REAR WINDOW WASHER/WIPER
fig. 45
The device can only work when the igni-
tion key is at MAR.
Operation will stop when releasing the
stalk.
Turning the knurled ring from Oto
'will
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 en-
gaged and windscreen wiper on .HEADLIGHT WASHER
(where provided) fig. 46
Headlight washers are “retractable”, i.e.:
they are located inside the front bumpers
and they are activated when (with dipped
beams on) the windscreen washer is op-
erated.
IMPORTANT Check at regular intervals
correct operation and cleanness of noz-
zles.
fig. 46F0M0356m
Never use the rear window
wiper to remove ice or snow
from the rear window. In these
conditions, the wiper is sub-
mitted to excessive effort that results in
motor protection cutting in and wiper
operation inhibition for few seconds as
a consequence. If operation is not re-
stored contact Fiat Dealership.
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 activate also the rear window
wiper.
Releasing the stalk will activate the smart
washing function as described for the
windscreen wiper.

CRUISE CONTROL
(constant speed
regulator)
(where provided)
It is a device able to support the driver,
with electronic control, which allows dri-
ving at speed over 30 km/h on long and
straight dry roads (e.g.: motorways), at a
desired speed, without pressing the ac-
celerator pedal. Therefore it is not sug-
gested to use this device on extra-urban
roads with traffic. Do not use it in town.DEVICE ENGAGEMENT
Turn knob A-fig. 47to ON.
The Cruise Control cannot be engaged
in first or reverse gear. It is advisable to
engage it in 4th or higher gears.
Travelling downhill with the device en-
gaged, the car speed may increase more
than the memorised one.
When the device is activated the warn-
ing light
Üturns on together with the rel-
evant message on the instrument panel
(where provided).TO MEMORISE SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❒turn knob A-fig. 47to ONand press
the accelerator pedal to the required
speed;
❒move the stalk upwards (+) for at
least one second, then release it. The
car speed is memorised and it is
therefore possible to release the ac-
celerator pedal.
In the case of need (when overtaking for
instance) acceleration is possible simply
pressing the accelerator pedal: releasing
the accelerator pedal, the car will return
to the speed memorised previously.

TO RESET THE
MEMORISED SPEED
If the device has been disengaged for ex-
ample pressing the brake or clutch pedal,
the memorised speed can be reset as fol-
lows:
❒accelerate gradually until reaching a
speed approaching the one memorised;
❒engage the gear selected at the time of
speed memorising;
❒press button RES B-fig. 47.
TO INCREASE THE
MEMORISED SPEED
The speed memorised can be increased in
two ways:
❒pressing the accelerator and then mem-
orising the new speed reached;
or
❒moving the stalk upwards (+).
Each operation of the stalk will corre-
spond to a slight increase in speed (about
1 km/h), while keeping the stalk upwards
will correspond to a continuous speed in-
crease. TO REDUCE
MEMORISED SPEED
The speed memorised can be increased in
two ways:
❒disengaging the device and then mem-
orising the new speed;
or
❒moving the stalk downwards (–) until
reaching the new speed which will be
memorised automatically.
Each operation of the stalk will corre-
spond to a slight reduction in speed (about
1 km/h), while keeping the stalk down-
wards will correspond to a continuous
speed reduction.
DEVICE DISENGAGEMENT
The device can be disengaged in the fol-
lowing ways:
❒turn knob Ato OFF;
❒turning the engine off;
❒pressing the brake pedal;
❒pressing the clutch pedal;
❒pressing the accelerator pedal; in this
case the system is not really disengaged
but the request for acceleration takes
priority over the system. The cruise
control is however active and it will not
be necessary to press button RES B-
fig. 47to resume previous conditions
after ending acceleration.
The device is automatically deactivated in
one of the following cases:
❒ABSor ESPsystem cut-in;
❒ with car speed below the preset limit;
❒system failure.
When travelling with the de-
vice on, never set the
gearshift lever to neutral.
WARNING
In the event of device mal-
function or failure, turn knob
A to OFF and contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship.

Door unlocking in the event
of a crash
In the event of a crash that triggers the fu-
el cut-off switch, the doors will unlock au-
tomatically to enable getting into the car
and at the same time the passenger’s com-
partment lights will turn on. It is howev-
er always possible to open the doors from
the passenger’s compartment by means of
the internal door handles.
If, after a crash no fuel leaks are found and
the car can be started again, reset the fu-
el cut-off switch as specified in the fol-
lowing paragraph. DOOR LOCK fig. 59
To lock all doors at the same time, press
button A, located on the central console
control panel, regardless of the position
of the ignition key.FUEL CUT-OFF SWITCH
The car is fitted with a safety switch that
in the event of a crash comes into opera-
tion by cutting off fuel and turning off the
engine as a consequence.
This device therefore prevents fuel leaks
due to fuel piping breaking.
IMPORTANT After a crash, remember to
remove the electronic key from the igni-
tion switch to prevent battery run-down.
Fuel cut-off switch activation is indicated
by the message “FPS on” on the digital dis-
play.
On the multifunction display, the message
“Fuel cut-off switch on, see Handbook”
is displayed.
fig. 59F0M0013m
If, after a crash, you smell fu-
el or see leaks from the fuel
system, do not reset the switch to
avoid fine risk.
WARNING
If central door locking has
been activated from inside
the car and after a crash the fuel cut-
off switch cannot activate automatic
door unlocking, it will not be possible
to get into the car. In any case, door
opening from the outside depends on
door conditions after the crash: if a
door is badly damaged it will be im-
possible to open it. In this event try to
open one of the other doors.
