stalk again to the main beam headlight
position deactivates the function.If the driving speed is below 15 km/h
and the function is activated, the
function switches the main beam
headlights off. Pulling the stalk again to
the main beam headlight position is
interpreted as a request for main beam
headlights constantly on, therefore
the blue warning light
on the panel
switches on and the main beam
headlights are constantly on until the

function is activated again automatically
when 40 km/h is exceeded
.
If the stalk is pulled again in this
condition, to request main beam
headlight deactivation, the function
remains off and the main beam
headlights switch off.

AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT
SENSOR (dusk sensor)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
It detects variations in brightness
outside the vehicle depending on the
light sensitivity setting: the greater
the sensitivity, the less outside light
needed to activate the exterior lights.
The sensitivity of the dusk sensor is
adjusted by means of the "Setup
menu" of the display.
Activation
Turn the ring nut to position
fig. 63:
this turns the side lights and the dipped
beam headlights on simultaneously
and automatically depending on the
exterior brightness conditions.Deactivation
On the sensor’s deactivation command,
the main beam headlights will switch
off, followed by the side lights after
approximately 10 seconds.
The sensor is not capable of detecting
the presence of fog. Therefore, in
these circumstances, the lights have to
be turned on manually.
WARNING
23) The daytime running lights are
an alternative to dipped beam
headlights for driving during the
daytime. They are compliant in
countries where is it obligatory to
have lights on during the day
and permitted in those where it is
not obligatory. Daytime running
lights cannot replace dipped
beam headlights when driving at
night or through tunnels. The
use of daytime running lights is
governed by the highway code of
the country in which you are
driving. Comply with legal
requirements.24) The system is based on
recognition via a camera.
Particular environmental
conditions may affect the correct
recognition of traffic conditions.
Therefore, the driver is always
responsible for the correct use of
the main beam headlights in
compliance with the laws in force.
Rotate the ring nut to the
fig.
58 position to deactivate the
automatic function.
25) Should the camera tilt too much
due to a load variation, the system
may not work temporarily to allow
the camera to perform an
autocalibration.

SPEED LIMITER
This device allows the speed of the car
to be limited to values which can be
set by the driver.
The maximum speed can be set both
with vehicle stationary and in motion.
The minimum speed that can be set is
30 km/h.
When the device is active, the car
speed depends on the pressure at the
accelerator pedal, until the
programmed speed limit is reached
(see "Speed limit programming"
paragraph).If necessary (in the event of overtaking
for example), the set speed limit can
be exceeded by fully depressing the
accelerator pedal.
By gradually reducing the pressure on
the accelerator pedal, the function
will be reactivated as soon as the car
speed drops below the set speed.
Switching the device on
To activate the device, turn ring nut A
fig. 68 to position
.
Activation of the device is indicated by
the
warning light on the instrument
panel switching on and, on some
versions, by a message on the display
plus last programmed speed value.Speed limit
programming
The speed limit can be programmed
without necessarily activating the
device.
To store a speed value higher than that
displayed, move stalk A upwards (+).
Each movement of the stalk
corresponds to an increase in speed of
about 1 km/h, while keeping the stalk
held upwards will increase the speed
with an increment of 5 km/h.
To store a value lower than that
displayed, move stalk A downwards (–).
Each movement of the stalk
corresponds to a decrease in speed of
about 1 km/h, while keeping the stalk
held downwards a decrease of 5 km/h
is obtained.
Activating/deactivating
the device
Press the CANC RES button to
activate/deactivate the device.
The activation of the device is indicated

Exceeding the
programmed speed
By fully depressing the accelerator
pedal, the programmed speed can be
exceeded even with the device active.
IMPORTANT A slight hardening of
the accelerator pedal is perceived when
the end of travel is reached. This is to
intentionally signal to the driver that the
speed control system is being
deactivated.
When the programmed speed limit is
reached by fully depressing the
accelerator pedal, it is normal to
perceive increased resistance on the
pedal itself.
In this case the device is deactivated
temporarily and the set speed flashes
on the display.
Reducing the speed below the
programmed value reactivates the
device automatically.
IMPORTANT With the device
deactivated, the car maximum speed is
reached before the end of travel with
the load hardening.Flashing of programmed
speed
The programmed speed flashes in the
following cases:
❒when the accelerator pedal has been
fully depressed and the car speed
has exceeded programmed speed;
❒when the device cannot reduce the
speed of the car due to the gradient
of the road;
❒in the event of sharp acceleration.
Deactivating the device
To deactivate the device, turn ring nut A
toO.
The deactivation of the device is
indicated by the
warning light
switching off on the instrument panel
and, on some versions, by a message
and

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.
29) 30)
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. 81 to reactivate the
