WARNING
If the remote control battery is flat , the
system can be engaged by inser ting
the metal key in the door lock as described
previously: in this case, the device only remains
active for the rear doors.
Switching the device on
The system is automatically enabled on all the doors
by pressing button
twice on the key with remote
control.
The direction indicators flash twice to let you know
that the device is active.
If one or more of the doors is not perfectly shut, the
dead lock device will not be activated, thus
preventing a person getting into the car through the
open door and, on shutting, it, remaining stuck
inside the passenger compartment.
Switching the device off
The system is disabled automatically on every door
when:
❒by unlocking the doors;
❒by turning the ignition key to the ON position.
ALARM(for versions/markets, where provided)
The alarm, in addition to all the previously described
remote control functions, is controlled by the
receiver located under the dashboard near the fuse
box.
ALARM TRIPPING
The alarm trips in the following cases:
❒unauthorised opening of a door, the bonnet, the
tailgate or a sliding side door (if present)
(perimeter protection)
❒unauthorized operation of the starting device (key
turned on using a key that is not enabled)
❒cutting of the battery leads
❒moving presence inside the passenger
compartment (volumetric protection)
❒anomalous lifting/tilting of the vehicle.
Depending on the market, the activation of the alarm
causes the activation of the siren and the direction
indicators (for about 26 seconds). Alarm tripping and
the number of cycles depend on the sales market.
There are a maximum number of acoustic/visual
cycles. When this is reached the system returns to
normal operation.
Volumetric and antilifting protections are disabled by
pressing the control button installed on the front
dashboard (see paragraph "Antilift protections).

Activation
Turn the ring to
to operate the rear window
wiper as follows:
❒intermittent operation if the windscreen wiper is
off;

the control active.
With the windscreen wiper on and reverse gear
engaged, rear window wiping will be continuous.
Pushing the stalk towards the dashboard (temporary
position) the rear window washer jet will activate.
Keeping the stalk pushed for more than half a second
also the rear window wiper will activate. Releasing
the stalk will activate the smart washing function, as
described for the windscreen wiper.
Deactivation
The function stops when the stalk is released.
Do not use the rear window wiper to

REAR WINDOW WIPER/WASHER
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This only operates with the ignition turned to MAR.

Engagement/ disengagement of the ASR
system
The ASR system switches on automatically each time
the engine is started.
When travelling, the ASR can be switched off and on
again pressing button fig. 91 located among the
controls in the dashboard.
The switching off is shown by the LED in the actual
switch coming on together with a message shown
in the multifunction display (for versions/markets,
where provided).
If the ASR is switched off when driving, it is
automatically switched on again when the vehicle is
started up.
When travelling on snowy roads with snow chains, it
may be helpful to turn the ASR off: in fact, in these
conditions, the driving wheels skidding when moving
off gives you better traction.
WARNING
Do not take unnecessary risks, even if
your vehicle is fitted with this system.
Your driving style must always be suited to the
road conditions, visibility and traffic .The driver
is always responsible for road safety.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
In the event of a failure, the ASR system will be
automatically switched off and warning light
will
appear permanently on the instrument panel along
with a message on the multifunction display (for
versions/markets where provided) (see “Warning
lights and messages” section). In this case, contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

TRACTION PLUS SYSTEM(for versions/markets, where provided)
Traction Plus is a help with driving and setting off in
poor grip conditions (snow, ice, mud, etc.) which
allows the drive force to be evenly distributed over
the same axle when both wheels are slipping.
In effect, Traction Plus acts by braking the wheels
with poor grip (or those slipping more than the
others), thereby transferring the drive force to those
which have more grip on the ground.
This function can be turned on manually by pressing
the T+ button fig. 92 on the dashboard and works
below a level of 30 km/h. Over this speed, it is
automatically deactivated (the LED on the button is
still on) and it is reactivated again when the speed
is below 30 km/h.Traction Plus operation
The system is deactivated when starting up. To
activate the "Traction Plus" system, press the button
(T+ fig. 92): the LED on the button switches on.
The activation of the Traction Plus system involves
the following functions being switched on:
❒inhibition of the ASR function, in order to fully
exploit the engine torque;
❒the differential locking effect on the front axle,
through the braking system, to improve traction
on irregular grounds.
If the "Traction Plus" system is faulty, the "general
failure" instrument panel warning light
comes on
steady.

All restraint devices must bear the type-approval
data along with the control mark on a label firmly
secured to the child seat which must never be
removed.
Over 1.50 m in height, from the point of view of
restraint systems, children are considered as adults
and wear seat belts normally.
Lineaccessori Fiat has child seats for each weight
group. These devices are recommended, having been
specifically designed for Fiat cars.
WARNING
DANGER: Do not put cradle seats facing
backwards on the front seat if the front
passenger air bag is enabled.
Deployment of the air bag in an
accident could cause fatal injuries to the child.
It is advisable to carr y children on the rear seat ,
which is the most protected position in the
event of an accident . Child seats must not be
fitted on the front seat of vehicles with a
passenger air bag; their deployment in
an accident , however serious, could cause fatal
injuries to the child. If necessary, children can
travel in the front seat , if the front passenger air
bag can be disabled. In this case, check that
the air bag is actually deactivated by making
sure the “ warning light appears on the
instrument panel (see “Front passenger air bag”
in the “Front air bags” section). Also, the
passenger seat should be as far back as possible
to avoid contact between the child seat and
the dashboard.

FRONT AIRBAGSThe vehicle is fitted with front airbags for driver and
passenger (for versions/markets where provided).
The front driver/passenger airbags (for versions/
markets, where provided) are designed to protect
the front-seat occupants in the event of head-on
crashes of medium-high severity, by placing the bag
between the occupant and the steering wheel or
dashboard.
Non-activation in other types of crash (side-on
collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) is therefore
not a sign of system malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the bag to inflate, if
necessary, in the event of a head-on crash.The bag will inflate instantaneously, placing itself
between the front occupant's body and the
structures which could cause injury. It will deflate
immediately afterwards.
Front driver/passenger airbags (for versions/markets,
where provided) are not a replacement for, but
rather a complement to, the seat belts, which should
be worn at all times as specified by law in Europe
and most non-European countries.
In the event of an impact, those not wearing a seat
belt will move forward and come into contact with
the bag which is still inflating. The protection offered
by the bag is compromised in these circumstances.
Front airbags may not be activated in the following
situations:
❒head-on impacts against highly deformable objects
that do not affect the front surface of the vehicle
(e.g. front wing hitting a guard rail);
❒jamming of the vehicle underneath other vehicles
or protective barriers (e.g. underneath a truck or
a guard rail); in this case, the bags would offer
no additional protection with respect to the seat
belt and their deployment is unnecessary. Lack
of deployment in such cases is consequently not
the sign of a fault.
