peated whenever the instrument panel is
turned off.INDICATIONS OF ATTEMPTS

mote control in the lock.

tain electrical devices (e.g.: sound sys-
tem, central door locking, electronic
alarm, etc.) can work.
❒MAR: driving position. All electrical
devices are powered.
❒AVV: engine starting.

to engage the first gear. If the car is
facing downhill, engage the reverse
gear. Never leave unsupervised chil-
dren in the car.
WARNINGIt is absolutely forbidden to
carry out whatever after-
market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifica-
tions (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect per-
formance and safety, cause the lapse
of warranty and also result in non-
compliance of the car with homolo-
gation requirements.
WARNING
Never remove the ignition
key while the car is moving.
The steering wheel would automati-
cally lock as soon as you try to turn
it. This also applies when the car is
being towed.

INSTRUMENTS
Instrument background color and type
may vary according to the version.
SPEEDOMETER fig. 17
It shows the car speed.
DASHBOARD LIGHTING
ADJUSTMENT (Brightness sensor)
(versions Sport with reconfigurable
multifunction display)
The versions Sport with reconfigurable
multifunction Display are provided with
a brightness sensor (located inside the
tachometer), able to detect the environ-
ment light conditions and, depending on
the measurement, to adjust the operat-
ing mode of the dashboard.
The instrument operates as follows:
❒in “daylight” mode, the display can be
set on 8 different levels, the dashboard
graphics are turned off and all the in-
dexes are fully lighted and cannot be
adjusted;
❒in “night” mode, the display, the graph-
ics and the indexes can be set on 8 dif-
ferent levels. The brightness of the bi-
zone automatic climate control system
display and of the car radio display is
accordingly adjusted.REV. COUNTER fig. 18
Rev counter shows engine rpm.
On diesel versions the rev counter end
scale value is 6000 rpm.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection
control system gradually shuts off the flow
of fuel when the engine is “over-revving”
resulting in a gradual loss of engine pow-
er.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter
may indicate a gradual or sudden speed in-
crease. This is normal as it takes place dur-
ing normal operation, for example when
activating the climate control system or
the fan. In particular a slow change in the
speed preserves the battery charge.
fig. 18F0Q0607mfig. 17F0Q0606m
The brightness level depends on the set-
tings previously set by means of the Setup
Menu of the reconfigurable multifunctional
display (see “Dimmer” at paragraph “Re-
configurable multifunctional display”).
When travelling, the graphics lighting may
turn on if the lighting in the passenger
compartment changes from “daylight” to
“night” condition (e.g. when entering a
tunnel).
