WARNING
124)If the camera loses its position due to
a load variation, the system may not work
temporarily to allow the camera to perform
an auto-calibration.
125)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.
126)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.
127)When the system is active, the driver
is responsible for controlling the vehicle
and monitoring the system, and must
intervene as appropriate if necessary.

REPLACING A BULB
GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS
139) 140)
46)
When a light is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is intact
before changing a bulb. For the location
of fuses, refer to the paragraph
"Replacing fuses" in this chapter.
before changing a bulb check the
contacts for oxidation;
burnt bulbs must be replaced by
others of the same type and power;
always check the headlight beam
direction after changing a bulb;
IMPORTANT A slight misting may
appear on the internal surface of the
headlight: this does not indicate a fault
and is caused by low temperature
and the degree of humidity in the air.
Misting will rapidly disappear when the
headlights are switched on. The
presence of drops inside the headlights
indicates infiltration of water. Contact
a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
139)Modifications or repairs to the
electric system that are not carried out
properly or do not take the system
technical specifications into account can
cause malfunctions leading to the risk
of fire.
140)Halogen bulbs contain pressurised
gas, in the case of breakage they may
burst causing glass fragments to be
projected outwards.
WARNING
46)Halogen bulbs must be handled
holding the metallic part only. Touching the
transparent part of the bulb with your
fingers may reduce the intensity of the
emitted light and even reduce the lifespan
of the bulb. In the event of accidental
contact, wipe the bulb with a cloth
moistened with alcohol and let the bulb
dry.

VERSIONS WITH
START&STOP SYSTEM
To recharge, proceed as follows:
disconnect the connector A
(pressing the button B) from the sensor
C monitoring the battery conditions,
on the negative pole D of the battery;
connect the positive battery charger
lead to the positive battery terminal E
and the negative lead to the sensor
terminal F as in fig. 178;
turn on the charger;
at the end of the charging process,
switch the battery charger off;
after disconnecting the charger,
reconnect the connector A to the
sensor C as in fig. 178.
WARNING
168)Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive: avoid contact with your skin and
eyes. The battery should be charged in a
well ventilated place, away from naked
flames or possible sources of sparks:
danger of explosion and fire.
169)Do not attempt to charge a frozen
battery: it must be thawed first, otherwise it
may explode. If freezing has occurred, the
battery should be checked by skilled
personnel to make sure that the internal
elements are not damaged and that the
body is not cracked, with the risk of leaking
poisonous and corrosive acid.
FUEL CUT-OFF
SWITCH
The vehicle is fitted with a safety switch
that, in the event of a crash, comes
into operation by cutting off the fuel
supply and turning off the engine as a
consequence.
When the inertia switch cuts in, it cuts
off the fuel supply and also activates
the hazard warning lights, side lights
and courtesy lights while releasing
all the doors and displaying the relevant
message; they are deactivated by
pressing button A. On some versions,
there is also a safety relay that activates
in the event of impact to cut off the
electrical supply. In this way, fuel is
prevented from escaping if the pipes
are broken and the formation of sparks
or electrical discharges following
damage to the vehicle electrical
components is avoided.
170) 171)
IMPORTANT After an accident,
remember to remove the key from the
ignition device to prevent the battery
from running down. If no fuel leaks
or damage to vehicle's electrical
devices (e.g. headlights) are detected
after the impact and the vehicle is
able to set off again, reactivate the
automatic fuel cut-off switch.

Restoring the fuel cut-off switch
Press button A fig. 179 to reactivate the
fuel cut off switch.
WARNING
170)If, after an impact, you smell fuel or
notice leaks from the fuel system, do
not reactivate the switch to avoid the risk
of fire.
171)Before reactivating the fuel cut-off
switch, carefully check for fuel leaks or
damage to the vehicle's electrical devices
(e.g. headlights).
