Operation Manual

DPF (PARTICULATE FILTER) BEING
CLEANED
(Multijet versions with DPF only – amber)
When the key is turned to the MAR-ON position
the warning light comes on but should go out after a
few seconds.
The warning light comes on constantly to notify the
driver that the DPF system needs to eliminate
captured pollutants (particulate) by the regeneration
process.
The warning light does not switch on during every
DPF regeneration, but only when driving conditions
require that the driver is notified. To switch the
warning light off, the car must be kept moving until
the regeneration process is completed. On average,
the process lasts 15 minutes.
The best conditions to complete the regeneration
process are reached driving the car at about 60 km/h
with engine speed over 2000 rpm.
When this warning light switches on, it does not
indicate a fault with the car and it should therefore
not be taken to a workshop.
A specific message will appear on the display when
the warning light comes on (for versions/markets,
where provided).
WARNING
The driving speed should always be
suitable to traffic conditions, weather
conditions and the driver should always comply
with the Highway Code.The engine can also
be switched off if the DPF warning light is on;
nevertheless, repeated interruptions of the
regeneration process could cause an early decay
of engine oil. For this reason, always wait until
the warning light switches off before stopping
the engine as described above. It is not a good
idea to complete DPF regeneration with the
vehicle stationary.
FUEL RESERVE (amber)
When the key is turned to the MAR-ON position
the warning light comes on but should go out after a
few seconds.
The warning light switches on when about 5 litres of
fuel are left in the tank.
IMPORTANT The warning light will blink to indicate
a system failure. If this is the case, go to a Fiat
Dealership to have the system checked.
