Dear Customer,

We would like to congratulate and thank you for choosing the Fiat New 500.
We have written this handbook to help you get familiar with all the features of your car.
Here you will find information, advice and important warnings regarding use of your car and how to achieve the best
performance from the technical features of your Fiat New 500.
You are advised to read it right through before taking to the road for the first time, to become familiar with the controls; at the
same time, you can understand the car behaviour on different road surfaces.
This document contains specifications, special procedures and essential information for caring for and maintaining your Fiat
New 500 over time, driving it safely and running it correctly.
After reading it, you are advised to keep the handbook inside the car, for an easy reference and for making sure it remains on
board the car should it be sold.
In the attached Warranty Booklet you will also find a description of the Services that Fiat offers to its customers, the Warranty
Certificate and the detail of the terms and conditions for maintaining its validity.
We are sure that these will help you to get in touch with and appreciate your new car and the service provided by the people at
Fiat.
Enjoy reading. Happy motoring!
IMPORTANT
All the versions of the Fiat New 500 are described in this Owner Handbook. Options, equipment dedicated to
specific markets or versions are not explicitly indicated in the text: as a consequence, you should only consider the
information which is related to the trim level, motor and version that you have purchased. Any content introduced
throughout the production of the model, outside the specific request of options at the time of purchase, will be
identified with the wording (where provided). All data contained in this publication are purely indicative. FCA Italy
S.p.A. can modify the specifications of the vehicle model described in this publication at any time, for technical or
marketing purposes. For further information, contact a Fiat Dealership.
ESSENTIAL INFORMATION!
STARTING THE ENGINE
With the transmission in position P (Park), when the ignition device is brought to the ENGINE position, an acoustic warning
is emitted and the message "READY" appears on the instrument panel display to indicate that the electric traction system of
the the New 500 has started. The New 500 is now ready to go.
ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the car, you decide to add electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually draining the 12V battery), contact a
Fiat Dealership. They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the car's electric system can support the
required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance of the car is essential for ensuring that it maintains its performance and its safety features, its
environmental friendliness and low running costs for a long time to come.
USE OF THE OWNER HANDBOOK
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Each time an instruction is given that concerns direction (left/right or forward/backward), it is written to be read from the
perspective of an occupant in the driver's seat. If a direction is written from a different perspective, it will be specified as such in
the text as appropriate.
The figures in the Owner Handbook are provided by way of example only: this might imply that some details of the image do
not correspond to the actual arrangement of your car. In addition, the Handbook has been conceived considering vehicles
with steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore possible that on vehicles with steering wheel on the right side, the position or
construction of some controls is not exactly mirror-like with respect to the figure.
To identify the chapter with the information needed you can consult the index at the end of this Owner Handbook.
The sections can be rapidly identified with dedicated graphic tabs, at the side of each odd page. A few pages further there is
a key for getting to know the section order and the relevant symbols in the tabs. There is in any case a textual indication of the
current section at the side of each even page.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
While reading this Owner Handbook you will find a series of WARNINGS to prevent procedures that could damage your car.
There are also PRECAUTIONS that must be carefully followed to prevent incorrect use of the components of the car, which
could cause accidents or injuries.
Therefore, all WARNINGS and CAUTIONS must always be carefully followed.
WARNINGS and CAUTIONS are recalled in the text with the following symbols:
personal safety;

car safety;

environmental protection.
NOTE These symbols, when necessary, are indicated besides the title or at the end of the line and are followed by a number.
That number recalls the corresponding warning at the end of the relevant chapter.
SYMBOLS
Some car components have coloured labels with symbols indicating precautions to be observed when using this component.
CHANGES/ALTERATIONS TO THE CAR
WARNING Any change or alteration of the car might seriously affect its safety and road grip, thus causing accidents, in which
the occupants could even be fatally injured.

ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER


If after buying the car, you decide to install electrical accessories that require a permanent electrical supply (e.g. radio, satellite
anti-theft system, etc.) or accessories that in any case burden the electrical supply, contact a Fiat Dealership, whose personnel
will check whether the car's electrical system is able to withstand the load required, or whether it needs to be integrated with a
more powerful 12V battery.

WARNING Take care when fitting additional spoilers, alloy wheel rims or non-standard wheel hubs: they could reduce the
ventilation of the brakes and affect efficiency under sharp, repeated braking or on long descents. Make sure that nothing
obstructs the pedal stroke (mats, etc.).

INSTALLING ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC DEVICES


Electrical and electronic devices installed after buying the car in the context of after-sales service must carry the following label
.
FCA Italy S.p.A. authorises the installation of transceivers provided that installation is carried out at a specialised centre, in a
workmanlike fashion and in compliance with manufacturer's specifications.

WARNING Traffic police may not allow the car on the road if devices have been installed which modify the features of the car.
This may also cause invalidation of warranty in relation to faults caused by the change either directly or indirectly related to it.
FCA Italy S.p.A. shall not be liable for damage caused by the installation of accessories either not supplied or recommended by
Fiat and/or not installed in compliance with the provided instructions.

RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND MOBILE PHONES


Radio transmitter equipment (car mobile phones, CB radios, amateur radio etc.) cannot be used inside the car unless a
separate aerial is mounted on the roof.
Transmission and reception of these devices may be affected by the shielding effect of the car body. As far as the use of EC-
approved mobile phones is concerned (GSM, GPRS, UMTS, LTE), follow the usage instructions provided by the mobile phone
Manufacturer.

WARNING The use of these devices inside the passenger compartment (without an external aerial) may cause the electrical
systems to malfunction. This could compromise the safety of the car in addition to constituting a potential hazard for
passengers' health.

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
GENERAL WARNINGS
WARNING Warning lights may be accompanied by a specific message and/or sound when implemented on the instrument
panel. These indications are indicative and precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or alternative
to the information contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. Always refer to the
information in this section in the event of a failure indication.

WARNING The failure indicators appearing on the display are divided into two categories: very serious and less serious failures.
Serious faults are indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious faults are indicated by a warning "cycle"
with a shorter duration. The instrument panel warning light will stay on until the cause of the malfunction is eliminated.

85
WARNING LIGHTS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL


Red warning lights

Warning light What it means

SEAT BELTS REMINDER


The warning light switches on constantly with the car stationary and the driver's side or passenger
side seat belt (when the passenger is present) not fastened.
The warning light will flash and a buzzer will sound if the car is in motion and the front seat belts are
not correctly fastened.
For permanent deactivation of the acoustic signal (buzzer) of the SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system
contact a Fiat Dealership. The system can be reactivated at any time using the Setup Menu.

AIRBAG FAILURE
The warning light switches on when the ignition device is brought to the ENGINE position, but it
should switch off after a few seconds.
The warning light stays on constantly if there is a fault in the airbag system.
44) 45)

ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE FAILURE / LOW BRAKE FLUID / ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE
APPLIED
The warning lights switch on when the ignition device is brought to the ENGINE position, but it
should switch off after a few seconds.

Electric parking brake failure


The warning light flashes in conjunction with the yellow symbol when the electric parking brake
fails.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

Low brake fluid level


The warning light flashes together with the yellow symbol when the level of the brake fluid in the
reservoir falls below the minimum level, possibly due to leaks in the circuit. .
46)

Electric parking brake on


The warning light switches on when the parking brake is engaged.
On certain versions, if the car is moving the acoustic warning will also sound.
WARNING If the warning light turns on while driving, check that the parking brake is not engaged.

86
Warning light What it means

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING FAILURE


The warning light switches on when the ignition device is brought to the ENGINE position, but it
should switch off after a few seconds.
If the warning light remains on, the power steering may have no effect and the effort required to
operate the steering wheel may increase significantly even though it is possible to steer the car. In
this case, contact a Fiat Dealership.
If the warning light comes on while driving you may not have steering assistance. Although it will still
be possible to steer the vehicle, the effort needed to operate the steering wheel could be increased:
contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
WARNING In some circumstances, factors independent of the electric power steering could cause
the warning light on the instrument panel to switch on. In this case, stop the car immediately (if you
are moving), stop the motor for about 20 seconds (taking the ignition device to the STOP position)
and then restart the motor ("READY" status). If the warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING The steering must be initialised after disconnecting the 12V battery. The warning light
turns on to indicate this. To carry out this procedure, slowly turn the steering wheel all the way from
one end to the other or drive in a straight line for about a hundred metres.
Amber warning lights

Warning light What it means

ESC SYSTEM
The warning light switches on when the ignition device is brought to the ENGINE position, but it
should switch off after a few seconds.

ESC system activation


Flashing of the warning light while driving indicates the intervention of the ESC system.

ESC system failure


If the warning light does not go out or remains on whilst driving, go to a Fiat Dealership.

Hill Holder failure


The warning light turns on to indicate a Hill Holder system failure.
In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

87
KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
Warning light What it means

PARTIAL / TOTAL DEACTIVATION OF ACTIVE SAFETY SYSTEMS


The turning on of the warning light indicates that some safety systems have been partially
deactivated by a driver's request.

REAR FOG LIGHT


The warning light switches on when the rear fog light is turned on.

ABS FAILURE
The warning light switches on when the ignition device is brought to the ENGINE position, but it
should switch off after a few seconds. The warning light will light up when the system is either
not working or not available. In this case the braking system maintains its efficiency unaltered but
without the advantage of the ABS system.
Drive carefully and contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

iTPMS
(where provided)
Low tyre pressure
The warning light switches on constantly to indicate that the tyre pressure is lower than the
recommended value, in order to guarantee long tyre life and optical electrical energy consumption,
or to indicate a slow loss of pressure.
In this way the iTPMS warns the driver that one or more tyres may be flat and probably punctured.
In this case it is advisable to restore the correct pressure value. Once the normal operating
conditions of the car are restored, carry out the Tyre reset procedure.
WARNING Do not continue driving with one or more flat tyres as handling of the car may be
compromised. Stop the car, avoiding sharp braking and steering.

iTPMS failure/iTPMS temporarily deactivated


The warning light flashes for about 75 seconds and then stays on constantly to indicate that the
system is temporarily deactivated or faulty. The system goes back to normal operation when the
operating conditions allow it. If this is not the case, carry out the Tyre reset procedure after restoring
the normal operating conditions.
If the malfunction warning persists, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

All warning lights flashing
In the event of an instrument panel display failure, all of the warning lights flash.

Message to have the warning light CONTROL SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT FAILURE
checked A control system warning light failure is indicated by a message on the instrument panel display.

WARNING

44) If the warning light does not switch on or stays on whilst driving when the ignition device is turned to ENGINE, a failure may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In this case the airbags or pretensioners may not be deployed in an impact or, in a lower number of cases,
they may be deployed accidentally. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked.
45) A failure of the warning light is indicated by the symbol appearing on the display or by the warning light blinking, depending on
the version. In this case, the warning light may not indicate a possible problem with the airbag restraint system. Before continuing, contact
a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked.
46) If the warning light comes on while driving, stop the car immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
47) If the system signals a pressure drop on a specific tyre, it is recommended to check the pressure on all four tyres. The iTPMS does not
relieve the driver from the obligation to check the tyre pressure every month; it is not to be considered a system to replace servicing or a safety
system. Tyre pressure must be checked with tyres cold. Should it become necessary for whatever reason to check pressure with warm tyres,
do not reduce pressure even though it is higher than the prescribed value, but repeat the check when tyres are cold.
48) The iTPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre pressure drops (for example when a tyre bursts). In this case, stop the car, braking with caution
and avoiding abrupt steering. The system only warns that the tyre pressure is low: it is not able to inflate them. Insufficient tyre inflation
increases electrical energy consumption, reduces the tread duration and may affect your ability to drive safely.

In Europe the characteristics of child restraint systems are ruled by the regulation ECE-R44, dividing them into five weight
groups:

Group Age Weight groups Size class/Fixing

ISO/L1

Group 0 Indicatively up to 9 months Up to 10 kg in weight ISO/L2

ISO/R1

ISO/R1

Group 0+ Indicatively up to 2 years Up to 13 kg in weight ISO/R2

ISO/R3

Indicatively from 8 months to 4
Group 1 9-18 kg ISO/F2
years
ISO/F2X

ISO/F3

Group 2 Indicatively from 3 to 7 years 15 - 25 kg –

Group 3 Indicatively from 6 to 12 years 22 - 36 kg –


All restraint devices must bear the type-approval data, together with the control mark, on a label solidly fixed to the child
restraint system which must never be removed.
Lineaccessori MOPAR® includes child restraint systems for each weight group. These devices are recommended having been
specifically designed for Fiat vehicles.

SCHEDULED
SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the car
under the best conditions. For this
reason, Fiat has planned a series of
checks and services at fixed distance
and/or time intervals, as described in
the Service Schedule.
To keep the efficiency of the car in tip-
top condition, in the following Service
Schedule pages a few additional
checks are listed that should be carried
out more frequently with respect to the
normal scheduled service deadline.
Scheduled Servicing is offered by Fiat
Dealerships according to fixed time or
kilometres/miles intervals. If, during
each operation, in addition to the ones
scheduled, the need arises for further
replacements or repairs, these may be
carried out with the owner's explicit
agreement only.
IMPORTANT NOTES
The scheduled service deadlines are
set out by the Manufacturer. Failure to
have them carried out may invalidate
the warranty.
We advise sharing any doubts
regarding the car’s proper operation
with your Fiat Dealership, before
waiting for the next scheduled service
deadline.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
LIFE
FCA has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its production
processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly "eco-compatible". To grant customers the best possible service
in terms of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Directive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of
their life, FCA is offering its customers the chance to hand over their vehicle at the end of its life without incurring any additional
costs. The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over, the last keeper or owner should not incur any
expenses as a result of it having a zero or negative market value.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, contact one of our dealerships if you are purchasing another
vehicle or an FCA-authorized collection and scrapping centre. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality
service for the collection, treatment and recycling of vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.
Similarly, to meet its obligations under European Directive 2006/66/EC on batteries, FCA requires you to comply with the
national regulations on handling both low-voltage and high-voltage lithium ion batteries (12V and 48V) at all times. This includes
consigning vehicles complete with their batteries to one of the collection and demolition centres authorized by FCA to handle
such batteries, and not disposing of them improperly, which could lead to personal injuries and/or harm to the environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from an FCA dealership or by calling the
number in the Warranty Booklet or by consulting the websites of the various FCA brands.
