IMPORTANT The warning light will flash to indicate

a system failure. If this is the case, go to a Fiat

Dealership to have the system checked.

EOBD/INJECTION SYSTEM

FAILURE (amber)

In normal conditions, the warning light switches on

when the key is turned to MAR (on some versions,

with a message on the display), but should switch off

as soon as the engine is started.

If the warning light remains on or switches on whilst

driving, the injection system is not working properly;

in particular, if the warning light switches 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.

In these conditions, you can continue driving without

demanding excessive effort or speed from the

engine. Prolonged use of the car with the warning

light on may cause damage: contact a Fiat Dealership

as soon as possible.

The warning light switches off after the malfunction

disappears, but the notification is stored in the

system.

NOTE (valid only for petrol engines)

If the warning light flashes, the catalytic converter

may be damaged.

In this case, 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

moderate speed, trying to avoid driving conditions

that may cause further flashing and contact a Fiat

Dealership as soon as possible.

Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as

possible if the

warning light either

does not switch on when the key is turned

to MAR or if while driving the warning light

switches on either constantly or flashing (along

with a message and a symbol on the display

on some versions). Operation of the

warning

light may be verified by traffic control officers

using appropriate equipment. Comply with the

laws and regulations of the country where you

are driving.

ESC SYSTEM FAILURE (amber)

(for versions/markets, where provided)

This warning light switches on when the ignition key

is turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a

few seconds. If the warning light does not switch off

or stays on (along with a message on the display

on some versions) whilst driving, contact a Fiat

Dealership. Flashing of the warning light while driving

indicates the intervention of the ESC system.
