Dear Customer, Thank you for selecting Fiat and congratulations on your choice of a Fiat Idea. We have written this handbook to help you get to know all the features of your Fiat Idea and use it in the best possible way. You should read it right through before taking to the road for the first time. You will find information, tips and important warnings regarding the driving of your car to help you derive the maximum from the technological features of your Fiat Idea. Read the warnings and indications, marked with the following symbols:

personal safety;

car safety;

environmental protection.

The enclosed Warranty Booklet lists the services that Fiat offers to its Customers: ❒ the Warranty Certificate with terms and conditions for maintaining its validity ❒ the range of additional services available to Fiat Customers. Enjoy the read. Happy motoring!

This Owner Handbook describes all the versions of the Fiat Idea. As a consequence, you should only consider the information which is related to the engine and bodywork version of your car. READ THIS CAREFULLY!

REFUELLING Petrol engines: refuel with unleaded petrol with an octane rating (RON) of 95 or higher only. Diesel engines: only refuel with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590. K The use of other products or mixtures may damage the engine beyond repair and consequently cause lapse of war- ranty in relation to the damage caused.

STARTING THE ENGINE Petrol engines: make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started. Multijet engines: make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to MAR and wait for the warning lights Y and m to go off; turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.

PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL The catalytic converter develops high temperature during operation. Do not park on grass, dry leaves, pine ┮ needles or other flammable material: fire risk.

RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT The car is fitted with a system that allows continuous diagnosis of the components correlated with emis- sions to ensure better respect for the environment. ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES If, after buying the car, you decide to add electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually draining the battery), visit a Fiat Dealership. They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the car’s electric sys- tem can support the required load. ▵

CODE card Keep the card in a safe place, non in the car. Have the electronic code printed on the CODE card with you at all times. You will need it to start the engine in an emergency.

SCHEDULED SERVICING Correct maintenance of the car is essential for ensuring it stays in tip-top condition and safeguards its safety features, its environmental friendliness and low running costs for a long time to come.

THE OWNER’S HANDBOOK CONTAINS...... important information, advise and warnings for correct use, driving safety and maintenance of your car in time. Pay special attention to the symbols " (personal safety) # (environmental protection) â (car integrity). DDAASSHHBBOOAARRDD AANNDD CCOONNTTRROOLLSS

DASHBOARD European Directives. The procedures below are followed for measuring consumption: ❒ urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car; SAFETY ❒ extra urban cycle: driving simulating the use of the vehicle in a non-urban situation with frequent acceleration in all gears; the speed varies between 0 and 120 km/h; ❒ combined consumption: about 37% of the urban cycle and around 63% of the non-urban cycle.

STARTING STARTING IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations, weather conditions, driving style, general conditions of the car, trim level/ AND DRIVING equipment/accessories, load, climate control system, roof rack, other situations that affect air drag may lead to different fuel con- sumption levels than those measured.
