❒driver's door not shut;
❒driver's seat belt not fastened;
❒reverse gear engaged (for example, for parking
manoeuvres);
❒for versions equipped with automatic climate
control (for versions/markets, where provided), if
an adequate level of thermal comfort has not
been reached or with MAX-DEF activation;
❒during the first period of use for a new car, to
initialise the system.
If climate comfort is to be favoured, the
Star t&Stop system can be disabled, for
continuous operation of the climate
control system and avoidance of, for example, the
windows misting up.
ENGINE RESTARTING CONDITIONS
For reasons of comfort, limiting harmful emissions
and safety purposes, the power unit can restart
automatically without any action on behalf of the
driver if certain conditions are met, including:
❒battery not sufficiently charged;
❒reduced braking system vacuum (e.g. if the brake
pedal is pressed repeatedly);
❒car moving (e.g. when driving on roads with a
gradient);❒engine stopping by Start&Stop system for over 3
minutes;
❒for versions equipped with automatic climate
control (for versions/markets where provided), to
enable suitable thermal comfort or with MAX-DEF
activation.
If a gear in engaged during stopping with Start&Stop,
the automatic restarting of the engine is only
permitted by fully depressing the clutch pedal.
The driver is informed by a message on the display
and - for versions/markets, where provided - by
the flashing of the
symbol.
If the clutch is not pressed, about 3 minutes after the
engine stops, the engine can be restarted only using
the ignition key.
In cases of undesired engine stops, due for example
to the clutch pedal being released abruptly with a
gear engaged, if the Start&Stop system is activated,
the engine can be restarted by fully depressing
the clutch pedal.
SAFETY FUNCTIONS
When the engine is stopped by the Start&Stop
system, if the driver releases his/her seat belt and
opens the driver's or passenger's door, the engine
can be restarted only using the ignition key.
The driver is informed by a buzzer and by the
flashing of the symbol
on the display; on some
versions, a message is displayed as well.

"ENERGY SAVING" FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If, after automatic engine restarting, the driver does
not carry out any action on the car for an extended
period (about 3 minutes), the Start&Stop system
stops the engine definitively, to prevent fuel
consumption. In these cases, the engine can only be
restarted using the ignition key.
NoteIn any case, it is possible to keep the engine
running by deactivating the Start&Stop system.
IRREGULAR OPERATION
In the event of malfunction, the Start&Stop system is
deactivated. The driver is informed about the fault
through the flashing of the
symbol on the display
(for some versions together with the display of a
message). In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership.
CAR INACTIVITY
In the event of car inactivity, special attention must
be paid to the disconnection of the battery power
supply.
Proceed as follows: detach the connector A fig. 70
(by pressing button B) from sensor C for monitoring
the status of the battery installed on the negative
battery pole D. This sensor should never be
disconnected from the pole except if the battery is
replaced.
WARNING
When replacing the batter y, always go
to a Fiat Dealership. Replace the battery
with one of the same type (HEAVY DUTY) and
with the same specifications.
IMPORTANT After turning the ignition key to STOP,
wait at least 1 minute before disconnecting the
electrical supply to the battery.

CITY BRAKE CONTROL - "Collision
Mitigation" SYSTEM(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is a driving assistance system that can detect the
presence of nearby cars in front of the vehicle and,
in case of imminent collision, intervenes
automatically, braking the car to prevent the impact
or mitigate its effects.
The system only works if:
❒the ignition key is at MAR-ON;
❒the car speed is between 5 and 30 km/h;
❒the front seat belts are fastened.
The system can be deactivated (and then reactivated)
with the display setup menu (see paragraph “Menu
items” in this chapter).
The system activates if there is risk of imminent
collision and the driver does not press the brake
pedal promptly.
If the system detects that the vehicle ahead could be
hit, it may prepare the car to a possible emergency
braking.
If the driver does not carry out any action to prevent
the collision, the system may automatically slow
down the car, in order to prepare it to a possible
impact.When there is risk of impact, if the action on the
brake pedal by the driver is not sufficient, the system
may intervene in order to improve the reaction of
the braking system, therefore reducing car speed
further.
When driving uphill on a steep slope, the system may
intervene, activating the braking system.
Versions equipped with Start&Stop system:at
the end of the automatic braking, the Start&Stop
system will activate as described in paragraph
"Start&Stop system" of this chapter.
Versions equipped with manual gearbox:atthe
end of the automatic braking the engine may stall
and turn off, unless the driver presses the clutch
pedal.
Versions equipped with Dualogic automatic
transmission(for versions/markets, where
provided): at the end of braking the last gear stored
remains engaged.
IMPORTANT Both on versions equipped with
manual gearbox and on those with Dualogic
automatic transmission (for versions/markets, where
provided), after the car is stopped the brake calipers
may be stuck for about 2 seconds for safety reasons.
Make sure you press the brake pedal if the car moves
slightly forwards.
IMPORTANT The system doesNOTactivate
engaging the reverse. The system doesNOTactivate
if the front seat belts are not fastened.

DUALDRIVE ELECTRIC POWER
STEERINGThis only operates with the key turned to MAR and
the engine started. The steering allows the force
required at the steering wheel to be adjusted to suit
driving conditions.
IMPORTANT When turning the ignition key quickly,
full power steering functionality can be achieved after
a few seconds.
CITY FUNCTION ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
Press button CITY fig. 78 to activate/deactivate the
function. The activation of the function is signalled by
the word CITY on the display (in some versions it
is signalled by the word CITY appearing on the
instrument panel).When the CITY function is on, the steering wheel
effort is lighter and parking operations are easier:
therefore this function is particularly useful for
driving in city centres.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to carr y out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect performance and
safety, invalidate warranty and also result in
non-compliance of the car with type approval
requirements.
IMPORTANT During parking manoeuvres requiring a
lot of steering, the steering may become harder;
this is normal and is due to the intervention of the
system to protect the electric steering motor from
overheating, so no intervention is required. When
the car is used again later on, the power steering will
work normally.

WARNING
Before starting any servicing operation,
stop the engine and remove the key
from the ignition switch to operate the steering
lock, particularly when the wheels do not touch
the ground. If this is not possible (for example
if the key needs to be turned to MAR or the
engine must be running), remove the main fuse
that protects the electric power steering.
WIRING FOR RADIO SYSTEM(for versions/markets, where provided)
If no car radio was requested at the time of
purchase, the car is provided with a compartment on
the dashboard fig. 79.
STANDARD EQUIPMENT
The system consists of:
❒radio supply leads;
❒radio housing;
Remove door panels to install the speakers. Have
this operation carried out at a Fiat Dealership.
The car radio must be fitted in the special
compartment A fig. 79, which can be accessed by
pressing the two retaining tabs B in the
compartment itself; power supply cables are located
in this area.

Rear seats (warning light no. 2, no. 3 and no. 4)
For the rear seats, the reminder cycle is only
activated when any seat belt is unfastened together
with an acoustic signal (three beeps) (icon A
fig. 92). If the condition of any (front or rear) seat
belt changes, also the condition of the other
(front/rear) seat belts is reported.
The visual indication (icon A
fig. 92) will start and
stop independently for each warning light if several
seat belts are unfastened. The visual signal will
change condition (icon B
fig. 92) after the
corresponding seat has been fastened again.
IMPORTANT When the ignition key is turned to
MAR, if all the front and rear belts are already
fastened the warning lights will remain in position B
fig. 92 for 30 seconds.
IMPORTANT When the ignition key is turned to
MAR, the belts fastened icons will remain in position
B
fig. 92, whilst the belts unfastened icons will
be displayed as in position A
of fig. 92. If the last
belt is also fastened, the icons will remain in position
B
fig. 92 for 30 seconds then they will switch off.
PRETENSIONERSThe car is equipped with front seat belt
pretensioners, which draw back the seat belts by
several centimetres in the event of a strong frontal
impact. This guarantees the perfect adherence of the
seat belts to the occupants' bodies before the
restraining action begins. It is evident that
the pretensioners have operated when the belt
withdraws towards the reel. This car is also equipped
with a second pretensioner (in the kick plate area).
Its activation is signalled by the shortening of the
metal cable. A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the pretensioner
which is not harmful and does not involve any fire
hazard.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest degree of
protection from the action of the pretensioning
device, wear the seat belt tight to the chest and
pelvis.
The pretensioner does not require any maintenance
or lubrication: any changes to its original conditions
will invalidate its efficiency. If, due to unusual natural
events (floods, sea storms, etc.), the device has
been affected by water and mud, it must be replaced.

WARNING
If the key is inser ted and turned to MAR
when no faults are indicated by the
warning lights, air bags may be deployed if
another vehicle crashes into the vehicle even if
the engine is not running and the vehicle is
stationary. For this reason, children must never
occupy the front seat , even if the car is not
moving. On the other hand, if the key is inser ted
in STOP position, none of the safety devices
(air bags or pretensioners) will be deployed in
the event of impact . Non-deployment of these
devices does not indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
For versions/markets where provided,
when the ignition key is turned to MAR,
the “yellow”
warning light switches on for a
few seconds. If the passenger air bag/side bag is
active, the “yellow” warning light switches off
after a few seconds. If the passenger air bag/side
bag is NOT active, the “yellow” warning light
stays on.
WARNING
The air bag deployment threshold is
higher than that of the pretensioners.
For collisions in the range between the two
thresholds, it is normal for only the
pretensioners to be activated.
WARNING
The air bag does not replace seat belts
but increases their effectiveness.
Because front air bags are not deployed for
low-speed crashes, side collisions, rear-end
shunts or rollovers, occupants are protected, in
addition to any side bags, only by their seat
belts, which must therefore always be fastened.
WARNING
If the “red”
warning light does not
switch on for a few seconds when the
key is turned to MAR, there may be a fault with
the “red” warning light . In this case, the
“yellow” warning light star ts to flash after a few
seconds and, for versions/markets where
provided, the explosive charges of the passenger
air bag and the side bag are deactivated. Before
continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately to have the system checked.
