engine coolant temperature is low. In
such a case, the engine revolutions do
not rise to over 5,000 rpm even if the
accelerator pedal is depressed.
Starting the engine (diesel-powered
vehicles)
Except for vehicles equipped with
the keyless operation system
Insert the ignition key and fasten the
seat belt.
Make sure the parking brake is
applied.
Depress and hold the brake pedal.
On vehicles equipped with M/T,
depress the clutch pedal all the way
and place the gearshift lever in the “N”
(Neutral) position. On vehicles equipped
with A/T, make sure the selector lever is

Fuel injection amount learning
process
To keep exhaust emissions and engine
noise low, the engine very occasionally
performs a learning process for the fuel
injection amount.
The engine sounds slightly different
from usual while the learning process is
taking place. The change in the engine
sound does not indicate a fault.
If the keyless operation key is not
operating properly
Insert the keyless operation key into the
key slot. Starting the engine and
changing the operation mode should be
now possible.
Remove the keyless operation key from
the key slot after starting the engine or
changing the operation mode.Do not insert into the key slot anything
other than the keyless operation key.
This could cause damage or a
malfunction.
Remove the object or additional key
from the keyless operation key before
inserting the key into the key slot. The
vehicle may not be able to receive the
registered ID code from the registered
key. Therefore, the engine may not start
and the operation mode may not
change.
The keyless operation key is fixed, if the
key is inserted in the key slot as
illustrated. When pulling out the key, pull
out in the state.

“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

When the drive mode-selector is set
between “2H”, “4H” and “4HLc”, the
front wheel and/or centre differential
lock lamps blink while the selection is in
process. Take the following precautionswhen the indicator lamp is blinking.
Keep the steering wheel in the
straight ahead position while making
range selections. If you attempt to drive
forward with the steering wheel turned,
gear rattling or shock may occur and
the desired range may not actually be
selected.
When the drive mode-selector is set
between “2H”, “4H” and “4HLc”, while
the vehicle is stopped, the front wheel
and/or centre differential lock lamps
blink while the selection is in process.
Drive slowly and normally after
confirming that the lamp is switched.
If the front wheel and/or centre
differential lock lamps blinking after a
“2H” <-> “4H” <-> “4HLc” selection
has been made with the vehicle
moving, hold the steering wheel in the
straight ahead position and slowly
depress the accelerator pedal several
times.
The front and the rear wheel lamps will
blink during shifting process from
“4HLc” to “4LLc” or vice versa, as the
transfer passes through the neutral
position. Be sure to operate the drive
mode-selector until the front and the
rear wheel lamps illuminate again.
When parking, apply the parking brake
before stopping the engine and make
sure that the front and the rear wheel
lamps and the low range lamp are not
blinking during shifting processbetween “4HLc” <-> “4LLc”.
Otherwise, the vehicle could
unexpectedly move even if the
automatic transmission is in the “P”
(PARK) position
If, after a “4HLc” <-> “4LLc” selection
has been made, front and the rear
wheel lamps continue blinking and the
desired range is not actually selected,
return the drive modeselector to its
previous position. Place the steering
wheel in the straight ahead position,
drive the vehicle forward, and release
the accelerator pedal. Next, hold down
the clutch pedal (with manual
transmission) or place the selector lever
in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position (with
automatic transmission) and make the
range selection again.
If the low range lamp blinks when you
attempt to make a “4HLc” <-> “4LLc”
selection, a “4HLc” <-> “4LLc”
selection cannot be made. Stop the
vehicle and release the accelerator
pedal. Next, hold down the clutch pedal
(with manual transmission) or place the
selector lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position (with automatic transmission)
and make the range selection again.
The active stability control function is
suspended while “4LLc” is selected
indicator lamp is illuminated while
these functions are suspended. It does
not indicate a problem. When “2H” or
“4H” or “4HLc” is selected, this lamp
goes out and function again. Refer to
“ASTC indicator lamp, ASTC OFF
indicator lamp”.

WARNING
210)The “4LLc” range gives maximum
torque for low-speed driving on steep
slopes, as well as sandy, muddy, and other
difficult surfaces. On vehicles with
automatic transmission, do not exceed
speeds of approximately 70 km/h in “4LLc”
range.
211)Do not drive your vehicle in the
“4HLc” or “4LLc” position on dry paved
roads and highways. Doing so may result
in excessive tyre wear, increased fuel
consumption, and possible noise
generation. It may also increase the
differential oil temperature, which may
damage the drive system. Further, the drive
train will be subjected to excessive loading,
resulting in oil leakage, component seizure,
or other serious problems. On dry paved
roads and highways, drive the vehicle in
“2H” or “4H” only.212)Do not operate the drive
mode-selector while the rear wheels of the
vehicle are slipping on snow or ice.
213)If a problem is detected in the transfer
system, a safety device will activate. The
front and rear wheel lamps will go out, the
centre differential lock lamp will blink rapidly
(twice per second), and transfer shifting will
become impossible. Park your vehicle in a
safe place, turn off the engine for a few
moments. Restart the engine. The lamp
should resume normal operation. If the
lamps continue to blink, have the vehicle
checked by a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
