ONBOARD
DIAGNOSTIC
SYSTEM
Operation
The OBD (On Board Diagnostic system)
carries out a continuous diagnosis of
the components of the vehicle related
to emissions.
It also alerts the driver of when these
components are no longer in peak
condition by switching on the
warning light on the instrument
panel (see “Warning Lights And
Messages” paragraph in this chapter).
The aim of the OBD system (On Board
Diagnostic) is to:
Monitor the efficiency of the system
Indicate an increase in emissions
Indicate the need to replace
damaged components
The vehicle also has a connector, which
can interface with appropriate tools,
that makes it possible to read the error
codes stored in the electronic control
units together with a series of specific
parameters for engine operation and
diagnosis. This check can be carried
out by your authorized dealer.
Note: After eliminating a fault, to check
the system completely, your authorized
dealer is obliged to run tests and, if
necessary certain road tests.
Onboard Diagnostic
System (OBD II)
Cybersecurity
Your vehicle is required to have an
Onboard Diagnostic system (OBD II)
and a connection port to allow access
to information related to the
performance of your emissions
controls. Authorized service technicians
may need to access this information to
assist with the diagnosis and service of
your vehicle and emissions system.
Warning!
ONLY an authorized service technician
should connect equipment to the OBD II
connection port in order to diagnose or
service your vehicle.
If unauthorized equipment is connected
to the OBD II connection port, such as a
driver-behavior tracking device, it may:
Be possible that vehicle systems,
including safety related systems, could be
impaired or a loss of vehicle control could
occur that may result in an accident
involving serious injury or death.
Access, or allow others to access,
information stored in your vehicle systems,
including personal information.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

Warning!
Always make sure the head restraint is in
its upright position when the seat is to be
used by an occupant who is not in a child
restraint. Sitting in a seat with the head
restraint in its lowered position could result
in serious injury or death in a collision.
Locating The LATCH
Anchorages
The lower anchorages are round bars
that are found at the rear of the seat
cushion where it meets the seatback,
below the anchorage symbols on the
seatback. They are just visible when
you lean into the rear seat to install the
child restraint. You will easily feel them if
you run your finger along the gap
between the seatback and seat
cushion.
Locating The Upper Tether
Anchorages
There are tether strap anchorages
behind each rear seating position
located in the panel between the rear
seatback and the rear window. They are
found under a plastic cover with the
tether anchorage symbol on it.
LATCH-compatible child restraint
systems will be equipped with a rigid
bar or a flexible strap on each side.
Each will have a hook or connector to
attach to the lower anchorage and a
way to tighten the connection to the
anchorage. Forward-facing child
restraints and some rear-facing child
restraints will also be equipped with a
tether strap. The tether strap will have a
hook at the end to attach to the top
tether anchorage and a way to tighten
the strap after it is attached to the
anchorage.

SAFETY

Center Seat LATCH
Warning!
Do not install a child restraint in the
center position using the LATCH system.
This position is not approved for installing
child seats using the LATCH attachments.
You must use the seat belt and tether
anchor to install a child seat in the center
seating position.
Never use the same lower anchorage to
attach more than one child restraint. Please
refer to “Installing The LATCH-Compatible
Child Restraint System” for typical
installation instructions.
Always follow the directions of the child
restraint manufacturer when installing
your child restraint. Not all child restraint
systems will be installed as described
here.
To Install A LATCH-Compatible
Child Restraint
If the selected seating position has a
Switchable Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) seat belt, stow the seat
belt, following the instructions below.
See the section “Installing Child
Restraints Using The Vehicle Seat Belt”
to check what type of seat belt each
seating position has. 1. Loosen the adjusters on the lower
straps and on the tether strap of the
child seat so that you can more easily
attach the hooks or connectors to the
vehicle anchorages.
2. Place the child seat between the
lower anchorages for that seating
position. For some second row seats,
you may need to recline the seat and /
or raise the head restraint to get a
better fit. If the rear seat can be moved
forward and rearward in the vehicle, you
may wish to move it to its rear-most
position to make room for the child
seat. You may also move the front seat
forward to allow more room for the child
seat.
3. Attach the lower hooks or
connectors of the child restraint to the
lower anchorages in the selected
seating position.
4. If the child restraint has a tether
strap, connect it to the top tether
anchorage. See the section “Installing
Child Restraints Using The Top Tether
Anchorage” for directions to attach a
tether anchor.
5. Tighten all of the straps as you push
the child restraint rearward and
downward into the seat. Remove slack
in the straps according to the child
restraint manufacturer’s instructions.
6. Test that the child restraint is
installed tightly by pulling back and forth
on the child seat at the belt path. It
should not move more than 1 inch
(25.4 mm) in any direction.
How To Stow An Unused
Switchable-ALR (ALR) Seat Belt
When using the LATCH attaching
system to install a child restraint, stow
all ALR seat belts that are not being
used by other occupants or being used
to secure child restraints. An unused
belt could injure a child if they play with
it and accidentally lock the seat belt
retractor. Before installing a child
restraint using the LATCH system,
buckle the seat belt behind the child
restraint and out of the child’s reach. If
the buckled seat belt interferes with the
child restraint installation, instead of
buckling it behind the child restraint,
route the seat belt through the child
restraint belt path and then buckle it.
Do not lock the seat belt. Remind all
children in the vehicle that the seat belts
are not toys and that they should not
play with them.

Proceed as follows:
Remove connector from socket to
disconnect sensor (battery status
monitoring) installed on the negative

and having closed the driver side door,
wait at least one minute before
disconnecting the electrical supply from
the battery. When reconnecting the
electrical supply to the battery, make
sure that the ignition is in the STOP
mode and the driver side door is
closed.SPEED LIMITER

TIRE REPAIR KIT —
IF EQUIPPED
Description
If a tire is punctured, you can make a
first emergency repair using the Tire
Repair Kit located in the rear storage
area under the load platform.
The Tire Repair Kit includes:
Sealant cartridge containing the
sealing fluid.
Filler tube.
Adhesive label with the writing "Max.
50 mph (80 km/h)”, to be attached in a
position easily visible to the driver (eg.
on the dashboard) after repairing the
tire.
Air compressor, complete with
pressure gauge and connectors.
An instruction leaflet for reference in
prompt and correct use of the Tire
Repair Kit, which must be then given to
the personnel dealing with the
sealant-treated tire.
A pair of protective gloves.
Some adaptors, for inflating different
elements.
Note: The sealing fluid is effective with
external temperatures of between -40°F
(-40°C) and 122°F (50°C). The sealing
fluid has an expiration date. To use the Tire Repair Kit, proceed as
follows:
1. Stop the vehicle in a position where
you can repair the tire safely. You
should be as far as possible from the
side of the road, and in a position that
is not dangerous for oncoming traffic.
Engage the hazard warning flashers,
remove the safety triangle from the
luggage compartment, and place it at a
suitable distance from the vehicle to
make other drivers aware of your
presence.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the
wheel with the deflated tire) is in a
position that is near to the ground. This
will allow the tire repair kit hoses to
reach the valve stem and keep the tire
repair kit flat on the ground.
3. Shift the gear selector to PARK (P).
4. Apply the electric parking brake and
turn the engine OFF.
