MOVING FOOTBOARD
(for versions/markets, where provided)
On opening the passenger
compartment side door or the luggage
compartment, a footboard fig. 16
comes out from under the chassis to
aid climbing on board the vehicle.

REAR FOOTBOARD
(for goods carrier van versions)
12) 13) 14) 15) 16)
2)
The vehicle can be equipped with a rear
retractable footboard A fig. 17, which
aids climbing into and out of the rear
load compartment.The footboard can slide under the
vehicle when not used so as not to
increase the vehicle external
dimensions.
The footboard slides manually both
when opening and closing.
WARNING
6)Once the dead lock device is engaged it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the vehicle. Before engaging the
system please therefore check that there is
no-one left on board. If the remote control
battery is flat, the system can be
disengaged only by inserting the key metal
insert in either of the door locks as
described previously: in this case the
device remains active only for the rear
doors.
7)Before leaving the vehicle parked with
sliding doors open, always check that
the latch is engaged.8)Always use this device when carrying
children.
9)Do not move the vehicle with side doors
open.
10)This spring loaded system has
activation forces that were designed for
optimum comfort. Accidental knocks or a
strong gust of wind may release the
springs and let the doors close
spontaneously.
11)With the doors opened to 180 degrees,
no locking system is effective. Do not use
this opening with the vehicle parked on
a gradient or when it is windy.
12)It is forbidden to drive the vehicle with
the footboard open.
13)Do not use the retracted footboard for
getting up or down the load compartment.
14)Make sure that the footboard is suitably
locked by the provided retaining systems
before, after and during its use. An
incomplete opening or closing might cause
an improper movement of the footboard
with risks arising for the operator and
external users.
15)Before setting off after parking or
before moving the vehicle in any way,
ensure the footboard is fully stowed away.
Because the movement of the footboard
is controlled by that of the sliding side door,
incomplete stowing of the footboard or
non-closure of the rear doors is indicated
by the lighting of a warning light
on
the instrument panel.
16)The footboard lightly projects from the
vehicle even if retracted; therefore, when
rear parking sensors are provided, their
operating range is lightly reduced.

direction indicator.
The
orwarning light will blink on
the instrument panel.
When the daytime running lights are on
(in the versions without LEDs and for
versions/markets, where provided),
activating the direction indicators will
turn off the corresponding headlight’s
daytime running light (DRL).
Lane change function
If you wish to signal a lane change,
place the left stalk in the unstable
position for less than half a second. The
direction indicator on the side selected
will flash five times and then switch
off automatically.“FOLLOW ME HOME”
DEVICE
This device allows the illumination of the
space in front of the vehicle for a preset
time.
Activation
With ignition key in the OFF position or
removed, pull the stalk towards the
steering wheel fig. 55 and move it
within 2 minutes of stopping the engine.
Each time the stalk is moved, the
lights stay on for an extra 30 seconds
up to a maximum of 210 seconds; then
the lights are switched off automatically.
The
warning light on the
instrument panel will light up and the
corresponding message will appear in
the display (see “Warning lights and
messages” section) for as long as the
function is activated.The warning light comes on when the
stalk is operated and stays on until
the function is automatically
deactivated.
Each movement of the stalk only
increases the amount of time the lights
stay on.
Deactivation
Keep the stalk pulled towards the
steering wheel fig. 55 for more than 2
seconds.
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 to the
position fig. 56:
this turns the side lights and the dipped
beam headlights on simultaneously
and automatically depending on the
exterior brightness.
Deactivation
The main beam headlights will go out
followed by the side lights after
approximately 10 seconds, when the
sensor is deactivated.
The sensor is not capable of detecting
the presence of fog. Therefore, in
these circumstances, the lights have to
be turned on manually.WARNING
31)The daytime running lights are an
alternative to the dipped beam headlights
for driving during the daytime in countries
where it is compulsory to have lights on
during the day, and they are also permitted
in those countries where this 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.
32)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 to the
position fig. 51to
disable the automatic function.
33)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.
HEADLIGHTS
LIGHT BEAM ALIGNMENT
The correct alignment of the headlights
is essential for the comfort and safety
of the driver and other road users.
To ensure the best visibility when
travelling with the headlights on, the
headlight alignment must be correct.

IMPORTANT We recommend replacing
the blades once a year.“Smart washing” function
Pulling the stalk towards the steering
wheel (unstable position) operates
the windscreen washer fig. 70.
Keeping the stalk pulled for more than
half a second, with just one movement
it is possible to operate the washer
jet and the wiper at the same time.
The windscreen wiper stops working
three strokes after the stalk is released.
A further stroke after approx. 6 seconds
completes the wiping cycle.
RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the
driving mirror in contact with the
windscreen and has the purpose of
automatically adjust, during the
intermittent operation, the frequency of
the windscreen wiper strokes as to
the rain intensity.IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the
