DRIVING MIRROR fig. 32
The mirror is fitted with a safety device
that causes it to be released in the event
of a violent crash.
STEERING WHEEL
The driver can adjust the steering wheel
position both axially and in height.
Proceed as follows:
❒release the lever A-fig. 31pushing it
forwards (position 2);
❒adjust the steering wheel as required;
❒lock the lever Apulling it towards the
steering wheel (position 1).fig. 31F0R0026m
Any adjustment of the steer-
ing wheel position must be
carried out only with the car station-
ary and the engine turned off.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to
carry out whatever after-
market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifica-
tions (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect per-
formance and safety, cause the lapse
of warranty and also result in non-
compliance of the car with homolo-
gation requirements.

USING THE CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM
The system can be started in different
ways, but it is advisable to start by press-
ing the AUTObutton and then turning
the knobs to set the temperature required
on the display.
The system will start running automatically
in this way and the set comfortable tem-
perature will be reached as quickly as pos-
sible. The system will adjust the temper-
ature, the quantity and the distribution of
the air introduced into the passenger com-
partment and will manage the recircula-
tion function and the compressor.
Manual intervention is only required for
the following functions during fully auto-
matic operation.
❒Tair recirculation, to keep the
function always either on or off;
❒Zto speed up demisting/defrosting of
windscreen, rear window and exter-
nal rearview mirrors;During completely automatic system op-
eration, you can vary the set temperature,
the air distribution and the fan speed us-
ing the corresponding buttons or knobs
at any time: the system will automatically
change settings to adapt to the new re-
quest.
During fully automatic operation (FULL
AUTO), the word FULLwill disappear
if the air distribution, air speed, compres-
sor and/or recirculation settings are
changed. In this way, the functions will
switch from automatic to manual control
until AUTOis pressed again. With on or
more manually set functions, the intro-
duced air temperature is still managed au-
tomatically by the system, except for when
the compressor is off: in the case, the air
introduced into the passenger compart-
ment cannot be cooler than the outside
air.Air temperature adjustment
knob (I)
Turn the knob either clockwise or anti-
clockwise to increase or lower the re-
quested temperature in the passenger
compartment. The set temperature is
shown on the display.
Turn the knob either all to the right or
all to the left to the extreme HIor LO
position to use the maximum heating or
maximum cooling functions:
❒HI function (maximum heating):
select by turning the temperature knob
clockwise over the maximum value
(32 °C).
This function may be used to heat up the
passenger compartment exploiting the
system potential to the maximum. In this
condition, the system stop controlling
temperature automatically and sets air
mixing to maximum heating. The air speed
and distribution are fixed.
Specifically, if the heating fluid is not suffi-
ciently warm, the fan will not start up at
the maximum speed immediately to limit
introducing excessively cool air into the
passenger compartment.
All manual settings will be allowed when
this function is on.

RAIN SENSOR
(where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the dri-
ving mirror in contact with the windscreen
and has the purpose of automatically ad-
just, during the intermittent operation, the
frequency of the windscreen wiper
strokes as to the rain intensity.
IMPORTANT Keep clean the glass in the
sensor area.
Activation
Move the right-hand stalk knurled ring to
≤fig. 46.
The activation of the rain sensor is sig-
nalled by a control acquisition “stroke”.
Through the set up menu it is possible to
increase the sensitivity of the rain sensor.
The increase of the sensitivity of the rain
sensor is signalled by a control and acqui-
sition “stroke”.
Operating the windscreen washer with
the rain sensor activated the normal wash-
ing cycle is performed at the end of which
the rain sensor resumes its normal auto-
matic function.Deactivation
Change the stalk knurled ring position
from
≤fig. 46or turn the ignition key
to STOP.
At the next start-up (key at MAR), the
sensor will not be reactivated even if the
knurled ring is at
≤fig. 46. To reacti-
vate the sensor, move the ring from po-
sition
≤to any other position and then
return it to position
≤.
Rain sensor activation will be indicated by
at least one wiper “stroke” even if the
windscreen is dry.
The rain sensor is able to recognize and
automatically adjust itself in the presence
of the following particular conditions:
❒presence of dirt on the controlled sur-
face (salt, dirt, etc.);
❒difference between day and night.
IMPORTANT Streaks of water may cause
unnecessary blade moving. “Smart washing” function
Pull the stalk towards the steering wheel
(unstable position) to operate the wind-
screen washer.
Keeping the stalk pulled for more than half
a second, with just one movement it is
possible to operate the washer jet and the
wiper at the same time.
The wiper stops working three strokes af-
ter releasing the stalk.
A further stroke after 6 seconds com-
pletes the wiping operation.

CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short distances and frequent cold start-ups
will prevent the engine from reaching op-
timal running temperature. Consequently,
both consumption (from +15 to +30% on
urban cycle ) and emissions will increase.
Traffic and
road conditions
Rather high consumption is caused by
heavy traffic, for instance when travelling
in a queue with frequent use of low gears
or in cities with many traffic lights. Moun-
tain and rough roads also have a negative
effect on consumption.
Traffic hold-ups
During prolonged hold-ups (level crossings)
the engine should be switched off.TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT NOTES
The car must be provided with a type-ap-
proved tow hitch and adequate electrical
system to tow caravans or trailers. Instal-
lation must be performed by specialised
personnel who will issue the required pa-
pers for travelling on roads.
Install any specific and/or additional rear-
view mirrors as specified by law.
Remember that when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, the brak-
ing spaces increase and overtaking takes
longer depending on the overall weight.
Engage a low gear when driving downhill,
rather than constantly using the brake.
The weight of the trailer on the car’s tow
hitch will reduce the loading capacity of
the car by the same amount. Consider the
weight of the car at full load, including ac-
cessories and luggage to make sure you do
not exceed the maximum towable weight
(shown on the log book). Top speed
Fuel consumption considerably increases
as speed increases. Keep your speed as
even as possible, avoiding unnecessary
braking and acceleration which cause ex-
cessive fuel consumption and increase
emissions.
Acceleration
Sudden acceleration has a very negative
effect on consumptions and emissions: ac-
celerate gradually and do not go over the
maximum torque ratio.
