68GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
IMPORTANTThe cruise control
can be engaged only with speeds high-
er than 40 km/h.
The device is automatically discon-
nected in one of the following cases:
– pressing the brake pedal;
– pressing the clutch pedal;
– inadvertently moving the automat-
ic gearbox selector to N. A special horn warns any people near
the vehicle that the driver is manoeu-
vring it.
Through four sensors located in the
bumper, the system detects the dis-
tance between the vehicle and possi-
ble obstacles; the driver is warned by
an intermittent acoustic signal with in-
creasing frequency, which is automat-
ically activated when the reverse gear
is engaged.CRUISE CONTROL
GENERAL FEATURES
The cruise control, with electronic
control, allows driving the vehicle at
a desired speed, without pressing the
accelerator pedal. This allows reduc-
ing the driving fatigue on motorways,
especially during long journeys, be-
cause the memorised speed is auto-
matically maintained.
Never set gear selector to
N (vehicles fitted with au-
tomatic gearbox) when the vehicle
is moving.
WARNING
The Cruise Control must be
activated only when the
traffic and the path allow keeping,
for a distance long enough, a con-
stant speed in complete safety.

123GETTING THE BEST OUT OF YOUR VEHICLE
– if you are forced to stop your ve-
hicle (breakdown, limited visibility,
etc.) try to stop off the road. Turn on
the hazard lights and, if possible, the
dipped beam headlights. Rhythmically
sound the horn if you release anoth-
er vehicle is coming.
DRIVING IN THE
MOUNTAINS
– Check fluid levels (oil, brake fluid,
coolant) and tyre wear before driving
in the mountains;
– when driving downhill use the en-
gine braking effect by engaging a low
gear so as not to overheat the brakes;
– under no circumstances should you
drive downhill with the engine off or
with the gear in neutral, let alone with
the ignition key out;
– drive at moderate speed and avoid
“cutting” corners;
– remember that overtaking while
going uphill is slower and therefore re-
quires more free road. If you are be-
ing overtaken while driving uphill,
make it easier for the other vehicle
to pass.DRIVING ON SNOW
AND ICE
Here are some tips for driving in
these conditions:
– keep your speed down;
– use chains if the roads are covered
with snow;
– do not park the vehicle with the
engine running for long periods of
time: snow could divert exhaust fumes
into the passenger compartment;
– mainly use the braking effect of the
engine and under all circumstances
avoid braking sharply;
– when braking a vehicle not fitted
with ABS, reduce the possibility of the
wheels locking by varying the pressure
you exert on the brake pedal;
– do not accelerate suddenly and
avoid swerving;– in the winter, even apparently dry
roads may have icy patches. Be care-
ful therefore when driving over
stretches that do not get much expo-
sure to the sun or are lined with trees
or rocks where ice might not have
melted;
– keep a good distance from the ve-
hicles in front.
DRIVING WITH ABS
– ABS is a braking system that es-
sentially offers two advantages:
1) It prevents wheel lock and con-
sequent skidding in emergency stops,
particularly when the road does not
offer much grip.
2) it makes it possible to brake and
steer at the same time and direct the
vehicle where you want while braking.
