ucts or mixtures may damage the engine beyond repair and consequently cause lapse of warranty in relation to the
damage caused.
ENGINE STARTING
Petrol engines: make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch
without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.
Diesel engines: turn the ignition key to MAR and wait until the warning lights
Y(or symbol on the display) go
off.mThen, turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high temperature during operation. Do not park on grass, dry leaves, pine needles
or other flammable material: fire risk.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

ensure better respect for the environment.

OPERATION
WITH TRAILER
Parking sensor operation is automatically
disabled when the electric cable plug of the
trailer is fitted into the vehicle tow hook
socket.
Sensors are automatically enabled again
when removing the trailer cable plug.GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, take the utmost care to
obstacles that may be set above or un-
der the sensors.
❒Objects located near the vehicle back,
under certain circumstances, are not
detected and could therefore cause
damage to the vehicle or become dam-
aged.
❒Indications sent by the sensors can be
altered by dirt, snow or ice deposited
on the sensors or by ultrasound sys-
tems (e.g. truck pneumatic brakes or
pneumatic hammers) near the vehicle.
❒For correct parking sensor operation
the swing-doors must be closed. Open
swing-doors may produce incorrect in-
dications by the system. The rear doors
must always be closed. The sensors must be clean
from mud, dirt, snow or ice in
order to work correctly. Be
careful not to scratch or dam-
age the sensors while cleaning them.
Avoid using dry, rough or hard cloths.
Wash the sensors with clean water with
the addition of car shampoo, if neces-
sary. In washing stations, clean sensors
quickly keeping the vapour jet/high
pressure washing nozzles at 10 cm at
least from the sensors.
The driver is fully responsible
for parking operations and
other dangerous manoeuvres. Make
sure that no-one is standing in the
area, especially children or animals.
Parking sensors are designed to assist
drivers, who must always pay the ut-
most attention during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres even if they
are performed at low speed.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
FOR USING THE SEAT BELTS
The driver is responsible for respecting
(and ensuring that all the other vehicle
passengers also respect) the local laws in
force regarding the use of seat belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before star-
ting off.
Seat belts must also be worn by pregnant
women: wearing the seat belt significan-
tly reduces the risk for both the expectant
mother and the baby in the event of an ac-
cident. Pregnant women must position the
lower part of the belt very low down so
that it passes under the abdomen (see fig.
4).IMPORTANT The belt must not be twi-
sted. The upper part must cross the shoul-
der and the chest diagonally. The lower
part must fit the hips (as shown in fig. 5)
rather than the abdomen of the passen-
ger. Do not use devices (clips, etc.) to hold
the seat belt away from your body.
For maximum safety, keep
the back of your seat upri-
ght, lean back into it and make sure
the seat belt fits closely across your
chest and hips. Always fasten the seat
belts on both the front and the rear
seats. Travelling without seat belts fa-
stened increases the risk of serious
injuries or even death in the event of
a crash.
Under no circumstances should the
seat belt and pretensioner compo-
nents be removed or tampered with.
All interventions must be performed
by qualified and authorised person-
nel only. Always go to a Fiat Dealer-
ship.
