WINDOW CLEANINGThe right stalk controls windscreen wiper/washer
and rear window wiper/washer operation.
WINDSCREEN WASHER/WIPER
It can be operated only with the ignition key turned
to MAR-ON.
The ring nut A fig. 32 can be moved to four different
positions:
windscreen wiper off.intermittent operation.continuous slow operation.continuous fast operation.
Move the stalk upwards (unstable position) to limit
operation to the time for which the stalk is held
in this position.When released, the stalk will return to its default
position and the wiper will be automatically stopped.
With the ring nut A fig. 32 in position
, the
windscreen wiper will automatically adapt operating
speed to the speed of the car.
With the windscreen wiper operational, if reverse
gear is engaged, the rear window wiper is
automatically activated.
Never use the windscreen wiper to remove
layers of snow or ice from the windscreen.
In such conditions, the windscreen wiper
may be subjected to excessive stress and the
overload cut-out , which prevents operation for a
few seconds, may intervene. If operation is not
restored (even after turning the key and
restarting the car engine), contact a Fiat
Dealership.Do not operate the windscreen wiper with
the blades lifted from the windscreen.
"Smart washing" function
Pull the stalk towards the steering wheel (unstable
position) to activate the windscreen 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 after the
stalk is released.

IMPORTANT Check alignment every time the load
carried changes.
FOG LIGHT ALIGNMENT
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the lights checked
and adjusted, if necessary.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
Dipped headlights are adjusted to drive in the
country where the vehicle was originally purchased.
When travelling in countries with opposite driving
direction, to avoid dazzling the drivers on the other
side of the road, you need to cover areas of the
headlight according to the Highway code of the
country you are travelling in.
ABSABS is an integral part of the braking system which
prevents, whatever the road conditions and force
applied to the brake pedal, one or more wheels from
locking and consequently slipping, thus ensuring
that the car remains under control even during
emergency braking.
The EBD system (Electronic Braking Force
Distribution) completes the system allowing the
brake force to be distributed between the front and
rear wheels.
IMPORTANT To obtain the maximum efficiency of
the braking system, a bedding-in period of about 500
km is needed: during this period it is better to
avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged braking.
WARNING
The ABS gets the most from the
available grip, but it cannot improve it ;
you should therefore take every care when
driving on slippery surfaces and not take
unnecessary risks.
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can feel that the ABS system has come
into action because the brake pedal pulsates slightly
and the system gets noisier: it means that the speed
should be altered to suit the type of road surface.

WARNING
When the ABS cuts in and you feel the
brake pedal pulsating, do not raise
your foot , but keep it pressed; in doing so you
will stop in the shortest amount of space
possible depending on the current road
conditions.
WARNING
If the ABS system intervenes, this
indicates that the traction of the tyres
on the road is nearing its limit .You must slow
down to a speed compatible with the available
traction.
MSR SYSTEM
(Motor Schleppmoment Regelung)
This system is an integral part of the ABS, that
intervenes, if there is sudden downshifting, restoring
torque to the engine, thereby preventing excessive
drive at the drive wheels which, especially in poor
grip conditions, could lead to a loss in stability of the
car.MECHANICAL BRAKE ASSIST (emergency
braking assistance)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This system, which cannot be deactivated, recognises
emergency braking conditions (according to the
brake pedal operation speed) and provides an
additional hydraulic braking pressure to support that
provided by the driver. This allows faster and more
powerful operation of the braking system.
WARNING
When the Mechanical Brake Assist
intervenes, noises may be heard from
the system.This is normal. In any case, keep the
brake pedal firmly depressed while braking.

ESC SYSTEM (Electronic Stability
Control)(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronic system that controls car stability
in the event of tyre grip loss, helping maintain
directional control. The system is capable of
recognising potentially dangerous situations in terms
of the stability and intervenes automatically on the
brakes in a differentiated manner for the four wheels
in order to provide a stabilizing torque.
The ESC system also includes the following
subsystems:
❒Hill Holder
❒ASR
❒HBA
❒ABS
❒EBD
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
It is signalled by the flashing of theESCwarning light
on the instrument panel, to inform the driver that
the car is in critical stability and grip conditions.
SYSTEM ACTIVATION
The ESC system switches on automatically when the
engine is started and cannot be switched off.HILL HOLDER SYSTEM
This system is an integral part of the ESC system and
facilitates starting on slopes.
It is activated automatically in the following instances:
❒uphill: car stationary on a road with a gradient
higher than 5%, engine running, brake pressed and
gearbox in neutral or gear (other than reverse)
engaged;
❒downhill: car stationary on a road with a gradient
higher than 5%, engine running, brake pressed and
reverse gear engaged.
When setting off, the ESC system control unit
maintains braking pressure on the wheels until the
torque required for starting is reached or, in any
case, for a maximum of 2 seconds so that the right
foot can be moved easily from the brake pedal to the
accelerator pedal.
When 2 seconds have elapsed, without any
departure having taken place, the system is
automatically deactivated, gradually releasing the
braking pressure. During this release stage, a typical
mechanical brake release noise can be heard,
indicating that the car is about to move.
NOTE: the Hill Holder system is not active with
engaged parking brake.
