TRIP COMPUTER
General features
The “Trip computer” is used to display in-
formation on car operation when the key
is turned to MAR. This function allows to
define two separate trips called “Trip A”
and “Trip B” for monitoring the car’s
“complete mission” in a reciprocally in-
dependent manner.
Both functions are resettable (reset - start
of new mission).
“Trip A” may be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– Range
– Distance travelled
– Average consumption
– Instant consumption
– Average speed
– Travel time (driving time).“Trip B”, available on multifunctional dis-
play only, shall be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– Trip distance B
– Average consumption B
– Average speed B
– Travel time B (driving time).
Note“Trip B” functions may be exclud-
ed (see “Trip B on”). “Range” and “In-
stantaneous consumption” cannot be re-
set.Values displayed
Range
This indicates the distance which may be
travelled with the fuel in the tank
assuming that driving conditions will not
change. The message “——” will appear
on the display in the following cases:
– range shorter than 50 km (or 30 mi)
– car left parked with engine running for
long.
Distance travelled
This indicates the distance covered from
the start of the new mission.

ning.
Average speed
This shows the car average speed as a
function of the overall time elapsed since
the start of the new mission.
Travel time
This value shows the time elapsed since
the start of the new mission.
IMPORTANT If information is not avail-
able, the message “----” will appear instead
of the Trip Computer values. Displaying
of the values will be resumed when nor-
mal operation is restored without reset-
ting the values displayed before the prob-
lem nor starting a new mission. TRIP button fig. 26
Button TRIP, set on the top of the right
steering column stalk, shall be used (with
ignition key at MAR) to display and to re-
set the previously described values to start
a new mission:
– briefly press to display the different val-
ues
– hold pressed to reset and then start a
new mission.
New mission
Reset can be:
– “manual” resetting by the user, by press-
ing the relevant button;
– “automatic” resetting, when the “Trip dis-
tance” reaches 3999.9 km or 9999.9 km
(according to the type of display) or when
the “Travel time” reaches 99.59 (99 hours
and 59 minutes);
– after disconnecting/reconnecting the
battery.IMPORTANT The reset operation in the
presence of the screens concerning the
“Trip A” makes it possible to reset only
the information associated with this func-

WINDOW WASHING
The right stalk fig. 46controls windscreen
wiper/washer operation.
WINDSCREEN WASHER/
WIPER
The device can only work when the igni-
tion key is at MAR.
The stalk ring nut can be moved to four
different positions:
Owindscreen wiper off;
≤intermittent;
≥continuous slow;
¥continuous fast.
Move the lever to position A(unstable)
to limit operation for the time for which
the lever is held in this position. The lever
will return to position and the wiper will
be automatically stopped when released.Do not use the windscreen
wiper to remove layers of
snow or ice from the wind-
screen. 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 operation is not re-
stored, even after turning the key and
restarting the engine, go to a Fiat Deal-
ership.
With the ring in position
≤the wind-
screen wiper will automatically adapt to
the speed of the car.IMPORTANT Replace wiper blades as
specified in section “Car maintenance”.

RESTORING STORED 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 stored;
❒engage the gear selected at the time
when the speed was originally stored;
❒press RES B-fig. 47.
INCREASING THE STORED
SPEED
The stored speed can be increased in two
ways:
❒by pressing the accelerator and then
storing the new speed reached;
or
❒by 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. REDUCING THE STORED SPEED
The stored speed can be increased in two
ways:
❒by switching the device off and then
storing a new speed;
or
❒by moving the stalk downwards (–) un-
til reaching the new speed which will be
stored 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.
SWITCHING THE DEVICE OFF
The device can be switch off in the fol-
lowing ways:
❒by turning knob Ato OFF;
❒by turning the engine off;
❒by pressing the brake pedal;
❒by pressing the clutch pedal;
❒by pressing the accelerator pedal; in this
case the system is not really switched
off 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 con-
ditions after ending acceleration.
The device is automatically switched off in
one of the following cases:
❒if the ABSor ESPsystems cut-in;
❒with car speed below the preset limit;
❒in the case of system failure.
When travelling with the de-
vice on, never set the
gearshift lever to neutral.
WARNING
In the event of device faults
or failures, turn knob A to
OFF and contact a Fiat Dealership.
