GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

IMPORTANT System intervention
set-up can be engaged only with "Off
Road" mode activated.
System intervention
To activate the system reach a speed
slower than 25 km/h. After reaching the
desired speed, release the accelerator
and brake pedals completely. If you
want to increase/decrease the speed,
press the accelerator/brake pedals
again.
IMPORTANT The system is also
available for very low speeds between
the gearbox must be set to neutral to
prevent engine stalling.IMPORTANT For speeds above 9 km/h,
the HDC system must be used with a
gear that is suitable for the set speed,
in order to prevent possible engine
stalling. While the HDC system is
operating it is also possible to take
control of the vehicle again by pressing
the brake and accelerator pedals. If
the HDC is not available when system
intervention set-up is engaged, this
could be due to brake overheating. In
this case, wait for a few minutes.
IMPORTANT The system is available for
speeds between 5 km/h and 25 km/h.
It is advisable to use the system with
low gears (first, second and third).
IMPORTANT On level ground in urban
areas it is advisable to deactivate the
HDC system intervention set-up, since
for speeds below 25 km/h in some
usage conditions, such as when setting
off, gearshifting and driving over road
humps without using the accelerator
pedal, the system might activate.
Disabling the system
To deactivate the system, turn the ring
nut fig. 49 to the left, keeping it in
this position until LED 3 on the selector
switches off.IMPORTANT If the braking system
overheats the system will deactivate
through a gradual release of the braking
pressure, leaving vehicle control to the
driver. Deactivation of the HDC system
is accompanied by flashing of the
warning light, by a dedicated
message on the display and an
acoustic warning. To reactivate the
system intervention set-up wait for the
system to cool down and turn the
ring nut again.
IMPORTANT If the speed exceeds
system intervention set-up is
deactivated but is ready for being
reactivated when the speed drops back
below 25 km/h. In this case the
indication on the instrument panel turns
off and the LED on the ring nut stays
on. If vehicle speed exceeds 50 km/h,
the HDC system completely
deactivates and each individual action
made by the system on the brakes
is blocked. To reactivate it, turn the ring
nut again when the speed is again
below 25 km/h.

the required position (the diagram
for gear engagement is shown on the
knob fig. 79).
For 0.9 TwinAir, 0.9 TwinAir Turbo and
1.2 8v 69 HP versions: to engage
reverse R from neutral, raise ring A fig.
79 underneath the knob and, at the
same time, shift the lever to the right
and then backwards.
For version 1.3 16v MultiJet: to engage
reverse R from neutral position, shift
the lever to the right and then back.IMPORTANT Reverse can only be
engaged when the vehicle is completely
stationary. With the engine running,
wait for at least 2 seconds with the

STARTING AND DRIVING
DUALOGIC
GEARBOX
(for versions/markets, where provided)
43)
The vehicle can be equipped with an
electronically controlled manual
gearbox known as Dualogic which
allows two operating modes: MANUAL
and AUTO.
GEAR LEVER
The gear lever A fig. 80, located on the
dashboard, is floating multistable type,
i.e. it has three stable positions and
three unstable positions.
The three stable positions correspond
to neutral (N), reverse (R) and the
central position located between the
unstable positions (+) and (-).
80F1D0107

The unstable positions, in other words
those that are abandoned as soon
as the lever is released, are the
positions for requesting a higher gear
(+), requesting a lower gear (–) and
requesting automatic operating mode
(A/M).
IMPORTANT With the engine started,
any error between the lever position
and the gear actually engaged is
signalled by a buzzer until consistency
is restored.
MANUAL MODE
Proceed as follows:
❒press the brake pedal and start the
engine;
❒if AUTO appears on the display,
move the lever A fig. 80 to A/M
to select MANUAL mode;
❒push gear lever A towards (+) to
engage first gear (if starting from N or
R, simply place the lever in the middle
position) or R to engage reverse;
❒release the brake pedal and press
the accelerator pedal;
❒in driving conditions, push lever A of
the gearbox towards (+) to engage
the next gear up or towards (–) to
engage the next gear down.AUTOMATIC MODE
Proceed as follows:
❒press the brake pedal;
❒start the engine;
❒if AUTO does not appear on the
display, move the gear lever A fig. 80 to

gear depending on the vehicle speed,
engine rpm and intensity with which the
accelerator pedal is pressed, with the
aim of limiting fuel consumption.
“Kick Down” FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If necessary (e.g. when overtaking),
the system downshifts one or more
gears when the accelerator pedal
is depressed beyond the point where it
becomes stiff (and if the rpm allow it)
in order to provide suitable power and
torque for the acceleration requested
by the driver.
IMPORTANT The use of the “Kick
Down” function is recommended only
when overtaking or accelerating quickly,
in order not to increase fuel
consumption.
WARNING
43)Avoid keeping your hand on this lever
except during gear change or AUTO/
MANUAL mode requests.

STOP/START
SYSTEM
125) 126)44)
The Stop/Start system automatically
stops the engine when the vehicle
is stationary and starts it again when
the driver wants to move off. This
reduces consumption, the emission of
harmful gases and noise pollution.
OPERATING MODE

products may damage the surface.
ANTI-THEFT
PROTECTION
The radio is equipped with an anti-theft
protection system based on the
exchange of information between the
radio and the electronic control unit
(Body Computer) on the car.
This system guarantees maximum
safety and prevents the secret code
from being entered each time the radio
power supply is disconnected.If the check has a positive outcome, the
radio will start to function, whereas if
the comparison codes are not the
same or if the electronic control unit
(Body Computer) is replaced, the
device will ask the user to enter the
secret code according to the procedure
described in the paragraph below.
Entering the secret code
When the radio is switched on, if the
code is requested, the display will show

The code is made up of four numbers
from 1 to 6, each corresponding to one
of the dashes.
To enter the first digit of the code, press
the corresponding button of the
pre-selected stations (from 1 to 6).
Enter the other code digits in the same
way.
If the four digits are not entered within
20 seconds, the display will show
"Enter code----".Ifthis occurs, it is
not considered an incorrect code entry.
After entering the fourth digit (within
20 seconds), the car radio will start to
work.
If an incorrect code is entered, the radio
will emit a sound and the display
shows the text "Radio blocked/wait" to
notify the user of the need to enter
the correct code.Each time the user enters an incorrect
code, the waiting time will gradually
increase (1 min, 2 min, 4 min, 8 min, 16
min, 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 16 h,
24 h) up to a maximum of 24 hours.
The waiting time will be shown on the
display with the text "Radio blocked/
wait". After the text has disappeared it
is possible to start the code entering
procedure again.
