Text of the manual
cinquecento No need for translation. With its storied history, FiaT
® 500
(no matter how you say it) is so strongly tied to FIAT and Italy that they practically
own the number. From its 1950s introduction as “the little mouse” through its various
incarnations as the ultimate city car, Cinquecento distills down all that drivers and
designers want in a car and life: joy.
500t in Grigio
From day one, FIAT® 500 has packed more personality per square inch than
anything on the road — cobblestone or other. It may not be listed anywhere on
the sticker, but it’s clear that irreverence has been built right in, year after year.
So while the FIAT 500 has evolved in a technical sense, one thing has not
budged — its approachable, independent spirit.
® 500 design motto? Speak passionately and carry a big red pencil. Getting the
essentials right and x-ing out the superfluous, our designers are dedicated to achieving
true beauty through simplicity. 500 is proof positive. BOLD
editing
Bi-function halogen projector headlamps do double duty: they focus more light
on the post-sundown objects in your path and they make you more visible to
oncoming drivers, thanks to the lamps’ “curve-around” styling. And, of course,
their jewel-like appearance catches eyes wherever you go.
® Hands-Free Communication
1*
This standard feature enables drivers to make calls,
play music, and drive without ever taking their hands off
the steering wheel. Drivers can use steering wheel-
mounted controls, voice commands, or a combination
of both. Communicating is important. Listening to music
is important. Not driving with your knees — much,
much more important.
TomTom
® Navigation System
2 The available
TomTom
2 is an integrated driver navigation system that
helps keep FIAT
® 500 drivers from getting lost, while voice
activation commands help to keep them safe. Working
off of satellite technology, the TomTom
2 speaks several
languages (and knows its way around, quite literally)
helping to ensure drivers never lose their way. Safety is
not just about watching where you’re going, it’s about
knowing where you’re going.
*A note about this brochure: All disclaimers and disclosures can be found
on the inside back cover.
It’s only fitting that the soundtrack of every FIAT
® 500
journey should match its larger-than-life spirit. We tapped
famed producers Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine to help fill the 500’s cabin with an acoustic experience
that’s second to none. This legendary partnership between producer and engineer created what is
essentially a rolling Beats Audio
TM product — the first one of its kind in its segment.
The Beats Audio system maximizes every square inch with studio-quality sound from six premium
speakers: two 1-inch tweeters in the A-pillars, two 6.5-inch woofers located in the doors, and two
3.5-inch speakers in the rear quarter. An 8-inch Dual-Voice Coil (DVC) subwoofer is mounted in the
trunk, along with an 8-channel 368-watt amplifier with Beats Audio Digital
Sound Processing (DSP) algorithm. A FIAT 500 custom configuration like
this means you get a vehicle sound experience that lets you feel every low
and detect every high — the way the artist intended.
studio500
*Based on 2013 EPA estimated 31 city/40 highway mpg when equipped with manual transmission.
*
FIAT
® 500 regards its fuel as fine
champagne meant to be sipped, not
gulped. Its bird-like appetite is less
about willpower than it is about
more power — thanks to the
efficiency of its award-winning 1.4L
16V MultiAir
® Engine. This exclusive
FIAT technology, a decade in the making, utilizes electrohydraulic
valves for more dynamic and direct control of air and
combustion. Power is improved up to 10 percent, torque goes up
15 percent, and fuel efficiency has a 10 percent advantage over
conventional naturally aspirated engines. Emissions, in turn,
are cut an impressive 10 percent. The MultiAir ENGINE boasts 101
horsepower at 6,500 rpm and 98 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm.
So how does all that tech-speak translate to real life? Thanks to some targeted powertrain innovations, you can
count on 31 mpg zipping around town and 40 mpg flying down the highway. And with the FIAT
® 500 eco:Drive
®
application, you can train yourself to recognize and adopt driving skills that improve your driving efficiency.
Plug a USB drive into the FIAT 500 USB port to automatically store your driving data and patterns. When that
information is plugged back into your computer, the downloaded eco:Drive app analyzes your personal driving
style, then suggests ways to improve your efficiency and cut emissions. Visit fiat.com/ecodrive/us/default.htm
to download the eco:Drive program.

We know that some of you would add a dash of hot sauce to anything you order, so we put some on the table.
The all-new FIAT
® 500 Turbo delivers that extra zing you’ve been craving — a new 135-horsepower 1.4L 16v
MultiAir
® turbocharged engine, along with a more aggressive stance, sport-tuned suspension, and race-inspired interior.
The single turbocharger, twin intercoolers, and sport-tuned exhaust deliver 34 percent more power and
53 percent more torque (150 lb-ft) compared to the naturally aspirated Fiat 500 1.4L MultiAir engine.

FIAT® 500 Lounge in Argento
Rear Park Assist
3 Available on the
FIAT
® 500, standard on the 500 Cabrio.
The sensors use ultrasonic waves to alert
you when you’re about to run into trouble,
like a curb, a trash can, or another car.
Reverse-Activated Rear Wiper
Standard on the FIAT
® 500, this rear wiper
automatically turns on whenever the front
windshield wipers are running and the car is
shifted into Reverse. This helps enhance
visibility when you’re backing up.
HINDsight

Seven Air Bags
4 The FIAT
® 500 comes with a sophisticated system of seven air bags
4 to help
protect passengers in the event of a collision. In the front seating positions, this includes advanced,
multistage front air bags, front-seat side air bags for added thorax and pelvic protection, and a driver’s
knee blocker air bag. In addition, two side-curtain air bags help provide head protection in side impacts
for both front and rear passengers.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
5 When you drive you should, of course, always pay
attention. When you drive a FIAT 500, the car also pays attention. ESC
5 is designed to assist drivers in
maintaining control of their vehicles during extreme steering maneuvers. ESC senses when a vehicle is
starting to spin or plow and helps to correct the vehicle’s course by automatically controlling the throttle
and applying the brakes at individual wheels.

Fast, fun, and for the people. It’s no coincidence that the FIAT

parallels to its art-era namesake. Pop’s visual excitement is elevated by technical
talents that turn driving into high art. It’s not just a car. It’s a movement.

(1) Always use BLUE&ME® in a safe manner, with eyes on the road and hands on the wheel at all times. (2) Consult local ordinances on affixing TomTom navigation in appropriate location. (3) Always check entire surroundings before backing up. (4) The advanced front air bags
in this vehicle are certified to the new U.S. federal regulations for advanced air bags. Children 12 years old and younger should always ride buckled up in a rear seat. Infants in rear-facing child restraints should never ride in the front seat of a vehicle with a passenger front air
bag. All occupants should always wear their lap and shoulder belts properly. (5) No system, no matter how sophisticated, can repeal the laws of physics or overcome careless driving actions. Performance is limited by available traction, which snow, ice, and other conditions can
affect. When the ESC warning lamp flashes, the driver needs to use less throttle and adapt speed and driving behavior to prevailing road conditions. Always drive carefully, consistent with conditions. Always wear your seat belt. (6) SiriusXM service requires a subscription, sold
separately, after 12-month trial included with vehicle purchase. If you decide to continue your SiriusXM service at the end of your trial subscription, the plan you choose will automatically renew and bill at then-current rates until you call
SiriusXM at 1-866-635-2349 to cancel. See our Customer Agreement for complete terms at www.siriusxm.com. Programming subject to change. Sirius satellite service is available only to those at least 18 and older in the 48 contiguous USA, D.C., and PR (with coverage
limitations). SiriusXM Traffic available in select markets. See siriusxm.com/traffic for more information. Sirius, XM, and all related marks and logos are trademarks of Sirius XM Radio Inc. (7) Always sit properly with the head restraint properly adjusted. Never place anything in
front of the head restraint.
