EBD failure
If warning lights > and x light up together with the
message on the reconfigurable multifunction display
(where provided) (see section “Warning lights and
messages”) this indicates a fault in the EBD system.
In this case with sharp braking the rear wheels might
lock too early, with the possibility of skidding. Drive
extremely carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to
have the system checked.
WARNING
If the warning light x comes on together with the message on the
reconfigurable multifunction display, stop the car immediately and contact
the nearest Fiat Dealership. Fluid leaks from the hydraulic system, in fact,
can compromise the braking system, both traditional systems and systems
with ABS.
FAILURE WARNINGS
ABS failure
If warning light > lights up together with the message
on the reconfigurable multifunction display (where
provided) (see section “Warning lights and messages”)
this indicates a fault in the ABS system.
In this case the braking system will still be effective,
although without the anti-lock device. Drive carefully
to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have the system
checked.
