MIRRORS
REAR-VIEW MIRROR fig. 28
The mirror is fitted with a safety device
that causes its release in the event of a vi-
olent impact with the passenger.
STEERING WHEEL
The driver can adjust the height and axial
position of the steering wheel (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided).
To carry out the adjustment, proceed as
follows:
❒release lever A-fig. 27by pushing it
forwards (position 1 );
❒adjust the steering wheel;
❒lock lever Aby pulling it towards the
steering wheel (position 2).
fig. 27F0M0610m
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 any after-market
operation involving steering system or
steering column modifications (e.g. in-
stallation of anti-theft device) that
could badly affect performance and
safety, invalidate the warranty and
also result in the car failing to com-
ply with regulations.

Adjustment fig. 29
This operation is possible only with the
key turned to MAR.
To carry out the adjustment, proceed as
follows:
❒use switch B to select the required mir-
ror (left or right);
❒to adjust the mirror, move switch C in
the four directions;

The mirror can be adjusted to two differ-
ent positions (normal or antiglare) by
using lever A.

Folding
When required (for example when the
shape causes difficulty in narrow spaces),
it is possible to fold the mirrors by mov-
ing them from position 1-fig. 30 to posi-
tion 2.
When driving, the mirrors
should always be in position
1-fig. 30.
As the driver’s wing mirror is
curved, it may slightly alter
the perception of distance.
WARNING
Defrosting/demisting
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The mirrors are fitted with resistors that
are activated when the heated rear wind-
screen is turned on (by pressing button
().
IMPORTANT This function is timed and
it will turn off automatically after a few
minutes.

STARTING
AND DRIVING
DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm up the engine at low or high
revs when the vehicle is stationary; this
causes the engine to warm up more slow-
ly, thereby increasing fuel consumption
and emissions. It is advisable to set off im-
mediately and slowly, avoiding high revs:
this allows the engine to warm up more
quickly.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when stationary at traf-
fic lights or before stopping the engine.
The latter action, like double declutching,
is entirely unnecessary and causes in-
creased fuel consumption and pollution.
Gear selection
Use a higher gear as soon as traffic and
road conditions allow. Using a low gear
for faster acceleration will increase fuel
consumption.
In the same way, improper use of a high
gear increases fuel consumption, emissions
and engine wear. Traffic and road conditions
Heavy traffic, for instance when travelling
in a queue with frequent use of low gears
or in cities with lots of traffic lights, caus-
es fairly high fuel consumption. Mountain
roads and uneven surfaces also have a neg-
ative effect on consumption.
Traffic hold-ups
During prolonged hold-ups (e.g. at level
crossings) the engine should be switched
off.
TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT NOTES
The car must be equipped with an ap-
proved tow hook 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 in accordance with the high-
way code of the country in which you are
travelling.
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 increased
emissions.
Acceleration
Accelerating violently severely affects con-
sumption and emissions: acceleration
should be gradual and should not exceed
the maximum torque.
CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short distances and frequent cold start-
ups will prevent the engine from reach-
ing optimal running temperature. Conse-
quently, both fuel consumption (from +15
to +30% on the urban cycle) and emis-
sions will increase.
