The acceptance by the system of the
requested driving mode is signalled by
the LED, located besides the symbol,
coming on, and by the corresponding
symbol appearing on the instrument
panel display.
When the engine is started, the system
usually maintains the driving mode that
was active before the engine was
stopped. For versions/markets where
provided, on start-up, the system is set
to the "Auto" mode.
"Auto" MODE
Recommended mode for normal
driving, aimed at comfort and safety in
normal grip and driving conditions. This
mode also reduces fuel consumption,
since it automatically disconnects the
transmission from the rear wheels if the
road and driving conditions allow it, in
addition to changing drive torque
distribution between the front and rear
axles.
Activation
Starting with the "All Weather" mode
active, turn the ring-nut anticlockwise
and hold it in this position for at least
half a second, until the relative LED
illuminates and the selected mode
appears on the display. The LED of the
mode selected previously will go out atthe same time. Once released, the
ring-nut returns to the central position.
Starting with the "Sport" mode active,
turn the ring-nut clockwise and hold it
in this position for at least half a
second, until the relative LED
illuminates and the selected mode
appears on the display. The LED of the
mode selected previously will go out at
the same time. Once released, the
ring-nut returns to the central position.
“All Weather” MODE
This driving mode is intended for safety
in poor vehicle grip conditions
(wet/slippery road surface, rain, snow).
It is also recommended for driving on
unpaved roads or off-road.
Activation
Starting with the "Auto" mode active,
turn the ring-nut clockwise and hold it
in this position for at least half a
second, until the relative LED
illuminates and the selected mode
appears on the display. The LED of the
mode selected previously will go out at
the same time. Once released, the
ring-nut returns to the central position.
Starting from the active "Sport" mode,
turn the ring nut anticlockwise, keeping
it in this position for at least half a
second, and in any case until the
relevant LED turns on, and the selectedmode is shown on the display. The LED
of the mode selected previously will go
out at the same time. Once released,
the ring-nut returns to the central
position.
"Sport" MODE
This mode gives the most enjoyable
sporty driving experience, however, it
increases fuel consumption. Traction is
optimised to improve the car's
road-holding, also when cornering.
Activation
Starting with the "Auto" mode active,
turn the ring-nut anticlockwise and hold
it in this position for at least half a
second, until the relative LED
illuminates and the selected mode
appears on the display. The LED of the
mode selected previously will go out at
the same time. Once released, the
ring-nut returns to the central position.
Starting with the "All Weather" mode
active, turn the ring nut clockwise,
keeping it in this position for at least half
a second, and in any case until the
relevant LED turns on, and the selected
mode is shown on the display. The LED
of the mode selected previously will go
out at the same time. Once released,
the ring-nut returns to the central
position.

STARTING AND DRIVING

152)The space-saver wheel cannot be
fitted with snow chains. If a front (drive) tyre
is punctured and chains are needed, use a
standard wheel from the rear axle and
install the space-saver wheel on the rear
axle. In this way, with two normal drive
wheels at the front axle, it is possible to
use snow chains (this instruction is also
valid for 4x4 versions).
153)Never tamper with the inflation valve.
Never introduce tools of any kind between
the rim and the tyre. Check tyre and
space-saver wheel pressures regularly,
complying with the values given in the
"Technical specifications" chapter.
154)The jack is a tool developed and
designed only for changing a wheel, if a
tyre gets punctured or damaged, on the
vehicle with which it is supplied or on other
vehicles of the same model. Any other use,
e.g. to jack up other vehicle models or
different things, is strictly prohibited. Never
use it to carry out maintenance or repairs
under the vehicle or to change
summer/winter wheels and vice versa: we
advise you to contact a Fiat Dealership.
Never go under the raised vehicle: use it
only in the positions indicated. Do not use
the jack for loads higher than the one
shown on its label. Never start the engine
with car raised. If the car is raised more
than necessary, everything can become
more unstable, with the risk of the car
dropping violently. Thus, lift the car only as
needed in order to access the space-saver
spare wheel.155)When turning the jack handle make
sure that it can turn freely without scraping
your hand against the ground. The moving
components of the jack ("worm screw" and
joints) can also cause injuries: do not touch
them. If you come into contact with
lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.FIX&GO KIT
