SAFETY FUNCTIONS
In engine cut-out conditions through the Start&Stop
system, if the driver unfastens his/her seat belt and
opens the driver’s door or the passenger door, the
engine can be restarted only by using the key.
The driver is notified of this condition both by a buzzer
and through an information message in the display and
by the warning light fig. 98 on the instrument panel
flashing.
ENERGY SAVING FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If, after the engine has been automatically restarted, the
driver does not take any action for a period of about
three minutes, the Start&Stop system will definitively
stop the engine to avoid fuel consumption. In these
cases, the engine can be restarted only by using the key. RESTARTING CONDITIONS
For reasons of comfort, limiting pollutant emissions and
safety purposes, the power unit can restart automatically
without any action on behalf of the driver if certain
conditions are met, including:
❒battery not sufficiently charged;
❒reduced braking system pressure, e.g. following the
brake pedal being pressed repeatedly;
❒car in motion, for example when driving on steep
roads;
❒stopping the engine through the Start&Stop system
for more than about three minutes;
❒automatic climate control system for establishing a
comfortable temperature or enabling the MAX –
DEF function.
With a gear engaged, the engine can be automatically
restarted only by fully depressing the clutch pedal.
The driver is asked to perform this operation through
a message on the instrument panel and, where provided,
by the warning light fig. 97 on the instrument panel
flashing.
Notes
If the clutch is not depressed when three minutes have
elapsed since the engine was stopped, the engine can
only be restarted using the key.
In cases when the engine stops and this is not desired,
due for example to the clutch pedal being released
sharply with a gear engaged, if the Start&Stop system is
activated, the engine can be restarted by fully depressing
the clutch pedal or by putting the gear lever into
neutral.

DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm up the engine at low or high revs when
the car is stationary; this causes the engine to warm up
more slowly, thereby increasing fuel consumption and
emissions. It is therefore advisable to move off
immediately, slowly, avoiding high speeds: in this way the
engine will warm up more quickly.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid accelerating when stopped at traffic lights or
before switching off the engine. The latter action, like
double-clutching, is unnecessary and causes increase of
consumption and pollution.
Gear selection
As soon as the conditions of the traffic and road allow,
use a higher gear. Using a low gear for faster
acceleration will increase consumption. In the same way
improper use of a high gear increases consumption,
emissions and engine wear. Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof
after use. These accessories lower air penetration and
adversely affect consumption levels. When transporting
particularly large objects, use a trailer if possible.
Electrical devices
Use electrical devices only for the amount of time
needed. Rear heated window, additional headlights,
windscreen wipers and heater fan need a considerable
amount of energy, therefore increasing the requirement
of current increases fuel consumption (up to +25% in
the urban cycle).
Climate control system
The climate control system is an additional load which
greatly affects the engine leading to higher consumption
(on average up to +20%). When the temperature
outside the car permits it, use the air vents where
possible.
Devices for aerodynamic control
The use of non-certified devices for aerodynamic
control may adversely affect air drag and consumption
levels.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below
are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests
set down by relevant European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring
consumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that
simulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: drive simulating the driving of the
car out of town with frequent acceleration in all
gears; the speed varies from 0 to 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: the weighting is around 37%
urban cycle and 63% extra-urban cycle.IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations,
weather conditions, driving style, general conditions of
the car, trim level/equipment/accessories, load, climate
control system, roof rack, other situations that affect air
drag may lead to different fuel consumption levels than
those measured.
Fuel consumption according to the current European directive (litres/100 km)
