CORRECT USE
OF THE CAR
If the engine does not start at the first at-
tempt, return the ignition key to STOP
before repeating starting.
If, when the ignition key is on MAR, the
instrument panel warning light
Y
re-
mains on, turn the key to STOP and then
back to MAR; if the warning light remains
on, try with the other keys provided with
the car.
Contact the Fiat Dealership if you still can-
not start the engine.
HOW TO WARM UP THE
ENGINE AFTER IT HAS JUST
STARTED
Proceed as follows:
drive off slowly, letting the engine turn
at medium speed. Do not accelerate
abruptly;
do not demand maximum performan-
ce for the first few kilometres. Wait un-
til the engine coolant temperature gau-
ge starts moving.
PROCEDURE FOR DIESEL
VERSIONS
Proceed as follows:
ensure that the handbrake is up;
put the gear lever into neutral;
turn the ignition key to MAR; instru-
ment panel warning lights
m
and
Y
will light up;
wait for the warning lights
Y
and
m
to turn 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 the warning light
m
turns off. Wai-
ting too long will waste the work do-
ne by the glow plugs.
Release the key as soon as the engine
starts.
IMPORTANT When the engine is cold,
rotating the ignition key to AVV, the ac-
celerator pedal must be completely re-
leased.
Warning light
m
will blink
for 60 seconds after starting
or during prolonged cranking
to indicate a fault to the glow
plug heating system. Use the car nor-
mally if the engine starts and contact
the Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
Never jump start the engine
by pushing, towing or driving
downhill. This could cause a
flow of fuel into the catalytic
converter and damage it beyond re-
pair.
