Warning light What it means
amber
DPF CLEANING IN PROGRESS (Diesel versions with DPF only)
The warning light switches on constantly to indicate that the DPF system needs to eliminate the trapped
pollutants (particulate) through the regeneration process.
The warning light remains off during the entire DPF regeneration and lights up only when driving conditions
require the driver to be notified.
To turn off the warning light, keep the car in motion until the regeneration process is over. On average, the
process lasts 15 minutes. Optimal conditions for completing the process are achieved by travelling at
60 km/h with engine speed above 2000 rpm.
When this warning light switches on, it does not indicate an anomaly and thus it should not be taken to a
workshop.
IMPORTANT Failure to observe the appropriate procedure for a long distance when the warning light
comes on, can cause the warning light to come on, resulting in the need to go to the Dealership to
restore correct DPF operation.
IMPORTANT
23) If the warning light flashes when driving, contact a Fiat Dealership.
24) The presence of water in the fuel system circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular engine operation. If the
symbol is displayed contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to bleed the system. If the above indications come on immediately after
refuelling, water has probably been poured into the tank: switch the engine off immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
25) If the warning light comes on, the exhausted engine oil should be changed as soon as possible, never drive more than 500 km from
the first switching-on of this warning light. Failure to observe the above may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the warranty.
Remember that when this warning light comes on, it does not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if it flashes you do not need to top up
the engine oil.
26) If the symbol flashes when driving, contact a Fiat Dealership.
27) Vehicle travel speed should always be adapted to the traffic and weather conditions, and must always comply with traffic regulations. The
engine can be stopped even if the DPF warning light is on: however, repeated interruptions of the regeneration process could cause
premature deterioration of the engine oil. For this reason it is always advisable to wait for the symbol to go off before turning off the engine,
following the instructions above. Do not complete the DPF regeneration process when the vehicle is stopped.
