 400 grams every 1000 km. When the vehicle is new, the engine needs to be run in, therefore the engine oil consumption can only be considered stabilised after the first 5,000 – 6,000 km. IMPORTANT The oil consumption depends on driving style and the conditions under which the vehicle is used. 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. IMPORTANT Always top up using engine oil of the same specifications as that already in the engine.

Remember that the fan may start up if the engine is hot: this could injure you. Scarves, ties and other loose clothing might be pulled by moving parts. The used engine oil and the filter that has been replaced contain substances that are harmful to the environment.To change the oil and filters, we advise you to contact a Fiat Dealership. ENGINE COOLANT The coolant level must be checked when the engine is cold and must be between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir. If the level is low, slowly pour a mixture of 50% demineralised water and 50% PARAFLUUP by PETRONAS LUBRICANTS through the filler neck A fig. 231 - fig. 232 until the level is close to MAX. A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLUUP and distilled water gives freeze protection up to –35°C. For particularly harsh climate conditions, a mixture of 60% PARAFLUUP and 40% demineralised water is recommended. PARAFLU UP antifreeze is used in the engine cooling system. Use fluid of the same type as that contained in the cooling system for any top-ups. PARAFLUUP cannot be mixed with any other type of fluid. If this happens, do not start the engine and contact a Fiat Dealership.

WARNING When performing any operation on the battery or near it, always protect your eyes with special goggles. USEFUL ADVICE FOR EXTENDING THE LIFE OF YOUR BATTERY To avoid draining your battery and make it last longer, observe the following instructions: ❒ when you park the vehicle, 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 all roof lights inside the vehicle: the vehicle is however equipped with a system which switches all internal 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 is also more prone to the risk of freezing (at temperatures as high 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 vehicle, you want to install electric accessories which require permanent electric supply (alarm, etc.) contact a Fiat Dealership whose qualified personnel, in addition to suggesting the most suitable devices from the Lineaccessori Fiat, will evaluate the overall electric absorption, checking whether the vehicle's electrical system is capable of withstanding the load required, or whether it should be integrated with a more powerful battery. Since these devices continue absorbing energy even when the engine is off, they gradually run down the battery. IMPORTANT If a tachograph is fitted, if the vehicle is parked for a long period of 5 days, it is advisable to disconnect the negative battery terminal to maintain its charge. If the vehicle is equipped with a battery disconnection function (disconnector), see the description of the procedure in the "Controls" paragraph in the "Know your vehicle" section. WHEELS AND TYRES Check the pressure of each tyre, including the space-saver wheel, every two weeks and before long journeys. The pressure should be checked with the tyre rested and cold. It is normal for the pressure to increase when the vehicle is used; for the correct tyre inflation pressure, see “Wheels” in the “Technical specifications” section. Incorrect pressure causes abnormal tyre wear fig. 240: 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. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 241 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY IMPORTANT NOTES ❒ As far as possible, avoid sharp braking and screech starts. Be careful not to hit the kerb, potholes or other hard obstacles. Driving for long stretches over bumpy roads can damage the tyres; ❒ periodically check that the tyres have no cuts in the side wall, abnormal swelling or irregular tyre wear. Contact a Fiat Dealership if required; ❒ avoid overloading the car when travelling: this may cause serious damage to the wheels and tyres; ❒ if a tyre is punctured, stop immediately and change it to avoid damage to the tyre, the rim, suspensions and steering system; ❒ tyres age even if they are not used much. Cracks in the tread and on the sidewalls are a sign of ageing. Have the tyres checked by skilled personnel if they have been fitted for longer than six years. WARNING Remember that the road holding qualities of your vehicle also depend on the correct inflation pressure of the tyres. WARNING If the pressure is too low the tyre overheats and can be seriously damaged. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS WARNING Do not switch tyres from the right­hand side of the vehicle to the left­hand side, and vice versa. INDEX 242 Remember to check the spare wheel very carefully; ❒ In the case of replacement, always fit new tyres, avoiding those of dubious origin; ❒ If a tyre is changed, also change the inflation valve; ❒ to allow even wear between the front and rear tyres, it is advisable to change them over every 10-15 thousand kilometres, keeping them on the same side of the vehicle so as not to reverse the direction of rotation. fig. 240 F0N0111 WARNING Never submit alloy rims to repainting treatments requiring the use of temperatures exceeding 150°C.The mechanical properties of the wheels could be impaired. RUBBER HOSES As far as the brake system and fuel system rubber hoses are concerned, follow the “Scheduled Servicing Plan” in this section carefully. Ozone, high temperatures and a prolonged lack of fluid in the system may cause hardening and cracking of the hoses, which could result in leaks. Careful checking is therefore necessary. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 243 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS WINDSCREEN 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 a de-icing 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 over-heating; ❒ do not operate the windscreen and rear window wipers on dry glass. Replacing the wiper blades Proceed as follows: ❒ raise the windscreen wiper arm A fig. 241 and position the blade so that it forms an angle of 90° with the arm; ❒ remove the press-fitted blade B from arm A; ❒ insert the new blade making sure it is locked into place. WARNING Driving with worn wiper blades is a serious hazard, because visibility is reduced in bad weather. INDEX 244 fig. 241 F0N0137 HEADLIGHT WASHERS SPRAY NOZZLES Front windscreen (washer) fig. 242 If there is no jet of fluid, firstly check that there is fluid in the reservoir (see “Checking fluid levels” in this chapter). Then check that the nozzle holes are not clogged; use a needle to unblock them if necessary. The washer jets should be positioned by adjusting the angle of the sprays using a small straight-headed screwdriver. The jets must be directed at about 1/3 of the height from the top edge of the windscreen. Check the condition and cleanliness of nozzles at regular intervals. The headlamp washers are activated automatically when the screen washer is operated with the dipped headlamps on. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX fig. 242 F0N0112 245 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 246 BODYWORK PROTECTION FROM ATMOSPHERIC 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 vehicle, Fiat has implemented the best manufacturing technologies to effectively protect the bodywork against corrosion. These include: ❒ painting products and systems which give the vehicle particular resistance to corrosion and abrasion; ❒ Use of galvanised (or pretreated) steel sheets, with high resistance to corrosion; ❒ spraying the underbody, engine compartment, wheelhouse internal parts 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 triggering rust inside. VEHICLE BODY AND UNDERBODY WARRANTY Your vehicle 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 your Warranty Booklet. ADVICE FOR PRESERVING THE 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 the formation of rust. Only use genuine spare paint products for touch-ups (see “Bodywork paint identification plate” in the “Technical Specifications” section). Standard maintenance of paintwork consists in washing the vehicle; its frequency depends on the conditions and environment where the vehicle is used. For example, it is advisable to wash the vehicle more often in areas with high atmospheric pollution or if you are travelling on roads spread with salt. To correctly wash the vehicle proceed as follows: ❒ 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. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 247 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 248 If you put the vehicle through a car wash, follow these recommendations: ❒ remove the aerial from the roof so it does not get damaged; ❒ the car wash should use water added to a soapy solution; ❒ rinse thoroughly to avoid soap marks staying on the bodywork or less visible parts. Some car washes with old-style blades and/or in a poor state of repair can damage the paintwork, facilitating the formation of lines that give the paint a dull/misty appearance, especially on dark colours. If this happens, lightly polish the paintwork with appropriate products. Dry the less visible parts, such as the door frames, bonnet and the headlight frames with special care, as in these areas water may stagnate more easily. It is a good idea to leave the vehicle outdoors for a while after washing it to give the water time to evaporate. Do not wash the vehicle after it has been left in the sun or with the bonnet hot: this may alter the shine of the paintwork. Exterior plastic parts should be cleaned in the same way as the rest of the vehicle. Where possible, do not park the vehicle under trees; the resinous substances released by many species give the paint a dull appearance and increase the possibility of rust. IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off immediately and thoroughly as the acid they contain is particularly aggressive. Detergents pollute the environment.The vehicle should be washed in areas equipped for collecting and purifying the liquid used in the washing process. Windows Front headlights To clean windows, use specific cleaning products. Also use clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or damaging the transparency. IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g. petrol) or ketenes (e.g. acetone) for cleaning the plastic lenses of the front headlights. KNOW YOUR VEHICLE IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window inside gently with a cloth in the direction of the filaments to avoid damaging the heating device. SAFETY Engine compartment STARTING AND DRIVING At the end of each winter, thoroughly wash the engine compartment, taking care to avoid spraying the water jet directly onto the electronic control units and the relay/fuse box on the left side of the engine compartment (driving direction). Have this operation performed at a specialised workshop. IMPORTANT The washing should take place with the 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. WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 249 KNOW YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY INTERIORS SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS Regularly check that water is not trapped under the mats (due to water dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.), as this could cause oxidation of the sheet metal. Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner. It is advisable to use a moist brush on velvet upholstery. WARNING STARTING AND DRIVING WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES IN AN EMERGENCY SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS INDEX 250 Never use flammable products, such as petroleum ether or modified petrol, to clean the inside of the vehicle.The electrostatic charges which are generated by rubbing during the cleaning operation may cause a fire. WARNING Do not keep aerosol cans in the vehicle: they might explode. 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. Rub the seats with a sponge and a solution of water and mild soap. PLASTIC PARTS It is advisable to clean interior plastic parts with a damp cloth and a solution of water and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Use specific products for cleaning plastic, without solvents and specifically designed to prevent damage to the appearance and colour of the treated parts to remove grease and tough stains. IMPORTANT Never use spirits or petroleum to clean the instrument panel. LEATHER STEERING WHEEL/GEAR KNOB/HANDBRAKE (for versions/markets, where provided) These components must be cleaned with mild soap and water only. Never use alcohol or alcohol-based products. Read the product label carefully before using specific products for cleaning the interiors: make sure the product does not contain spirits or alcohol-based substances. If, when cleaning the windscreen with special products, window cleaner accidentally drips onto the leather of the steering wheel/gear lever knob/hand brake, wipe away immediately and then wash the affected area with mild soap and water. IMPORTANT Be careful when using a steering wheel lock device, where applicable, to avoid damaging the leather upholstery by rubbing.

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. The procedures below are followed for measuring consumption: ❒ urban cycle: begins with cold starting, followed by driving simulating the use of the vehicle in town; ❒ extra-urban cycle: driving that simulates using the vehicle out of town with frequent acceleration in all gears; the speed varies from 0 to 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 situations, weather conditions, driving style, general conditions of the vehicle, trim level/equipment/accessories, climate control system, vehicle load, roof rack, other situations that affect air drag may lead to different fuel consumption levels than those measured.

To assure customers of 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, Fiat is offering their customers the opportunity of handing 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. In particular, in almost all European Union countries, until 1st January 2007, vehicles registered after 1st July 2002 will be collected free of charge, whilst from 2007 collection will be free of charge irrespective of the year of registration as long as the vehicle contains its basic components (in particular, the engine and bodywork) and has no additional waste. To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, go to one of our Dealerships or Fiat-authorised collection and scrapping centres. 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 a Fiat and Fiat Commercial Vehicle Dealership or by calling the toll-free number 00800 3428 0000 or on the Fiat website.
