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.
In addition it is the subject of a precise reg-
ulation of the traffic code.
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 head-
lights properly adjusted.
ABS SYSTEM If you have never driven a vehicle with ABS
before, you should practice using the sys-
tem on slippery terrain, obviously with the
necessary safety precautions and keeping
to the Highway Code of the country you
are in. It is also a good idea to read the fol-
lowing information carefully.
The ABS system, integral with the braking
system, prevents the wheels from locking
when braking, makes the most of road grip
and gives the best control when emergency
braking under difficult road conditions.
System is completed by EBD (Electronic
Braking force Distribution), which dis-
tributes the braking action between front
and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT To have the maximum ef-
ficiency of the braking system, it is neces-
sary a setting period of about 500 km
(with new vehicle or after replacing brake
pads/discs): during this period it is better
to avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged
brakes.
The ABS exploits the tyre-
road grip at the best, but it
cannot improve it; you should there-
fore take every care when driving on
slippery surfaces without taking un-
necessary risks.
WARNING
ABS SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can tell the ABS system has
come into action because the brake pedal
pulsates slightly and the system gets noisi-
er: it means that the vehicle speed should
be altered to fit the type of road surface.
If the ABS system cuts in, it
is a sign that the grip be-
tween tyre and the road surface has
reached the limit: you must slow
down to match the speed to the road
grip available.

FAILURE INDICATIONS
ABS failure
ABS failure is indicated by the turning on
of warning light
>
on the instrument pan-
el together with the message on the mul-
tifunction display (for versions/markets,
where provided), (see section “Warning
lights and messages”).
In this case the braking system is still effi-
cient, though without the aid of the ABS
system. Drive carefully to the closest Fiat
Dealership to have the system checked.BRAKE ASSIST
(emergency braking assistance
integral with ESC)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The system, which cannot be cut out, rec-
ognizes emergency braking (on the ground
of the brake pedal operation speed) and
considerably increases the pressure in the
brake circuit.
Brake Assist is deactivated on vehicles
equipped with ESC, in the event of ESC
system failure (indicated by the switching
on of warning light
™
).
When the ABS cuts in, and
you feel the brake pedal pul-
sating, do not remove your foot, but
keep it pressed; in doing so you will
stop in the shortest amount of space
possible under the current road con-
ditions.
WARNING
EBD failure
EBD failure is indicated by the turning on
of warning lights
>
, x
and STOP on the
instrument panel together with the mes-
sage on the multifunction display (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided), (see sec-
tion “Warning lights and messages”).
In this case with sharp braking the rear
wheels might lock too early, with the pos-
sibility of skidding. Drive extremely care-
fully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have
the system checked.
If warning light
x
alone
comes on (together with the
message on the multifunction display,
for versions/markets, where provid-
ed), stop the vehicle immediately and
contact the nearest Fiat Dealership.
Fluid leaks from the hydraulic system,
in fact, can compromise the braking
system, both traditional systems and
systems with ABS.

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.

AT THE FILLING
STATIONOperation 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.

SEAT BELTSUSING THE SEAT BELTS fig. 1
The seat belt should be worn keeping the
torso straight and rested against the seat
back.
To fasten the seat belt, hold the tongueAand insert it into the buckle B
B, until it
clicks into place.
If the seat belt jams during removal, let it
rewind for a short stretch, then pull it out
again without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belt, press button C
C.
Guide the seat belt while it is rewinding,
to prevent it from twisting.
Through the retractor, the seat belt au-
tomatically adapts to the body of the oc-
cupant wearing it, allowing freedom of
movement.
The retractor may lock when the car is
parked on a steep slope: this is normal.
Furthermore, the retractor mechanism
locks the belt if it is pulled sharply or in
the event of sudden braking, impacts or
high-speed bends.
The rear seat is fitted with inertial seat
belts with three fixing points and a re-
tractor.

WARNING
USING THE FRONT
SEAT BELTS
With front airbags: driver and passenger
(for versions/markets, where provided).
The front seats are equipped with py-
rotechnic pretensioners and load limiters.
See paragraphs - pretensioners and load
limiters;
If the vehicle is equipped with a 2-seat
front bench, and the passenger front
airbag is not available, the seat belt of the
central passenger is not equipped with the
pyrotechnic pretensioner; the height of
the seat belt associated with the centre
seat cannot be adjusted.
The front seat belts are height-adjustable,
in order to adapt to the body of the oc-
cupants. This precaution may considerably
reduce the risk of injury in the event of an
impact. Correct adjustment is obtained
when the belt passes approximately half
way between the shoulder and the neck.
To carry out the adjustment, press gripAand raise or lower the cursor.

WARNING
USE OF THE SEAT BELT ON
THE REAR SEATS fig. 2
If the vehicle is provided with a single seat
and a double seat, the three seats are
equipped with seats belts with three fix-
ing points and retractors. The central seat
is equipped with a guide and with the seat
belt retractor, integral to the backrest.
The three seats of the bench (long cab
chassis versions) have seat belts with reels.
The seat belts are integral with the back-
rest of the bench seat. Be careful and fas-
ten the seat belt in the corresponding
locking device.
For the second and third row, always in-
sert the seat belt in the corresponding
housing. Do not exchange the seat belt or
the housing of the side seats with those of
the central seat.
After folding or moving the
seat, make sure that the seat
belt is correctly wound and that the
dedicated housing is ready for lock-
ing.
WARNING
Make sure that the backrest
is correctly fixed on both
sides to prevent it from projecting for-
wards, hurting the passengers, in the
event of a sudden braking.
