INSTRUMENTS
Instrument background colour and type may vary ac-
cording to the version.
SPEEDOMETER fig. 14
This shows the speed of the vehicle.
REV COUNTER fig. 15
The rev counter shows the number of engine revolutions
per minute.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection control system
gradually shuts off the flow of fuel when the engine is over-
revving, resulting in a gradual loss of engine power.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter may indicate a
gradual or sudden increase of the rate.
This is normal and does not indicate a fault. It may becaused, for example, by the operation of the climate con-
trol system or fan. In these cases, a slow change in revs is
used to protect the battery charge.
FUEL GAUGE fig. 16
This shows the amount of fuel left in the tank.
E tank empty.
F tank full.
The reserve warning light A comes on to indicate that
approximately 7 litres of fuel are left in the tank.
Do not travel with the fuel tank almost empty: the gaps
in fuel delivery could damage the catalyst.
See the description in the “Refuelling” paragraph.
IMPORTANT The needle will point to E and warning light
A will blink to indicate a fault in the system. If this is the
case, go to a Fiat Dealership to have the system checked.

ANTI-PINCH SAFETY SYSTEM
The sunroof has an anti-pinch safety system capable of de-
tecting the presence of an obstacle whilst the roof is clos-
ing; when this happens, the system stops and the move-
ment of the glass is immediately reversed.
INITIALISATION PROCEDURE
The sunroof must be re-initialised after disconnecting the
battery or if the relevant protection fuse is blown.
Proceed as follows:
❒press button A-fig. 83 at close position;
❒hold the button down so that the sunroof closes in
stages;
❒after full closing, wait for sunroof’s electric motor
to stop.
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key from the
ignition to avoid the risk of injury to those still inside the
car due to accidental operation of the sunroof. Improper
use of the roof can be dangerous. Before and during op-
eration, always check that no-one is exposed to the risk
of being injured by the moving sunroof or by objects get-
ting caught and dragged by it.
F0U0077mfig. 84
EMERGENCY OPERATION
If the switch does not work, the sunroof can be operat-
ed manually as follows:
❒remove the protection cap located between the two
shutters;
❒take the Allen key (provided as standard) from the tool-
box in the boot;
❒insert the key into hole A-fig. 84 and turn it:
– clockwise to open the roof;
– anticlockwise to close the roof.

IMPORTANT With central locking on, pulling the internal
handle of one of the front doors will unlock that door.
Individual doors can be unlocked by pulling the internal
handle of one of the rear doors.
If a power supply is not present (blown fuse, battery dis-
connected, etc.) it is, however, possible to lock the doors
manually.
After exceeding 20 km/h, all the doors will be locked au-
tomatically if the setup menu function has been selected
(see “Multifunction display” paragraph in this section).
DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets where provided)
This safety device inhibits the operation of:
❒interior handles;
❒locking/unlocking button A-fig. 87;
thereby preventing the opening of the doors from inside
the passenger compartment if there has been a break-in
attempt (e.g. a window has been broken).
The dead lock device therefore offers the best possible
protection against break-in attempts. We recommend en-
gaging it whenever the vehicle is parked and left unat-
tended.
Once the dead lock system is engaged, it
is impossible to open the doors from inside
the vehicle. Before getting out of the car, please
therefore check that there is no-one left inside.
If the remote control battery is flat, the system
can be disengaged only by inserting the key in ei-
ther of the door locks as described previously: in
this case the device remains active only for the
rear doors.
WARNING
Device activation
The dead lock device is automatically activated on every
door when you double-tap button Áon the remote con-
trol fig. 85.
Device activation is indicated by 3 flashes of the direction
indicators and the flashing of the LED on button A-fig. 87
on the dashboard.
If one or more of the doors is not closed correctly, the
dead lock device will not activate, thus preventing a per-
son from getting stuck inside the passenger compartment
by entering the car through, and then closing, the open
door.

Improper use of the electric windows can
be dangerous. Before and during opera-
tion, always check that no-one is exposed to the
risk of being injured either directly by the moving
window or through objects getting caught and be-

ways remove the key from the ignition to avoid
the risk of injury to anyone remaining in the
car due to accidental operation of the electric
windows.
