The system is returned to manual mode
by returning the lever to A/Mposition.
With the vehicle at a standstill and the key
out, the lever may be moved with/without
the brake pedal pressed. The system does
not carry out any action after the lever has
been shifted and remains in the gear
stored before the key was removed.
IMPORTANT With the engine running, a
buzzer sounds to indicate errors between
the lever position and the gear effectively
engaged until the inconsistency is resolved.MANUAL OPERATION
(MANUAL)
In this operating mode, the driver is re-
sponsible for choosing the best gear ra-
tio to engage, depending on vehicle ser-
vice conditions.
Proceed as follows to shift gear:
❒shift the lever to (+) position fig. 1to
engage a higher gear;
or
❒shift the lever to (–) position fig. 1to
engage a lower gear.
The accelerator pedal need not be re-
leased during the gear change.
The system will not allow the gear change
if the gear shift request could impair cor-
rect operation of the engine and gearbox.
In this case, the system will notify the dri-
ver that it is not possible to change gear
by displaying a dedicated message on the
reconfigurable multifunction display (see
“Warning lights and messages” paragraph),
accompanied by a buzzer.
The system will shift down through the
gears automatically when the engine is
idling (e.g. during deceleration).Avoid keeping your hand on
the lever when you are not re-
questing a gear shift or an
Auto/Manual mode change.

When the UPfunction is activated the
(green) warning light
0in the instru-
ment panel comes on together with a con-
firmation message in the reconfigurable
multifunction display.
IMPORTANT If the display does not show
the gear engaged after 10 seconds with the
ignition key on MAR, turn the ignition to
STOP, wait for the display to turn off and
then repeat the manoeuvre. If the prob-
lem persists, contact the Fiat Dealer-
ship.ENGINE STARTING
The system permits engine start-up with
a gear engaged and also with the gearbox
in neutral (N); the brake pedal must al-
ways be pressed with the gear engaged.
It is advisable to place the gear lever in
neutral (N) before starting the engine.
After start-up:
❒the gearbox automatically engages neu-
tral (N)
❒the lever remains in the same position
as the last time the engine was turned
off
❒the reconfigurable multifunction display
shows the message (N) and an acoustic
signal indicates any inconsistency be-
tween lever position and the gear en-
gaged
❒the gears that may be engaged are 1st,
2ndor reverse (R), with the brake ped-
al pressed.IMPORTANT If start-up is requested with
the gearbox is a position other than Nand
without the brake pedal pressed, the re-
configurable multifunction display shows a
dedicated message see “Warning lights
and messages”). In this case, repeat the
start-up manoeuvre, pressing the brake
pedal.
IMPORTANT If start-up is requested with
the gearbox faulty, run the “Delayed start-
up” procedure (see also associated mes-
sages): hold the key on AVVposition for
at least 7 seconds with the brake depressed
and the engine will start. The system will
remain in recovery mode (maximum speed
permitted: 3
rd, Auto mode not available).
If the engine does not start, contact a Fiat
dealership.
IMPORTANT When the driver’s door is
opened, the system activates the auto-
matic part to prepare it for subsequent en-
gine start-up.
If the engine does not start
with the gear engaged, a po-
tentially hazardous situation
because the gearbox has au-
tomatically shifted to neutral is indi-
cated by a buzzer.
