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.

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.

OF THE VEHICLE
ENGINE STARTINGThe vehicle is fitted with an electronic en-
gine lock device: if the engine fails to start,
see the paragraph “The Fiat CODE sys-
tem” in section “Dashboard and controls”.
The engine may be noisier than usual dur-
ing the first seconds of operation, espe-
cially after it has not been used for a while.
This characteristic feature does not com-
promise functionality or reliability of the
hydraulic tappets: the timing system de-
vised to limit servicing.
We recommend that during
the initial period you do not
drive to full vehicle perfor-
mance (e.g.: excessive accel-
eration, long journeys at top speed,
sharp braking, etc.).
When the engine is switched
off never leave the key into
the ignition switch to prevent
pointless current absorption
from draining the battery.Running the engine in con-
fined areas is extremely dan-
gerous. The engine consumes oxygen
and produces carbon monoxide
which is a highly toxic and lethal gas.
WARNING
Remember that the servo-
brake and power steering
are not operational until the engine
has been started, therefore much ef-
fort than usual is required on the
brake pedal and steering wheel.
WARNING
Dashboard and controls
Proceed as follows:❒
Ensure that the handbrake is up;
❒
Put the gear lever into neutral;
❒
Turn the ignition key to M: the warn-
ing light
m
on the instrument panel
display will turn on;
❒
Wait for the warning light
m
to turn
off. The hotter the engine is, the quick-
er this will happen;
❒
Press the clutch pedal down to the
floor without touching the accelerator;
❒
Turn the ignition key to Das soon as
warning light
m
goes out. If you wait
too long you will lose the benefit of the
work done by the glow plugs. Release
the key as soon as the engine starts.

HANDBRAKE fig. 1
The handbrake lever is located next to the
driver’s seat.
Pull the handbrake lever upwards until the
vehicle cannot be moved. Four or five
clicks are generally enough when the ve-
hicle is on level ground while nine or ten
may be required if the vehicle is on a steep
slope or laden.
IMPORTANT If this is not the case, con-
tact Fiat Dealership to have the handbrake
adjusted.
When the handbrake lever is pulled up
and the ignition key is at M, the instrument
panel warning light
x
will turn on.
PARKINGProceed as follows:❒
Stop the engine and engage the hand-
brake;
❒
Engage a gear (on a slope, engage first
gear if the vehicle is faced uphill or re-
verse if it is faced downhill) and leave
the wheels steered.
Block the wheels with a wedge or a stone
if the vehicle is parked on a steep slope.
Do not leave the key in the ignition switch
to prevent draining the battery. Always
remove the key when you leave the ve-
hicle.
Never leave children unat-
tended in the vehicle. Always
remove the ignition key when leaving
the vehicle and take it out with you.
WARNING

IF THE BATTERY IS FLATIMPORTANT The battery charging pro-
cedure is described only for information
purposes. This operation should be car-
ried out by Fiat Dealership.
Charging should be slow at a low amp rat-
ing for 24 hours. Charging for a longer
time may damage the battery.
Charge the battery as follows:❒
disconnect battery negative terminal;
❒
connect the charger cables to the bat-
tery terminals, observing the poles;
❒
turn on the charger;
❒
when you have finished, turn the charg-
er off before disconnecting the battery;
❒
reconnect battery negative terminal.
The liquid contained in the
battery is poisonous and cor-
rosive. Avoid contact with the skin or
eyes. The battery should be charged
in a well ventilated place, away from
naked flames or possible sources of
sparks: danger of explosion and fire.
WARNING
Do not attempt to charge a
frozen battery: it must first-
ly be thawed, otherwise it may burst.
If freezing has occurred, the battery
should be checked by skilled person-
nel to make sure that the internal el-
ements are not damaged and that the
body is not cracked, with the risk of
leaking poisonous and corrosive acid.
WARNING
ECONOMY MODE
After switching off the engine, when the
key is at the Mposition, some functions
(windscreen wipers, window winders,
map lights, car radio, etc.) can be used on-
ly for a maximum of thirty minutes, so as
to avoid the battery to be run down.
Once these thirty minutes have passed,
the active functions are put in stand-by and
the warning light of the battery flashes, ac-
companied by a message on the display.
To immediately recover the use of these
functions, it is necessary to start the en-
gine and to keep it running for a few sec-
onds.
The time which will be available will be the
double of the engine starting time.
However, this period of time will be be-
tween five and thirty minutes.
If the battery is run down, the engine can-
not be started.

MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANTThe charge in the battery
should be checked every year, preferably
at the start of winter to limit the risk of
electrolyte freezing. This check should be
carried out more frequently if the vehi-
cle is used mainly for short trips, or if it
is fitted with accessories that permanent-
ly absorb electricity even with the ignition
key removed, especially in the case of af-
ter market accessories.

CHANGING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a gen-
uine spare part having the same specifi-
cations.
If a battery with different specifications is
fitted, the service intervals given in the
“Service schedule” in this section will no
longer be valid.
Refer therefore to the instructions pro-
vided by the battery manufacturer.Incorrect fitting of electrical and electronic accessories can seriously
damage the vehicle. If after buying the vehicle, you want to install elec-
tric accessories which require permanent electric supply (alarm, free-
hand phone kit, etc.) contact Fiat Dealership whose qualified person-
nel, in addition to suggesting the most suitable devices, will evaluate the overall
electric absorption, checking whether the vehicle electric system is capable of
withstanding the load required, or whether it should be integrated with a more
powerful battery.
Batteries contain substances
that are very harmful for the
environment. You are advised
to have the battery changed
at a Fiat Dealership, which is properly
equipped for disposing of used batter-
ies respecting nature and the law.If the vehicle is left inactive
for long periods at cold, re-
move the battery and store it in a
warm place to prevent freezing.
