IMPORTANT With the central locking engaged, pulling
the opening lever for one of the front doors switches
off the central locking function. Individual doors can be
unlocked by pulling the opening handle of one of the
rear doors.
If a power supply is not present (blown fuse, battery
disconnected, etc.) it is, however, possible to lock the
doors manually.
After exceeding 20 km/h, all the doors will be locked
automatically if the setup menu function has been
selected (see “Multifunction display” paragraph in this
section).

The LED comes on in the following cases:
❒after each door lock command generated by the
button D or by button
Áin the dashboard;
❒when the instrument panel is activated;
❒upon opening of one of the front doors;
❒when the door is locked at 20 km/h (if activated
from the menu).
The lock is turned off when one of the load
compartment doors is opened or on a door release
request (load compartment or centralised) or an
unlocking request from the remote control/door catch.
DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets where provided)
This safety device inhibits the operation of:
❒interior handles;
❒locking/unlocking buttons A-B fig. 118;
thereby preventing the opening of the doors from inside
the passenger compartment if there has been a break-in
attempt (e.g. a window has been broken).
The dead lock device therefore offers the best possible
protection against break in attempts. We recommend
engaging it whenever the vehicle is parked and left
unattended.
Once the dead lock system is engaged it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the vehicle. Therefore, before engaging
the system check that there is no one left inside.
If the remote control battery is flat, the system
can only be disengaged by using the metal insert
in either of the door locks as described
previously: in this case the device only remains
on for the rear doors.
WARNING
Device activation
The dead lock device is automatically activated on every
door when pressing the remote control button
Ábriefly
twice, fig. 115.
Device activation is indicated by 3 flashes of the
direction indicators and the flashing of the LED on
button A-fig. 118 on the dashboard.
If one of the doors is not perfectly shut, the dead lock
device will not be activated, thus preventing a person
getting into the car through the open door and, on
shutting it, remaining stuck inside the passenger
compartment.

MOVING FOOTBOARD fig. 122
(for versions/markets where provided)
When the side door of the passenger compartment or
luggage compartment is opened, a footboard emerges
from the lower part of the floorpan to make it easier to
board the vehicle.
Before setting off after parking or before
moving the vehicle in any way, ensure
that the footboard is fully stowed away.
Because the movement of the footboard is
controlled by that of the sliding side door,
incomplete stowing of the footboard or non-
closure of the rear doors is indicated by
a warning light
´in the instrument panel.

ABS SYSTEM
If you have never driven a vehicle with ABS before, it is
advisable to perform a few tests on slippery ground,
always in safe conditions and respecting the highway
code of the country where you are driving. Read the
following information carefully.
This is an integral part of the braking system, which
prevents one or more wheels from locking or slipping
regardless of the road surface conditions and braking
intensity, ensuring control of the vehicle even during
emergency braking.
The system is completed by EBD (Electronic Braking
Force Distribution), which distributes the braking action
between the front and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT For the maximum efficiency of the
braking system, a bedding in period of about 500 km is
needed (with the vehicle new or after having replaced
the brake pads/discs): during this period it is better to
avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged braking. Headlight alignment adjustment fig. 134
Press buttons Òand in the control panel to adjust.
The display located on the instrument panel provides
a visual indication of the adjusted position.
IMPORTANT Check the beam alignment every time the
weight of the load transported changes.
FRONT FOG LIGHTS ALIGNMENT
(for versions/markets where provided)
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the headlights
properly adjusted.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
The dipped headlights are adjusted to work in the
country where the vehicle was originally purchased.
In countries where vehicles are driven on the other side
of the road, the beams are aligned by applying a specially
designed adhesive film in order not to dazzle the
vehicles travelling in the opposite direction.
The ABS system gets the most out of the
available grip but it cannot improve it.
Therefore, you should take great care when
driving on slippery surfaces: don’t take
unnecessary risks.

FAILURE WARNING
ABS failure
ABS Failure is indicated by the
>warning light in the
instrument panel together with the dedicated message
in the multifunction display (for versions/markets where
provided) coming on (see “Warning lights and
messages” section).
In this case, the braking system will still be effective,
although without the extra capacity offered by the ABS
system. Drive carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to
have the system checked. SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can tell the ABS system has come into action
because the brake pedal pulsates slightly and the system
gets noisier: it means that the vehicle speed should be
altered to suit the type of road surface.
If the ABS cuts in, it is a sign that the
grip between tyre and the road surface
has reached the limit: you must slow down to
match the speed to the road grip available.
WARNING
EBD failure
ABS Failure is indicated by the
>and xwarning lights
in the instrument panel together with the dedicated
message in the multifunction display (for versions/
markets where provided) 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.
If only the xwarning light in the
instrument panel lights up (together with
a message in the multifunction display, for
versions/markets where provided) stop the
vehicle 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.

Detection distances
Central action range: 140 cm ±10 cm
Side action range: 60 cm ±20 cm
If several obstacles are detected by the sensors, only the
nearest one is considered.
FAILURE WARNING
Any parking sensor failures will be indicated when
engaging reverse by the
twarning light in the instrument
panel together with the message in the multifunction
display coming on for versions/markets where provided
(see “Warning lights and messages” section).
PARKING SENSORS
(for versions/markets where provided)
The parking sensors are located in the rear bumper,
fig. 136 and their function is to inform the driver,
through an intermittent buzzer, about the presence of
obstacles behind the vehicle.
ACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically activated when the
reverse gear is engaged.
As the obstacle behind the vehicle gets closer to the
bumper, the beeping becomes more frequent.
WARNING BUZZER
When reverse gear is engaged an intermittent beeping is
automatically activated.
The acoustic signal:
❒increases as the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle decreases;
❒becomes continuous when the distance between the
vehicle and the obstacle is less than 30 cm and stops
immediately if the distance increases;
❒remains constant if the distance remains unchanged;
if this situation concerns the side sensors, the
buzzer will stop after about 3 seconds to avoid,
for example, warning indications in the event of
manoeuvres along walls.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
THE SEAT BELTS
The driver is responsible for respecting (and ensuring
that all the other passengers also respect) the local laws
in force regarding the use of seat belts. Always fasten
the seat belts before starting.
Seat belts are also to be worn by expectant mothers:
the risk of injury in the case of accident is greatly
reduced for them and the unborn child if they are
wearing a seat belt.
Of course they must position the lower part of the belt
very low down so that it passes over the pelvis and
under the abdomen, see fig. 145.
The belt must not be twisted. The upper
part must pass over the shoulder and
cross the chest diagonally. The lower part must
adhere to the pelvis fig. 146, not to the
abdomen. Do not use devices (clips, clamps,
etc.) that prevent the belts from being snug to
the passengers’ body.
WARNING
Maximum protection is obtained if the
backrest is kept straight: the passenger’s
back must lean against the backrest and the
seat belt must be adhere firmly to the torso and
pelvis. Always fasten the seat belts on both the
front and the rear seats. Travelling without seat
belts fastened increases the risk of serious
injuries or even death in the event of a crash.
