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.

WARNING
58) The ESC system can’t overrule
the natural laws of physics, and
can’t increase the grip available
according to the condition of
the road.
59) The ESC system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to
excessive speed on corners,
driving on low-grip surfaces or
aquaplaning.60) The capability of the ESC system
must never be tested irresponsibly
and dangerously, in such a way
as to compromise personal safety
and the safety of others.
61) The performance of the ESC and
ASR systems must not encourage
the driver to take unnecessary
risks. Driving style must always be
adapted to road conditions,
visibility and traffic. The driver is,
in any case, responsible for safe
driving.
62) For the ESC and ASR systems to
function correctly, all four tyres
must be the same brand and type,
must be in excellent condition
and, above all, must be of the
prescribed type and size.
63) The HBA system cannot increase
tyre grip on the road over the
limits imposed by laws of physics:
always drive carefully according
to the conditions of the road
surface.
64) The HBA system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to
excessive speed on bends,
travelling on low-grip surfaces or
aquaplaning.
85

OPERATION
The system is always active when the
vehicle is started. It can be deactivated
or re-activated by pressing button A
fig. 128 on the dashboard (see
following description).
The LED on the button switches on to
confirm that the system has been
activated and a dedicated message
appears on the display.
When the system is activated, the LED
on the dedicated button is off. If the
user deactivates the system, the LED
on the button switches on constantly
and a dedicated message appears
on the display to confirm that the
system has been switched off.The system is enabled at every key
cycle of the vehicle and starts
recognition of the operating conditions
(condition signalled to the driver when
the 2 direction warning lights
and
on the instrument panel light up).
When the system recognises the
operating conditions, it becomes active,
i.e. it can assist the driver with visual
and acoustic warnings. Therefore
the two direction warning lights
and
on the instrument panel switch off
to prevent excessively frequent
warnings while driving in towns or on
winding roads at low speeds.
IMPORTANT If the operating conditions
are no longer present, the system
remains activated but inactive.
Therefore the driver is warned by the 2
direction warning lights
andon
the instrument panel switching on
constantly.OPERATING CONDITIONS
FOR ACTIVATION
Once switched on, the system
becomes active only if the following
conditions are met:
❒front driving direction (reverse not
engaged);
❒the system does not detect any error;
❒calibration in progress;
❒vehicle speed between 60 km/h and
max. vehicle speed;
❒presence of lane demarcation lines
not deteriorated and visible on both
sides;
❒suitable visibility conditions;
❒straight line or wide radius bends;
❒sufficient field of vision condition
(safety distance from vehicle in front);
❒direction indicators not activated
in the lane exiting direction (e.g. right
lane exiting direction, right direction
indicator activated);
❒vehicle direction getting constantly
closer to the lane demarcation lines
(the vehicle trajectory is within the
lane demarcation lines);
❒vehicle not constantly next to the lane
demarcation line.

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.

hear a distinct click coming from
under the vehicle due to the UREA
injection system, this is normal.
❒The UREA injection system pump
continues to operate for a short
period of time after the engine is
switched off, to purge the circuit. This
is normal, and you can still hear its
noise from under the vehicle.RADIO

KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

Since this filter physically traps
particulate, it should be regenerated
(cleaned) at regular intervals by burning
carbon particles.
The regeneration procedure is
controlled automatically by the
Powertrain Control Module according
to the filter conditions and vehicle
usage conditions.
During regeneration, the following may
occur: a limited increase in the engine
speed, activation of the fan, a limited
increase in fumes and high
temperatures at the exhaust.These are not faults; they do not impair
vehicle performance or damage the
environment. If the dedicated message
is displayed, refer to paragraph
"Warning lights and messages".
WARNING
97) The diesel particulate filter (DPF)
reaches high temperatures during
normal operation. Do not park
the vehicle on flammable material
(grass, dry leaves, pine needles
etc.): fire hazard.
