U EOBD ENGINE
FAILURE CONTROL
SYSTEM
(petrol versions only) (amber)
In normal conditions, the warning
light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR and should go
out as soon as the engine is started.
The initial lighting up shows that the
warning light is working properly.
If the warning light either stays on or
comes on while travelling:
1. Fixed light - warning of a fuel
feed/ignition system failure which may
increase emissions in exhaust or cause
possible drops in performance, poor
handling and high consumption.
In such conditions, you can contin-
ue driving but you should not tax the
engine and you should moderate the
speed. Prolonged use with the warn-
ing light on can cause damage. Contact
a Fiat Dealershipas soon as possi-
ble.

The warning light will go out when
the failure disappears. In any case, the
system will store the error.
2. Flashing - warning that the cata-
lyst can be damaged (see "EOBD sys-
tem" in this chapter).
If the warning light starts flashing, re-
lease the accelerator pedal and slow
the engine until the warning light stops
flashing. Continue driving at moderate
speed, preventing the warning light
from coming on again. Contact a Fi-
at Dealership as soon as possible.

U INJECTION SYSTEM
FAILURE
(diesel versions) (red)
When there is a fault in the injection
system.
The warning light should come on
when the ignition key is turned to
MAR and go out after a few seconds.
The warning light will stay on or come
on when travelling to indicate imperfect
operation of the injection system with
possible loss of performance, poor han-
dling and higher consumption.
In these conditions, you can contin-
ue driving but you should avoid de-
manding efforts from the engine or
high speeds. Contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship as soon as possible.
Prolonged use of the vehicle with the
warning light on can cause damage to
the engine, especially in the event of
misfiring. The vehicle can only be dri-
ven for a short period of time at low
speeds.
Occasional and brief lighting of the
warning light is meaningless.
