Never extract the key while
the vehicle is moving. The
steering wheel would be locked as
soon as the steering wheel is turned.
This also applies to cases in which the
vehicle is towed. Under no circum-
stances should after-market opera-
tions be carried out involving steering
system or steering column modifica-
tions (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could negatively affect
performance and safety, cause the
lapse of the warranty and also result
in vehicle non-compliance with type-
approval requirements.
WARNINGIGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 3 different po-
sitions fig. 10:
❒STOP: the engine is off, the key can be
extracted, the steering is locked. Some
electrical devices (e.g. car radio, central
door locking system, alarm, etc.) are en-
abled.
❒MAR: driving position. All electrical de-
vices work regularly.
❒AVV: engine start.
The ignition device is fitted with a safety
system that forces the driver to return the
ignition key to STOPbefore repeating the
starting operation, if the engine does not
start up.STEERING COLUMN LOCK
Engagement
When the key is at STOP, remove the key
and turn the steering wheel until it locks.
Disengagement
Rock the steering wheel slightly as you
turn the ignition key to MAR.

WASHER (where provided)
The device can work only when the igni-
tion key is on MAR.
Activation
Turn the knurled ring to
'to operate the
rear window wiper as follows:
❒intermittent operation if the wind-
screen wiper is off;
❒synchronised with the windscreen
wiper (but with half stroke frequency);
❒continuous operation with reverse gear
engaged and windscreen wiper on.
With windscreen wiper on and reverse
gear engaged, rear window wiping will be
continuous.
Pushing the stalk towards the dashboard
(unstable position) will activate the rear
window washer. Keeping the stalk pushed
for over half a second will also activate the
rear window wiper. Releasing the stalk will
activate the smart washing function as de-
scribed for the windscreen wiper.Deactivation
Operation will stop when releasing the
stalk.
Do not use the rear window
wiper to remove layers of
snow or ice from the rear win-
dow. In such conditions, the
windscreen wiper may be subjected to
excessive stress and the motor protec-
tion which prevents operation for a few
seconds may trip. If rear window wiper
operation is not reset, contact the
Fiat Dealership.
“Smart washing” function
Pull the stalk towards the steering wheel
(unstable position) to operate the wind-
screen washer jet.
Keeping the stalk pulled for more than half
a second, with just one movement it is
possible to operate the washer jet and the

FRONT AIRBAGS
The vehicle is provided with front airbags
for the driver and the passenger.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front airbags on both the driver’s and
passenger’s side (where provided) have
been designed to protect the occupants in
the event of head-on crashes of medium-
high severity, by placing the bag between
the occupant and the steering wheel or
dashboard.
Non-deployment of the airbags in other
types of collisions (side collisions, rear
shunts, roll-overs, etc.) does not necessa-
rily indicate a system malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the bag
to inflate in the event of a front crash.
The bag will inflate instantaneously placing
itself between the front occupant’s body
and the structures which could cause
injury. It will deflate immediately af-
terwards.
Driver and passenger front airbags (whe-
re provided) are not a replacement of, but
complementary to, the seat belts, which
you are recommended to always wear as
specified by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.In the event of a collision, a person not
wearing the seat belt may be thrown
forward and come into contact with the
bag before it has fully opened. The pro-
tection offered by the bag is reduced in su-
ch a case.
Front airbags may not be activated in the
following situations:
❒in front collisions against highly defor-
mable objects which do not affect the
front surface of the vehicle (e.g. bum-
per collision against guard rail, etc.);
❒vehicle penetration under other vehi-
cles or protective barriers (e.g. trucks
or guard rails);
they could not provide any additional pro-
tection compared with seat belts, so their
deployment would be improper. In these
cases non-deployment of the airbag does
not necessarily indicate a system malfunc-
tion.Do not apply stickers or
other objects on the steering
wheel, on the dashboard (in passen-
ger side airbag area) and on the seats.
Do not place objects (e.g. cell pho-
nes) on the passenger’s side dash-
board because these could interfere
with correct deployment of the pas-
senger’s airbag and cause severe
injury to vehicle occupants.
WARNING
The front airbags on the driver’s and pas-
senger’s sides are designed and calibrated
to protect the front seat passengers who
wear safety belts.
The volume of the front airbags at max.
inflation fills most of the space between
the steering wheel and the driver and
between the dashboard and the passen-
ger.
The airbags are not deployed in the event
of front collisions of low severity (for whi-
ch the withholding action of the seat belts
is sufficient). Safety belts must always be
worn. In the event of a front crash they
ensure the correct positioning of the oc-
cupant.

PASSENGER’S SIDE
(where provided) fig. 15
It consists of an instant-inflating bag con-

that of the driver.
Do not arrange child seats fa-
cing backwards if the passen-
ger’s front airbag is on. De-
ployment of the airbag in the
event of an accident could
cause fatal injuries to the baby. Always
deactivate the passenger’s airbag
when placing a child seat on the front
seat. Move the passenger’s seat as far
back as possible to avoid contact
between the child seat and the dash-
board. Although this is not mandatory
by law, the airbag should be imme-
diately reactivated when children are
no longer carried to ensure better pro-
tection to adults.

ENGINE STARTING
The vehicle is provided with an electron-
ic engine lock device: refer to “The Fiat
CODE system” paragraph in the section
“Dashboard and controls” if the engine
will not start.
The engine may be noisier during the first
seconds of operation, particularly after a
long period of inactivity. This does not im-
pair engine operation and reliability, and is
typical of hydraulic tappets: the distribu-
tion system for the petrol engine of your
vehicle has been selected to minimise
maintenance.ENGINE START-UP
PROCEDURE FOR
PETROL VERSIONS
Proceed as follows:
❒ensure that the handbrake is up;
❒put the gear lever into neutral;
❒press the clutch pedal all the way down
without touching the accelerator;
❒turn the ignition key to AVVand let it
go the moment the engine starts.
If the engine does not start at the first at-
tempt, return the ignition key to STOP
before repeating starting.
If with the ignition key on MARthe warn-
ing light Yremains lit together with
warning light
U, turn the key to STOP
and then back to MAR; if the warning light
remains on, try with the other keys pro-
vided with the vehicle.
If the engine still will not start, perform an
emergency start (see “Emergency start”
in section “In an emergency”) and then
contact a Fiat Dealership. It is advisable not to demand
maximum performance from
your vehicle (e.g. excessive
accelerations, long distances
at top rpm, excessive intense braking,
etc.) as soon as the engine is started.
When the engine is switched
off, never leave the ignition
key in the MAR position to
prevent pointless current ab-
sorption from draining the battery.
Remember that the servo-
brake and electric power
steering are not operational until the
engine is started. Therefore, more ef-
fort than usual is required on the
brake pedal and steering wheel.
WARNING
It is dangerous to have the
engine running indoors. The
engine depletes oxygen and dis-
charges carbon dioxide, carbon
monoxide and other toxic gases.
