MANUAL DEACTIVATION OF
PASSENGER’S FRONT AIR BAG
Should it be absolutely necessary to car-
ry a child on the front seat, the passenger’s
front air bag can be deactivated.
Deactivation/reactivation takes place with
ignition key at STOP, and operating it in
the special key switch on the right-hand
side of the dashboard. You can reach the
switch only if the door is opened.
When the door is open, the key can be in-
serted and removed in both positions.
IMPORTANT Operate the switch only
when the engine is not running and the ig-
nition key is removed.The key-operated switch has two posi-
tions fig. 23:
❒Passenger’s front air bag activated (ON
position
P): warning light Fon in-
strument panel off; it is absolutely pro-
hibited to carry a child on the front
seat.
❒Passenger’s front air bag deactivated
(OFF position F): warning light Fon instrument panel on; it is possible to
carry a child protected by special re-
straint system on the front seat.The warning light
Fon the instrument
panel stays on permanently until the pas-
senger’s air bag is reactivated.
Deactivation of the passenger’s front air
bag does not inhibit operation of the side
bag.

IMPORTANT The front air bags and/or
front and rear side bags (if fitted) may be
deployed if the car is subject to heavy
knocks or accidents involving the under-
body area, such as for example violent
shocks, against steps, kerbs or low obsta-
cles, falling of the car in big holes or sags
in the road.
IMPORTANT When the airbag inflates it
emits a small amount of dusts. These dusts
are harmless and is not the beginning of
a fire; then the unfold cushion surface and
the car interiors can be covered by a dusty
remains: this dust can irritate skin and
eyes. In case of contact, wash yourself us-
ing neutral soap and water.IMPORTANT Should an accident occur in
which any of the safety devices is activat-
ed, take the car to a Fiat Dealership to
have the devices activated replaced and to
have the system checked.
Every control, repair and replacement op-
erations concerning the air bags must on-
ly be carried out c/o Fiat Dealership.
If you are having the car scrapped, have
the air bag system deactivated at a Fiat
Dealership first. If the car changes own-
ership, the new owner must be informed
of the method of use of air bags and the
above warnings and also be given this
“Owner Handbook”.
IMPORTANT The triggering of preten-
sioners, front air bags and side bags (front
and rear) is decided in a differentiated
manner by the electronic control unit, de-
pending on the type of crash. The failure
to deploy one or more of them does not
mean that the system is not working prop-
erly
Never rest head, arms and
elbows on the door, on the
windows and in the window bag area
to prevent possible injuries during in-
flation phase.
WARNING
Never lean head, arms and
elbows out of the window.
WARNING
Life and validity of pyrotech-
nic charge and coil contact
are indicated on the label inside the
lower oddment compartment. As this
date approaches, contact Fiat Deal-
ership to have them replaced.

SYSTEM ACTIVATION
Turning the ignition key to MAR, after
about one second, the display shows the
gear engaged (N, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, R): from this
moment onwards, the Selespeed system
accepts gearshift commands.
IMPORTANT If after 10 seconds the dis-
play does not show the gear engaged, turn
the ignition key to STOP, and wait for the
display to turn off, then repeat system
switch on. If the fault persists, contact Fi-
at Dealership.
IMPORTANT When the driver’s door is
opened the system starts the hydraulic
part of the system to prepare it for when
the engine is started. MOVING-OFF
With the engine on and the car stationary,
the gears that can be engaged for moving
off are only first (1), second (2) and/or re-
verse (R).
To engage them it is possible, keeping the
brake pedal pressed, to use only the
gearshift lever on the central console.
Moving off of the car is obtained releas-
ing the brake pedal and gradually press-
ing the accelerator pedal.
With the ASR system off (pressing the
ASR off button) moving off will be more
“brilliant”.
IMPORTANT Reverse gear (R) can be en-
gaged from any of the following other
gears: neutral (N), first (1) or second (2)
only when the car is stationary.IMPORTANT If when shifting from re-
verse (R) / first (1) or neutral (N) / first (1)
sticking occurs on the first gear, the sys-
tem automatically engages second gear (2).
This is not to be considered as a fault as
it is part of the operating logic. For the
same reason, in the case of sticking on re-
verse gear, the system partially closes the
clutch to allow gear engagement; in this
case the engagement of reverse gear (R)
will not be as smooth as usual.
After a request to shift gear
with the car stationary, be-
fore pressing the accelerator pedal to
make the car move, the driver must
always check the display to see that
the gear engaged is the one required.

CORRECT USE

STOPPING THE CAR
To stop the car, simply release the accel-
erator pedal and, if necessary press the
brake pedal.
Regardless of the gear engaged and the op-
erating mode activated (MANUAL or AU-
TO) the system automatically disengages
the clutch and shifts to a lower gear.
Stopping the car the system automatical-
ly engages the first gear (1).PARKING THE CAR
To park the car safely it is absolutely nec-
essary to engage first gear (1) or reverse
(R) and also the handbrake if the car is on
a slope.
When turning off the engine with the car
on an uphill slope and a gear engaged, it
is absolutely necessary to wait for the dis-
play showing the gear engaged to go off
before releasing the brake pedal.
If the gearbox is in neutral (N) and want-
ing to engage a parking gear, the system
should be activated and with the foot on
the brake pedal it is necessary to engage
first gear (1) or reverse (R).
TOWING THE CAR
See the instructions contained in para-
graph “Towing the car” in section “In an
emergency”. BUZZER WARNINGS
The buzzer is activated when:
❒reverse gear is engaged (R);
❒clutch overheating occurs when mov-
ing off (in this case it is necessary to
“force” start-up without hesitation or,
if the car is on a slope, release the ac-
celerator and use the brake pedal to
stop the car);
❒an attempt is made to start the engine
with a gear engaged and the brake ped-
al is not pressed completely;
Still for safety reasons, when the car is sta-
tionary, with engine started gear engaged,
the system activates the buzzer and au-
tomatically shifts to neutral (N) when:
❒no action is made on the accelerator
and/or brake pedal for at least 3 min-
utes;
❒the brake is pressed for over 10 min-
utes;
❒the driver’s door is opened and no ac-
tion is made on the accelerator and
brake by at least 2 seconds;
❒a gearbox failure has been detected.
