SYSTEM FAILURE
(amber)
Under normal conditions, when the igni-
tion key is turned to
MAR
, the warning
light comes on, but should go off as soon
as the engine is started.
If the warning light remains on or comes
on whilst driving, that means that the in-
jection system is not working properly; in
particular, if the warning light comes on
constantly, this indicates a malfunction in
the supply/ignition system that could cause
excessive exhaust emissions, a possible loss
of performance, poor driveability and high
fuel consumption.
The display shows the dedicated message.
Under these conditions, you may continue
travelling at a moderate speed without de-
manding excessive effort from the engine.
Prolonged use of the car with the warn-
ing light on may cause damage. Contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
The warning light switches off if the failure
disappears, but it is still stored by the sys-
tem.
U
Go to a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible if warning
light
U
does not light up
when the key is turned to
MAR or if, while travelling, the warn-
ing light comes on either constantly or
flashing (along with a message on the
display on certain versions). The oper-
ation of the warning light
U
may be
checked by the traffic control author-
ities using specific devices. Comply with
the laws and regulations of the coun-
try where you are driving.
NOTE
(this information applies to petrol
engine only)
If the warning light is flashing, this indicates
that the catalytic converter may be dam-
aged.
If the light flashes, it is necessary to release
the accelerator pedal to lower the speed
of the engine until the warning light stops
flashing; continue the journey at moder-
ate speed, trying to avoid driving condi-
tions that may cause further flashing and
contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as pos-
sible.
FRONT PASSENGER
AIR BAG
DEACTIVATED
(amber)
The warning light
F
comes on when the
front passenger’s air bag is deactivated.
With front passenger’s air bag on, turn-
ing the ignition key to
MAR
, the warning
light
F
comes on constantly for about
4 seconds, it flashes for a further 4 sec-
onds and then it must switch off.
The warning light
F
indi-
cates failure of warning light
¬
. This condition is indicated by in-
termittent blinking of warning light
F
for longer than 4 seconds. In this
case, the warning light
¬
may not in-
dicate failures in the retaining sys-
tems. Before resuming driving,
contact a Fiat Dealership immedi-
ately to have the system checked.
