20GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Never remove the igni-
tion key while the vehicle
is moving. The steering
wheel would automatically lock
as soon as you try to turn it. This
also applies when the vehicle is
being towed.
It is absolutely forbidden
to carry out whatever af-
ter-market operation in-
volving steering system or steer-
ing column modifications (e.g.: in-
stallation of anti-theft device)
that could badly affect perfor-
mance and safety, cause the lapse
of warranty and also result in
non-compliance of the vehicle
with homologation require-
ments.
IGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 4 different
positions fig. 26:
– STOP:engine off, key can be re-
moved, steering column locked. Some
electrical devices can be worked (e.g.
sound system, electric window
winders).
– MAR: drive position. All electrical
devices can be used.
– AVV: engine ignition.
– PARK:engine off, parking lights
on, steering column locked. Press but-
ton Aand turn the key to PARK.

If the ignition device is
tampered with (e.g.: at-
tempted theft), have it
checked over by a Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible.
When you get out of the
vehicle, always remove
the ignition key. This will
prevent anyone from accidental-
ly working the controls. Remem-
ber to apply the handbrake and,
if the vehicle is faced down on a
steep slope engage the first gear.
If it is facing up, engage the re-
verse gear. Never leave unsuper-
vised children in the vehicle.
STEERING COLUMN LOCK
To engage the lock: remove the
ignition key at STOPor PARKand
turn the steering wheel until it locks.
To release the lock: rock the
steering wheel slightly as you turn the
ignition key to MAR.

IMPORTANTThe electronic sys-
tem progressively blocks fuel flow to
prevent engine from overrevving. This
will lead to a progressive loss of en-
gine power. When the engine is idling,
the rev counter may indicate a grad-
ual or sudden highering of the speed.
This is normal as it takes place during
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.
