PNEUMATIC
SUSPENSIONS
In some versions the tires rear suspen-
sions self-leveling may be included as an
optional.
According to versions suspensions can be
adjusted manually or automatically.
MANUAL ADJUSTMENT
The controls fig.109are located in the
rear right of the vehicle.
Height adjustment
The height adjustment varies from a max-
imum alignmentto an intermediate
alignmentto a minimum alignment.
The reaching of the two stabilities, maxi-
mum or minimum is signalled by 3 “beeps”.
By pressing down twice on one of the A
buttons (starting from the minimum align-
ment position) or one of the Bbuttons
(starting from the maximum alignment po-
sition), the system will automatically ad-
just the setting to the intermediate align-
ment.
fig. 109F0P0102m
Before starting the manual
adjustment procedure with
doors open, make sure there
is enough space around the
vehicle.
First-time use
To initialize the system, keep pushbutton
C-fig.109pressed for 2 seconds
Operating faults
If, when acting on the controls, the sus-
pensions do not adjust, 3 acoustic warn-
ings indicate a system malfunction.
This malfunction could be due to one of
these causes:
❒the brake pedal is pressed and the ig-
nition key is in Mposition
❒excessive use of the system manual ad-
justment;
❒the battery is low (or completely dis-
charged);
❒a tire suspension system error.
If the acoustic warning persists, contact
the Fiat Dealership. The required height level should be set
with vehicle at a standstill and engine run-
ning or off.
With engine off, manual adjustment is on-
ly possible for a restricted number of
times.
IMPORTANT Only make adjustments
with vehicle stationary and:
❒front and side doors closed;
❒handbrake engaged;
❒without pressing the brake pedal.

ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHT
BEAM
Proper adjustment of the headlight beams
is of vital importance for your safety and
comfort and also for the other road users.
To ensure you and other drivers have the
best visibility conditions when travelling
with the headlights on, the headlights must
be set properly. Contact Fiat Dealership
to have the headlights properly adjusted.HEADLIGHT AIMING DEVICE
It works with ignition key at Mand dipped
beams on. When the vehicle is loaded, it
slopes backwards. This means that the
headlight beam rises. In this case, it is nec-
essary to return it to the correct position.To adjust the headlight slant

EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD system (European On Board
Diagnosis) allows continuous diagnosis of
the components of the vehicle correlat-
ed with emissions.
It also alerts the driver, by turning on the
warning light
Uon the instrument panel
(see section “Warning lights and mes-
sages”), when these conditions are no
longer in peak conditions.
The objective is:
❒to keep the system efficiency under con-
trol;
❒ warn when a fault causes emissions lev-
els to increase;
❒warn of the need to replace deteriorat-
ed components.The system also has a diagnostic connec-
tor that can be interfaced with appropri-
ate tools, which makes it possible to read
the error codes stored in the control unit,
together with a series of specific parame-
ters for engine operation and diagnosis.
This check can also be carried out by the
traffic police.
IMPORTANT After eliminating the in-
convenience, to check the system com-
pletely, Fiat Dealerships are obliged to run
a bench test and, if necessary, road tests
which may also call for a long journey.If when turning the ignition
key to M, the warning light
Udoes not turn on or if,
while travelling it turns on
glowing steadily or flashing, contact
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
Warning light Uoperation can be
checked by means of special equip-
ment by traffic agents. Always comply
with the traffic regulations in force in
the country where you are travelling.

Refuelling
To guarantee full tank filling, carry out two
refuelling operations after the first click of
the fuel delivery gun. Avoid further top-
ping up operations that could cause dam-
ages to the fuel system.
FUEL FILLER CAP fig. 116
To carry out fuelling, open lid A, fit the ig-
nition key into the cap lock and turn it
counterclockwise, then loosen cap B.
The sealing of the tank may cause light
pressurising in the tank. A little breathing
off, while slackening the cap, is absolutely
normal.
When refuelling, secure the cap to the de-
vice Cinside the lid.
fig. 116F0F0107m
AT THE FILLING
STATION
Operation at cold temperatures
If the outside temperature is very low, the
diesel thickens due to the formation of
paraffins and could clog the diesel fuel fil-
ter.
In order to avoid these problems, differ-
ent types of diesel are distributed ac-
cording to the season: summer type, win-
ter type and arctic type (cold, mountain
areas). If refuelling with diesel fuel not suit-
able for the current temperature, mix
diesel fuel with TUTELA DIESEL ART ad-
ditive in the proportions stated on the can,
putting first the antifreeze in the tank and
then the diesel fuel.
Refuel with local diesel fuel if the vehicle
is used/parked in the mountains or in cold
areas for a long period.
In this event you are recommended to
keep an amount of fuel higher than 50% in
the tank.The vehicle must only be filled
with diesel fuel for motor ve-
hicles, in compliance with Eu-
ropean Standard EN590. The
use of other products or mixtures may
irreparably damage the engine with in-
validation of the warranty due to the
damage caused. In the event of acci-
dentally filling with another type of fu-
el, do not start the engine and empty
the tank. If the engine has been run
even for only a very short time, in ad-
dition to the tank, it is also necessary
to drain out the whole fuel circuit.
Keep naked flames or light-
ed cigarettes away from the
fuel filler hole as there is a danger of
fire. Do not bend too close to the hole
either so as not to breathe in harmful
vapours.
WARNING
During refuelling, do not open
the left sliding door due to the
fact that the open fuel door.

Use the ignition key to turn the pawl of the deactivation device to OFFto deacti- vate the airbag or to ONto activate it. Warning light “on the instrument pan-el stays on constantly until the front pas-senger airbags and side bag for chest pro-tection (side bag) (for versions/marketswhere provided) are reactivated.
SIDE BAGS
The car is equipped with front side airbagsfor driver and passenger (for ver-sions/markets, where provided) pelvis,chest and shoulder protection (front sidebags), airbags for protecting the heads offront and rear occupants (window bags)(for versions/markets where provided).The front side airbags (for versions/mar-kets, where provided) protect the occu-pants during impacts of medium-highseverity, by placing the bag between theoccupant and the internal parts of the sidestructure of the vehicle. Therefore non-deployment of the side bags in other typesof impacts (front, rear, roll-overs, etc.)does not indicate a system malfunction.
Side airbags (for versions/markets where provided) are not a replacement for, butare complementary to, the seat belts,which you are recommended to alwayswear, as specified by law in Europe andmost non-European countries.
An electronic control unit will inflate the bags, when necessary, in the event of aside impact. The bags will inflate instanta-neously placing themselves between theoccupant bodies and the structures whichcould cause injuries;
