ENGINE STARTING
FAILURE
99)
Important notes
Do not try to start the engine by towing
or pushing the vehicle. This manoeuvre
could let unburnt fuel enter the catalytic
converter. When the engine is started,
this would ignite, causing catalytic
converter overheating and damage.
If the battery is flat, you can jump start
the vehicle by connecting the batterywith an auxiliary one or with one on
another vehicle using suitable cables.
This manoeuvre can anyway be
dangerous when not performed
correctly. See the indications in the
"Emergency starting" paragraph in the
"In an emergency" chapter.
WARNING
99)Do not try to start the engine pouring
fuel or other flammable fluid inside the
throttle body air intake: this might damage
the engine and injury people nearby.
100)It is dangerous to run the engine in
enclosed areas. The engine takes in
oxygen and releases carbon dioxide,
carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.
101)The brake servo is not active until the
engine is started, so you would need to
apply much more force than usual to the
brake pedal.
102)Do not start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. These
manoeuvres may damage the catalytic
converter.
IMPORTANT
19)We recommend that during the initial
period, or during the first 1600 km, you do
not drive to full car performance (e.g.
excessive acceleration, long journeys at top
speed, sharp braking, etc.).

STARTING AND DRIVING
Page 92 of 204

System deactivation
Deactivation of the system is indicated
by the
warning light switching on
and, where provided, by a message on
the display.
SAFETY FUNCTIONS
When the engine is stopped through
the Stop/Start system, if the driver
releases their seat belt or opens the
driver's or passenger's door, the engine
can be restarted only by using the
ignition device.
This condition is indicated to the driver
both through a buzzer and a message
on the display.
WARNING
109)If the battery needs to be replaced,
always contact a Fiat Dealership. Replace
the battery with a new one of the same
type and specifications.
IMPORTANT
26)If the climate comfort is to be favoured,
the Start&Stop system can be deactivated,
for a continuous operation of the climate
control system.
ELECTRONIC
CRUISE CONTROL
(where provided)
This is an electronically controlled
driving assistance device that allows the
desired vehicle speed to be maintained,
without having to press the accelerator
pedal. This device can be used at a
speed above 30 km/h on long stretches
of dry, straight roads with few variations
(e.g. motorways).
It is therefore not recommended to use
this device on extra-urban roads with
traffic. Do not use it in town.
ACTIVATING THE DEVICE
110) 111) 112)
To activate the device press button 1
fig. 82.
The symbol
on the instrument panel
switches on to signal that the device
has been activated.The device cannot be engaged in 1
st
or reverse gear: it is advisable to
engage it in 3rdgear or higher.
IMPORTANT It is dangerous to leave
the device on when it is not used. There
is a risk of inadvertently activating it and
losing control of the vehicle due to
unexpected excessive speed.
SETTING THE DESIRED
SPEED
Proceed as follows:
to activate the device press button 1
fig. 82;
when the vehicle has reached the
desired speed, press button SET + (or
SET –) and release it to activate the
device. When the accelerator is
released, the vehicle will keep the
selected speed automatically.
If needed (e.g. when overtaking), you
can increase speed simply by pressing
