REFUELLING
Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95 conforming to the European specification EN 228.
Diesel engines: only refuel with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590.
Using other products or mixtures may damage the engine beyond repair and cause the forfeiture of the warranty cover for caused damages as a consequence.
ENGINE STARTING
Petrol engines: make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch
without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.
Diesel engines: make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch
without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to MAR and wait for the warning lights Y and m to
go off; turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.
While working, the catalyst develops a very high temperature. Do not park the car over grass, dry leaves, pine needles or any other inflammable materials: risk of fire.

CODE card
Keep the code card in a safe place, not in the car. You should always keep the electronic card code written on the
CODE card with you.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance of the car is essential for ensuring it stays in tip-top condition and safeguards its safety features, its environmental friendliness and low running costs for a long time to come.

TWO-ZONE
CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM
(where provided)
DESCRIPTION
The car is fitted with a two-zone climate
control system which makes it possible to
separately adjust the air temperatures and
air distribution on the drivers side and on
the passengers side. Temperature control
is based on the equivalent temperature
logic, i.e.: the system continuously works
to keep constant the comfort inside the
passenger compartment and to compensate any variation of the outside climate
conditions, including sunshine detected by
a proper sensor provided for the purpose.
The climate control system automatically
controls and adjusts the following parameters and functions:
air temperature at driver/front passenger vents;
air distribution at driver/front passenger vents;
fan speed (continuous air flow variation);
air recirculation.

During fully automatic operation, the only manual settings required are the following:
MONO, to align the air temperature
and distribution set on the passengers
side with that on the drivers side;
air recirculation, to keep it always
on or off;
- to speed up demisting/defrosting of
During (FULL AUTO) operation, changing air distribution and/or flow and/or
compressor activation and/or air recirculation will make the FULL wording disappear. In this way the system will keep
on controlling automatically all functions,
excluding those changed manually. Fan
speed is the same for every area of the
passenger compartment.
Air temperature adjusting
knobs H - N
Turning the knobs clockwise or counterclockwise, respectively highers or lowers
the temperature of the air required respectively in the front left zone (knob N) or
in the right zone (knob H) of the passenger
compartment. Since the system controls
two zones of the passenger compartment,
it is possible to personalise required temperatures (driver and passenger) with a
maximum difference of 7 C. The temperatures set are shown on the displays near
the relevant knobs. Pressing button A
(MONO) automatically aligns the temperature on the passengers side with that on
the drivers side; you can therefore set the
same temperature for both zones by turning knob N on driver side. Separate operation of air temperatures and distribution is
restored by turning knobs H or pressing
again button A (MONO) when the button
led is on.
Turn the knobs fully clockwise or counterclockwise to engage respectively HI (maximum heating) or LO (maximum cooling).
To deactivate these two functions, just
turn the temperature knob and set the required temperature.
Front air distribution buttons I-M
Pressing these buttons it is possible to
choose manually one of the seven possible air distributions to the passenger compartment (right or left side):
lower parts of the passenger compartment. Due to the natural tendency of heat to spread upwards, this type
of distribution allows heating of the
passenger compartment in the shortest time, also giving a prompt feeling
of warmth.
SAFETY
DEVICES
CORRECT USE
OF THE CAR
The type of air distribution, when selected by hand, is shown by lighting up of the
relevant led on the selected button. In the
combined function, pressing a button will
activate the relevant function whereas,
pressing a button relevant to an already
operating function will turn off this function and the relevant button led. To restore automatic air distribution control after a manual selection, press button AUTO.

The car is fitted with an ABS braking system, which prevents the wheels from locking when braking, makes the most of road
grip and gives the best control when emergency braking under difficulty road conditions.
System is completed by EBD (Electronic
Braking force Distribution), which distributes the braking action between front
and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT To have the maximum efficiency of the braking system, it is necessary a setting period of about 500 km
(with new car after replacing brake
pads/discs): during this period it is better
to avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged
brakes.
WARNING
If the ABS system cuts in, it
is a sign that the grip between tyre and the road surface has
reached the limit: you must slow
down to match the speed to the road
grip available.
ABS failure
ABS failure is indicated by the turning on
of warning light > on the instrument panel together with the dedicated message on
the multifunction display (where provided), (see section Warning lights and messages).
In this case the braking system is still efficient, though without the aid of the ABS
system. Drive carefully to the closest Fiat
Dealership to have the system checked.
SAFETY
DEVICES
FAILURE INDICATIONS

WARNING
The ABS exploits the tyreroad grip at the best, but it

WARNING
If warning light x alone
comes on (together with the
message on the multifunction display,
where provided), stop the car immediately and contact the nearest Fiat
Dealership. Fluid leaks from the hydraulic system, in fact, can compromise the braking system, both traditional systems and systems with ABS.
BRAKE ASSIST
(emergency braking assistance
integral with ESP)
(where provided)
The system, which cannot be cut out, recognizes emergency braking (on the ground
of the brake pedal operation speed) and
considerably increases the pressure in the
brake circuit thus supporting the driver to
obtain prompt and effective braking.
Brake Assist is deactivated on the versions
equipped with ESP, in the event of ESP system failure (indicated by warning light
switching on together with the message
on the multifunction display, where provided).
WARNING
When the ABS cuts in, and
you feel the brake pedal pulsating, do not remove your foot, but
keep it pressed; in doing so you will
stop in the shortest amount of space
possible under the current road conditions.
ESP SYSTEM
(Electronic Stability
Program)
(where provided)
The ESP system is an electronic system
controlling the car stability in the event of
tyre grip loss.
The ESP system is therefore particularly
useful when grip conditions of the road surfaces changes.
In addition to the ESP system, ASR system
and Hill Holder, (where provided) also the
MSR system (adjusting the engine braking
torque) and the HBA system (improving
the braking force during emergency braking) are provided.
ABS SYSTEM INTERVENTION
It is signalled by the blinking of the warning light on the instrument panel, to inform the driver that the car is in critical
stability and grip conditions.
The ESP system is automatically activated when the car is started and cannot be
de-activated.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
WARNING
Performance of the ESP system, in terms of active safety should not induce the driver to take
pointless and unnecessary risks. The
style of driving must in any case always be adapted to the conditions of
the road surface, visibility and traffic.
Road safety is always the drivers responsibility.
WARNING
For correct operation of the
ESP and ASR systems, the
tyres must absolutely be of the same
brand and type on all wheels, in perfect conditions and, above all, of
type, brand and size specified.

TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING
SYSTEM - T.P.M.S.
(where provided)
The car can be equipped with the T.P.M.S.
(Tyre Pressure Monitoring System). This
system consists of a radio-frequency sensor, installed on each wheel (on the rim
inside the tyre) that sends pressure information to the control unit.
WARNING
Pay the utmost attention
when checking or inflating
tyres. Excessive pressure impairs road
holding, increases suspension and
wheel stress and causes abnormal
tyre wear.
WARNING
Tyre pressure should be
checked with tyres rested
and cold. Should it become necessary
for whatever reason to check pressure
with hot tyres, do not reduce pressure
although it is higher than the prescribed value but repeat the check
when tyres are cold.
WARNING
The T.P.M.S. system helps
the driver to monitor tyre
pressure since the driver is the always
responsible for proper inflation pressure of tyres and spare wheel (see
paragraph Wheels in section Car
Maintenance).
WARNING
T.P.M.S. system cannot indicate sudden tyre pressure
drops (e.g.: tyre burst). In this event,
brake the car cautiously and avoid
sudden steering.
WARNING
Strong radio-frequency noises could inhibit the regular
operation of the T.P.M.S. system.
This condition will be indicated by a
message on the multfunction display
(where provided).
The warning message will go off automatically as soon as the radio-frequency noise will stop to disturb the
system.
DASHBOARD
AND CONTROLS
WARNING
If the car is fitted with
T.P.M.S. system, when
changing a tyre, change also the rubber seal of the valve. Contact a Fiat
Dealership.
SAFETY
DEVICES
WARNING
If the car is fitted with
T.P.M.S. system, tyre and/or
rim removal and refitting operations
involve special precautions; to prevent damages or wrong sensor refitting, contact Fiat Dealership to have
tyre and/or rim changed.
CORRECT USE
OF THE CAR
WARNING
The T.P.M.S. system requires
special equipment. Consult
Fiat Dealership to know what type of
accessories are compatible with the
system (wheels, wheel caps, etc.). Using other accessories could cause system malfunctioning.
WARNING
Tyre pressure could change
according to outside temperature. For this reason the T.P.M.S.
system could temporarily indicate low
tyre pressure. In this event check pressure with cold tyres and restore proper inflation values if required.
WARNING

If the outside temperature is very low,
the diesel thickens due to the formation
of paraffins and could clog the diesel fuel filter.
In order to avoid these problems, different types of diesel are distributed according to the season: summer type, winter type and arctic type (cold, mountain
areas).
Topping up with diesel fuel not complying
with EN590 European Norm might make
it necessary to replace the filter more frequently than indicated in the Service
schedule.
If refuelling with diesel fuel not suitable for
the current temperature, mix diesel fuel
with TUTELA DIESEL ART additive in the
proportions stated on the can, putting first
the antifreeze in the tank and then the
diesel fuel.
If driving or parking the vehicle for a long
period in cold areas/mountains, refuel with
the diesel fuel available at local filling stations.
In this situation you are also recommended to have in the tank an amount of
fuel 50% higher than usable capacity.

WARNING
During normal service the
catalyst reaches high temperatures. Do not therefore park the
car over inflammable materials (grass,
dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire
hazard.
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 particular filter has been adopted to eliminate almost totally particulates
in compliance with current / future law
regulations.
During reclaiming the following phenomena could take place: idling slight increase,
fan activation, slight smoke increase, high
exhaust temperatures. These situations
shall not be considered as faults and they
do not affect car performance and environment.

A small amount of smoke may be produced. This smoke is in no way toxic and
presents no fire hazard.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or greasing.
Anything that modifies its original conditions invalidates its efficiency.
If due to unusual natural events (floods,
seas storm, etc.) the device has been affected by water and mud, it must necessarily be replaced.
WARNING
The pretensioner can only
be used once. After a collision that has triggered it, have it replaced at a Fiat Dealership. Pretensioner validity is indicated on the label in the glove compartment: the
pretensioners should be replaced at a
Fiat Dealership as this date approaches.
LOAD LIMITERS
To increase passengers safety, the front
seat belt reels contain a load limiter which
allows controlled sag in such a way as to
dose the force acting on the chest and
shoulders during the belt restraining action in case of front crash.

WARNING
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 hips. Make sure that the
seat belts of the front and rear passengers are fastened at all times! You
increase the risk of serious injury or
death in a collision if you travel with
the belts unfastened.
WARNING
Under no circumstances
should the components of
the seat belts and pretensioners be
tampered with or removed. Any operation should be carried out by qualified and authorised personnel. Always contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
If the belt has been subjected to heavy stress, for example after and accident, it should be
changed completely together with
the anchors, anchor fastening screws
and the pretensioners. In fact, even if
the belt has no visible defects, it could
have lost its resilience.
WARNING
Never travel with a child sitting on the passengers lap
with a single belt to protect them
both. Do not fasten other objects to
the body.
Compared with adults, their head is proportionally larger and heavier than the rest
of the body, while the muscles and bone
structure are not completely developed.
Therefore, correct restraint systems are
necessary, other than adult seat belts. The
results of research on the best child restraint systems are contained in the European Standard EEC-R44. This Standard enforces the use of restraint systems classified in five groups:

IMPORTANT The triggering of pretensioners, front air bags and side bags is decided in a differentiated manner by the
electronic control unit, depending on the
type of crash. The failure to deploy one or
more of them does not mean that the system is not working properly.
WARNING
Never rest head, arms and

WARNING
Always keep your hands on
the steering wheel rim when
driving, so that if the air bag is triggered, it can inflate without meeting
any obstacles which could cause serious harm to you. Do not drive with
the body bent forwards, keep the seat
back rest in the erect position and
lean your back well against it.
WARNING
Remember that with the key
engaged and at MAR, even if
the engine is not running, the air bags
may be triggered on a stationary car
if it is bumped by another moving car.
Therefore, never seat children on the
front seat even when the car is stationary. On the other hand remember
that if the key is at STOP, no safety
system (air bags or pretensioners) is
triggered in the event of an impact; in
this case, failure to come into action
cannot be considered as a sign that
the system is not working properly.
WARNING
If the car has been stolen or
an attempt to steal it has
been made, if it has been subjected to
vandals or floods, have the air bag
system checked by Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
When the ignition key is
turned to MAR, the warning
light F (with passengers front air
bag active) turns on and flashes for
few seconds to remind that passengers air bag will be deployed in a
crash, after which it should go off.
WARNING
Do not wash the seat back
rest with pressurised water
or steam (by hand or at automatic
seat washing stations).
WARNING
The front air bag is triggered
for shocks greater in magnitude that the pretensioners. For impacts between these two thresholds,
it is therefore normal that only the
pretensioners are triggered.
WARNING
Do not hook rigid objects to
the coat hooks and to the
support handles.
WARNING
The air bag does not substitute the seat belts, but only
increases their effectiveness. Moreover, since the front air bags do not
come into operation in the event of
front impact at low speed, side collisions, bumps from behind or overturning, in these circumstances the
occupants would only be protected
by the seat belts which must therefore
always be fastened.

lock device: if the engine fails to start, see
the paragraph The Fiat CODE system in
section Dashboard and controls.
The engine may be noisier than usual during the first seconds of operation, especially after it has not been used for a while.
This characteristic feature does not compromise functionality or reliability of the
hydraulic tappets: the timing system devised to limit servicing.
WARNING
Running the engine in confined areas is extremely dangerous. The engine consumes oxygen
and produces carbon monoxide
which is a highly toxic and lethal gas.
WARNING
Remember that the servobrake 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.

WARNING
To change gears properly
you must push the clutch
pedal fully down. 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.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out
in accordance with the Service schedule.
Tyres
Check the pressure of the tyres routinely at an interval of no more than 4 weeks:
if the pressure is too low, consumption
levels increase as resistance to rolling is
higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with too much luggage
stowed in the boot. The weight of the car
(especially when driving in town) and its
trim greatly affects consumption and stability.
Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the amount
of time needed. Rear heated window, additional headlights, windscreen wipers and
heater fan need a considerable amount of
energy, therefore increasing the requirement of current increases fuel consumption (up to +25% in the urban cycle).
Starting
Do not warm the engine with the car at
a standstill or at idle or high speed: under
these conditions the engine warms up
much more slowly, increasing electrical
consumption and emissions. It is therefore
advisable to move off immediately, slowly, avoiding high speeds. This way the engine will warm faster.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid accelerating when waiting at traffic
lights or before switching off the engine.
This and also double declutching is absolutely pointless on modern cars and also increase consumption and pollution.
Climate control
The air conditioner is an additional load
which greatly affects the engine leading to
higher consumption (on average up to
+20%). When the temperature outside
the car permits it, use the air vents where
possible.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified aerodynamic
items may adversely affect air drag and
consumption levels.
Gear selection
As soon as the conditions of the traffic and
road allow, use a higher gear. Using a low
gear to obtain brilliant performance increases consumption.
In the same way improper use of a high
gear increases consumption, emissions an
engine wear.

Top speed
Fuel consumption considerably increases
with speed. Avoid superfluous braking and
accelerating, which cost in terms of both
fuel and emissions.
Acceleration
Accelerating violently increasing the revs
will greatly affect consumption and emissions: acceleration should be gradual and
should not exceed the maximum torque.

IMPORTANT NOTES
WARNING
The ABS system with which
the car may be fitted does
not control the trailer braking system.
Therefore be cautious on slippery
roads.
WARNING
Under no circumstances
should the car brake system
be altered to control the trailer brake.
The trailer braking system must be
fully independent of the cars hydraulic system.
The towing device must meet current regulations with reference to 94/20/EC Directive and subsequent amendments.
For any version the towing device used
must match the towable weight of the car

Do not cross switch the
tyres, moving them from the
right of the car to the left and vice
versa.
WARNING
Never submit alloy rims to
repainting treatments requiring to use temperatures exceeding 150C. The mechanical properties
of the wheels could be impaired.
RUBBER HOSES
As far as the brake system and fuel rubber
hoses are concerned, carefully follow the
Service schedule in this section.
Indeed ozone, high temperatures and prolonged lack of fluid in the system may
cause hardening and cracking of the hoses,
with possible leaks. Careful control is
therefore necessary.
WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WIPERS
BLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part using
special products; TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is recommended.
If the rubber blades are bent or worn they
should be replaced. In any case they
should be changed once a year.
A few simple notions can reduce the possibility of damage to the blades:
if the temperature fall below zero,
make sure that ice has not frozen the
rubber against glass. If necessary, thaw
using an antifreeze product;
remove any snow from the glass: in addition to protecting the blades, this prevents effort on the motor and overheating;
do not operate the windscreen wipers
on dry glass.
WARNING
Driving with worn wiper
blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.

These include:
Paint
Paintwork does not only serve an aestethic purpose, but also protects the underlying sheet metal.
remove the aerial from the roof to prevent damage to it if the car is washed in
an automatic system;
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.
When drying, take particular care with the
less visible parts like door surrounds, bonnet and around the headlights where water may stagnate. The car should not be
taken to a closed area immediately, but left
in the open so that residual water can
evaporate.
Engine compartment
At the end of the winter the engine compartment should be carefully washed,
without directing the jet against electronic control units. Contact a specialised
workshop to have this done.
IMPORTANT The car should be washed
with the engine cold and the ignition key
at STOP. After washing make sure that
the various protections (e.g. rubber caps

Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to remove dust. Velvet is cleaned better if the
brush is moistened.
WARNING
Never use flammable products like oil ether or rectified
petrol for cleaning car interiors. Electrostatic discharges generated by rubbing during cleaning operations could
cause fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol cans in
the car: they might explode.
Aerosol cans must never be exposed
to a temperature above 50 C. The
temperature inside the car exposed
to the sun may go well beyond that
figure.

For diesel engines, in the event of emergencies when genuine products are not available, lubricants providing at least ACEA B4
performance are allowed; in that case, engine best performance is not guaranteed; we recommend to have it replaced as soon as
possible with the recommended lubricants by the Fiat Dealership.
Use of products with low-quality properties than ACEA A3 and ACEA B4 could cause damages to the engine that are not covered
by the warranty.
For very cold climate conditions, ask Fiat Dealership for the appropriate Selenia product to use.
