Distribute the load evenly and be careful
to side winds when driving.
WARNING
After travelling for a short distance,
check that the fastening screws are
correctly tightened.
Never exceed the maximum permitted
loads; see chapter "Technical Data".
HEADLIGHTS
LIGHT BEAM DIRECTION
The correct direction of the headlights is essential
for the comfort and safety of the driver and other
road users. To ensure the best visibility when
travelling with the headlights on, the headlight
alignment must be correct. Contact a Fiat Dealership
to have the direction checked and, if necessary,
adjusted.
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition key in the MAR
position and the dipped headlights on.
The vehicle tilts backwards when it is laden, raising
the beam.
The beams must therefore be aimed again in this
case.

Adjusting headlight alignment
Press the
orbuttons on the control
panelfig. 90.
The instrument panel display shows the position in
relation to the adjustment set.
Position 0 - one or two people in the front seats.
Position1-fivepeople.
Position2-fivepeople + load in the boot.
Position 3 - driver + maximum permitted load
stowed in the boot.
IMPORTANT Check the alignment of the light beams
each time the weight of the load transported
changes.
FOG LIGHT DIRECTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the direction
checked and, if necessary, adjusted.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
The dipped headlights are directed for operation in
the country where the vehicle was originally
purchased. In countries where you drive on the
other side of the road, you need to alter the beam
direction by affixing a specially designed self-adhesive
film in order not to dazzle the vehicles travelling in
the opposite direction.
ABS SYSTEM
This is an integral part of the braking system, which
prevents one or more wheels from locking or
slipping regardless of the road surface conditions and
braking intensity, giving the best control 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 For 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.
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can tell the ABS system has come into
action because the brake pedal pulsates slightly and
the system gets noisier: it means that the vehicle
speed should be altered to suit the type of road
surface.
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

SAVING FUEL
Some useful tips are given below for fuel saving and
reducing harmful emissions of CO2 and other
pollutants (nitrogen oxides, unburnt hydrocarbons,
Particulate Matter (PM) etc.).
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
The general factors that affect fuel consumption are
listed below.
Vehicle maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out in
accordance with the “Scheduled Servicing Plan”.
Ty r e s
Check the tyre pressure at least once every four
weeks: if the pressure is too low, consumption levels
increase as resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight
of the vehicle (especially when driving in town)
and its trim greatly affect fuel consumption
and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof
after use. These accessories reduce the aerodynamic
coefficient of the vehicle and have a negative effecton fuel consumption. It is better to use a trailer to
transport particularly bulky objects.
Electric devices
Only use electrical devices for the amount of time
needed. The heated rear window, additional
headlights, windscreen/rear window wipers and
heater fan need a considerable amount of energy,
therefore increasing fuel consumption (by up to 25%
in the urban cycle).
Climate control system
The air conditioner leads to higher fuel consumption
(on average up to +20%). If the temperature outside
is not too extreme, try and use the air vents.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified spoilers may adversely affect
aerodynamics and fuel consumption.

CHANGING A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Before changing a bulb check the contacts for
oxidation;
burnt bulbs must be replaced by others of the
same type and power;
always check the height of the headlight beam
after changing a bulb, for reasons of safety;
when a light is not working, check that the
corresponding fuse is intact before changing the
bulb. For the location of fuses, refer to the
“Changing a fuse” paragraph in this section;
WARNING
Modifications or repairs to the electrical
system that are not carried out
properly or do not take the system's technical
specifications into account can cause
malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain pressurised gas
which may cause small fragments of
glass to be projected outwards if the bulb is
broken.
Halogen bulbs must be handled holding
the metallic part only.Touching the
transparent part of the bulb with your
fingers may reduce the intensity of the emitted
light and even reduce the lifespan of the bulb.
If you do touch it accidentally, rub the bulb with
an alcohol-soaked cloth and leave to dry.
If possible, we recommend have bulbs
replaced by a Fiat Dealership. Proper
operation and orientation of the external
lights are essential for the safety of the running
vehicle, and to avoid incurring legal sanctions.
IMPORTANT The internal surface of the light may
appear slightly misty: this does not indicate a fault,
and is actually caused by low temperature and the
degree of humidity in the air. Misting will rapidly
disappear when the headlights are switched on. The
presence of drops inside the headlights indicates
infiltration of water. Go to a Fiat Dealership.
