RESTARTING
CONDITIONS
For reasons of comfort, limiting harmful
emissions and safety purposes, the
power unit can restart automatically
without any action on the part of the
driver if certain conditions are met,
including:
battery not sufficiently charged;
reduced braking system vacuum
(e.g. if the brake pedal is pressed
repeatedly);
vehicle in motion (e.g. when driving
on roads with a gradient);
stopping the engine through the
Start&Stop system for more than about
three minutes.
automatic climate control system for
adjusting the thermal comfort level or
to enable MAX-DEF function.
With a gear engaged, the engine can
be automatically restarted only by
fully depressing the clutch pedal. The
driver is asked to perform this operation
by the instrument panel warning light
fig. 147 flashing and, where provided,
the message in the display.
Note: In cases of undesired engine
stops, due for example to the clutch
pedal being released abruptly with
a gear engaged, if the Start&Stop
system is activated, the engine can be
restarted by fully depressing the clutch
pedal or by placing the gear lever in
neutral.
Note: If the clutch is not pressed, when
three minutes have elapsed since the
engine was stopped, the engine can
only be restarted using the key.
SAFETY FUNCTIONS

the Start&Stop system, if the driver
unfastens his/her seat belt and opens
the driver's door or the passenger door,
the engine can be restarted only by
using the key.The driver is notified of this condition by
a buzzer, through the instrument panel
warning light fig. 147 flashing and,
where provided, by a message in the
display.
"ENERGY SAVING"
FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If, after the engine has been
automatically restarted, the driver does
not take any action for a period of
about 3 minutes, the Start&Stop
system will definitively stop the engine
to avoid fuel consumption.
The engine can only be started using
the key in such cases. Note: In any
case, it is possible to keep the engine
running by deactivating the Start&Stop
system.
IRREGULAR OPERATION
In the case of malfunctions the
Start&Stop system is disabled.
The driver is informed of the problem by
the general failure warning light A fig.
149, where provided, coming on with
an information message and the
system failure symbol B fig. 149 in the
control panel. In this case, contact a
Fiat Dealership.

STARTING AND DRIVING

VEHICLE INACTIVITY
Versions with dummy pole fig. 150
If the vehicle is inactive, special care
must be taken to disconnect the
battery electrical power supply. This
procedure is carried out by
disconnecting the rapid release
negative terminal A from the negative
false pole B because there is a battery
status monitoring sensor D at the
negative battery pole C which should
never be disconnected except when
the actual battery is replaced.
Versions without
dummy pole fig. 151
In case of car inactivity, special
attention must be paid due to the
disconnection of the battery power
supply.Proceed as follows: detach the
connector A (by pressing button B)
from sensor C for monitoring the status
of the battery installed on the negative
battery pole D. This sensor should
never be disconnected from the pole
except if the battery is replaced.
98)
EMERGENCY STARTING
When jump starting, never connect the
negative lead (–) of the auxiliary battery
to the negative pole C of the vehicle
battery, but rather to either the false
pole B or to an engine/gearbox earth
point fig. 152.
99) 100) 101) 102)
WARNING
98)If the battery needs to be replaced,
always contact a Fiat Dealership. Replace
the battery with a new one of the same
type and specifications.
99)Before opening the bonnet, make sure
that the vehicle is switched off and the
key is in the OFF position. Please follow the
instructions on the decal near the front

IMPORTANT Do not directly connect
the negative terminals of the two
batteries: any sparks may ignite the
explosive gas which could come out of
the battery. If the auxiliary battery is
installed on another vehicle, avoid any
metal parts on the latter and the vehicle
with the flat battery from accidentally
coming into contact.
29)
131)
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by
pushing, towing or coasting downhill.
This could cause fuel to flow into the
catalytic converter and damage it
beyond repair.IMPORTANT Remember that the brake
booster and the electric power steering
system are not active until the engine
is started, so you will need to apply
much more force to the brake pedal or
steering wheel.
WARNING
29)Never use a fast battery-charger for
emergency starting of the engine as this
could damage the electronic systems
of your vehicle, particularly the ignition and
fuel supply control units.
WARNING
131)This procedure must be performed by
qualified personnel as incorrect actions
may cause high-intensity electrical
discharge. Furthermore, battery fluid is
poisonous and corrosive: avoid contact
with skin and eyes. Keep naked flames
away from the battery. No smoking. Do not
cause sparks.
FUEL CUT-OFF
SYSTEM
This intervenes in the case of an impact
causing:
the fuel supply cut-off with the
engine consequently switching off;
the automatic unlocking of the
doors;
the switching on of the interior lights;
switching on of the hazard warning
lights (to deactivate the lights press
the dedicated button on the
dashboard).
132)When the system has been triggered,
the message “Fuel cut off, see
handbook” is displayed on some
versions.
Check carefully for fuel leaks, for
instance in the engine compartment,
under the vehicle or near the tank area.
After a collision, turn the ignition key
to STOP to prevent the battery from
running down.
The following procedure should be
carried out to restore the correct
operation of the vehicle:
turn the ignition key to the MAR
position;
activate the right direction indicator;
deactivate the right direction
indicator;
