Fiat Multipla Owner's Handbook Manual page 138

If, when the ignition key is at MAR, warning light ¢
remains lit together with warning light U, 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.
If you are still unable to start the engine, perform the
emergency start-up procedure (see "Emergency start-
up" in section "In an emergency") and contact Fiat
Dealership.
IMPORTANT Never leave the ignition key at MAR
when the engine is off.
The warning light m will flash for 60 seconds at start-up or during prolonged cranking to signal a
fault in the glow plug heating system. You can use the car as usual if the engine starts but you
should contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

❒ Put the gear lever into neutral.
