ANTI-PINCH SAFETY DEVICE
The sun roof has an anti-pinch safety system capable
of detecting the presence of an obstacle whilst the
roof is closing: if this happens, the system intervenes

❒press button A within 5 seconds of this operation
and keep it pressed: the glass panel will complete a
full opening and closing cycle. Only release the
button at the end of this cycle.EMERGENCY MANOEUVRE

WARNING
If you are travelling in an area with
limited opportunities for vehicle
refuelling and you wish to bring fuel with you in
a petrol can, you must do so in compliance
with current regulations and using an approved
can, appropriately secured to the load securing
attachments. Anyway, by doing so, you increase
the risk of fire in case of an accident with
your vehicle.
CARGO BOX
It consists of a preformed box fig. 83, which is
located in the luggage compartment and can be used
to store objects, making it possible to have a flat
loading surface.
BONNETOPENING
Proceed as follows:
❒pull lever A fig. 84 in the direction indicated by the
arrow;
❒pull lever B fig. 85 and lift the bonnet.
❒lift the bonnet and, at the same time, release the
bonnet stay C fig. 86 from its locking device, then
insert the end of the stay into the housing D.
WARNING
The bonnet may drop suddenly if the
supporting rod is not positioned
correctly.

Use both hands to lift the bonnet . Before
lifting, check that the windscreen wiper
arms are not raised from the windscreen,
that the car is stationary and that the handbrake
is engaged.CLOSING
Proceed as follows:
❒hold the bonnet up with one hand and with the
other remove the stay C fig. 86 from the housing
D and fit it back in its locking device;
❒lower the bonnet to approximately 20 centimetres
from the engine compartment and let it drop.
Make sure that the bonnet is completely closed
and not only fastened by the safety catch by trying
to open it. If it is not perfectly closed, do not try
to press the bonnet lid down but open it and
repeat the procedure.
If the bonnet is not closed properly, the warning light
or the symbol
switch on in the instrument
panel (together with the dedicated message on the

IMPORTANT If the car is equipped with (Xenon) gas
discharge headlights, the headlight alignment is
controlled electronically, as a consequence
the
and
buttons are not present.
FOG LIGHT ALIGNMENT
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the lights checked
and adjusted, if necessary.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
The dipped beam headlights are aligned for operation
in the country where the vehicle was originally
purchased. When in countries where you drive on
the other side of the road, you need to alter the
beam direction by affixing a specially designed
self-adhesive film in order not to dazzle the vehicles
travelling in the opposite direction.
Such film is provided by Lineaccessori Fiat and is
available at Fiat Dealerships.
ABS SYSTEMABS is an integral part of the braking system which
prevents, whatever the road conditions and force
applied to the brake pedal, the wheels from locking
and consequently sliding under braking, thus ensuring
that the vehicle remains under control even during
emergency braking.
The EBD system (Electronic Braking Force
Distribution) completes the system allowing the
brake force to be distributed between the front and
rear wheels.
IMPORTANT To obtain the maximum efficiency of
the braking system, a bedding-in period of about 500
km is needed: during this period it is better to
avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged braking.
WARNING
The ABS gets the most from the
available grip, but it cannot improve it ;
you should therefore take every care when
driving on slippery surfaces and not take
unnecessary risks.
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can feel that the ABS system has come
into action because the brake pedal pulsates slightly
and the system gets noisier: it means that the car
speed should be altered to suit the type of road
surface.

WARNING
When the ABS cuts in and you feel the
brake pedal pulsating, do not raise
your foot , but keep it pressed; in doing so you
will stop in the shortest amount of space
possible depending on the current road
conditions.
WARNING
If the ABS intervenes, it is a sign that the
grip between tyre and the road surface
has reached the limit : you must slow down to
adapt the speed to the road grip available.
ABS FAILURE INDICATION
This is indicated by the
warning light on the
instrument panel together with the dedicated
message on the multifunction display (for versions/
markets where available) coming on (see “Warning
lights and messages” section).
In the case, the braking system will work as normal
without the extra capacity offered by the ABS
system. Drive carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership
to have the system checked.EBD FAILURE INDICATION
This is indicated by the warning lights
and
on
the instrument panel together with the dedicated
message on the multifunction display (for
versions/markets where available) coming on (see
“Warning lights and messages” section).
In this case, the rear wheels may suddenly lock and
the vehicle may swerve when braking sharply. Drive
carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have
the system checked.
WARNING
If only the warning light
on the
instrument panel switches on - together
with a message in the multifunction display (for
versions/markets, where provided) - stop the
car immediately and contact the nearest Fiat
Dealership. Fluid leaking from the hydraulic
system will compromise the operation of the
braking system, whether it is of the conventional
type or with ABS.

IMPORTANT When the SPORT button is pressed,
the function is activated about 5 seconds later.
IMPORTANT During acceleration, when the SPORT
function is used the steering may shudder which is
typical of a sports setting.
IMPORTANT During parking manoeuvres requiring a
lot of steering, the steering may become harder;
this is normal and is due to the intervention of the
system to protect the electric steering motor from
overheating; so, no intervention is required. When
the car is used again later on, the power steering will
work normally.Acceleration
Sudden acceleration has a very negative effect on fuel
consumption and emissions: accelerate gradually to
contain consumption.
When the SPORT function is used the consumption
figures will be slightly higher than those stated.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should
aftermarket operations involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) be carried out that could badly affect
performance and safety.This also causes the
warranty to become null and void and results in
vehicle non-compliance with type-approval
requirements.
WARNING
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-ON or
the engine must be running), remove the main
fuse that protects the electric power steering.
