necessary, go to a Fiat Dealership,
taking an ID document and the car
ownership documents.SAFE LOCK DEVICE(for versions/markets, where provided)
2)
It prevents the opening of the doors
from inside the passenger
compartment, serving as an obstacle to
break-in attempts (e.g. broken
window). We recommend that you
activate the device each time you park
your car.
Device activation: double press the
button of the key. The direction
indicators flash 3 times and the LED
above the internal button flashes to
indicate that the device has been
activated
fig. 4. The device does not
switch on if one or more doors are not
properly shut.Device deactivation: press button
of the key or rotate the ignition key to
MAR.
WARNING
1)Press button B fig. 3 only with the key
away from your body, specifically from your
eyes and from objects which could get
damaged (e.g. your clothes). Do not leave
the key unattended, to prevent people,
especially children, from inadvertently
pressing the button.
2)Once the safe lock system is engaged, it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the car. Therefore, before getting out
of the car check that there is no-one left
on board.

STOP/START SYSTEM
HANDLINGThe dual-zone automatic climate
control manages the Stop/Start system
(engine off and vehicle at a standstill)
in order to guarantee sufficient comfort
inside the vehicle.
IMPORTANT In particularly severe
climate conditions it is recommended to
limit the use of the Stop/Start system
to prevent the compressor from
continuously switching on and off, with
consequent rapid misting of the
windows and accumulation of humidity
with unpleasant smells in the passenger
compartment.
IMPORTANT When the Stop/Start
system is on (engine off and vehicle at a
standstill), the automatic recirculation
management is turned off always taking
air in from outside, to reduce the
probability of the windows misting up
(as the compressor is off).
WARNING
19)It is inadvisable to use internal air
recirculation when the outside temperature
is low, since the windows could mist up
rapidly.
WARNING
5)The climate control system detects the
passenger compartment temperature
using a mean radiant temperature sensor
located in the interior rear view mirror
and protected by a specific cover.
Obstructing the field of view of this sensor
with any object could cause the climate
control system to operate with less than
optimal efficiency.
WARNING
2)The system uses R134a coolant which
does not pollute the environment in the
event of accidental leakage. Under no
circumstances use R12 fluid, which is
incompatible with the components of the
system.
EXTERIOR LIGHTSThe ignition key has to be in the MAR
position for the exterior lights to come
on.DAYTIME RUNNING
LIGHTS (DRL)"Daytime Running Lights"
(for versions/markets, where provided)
20) 21)
With the ignition key at MAR and ring
nut A fig. 25 turned toOthe daytime
running lights are activated
automatically; the other lights and
interior lighting remain off.25

"FOLLOW ME HOME"
DEVICEThis allows the space in front of the
vehicle to be lit for a set time.
Activation: with the ignition key turned
to STOP or removed, pull the stalk
towards the steering wheel within
2 minutes from when the engine is
turned off.
Each time the stalk is moved, the lights
stay on for an extra 30 seconds up to
a maximum of 210 seconds; then
the lights are switched off automatically.
Also, each time the stalk is operated,
the
warning light on the
instrument panel switches on. The
display shows a message and the time
set for the function.
Thewarning light comes on when
the stalk is first moved and stays on
until the function is automatically
deactivated. Each movement of the
stalk only increases the amount of time
the lights stay on.
Deactivation: keep the stalk pulled
towards the steering wheel for more
than two seconds.
WARNING
20)The daytime running lights are an
alternative to the dipped beam headlights
for driving in countries where it is
compulsory to have lights on during the
day; where it is not compulsory, the use of
daytime running lights is permitted.
21)Daytime running lights cannot replace
dipped beam headlights when driving at
night or through tunnels. The use of
daytime running lights is governed by the
highway code of the country in which
you are driving. Comply with legal
requirements.
WINDOW CLEANINGWINDSCREEN
WIPER/WASHER
6) 7)
This operates only with the ignition key
turned to MAR.
Ring nut A fig. 26 has four different
positions:
windscreen wiper off.intermittent operation.continuous slow operation.continuous fast operation.
Move the stalk upwards (unstable
position) to limit operation to the time
for which the stalk is held in this
position. When released, the stalk will
return to its default position and the
windscreen wiper will be automatically
stopped.

With ring nut A in position
, the
windscreen wiper will automatically
adapt its operating speed to the speed
of the vehicle.
With the windscreen wipers
operational, if reverse gear is engaged,
the rear window wiper is automatically
activated.
"Smart washing" functionPull the lever towards the steering
wheel (unstable position) to activate the
windscreen washer.
Keeping the stalk pulled for more than
half a second, with just one movement
it is possible to operate the washer
jet and the wiper at the same time.
The wiper stops working three strokes
after the stalk is released.
On some versions, a further stroke after
approximately 6 seconds completes
the cycle.RAIN SENSOR(for versions/markets, where provided)
22)
8) 9)
This is located behind the interior rear
view mirror, in contact with the
windscreen and can detect the
presence of rain and, consequently,
manage the cleaning of the windscreen
in accordance with the amount of
water on the screen.Activation: rotate the ring nut A fig. 26
to position
: the windscreen wiper
stroke frequency is thus adjusted in
accordance with the amount of water
on the windscreen. The activation of the
sensor is signalled by a "stroke" to
show that the command has been
acquired.
Deactivation: move the stalk ring nut
away from the position
or turn
the ignition key to STOP. If the ignition
key is turned to the STOP position
leaving the ring nut A in position
,
no wiping cycle is performed at the next
startup (ignition key to the MAR
position) even in the case of rain.
REAR WINDOW
WIPER/WASHER
10)
This operates only with the ignition key
turned to MAR.
Activation: turn the ring nut B fig. 26
from position
to position
to
activate the rear window wiper
as follows:
❒in intermittent mode when the
windscreen wiper is not operating;
❒in synchronous mode (at half the
speed of the windscreen wiper) when
the windscreen wiper is operating;
❒in continuous mode with reverse
engaged.With the windscreen wiper on and
reverse gear engaged, rear window
wiping will be continuous in the same
way.
Pushing the stalk towards the
dashboard (unstable position) the rear
window washer jet will activate. Keep
the stalk pushed for more than half
a second to activate the rear window
wiper as well. Releasing the stalk will
activate the smart washing function, as
described for the windscreen wiper.
Deactivation: release the lever.
WARNING
22)Make sure the device is switched off
whenever the windscreen must be
cleaned.
WARNING
6)Do not use the screen wiper to remove
layers of snow or ice from the windscreen.
In such conditions, the windscreen wiper
may be subjected to excessive stress
and the motor cut-out switch, which
prevents operation for a few seconds, may
intervene. If operation is not restored
(even after turning the key and restarting
the vehicle engine), contact a Fiat
Dealership.
7)Do not operate the windscreen wiper
with blades lifted from the windscreen.
