GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
The GSI (Gear Shift Indicator) system advises the
driver to change gear through a specific indication on
the control panel. Through the GSI, the driver is
notified that changing gear will allow a reduction in
fuel consumption.
When the SHIFT UP icon (
SHIFT) fig. 5 is shown
on the display, the GSI is advising the driver to
engage a higher gear, while the SHIFT DOWN
(
SHIFT) icon advises the driver to engage a lower
gear.
The indication in the instrument panel remains on
until the driver changes gear or the driving
conditions return to a situation where changing gear
is not required to improve consumption.

Lane change by other vehicles
Vehicles suddenly changing lane, getting in the driving
lane of the car fig. 76 and inside the laser sensor
operating range, may cause system activation.IMPORTANT
WARNING
The system is an aid for the driver who
must never reduce attention while
driving.The responsibility always rests with the
driver, who must take into account the traffic
conditions for driving in complete safety.The
driver must always maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle in front .
WARNING
If the driver depresses the brake pedal
fully or carries out a fast steering during
system operation, the automatic braking
function may stop (e.g. to allow a possible
manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle).The laser sensor may have limited or
absent operation due to weather
conditions such as: heavy rain, hail, thick
fog, heavy snow, formation of ice layers on the
windscreen.

DUALDRIVE ELECTRIC POWER
STEERINGThis only operates with the key turned to MAR and
the engine started. The steering allows the force
required at the steering wheel to be adjusted to suit
driving conditions.
IMPORTANT When turning the ignition key quickly,
full power steering functionality can be achieved after
a few seconds.
CITY FUNCTION ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
Press button CITY fig. 78 to activate/deactivate the
function. The activation of the function is signalled by
the word CITY on the display (in some versions it
is signalled by the word CITY appearing on the
instrument panel).When the CITY function is on, the steering wheel
effort is lighter and parking operations are easier:
therefore this function is particularly useful for
driving in city centres.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to carr y out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect performance and
safety, invalidate warranty and also result in
non-compliance of the car with type approval
requirements.
IMPORTANT During parking manoeuvres requiring a
lot of steering, the steering may become harder;
this is normal and is due to the intervention of the
system to protect the electric steering motor from
overheating, so no intervention is required. When
the car is used again later on, the power steering will
work normally.
