FIAT PANDA ADVENTURE
This supplement illustrates the main fea-
tures of the Fiat Panda Adventure, in ad-
dition to providing some advice for use.

Owner Handbook in which this Supple-
ment is enclosed.
TRANSMISSION
FIAT PANDA ADVENTURE
Fiat Panda Adventure is equipped
with a 4 x 4 transmission system
comprising two differentials and an
electronically controlled joint.
Thanks to this system, the insertion
of the four wheel drive takes place
automatically (i.e. without requiring
any action by the driver) and allows
for optimal distribution of drive
torque between front and rear axis,
in conditions of low adherence.
Fiat Panda Adventure runs easily
over snow, ice, mud and unmade
roads, even where slopes are fairly
steep.CONTENTS

steps and pavements and also avoid

plied only onto the front
wheel tyres.

ance with local regulations.

be fitted, only use compact chains (maxi-
mum extension beyond tyre profile 9 mm).

recommended.
Check the tension of the chains after the
first few metres have been driven.
