AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
SPORT MODE 5A/T
(where provided)
During running-in period or immediately
after reconnection of the battery cable,
there may be a case where gear shifts
are not made smoothly. This does not
indicate a faulty transmission. Gear
shifts will become smooth after the
transmission has been shifted several
times by the electronic control system.
Selector lever operation
The transmission has 5 forward gears
and 1 reverse gear.
The individual gears are selected
automatically, depending on the speed
of the vehicle and the position of the
accelerator pedal.
The selector lever (A) has 2 gates; the
main gate (B) and the manual gate (C).
While depressing
the brake pedal,
move the selector
lever through the
gate.
Move the selector
lever through the
gate.
92)
To avoid erroneous operation, move the
selector lever firmly into each position
and briefly hold it there. Always check
the position shown by the selector lever
position display after moving the
selector lever.
If the brake pedal is not depressed and
held, the shift-lock device activates to
prevent the selector lever from being
moved from the “P” (PARK) position.
When the selector lever cannot be
shifted from the “P” (PARK)
position
When the selector lever cannot be
shifted from the “P” (PARK) position to
another position while the brake pedal
is pressed and held down with the
ignition switch at the “ON” position or
the operation mode in ON, the battery
may be flat or the shift-lock mechanism
may be malfunctioning. Immediately
have your vehicle checked by a Fiat
Dealership.
If you need to move the vehicle, shift
the selector lever as follows.

STARTING AND DRIVING

Selector lever positions
“P” PARK
This position locks the transmission to
prevent the vehicle from moving. The
engine can be started in this position.
“R” REVERSE
This position is to back up.
93)
“N” NEUTRAL
At this position the transmission is
disengaged. It is the same as the
neutral position on a manual
transmission, and should only be used
when the vehicle is stationary for an
extended length of time during driving,
such as in a traffic jam.
94) 95) 96)
“D” DRIVE
This position is used for most city and
highway driving. The transmission will
automatically change its gear
depending on road and driving
conditions.
97)
Sport mode
Whether the vehicle is stationary or in
motion, sports mode is selected by
gently pushing the selector lever from
the “D” (DRIVE) position into the manual
gate (A). To return to “D” range
operation, gently push the selector lever
back into the main gate (B).
In sports mode, gear shifts can be
made rapidly simply by moving the
selector lever backward and forward.
For vehicles equipped with the shift
paddles, shift paddles at the steering
wheel can also be used to perform
gearshift. In contrast to a manual
transmission, the sports mode allows
gear shifts with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
If your vehicle is equipped with the shift
paddles, you can shift into sports mode
with shift paddles when the selector
lever is in the main gate as well. Also,
you can return to the “D” range
operation in any of following ways.
When returning to “D” range operation,
the selector lever position display will
change to “D” (DRIVE) position.
Pull the + (SHIFT UP) side shift
paddle forward (toward the driver) for
over 2 seconds.
Stop the vehicle.
Push the selector lever from the “D”
(DRIVE) position into the manual gate
(A) and push the selector lever back
into the main gate (B).
+ Shift up
The transmission shifts up by one gear
with each operation.
— Shift down
The transmission shifts down by one
gear with each operation.
98) 99) 100)
Only the 5 forward gears can be
selected. To reverse or park the vehicle,
move the selector lever to the “R”
(REVERSE) or “P” (PARK) position as
required.
To maintain good running performance,
the transmission may refuse to perform
an upshift when the selector lever or the
shift paddles is moved to the “+ (SHIFT
UP)” position at certain vehicle speeds.
Also, to prevent over-revving of the
engine, the transmission may refuse to
B
A
240AHA106056

perform a downshift when the selector
lever or the shift paddles is moved to
the “— (SHIFT DOWN)” position at
certain vehicle speeds.
Downward shifts are made
automatically when the vehicle slows
down. When the vehicle stops, 1st gear
is automatically selected.
When driving away on a slippery road,
push the selector lever forward into the
“+ (SHIFT UP)” position. This cause the
transmission to shift into the 2nd gear
which is better for smooth driving away
on a slippery road. Push the selector
lever to the “— (SHIFT DOWN)” side to
shift back to the 1st gear.
Sport mode indicator
In sport mode, the currently selected
position is indicated by the indicator (A)
shown on the instrument panel.When a malfunction occurs in the
automatic transmission
When the selector lever position
display blinks
When the selector lever position display
blinks while you are driving, there could
be a malfunction in the automatic
transmission system.
“A” indicator does blink only the
condition that the A/T positional switch
is broken. It does not indicate in normal
driving condition.
101)
When the A/T (automatic
transmission) fluid temperature
warning lamp comes on
The automatic transmission fluid
temperature warning lamp comes on
and a buzzer may sound, when the
automatic transmission fluid
temperature becomes abnormally high.
Normally the warning lamp comes on
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position, and then will go off after
a few seconds.

Passing acceleration
To gain extra acceleration in “D” (DRIVE)
position, push the accelerator to the
floor. The A/T will automatically
downshift.
In sport mode, downshifts do not take
place when the accelerator is
depressed all the way to the floor.
Waiting
For short waiting periods, such as at
traffic signals the vehicle can be left in
gear and held stationary with the
service brake. For longer waiting
periods with the engine running, place
the selector lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position and apply the parking brake,
while holding the vehicle stationary with
the service brake.
109)
Parking
To park the vehicle, first bring it to a
complete stop, fully engage the parking
brake, and then move the selector lever
to the “P” (PARK) position.
If you are going to leave the vehicle
unattended, always switch off the
engine and carry the key.
On a slope, be sure to apply the
parking brake before moving the
selector lever to the “P” (PARK)
position. If you move the selector lever
to the “P” (PARK) position beforeapplying the parking brake, it may be
difficult to disengage the selector lever
from the “P” (PARK) position when next
you drive the vehicle, requiring
application of a strong force to the
selector lever to move from the “P”
(PARK) position.
When the A/T makes no speed
change
If the transmission does not change
speeds while driving, or your vehicle
does not pick up enough speed when
starting on an uphill slope, it may be
that there is something unusual
happening in the transmission, causing
a safety device to activate. Have your
vehicle checked by a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible.
1. If your vehicle has difficulty moving
uphill, shift the selector lever into 2nd
gear of the sports mode. This method
might not work depending on the
transmission malfunction.
2. Once the vehicle is moving on a level
road, move the selector lever back to
“D” (DRIVE).
When the selector lever position display
in the instrument panel blinks, it means
that there is an abnormal condition in
the transmission. Refer to “When the
selector lever position display blinks”.
IMPORTANT
92)Always depress the brake pedal when
shifting the selector lever into a gear from
the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
Never put your foot on the accelerator
pedal while shifting the selector lever from
the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
93)Never shift into the “P” (PARK) or “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in
motion to avoid a transmission damage.
94)Never move the selector lever to the
“N” (NEUTRAL) position while driving. A
serious accident could occur since you
could accidentally move the lever into the
“P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position or
you will lose engine braking.
95)On a gradient, the engine should be
started in the “P” (PARK) position, not in the
“N” (NEUTRAL) position.
96)To prevent rolling, always keep your
foot on the brake pedal when the vehicle is
in “N” (NEUTRAL) position, or when shifting
into or out of “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
97)To prevent transmission damage, never
shift into the “D” (DRIVE) position from the
“R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is
in motion.
98)In sports mode, the driver must
execute upward shifts in accordance with
prevailing road conditions, taking care to
keep the engine speed below the red zone.
99)Repeated continuous operation of the
selector lever or the shift paddles will
continuously switch shift position.
153

100)For vehicles equipped with the shift
paddles, do not use the left- and right-hand
shift paddles at the same time. Doing so
could cause a shift of gear ratio that you do
not expect.
101)If the selector lever position display
blinks while you are driving, it is likely that a
safety device is operating because of a
malfunction in the automatic transmission.
Have the vehicle inspected by a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
102)If the lamp comes on, reduce the
engine speed and stop the vehicle in a safe
area. Then set the selector lever to “P”
(PARK) position and idle the engine until the
warning lamp goes off. When the warning
lamp goes off, resume normal driving. If the
warning lamp does not go off, we
recommend you to have your vehicle
inspected.
103)Before selecting a gear with the
engine running and the vehicle stationary,
fully depress the brake pedal to prevent the
vehicle from creeping. The vehicle will begin
to move as soon as the gear is engaged,
especially when the engine speed is high,
at fast idle or with the air conditioner
operating, the brakes should only be
released when you are ready to drive away.
104)Depress the brake pedal with the right
foot at all times. Using the left foot could
cause driver movement delay in case of an
emergency.
105)To prevent sudden acceleration, never
race the engine when shifting from the “P”
(PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
106)Operating the accelerator pedal while
the other foot is resting on the brake pedal
will affect braking efficiency and may cause
premature wear of brake pads.107)Use the selector lever in the correct
shift position in accordance with driving
conditions. Never coast downhill backward
with the selector lever in the {“D” (DRIVE) or
sports mode} or coast forward with the
selector lever in the “R” (REVERSE)
position. The engine may stop and the
unexpected increase in brake pedal effort
and steering wheel weight could lead to an
accident.
108)Do not race the engine with brake
pedal pressed when the vehicle is
stationary. This can damage the A/T. Also,
when you depress the accelerator pedal
while holding down the brake pedal with
the selector lever in the “P” (PARK), “N”
(NEUTRAL) or “D” (DRIVE) position, the
engine revolutions may not rise as high as
when performing the same operation with
the selector lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position.
109)Never hold the vehicle stationary on a
hill using the accelerator pedal (without
using the brake pedal). Always apply the
parking brake and/or service brakes.EASY SELECT 4WD
(where provided)
Shifting to rear-wheel drive or 4-wheel
drive can be made by operating the
transfer shift lever (A) or the drive
mode-selector (B). Shift the transfer
shift lever or set the drive mode-
selector to an appropriate position
according to the road surface
conditions. In addition, the 2WD/4WD
operation indicator lamp and the
low-range indicator lamp (if so
equipped) indicates the transfer shift
lever shifting state or the drive
mode-selector setting state. Refer to
“Vehicles equipped with the transfer
shift lever: 2WD/4WD operation
indicator lamp” or “Vehicles equipped
with the drive mode-selector:
2WD/4WD operation indicator lamp
and low-range indicator lamp”.

When you place the gearshift lever or
the selector lever in the “R” position
with the ignition switch in the “ON”
position or the operation mode in ON,
the view behind the vehicle will
automatically appear on the screen of
the DISPLAY AUDIO. When you move
the gearshift lever or the selector lever
to any other position, the screen will
return to its original indication.129)
Because the rear-view camera has a
special lens, the lines on the ground
between parking spaces may not look
parallel on the screen.
In the following situations, the screen
indication may be difficult to see. There
is no abnormality.
Low light (nighttime)
When the light of the sun or the light
from a vehicle’s headlamps shines
directly into the lens
If a fluorescent light shines directly
into the lens, the screen indication may
be flicker. There is no abnormality.
If the camera is hot and is then cooled
by rain or a car wash, the lens can mist
up. This phenomenon does not indicate
a malfunction.

Errors between the display and the
actual road surface
The reference lines for distance and
vehicle width are based on a level, flat
road surface. In the following cases,
errors are produced between the
display reference lines and the distance
on the actual road surface.
When the rear of the vehicle is
weighed down with the weight of
passengers and luggage in the
vehicle
The reference lines are displayed closer
than the actual distance. Therefore
when there is an obstacle on the
upward slope, it appears farther than its
actual position.

When solid objects are located close to
the vehicle, the displayed distance on
the screen may differ from the actual
distance.
Because the reference lines do not
contact the body of the truck, it looks
as if it would not hit the vehicle in
following illustration.
However, the vehicle may hit the truck
because the body of the truck strays
onto the course in reality.When approaching solid objects
The reference lines for distance and
vehicle width are intended to indicate
the distance to a flat object such as a
level, flat road surface. This may make
the distance to a projecting object
shown on the screen differ from the
actual distance to the projecting object.
Do not use them as a guide to
distances to solid objects.
