ABS
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 intervenes when braking
and the wheels are about to lock,
typically in emergency braking or
low-grip conditions, when locking may
be more frequent.
The ABS ensures the direction of the
vehicle while braking and optimises the
braking distances at the same time.
The system also improves control and
stability of the car when braking on a
surface where the grip of the left and
right wheels varies, or when braking on
corners.
The system is completed by EBD
(Electronic Braking Force Distribution),
which distributes the braking action
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.
50)
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can feel that the ABS 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.
51) 52) 52) 53) 54) 55) 56) 57)
MSR SYSTEM
(Motor Schleppmoment Regelung)
This system is an integral part of the
ABS and intervenes, if there is sudden
downshifting, restoring torque to the
engine, thereby preventing excessive
drive at the drive wheels which,
especially in poor grip conditions, could
lead to a loss in stability of the vehicle.
WARNING
50) The ABS exploits the grip
available to the full, but it cannot
improve it. Therefore, you should
take great care when driving on
slippery surfaces, without taking
unnecessary risks.51) When the ABS intervenes and
you notice the brake pedal
pulsating, keep the pedal pushed
down and don’t be alarmed. This
will help you to stop in the
shortest distance possible,
depending on the road conditions.
52) If the ABS intervenes, it means
you have almost reached the grip
limit between the tyres and the
road surface: slow down to make
sure that you drive in accordance
with the available grip
53) The ABS can’t overrule the
natural laws of physics, and can’t
increase the grip available
according to the condition of the
road.
54) The ABS cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to
excessive speed on corners,
driving on low-grip surfaces or
aquaplaning.
55) The capability of the ABS must
never be tested irresponsibly and
dangerously, in such a way as
to compromise personal safety
and the safety of others.
56) For the correct operation of the
ABS, it is essential that the tyres
are of the same make and type on
all wheels, in perfect condition
and, above all, of the specified
type and dimensions.

Traction Plus operation
The system is deactivated when
starting. To activate the Traction Plus
system, press button A fig. 127: the
LED on the button switches on.
The activation of the Traction Plus
system involves the following functions
being switched on:
❒inhibition of the ASR function, in
order to fully exploit the engine
torque;
❒the differential locking effect on the
front axle, through the braking
system, to improve traction
on irregular grounds.
If the Traction Plus system is faulty, the
warning light on the instrument
panel switches on constantly.When travelling on snowy roads with
snow chains, it may be helpful to turn
the Traction Plus on and thus inhibiting
the ASR function: in fact, in these
conditions, slipping of the drive wheels
when moving off makes it possible to
obtain better traction.
WARNING
67) The Traction Plus system acts
effectively only on road surfaces
that are not homogeneous and/or
differentiated between the two
drive wheels.
68) Until the setting off manoeuvre is
terminated, fully depress the
accelerator pedal in order to
transfer all the drive torque to the
wheel with the best grip.
TPMS (Tyre
Pressure
Monitoring System)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
69) 70) 71) 72) 73) 74) 75) 76) 77)
DESCRIPTION
The tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) warns the driver of low tyre
pressure on the basis of the cold
inflation pressure prescribed for the
vehicle.
Changes in outside temperature may
cause tyre pressure to vary. This means
that a decrease in the outside
temperature corresponds to a decrease
in the tyre pressure.
Tyre pressure must always be adjusted
according to the cold inflation pressure.
Cold tyre inflation pressure is the tyre
pressure after letting the vehicle stand
for at least three hours or a travel
shorter than 1.6 km after an interval of
three hours.
The cold tyre inflation pressure must
not exceed the maximum inflation
pressure value printed on the side of
the tyre.

83) The system only detects the
preset traffic signs. If the
minimum visibility conditions and
distance from the sign are met
it can detect all traffic signs.
84) The system is a driving
assistance system but it does not
relieve the driver of the
responsibility of driving with due
attention and diligence in
compliance with the laws in force.
85) When the system is active, the
driver is responsible for
controlling the vehicle and
monitoring the system, and must
intervene as appropriate if
necessary.
IMPORTANT
10) If the sensor is blocked, the
system may not work.
11) In the case of low temperatures
or harsh weather conditions, the
system may not work.
12) Rain, snow, splashes and strong
light contrast may influence the
sensor.13) Do not repair the area of the
windscreen directly surrounding
the sensor.
14) If the vehicle is equipped with a
non-genuine suspension kit, the
system may not work correctly.
15) Always use genuine spare parts
when replacing the bulbs of the
headlights. Other bulbs may
reduce the system performance.
16) Clean the windscreen from
foreign matters such as bird
droppings, insects, snow or ice.
EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD system (European On Board
Diagnosis) allows continuous diagnosis
of emission-related components on
the vehicle to be made.
It also alerts the driver, by turning on
the
warning light in the instrument
panel (together with relevant message
in the multifunction display, for
versions/markets where provided) when
these components are no longer in
peak condition (see “Warning lights and
messages” paragraph).
The aim of the system is to:
❒monitor system efficiency;
❒indicate an increase in emissions due
to vehicle malfunction;
❒indicate the need to replace
components which have
deteriorated.
The system also has a connector that
can be interfaced with appropriate
equipment, which makes it possible to
read the error codes stored in the
control unit together with a series of
specific parameters for engine
operation and diagnosis. This check
can also be carried out by traffic control
authorities.

REFUELLING THE
VEHICLE
IN BRIEF
Refuel the vehicle exclusively with
dieselfor motor vehicles in
compliance with European
specification EN590.
Stop the engine before refuelling.
OPERATION AT LOW
TEMPERATURES
If the outside temperature is very low,
diesel thickens due to the formation
of paraffin clots with consequent
defective operation of the fuel supply
system.
In order to avoid these problems,
different types of diesel are distributed
according to the season: summer type,
winter type and arctic type (cold/
mountain areas). If refuelling with diesel
fuel whose specifications are not
suitable for the current temperature, it is
advisable to mix TUTELA DIESEL ART
additive in the proportions shown on
the container. Pour the additive into the
tank before the diesel fuel.When using or parking the vehicle for a
long time in the mountains or cold
areas, it is advisable to refuel using
locally available diesel fuel.
In this case, it is also advisable to keep
the tank over 50% full.
19)
FILLING THE TANK
To fill the tank completely, top-up twice
after the first click of the fuel supply
gun. Further top-ups could cause faults
in the fuel supply system.
FUEL TANK CAP
When refuelling, open Door A fig. 141
located on the left side of the vehicle
therefore unscrew the plug B fig. 141
turning it counter-clockwise.
For versions / markets where provided,
insert the ignition key in the lock of
the cap. Turn the key counter-clockwise
and remove the cap by gripping the
key. Do not remove the key from the
cap during refuelling. During the
operation of refuelling, the cap can be
hung to its appropriate place located on
the door A (fig. 141).
The sealing may cause a slight pressure
increase in the tank. A little breathing
off, while slackening the cap is
absolutely normal.In case of loss or damage to the fuel
tank cap, make sure that the
replacement cap is for the appropriate
vehicle.
Tighten the cap of the fuel tank filler
until you hear a "click". This sound
shows that the cap of the fuel tank filler
is properly tightened.
For versions / markets where provided,
turn the key clockwise until it stops. It
is not necessary to apply an additional
load on the key to complete the
tightening of the cap. Only in the case
where the cap has been tightened
properly, it will be possible to remove
the ignition key from the cap.
After each refuelling, make sure the fuel
filler cap is securely tightened.141F1A5004
109

IMPORTANT
❒When the gun distributor fuel "snaps"
or interrupts the supply, the tank is
nearly full and you can run two
additional top-ups after shooting
automatic.

❒insert the dispensing gun for topping
up UREA in the filler neck;
❒immediately stop filling the tank
UREA if it shows one of the cases
listed below:
- If AdBlue is spilled out of the filler
neck, clean up well the area and
proceed to filling up again;- If during filling the dispensing gun
clicks, it indicates that the UREA tank is
full. Do not proceed with the
replacement, to prevent spillage of
AdBlue (UREA).
❒When you finished topping, remount
cap C fig. 141 on the filler neck
UREA, turning it clockwise until it
stops;
❒turn the key in the pawl starter in the
ON position (no need to start the
engine);
❒wait for the signal on the instrument
panel to power off before moving the
vehicle, the warning light may stay
on for a few seconds to half a
minute. In case of motor start-up and
movement of the vehicle, the
warning sign will remain on for a
longer period of time, but there are
no problems on the engine
functionality. If topping up is done
with the UREA tank empty, you have
to wait two minutes before starting
the vehicle.
When refuelling the additive for Diesel
Emissions AdBlue (UREA) with bottle:
❒park the vehicle on ground level;
❒turn off the engine by turning the key
in the OFF position;❒open the door to fuel A fig. 141 and
then unscrew and remove the cap C

❒if during the topping up, the level of
AdBlue in the bottle does not drop,
it means that you have reached
the full tank, therefore proceed pulling
the bottle towards you in order to
re-lock the safety valve of the bottle
and unscrew the bottle from the
filler (fig. 142, ref. 3);
❒after removing the bottle remount
cap C fig. 141 on the filler neck
UREA, turning it clockwise until it
stops;
❒turn the key in the pawl starter in the
ON position (no need to start the
engine);
❒wait for the signal on the instrument
panel to power off before moving the

on for a few seconds to half a
minute. In case of motor start-up and
movement of the vehicle, the
warning sign will remain on for a
longer period of time, but there are
no problems on the engine
functionality;
❒If topping up is done with the UREA
tank empty, you have to wait two
minutes before starting the vehicle;NoteThe driving conditions (altitude,
vehicle speed, load, etc.) determine the
quantity of UREA used by the vehicle.
In order to use the additive for Diesel
Emissions (UREA) correctly, see "Fluids
and lubricants" in the "Technical data".
IMPORTANT
❒Exceeding the maximum filling
level of the tank UREA, it can
cause damage to the tank and
spilling UREA. Please avoid
topping up after filling the tank.
❒DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM
LEVEL. The UREA freezes at
under -11 ° C. Although the
system is designed to operate
below the freezing point of the
UREA, it is advisable not to fill the
tank beyond the maximum level
because if the UREA freezes
the system can be damaged.
❒If the UREA is spilled on painted
surfaces or aluminium,
immediately clean the area with
water and use absorbent material
to collect the fluid that has been
spilled on the ground.
❒Do not try to start the engine if
UREA was accidentally added
to the diesel fuel tank, this can
result in serious engine damage,
contact Dealership.❒Use AdBlue only according to DIN
70 070 and ISO 22241-1. Other
fluids may cause damage to the
system: also exhaust emissions
would no longer comply with
the law. The distribution
companies are responsible for
the compliance of their product.
Observe the precautions of
storage and maintenance, in
order to preserve the initial
qualities. The manufacturer of the
vehicle does not recognize any
guarantee in case of
malfunctions and damage caused
to the vehicle due to the use of
urea (AdBlue) not in accordance
with regulations.
❒Any introduction of diesel fuel
inside the tank AdBlue, causes
irreversible damage to the
pumping unit circuit AdBlue.
❒Do not add additives to AdBlue.
Do not dilute AdBlue with tap
water as this may damage the
system of purification of exhaust
gases.
