KNOWING YOUR CAR

129)Before starting any servicing
operation, stop the engine and remove the
key from the ignition switch to operate
the steering lock, particularly when the
wheels do not touch the ground. If this is
not possible (for example if the key needs
to be turned to MAR or the engine must be
running), remove the main fuse that
protects the electric power steering.START&STOP
SYSTEM
130) 131) 132) 133)
46)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The Start&Stop system automatically
stops the engine each time the car
is stationary and starts it again when
the driver wants to move off.
In this way, the vehicle efficiency is
increased, by reducing consumption,
dangerous gas emissions and sound
pollution.
OPERATING MODE
Stopping the engine
With manual transmission: with the car
stationary, the engine stops with the
transmission in neutral and the clutch
pedal released.
With Dualogic gearbox: the engine
stops if the car is at a standstill and the
brake pedal is pressed. This condition
can be maintained even if the brake
pedal is not depressed, if the gear lever
is in position N (Neutral).NOTE The engine can only be stopped
automatically over about 10 km/h, to
prevent the engine from being
repeatedly stopped when driving at
walking pace.
Stopping of the engine is indicated by
the warning light or the symbol
on
the instrument panel switching on
(on some versions, together with a
message on the display).
Restarting the engine
With manual transmission: press the
clutch pedal.
With Dualogic gearbox: if the gear lever
is in position N (Neutral), place it in
any other gear, otherwise release the
brake pedal or move the gear lever
to+,–or R (Reverse).
MANUAL SYSTEM
ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
The system can be activated/
deactivated by pressing the button A
fig. 79 on the dashboard.
With the system off, the warning light or
the symbol
appear on the
instrument panel (with a message for
versions with colour display).
Start&Stop mode will be active
whenever the engine is started.

STARTING AND DRIVING

WARNING
143)Modifications or repairs to the electric
system that are not carried out properly
or do not take the system technical
specifications into account can cause
malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
144)Halogen bulbs contain pressurised
gas, in the case of breakage they may
burst causing glass fragments to be
projected outwards.
145)Only replace the light bulbs when the
engine is off and in a position that does
not interfere with traffic and lets you safely
replace them (see the description in the
“Replacement” paragraph). Also ensure
that the engine is cold, to prevent the risk
of burns.
146)Before replacing the bulb, wait for the
exhaust ducts to cool down: DANGER
OF SCALDING!147)Due to the high power supply voltage,
gas discharge bulbs (Xenon) should only
be replaced by specialised personnel:
danger of death! Contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
49)Halogen bulbs must be handled
holding the metallic part only. Touching the
transparent part of the bulb with your
fingers may reduce the intensity of the
emitted light and even reduce the lifespan
of the bulb. In the event of accidental
contact, wipe the bulb with a cloth
moistened with alcohol and let the bulb
dry.
50)Where possible, it is advisable to have
bulbs changed at a Fiat Dealership. The
correct operation and direction of the
external lights are absolutely essential for
the safety of the car and of compliance
with the law.
51)The intervention must be carried out
taking all precautions necessary to avoid
damaging the bodywork (please use a
sufficiently rigid and appropriately thick
plastic card).
