but only checks its correct operation.
After a test of a few seconds, the LED
will indicate the status of the passenger
airbag protection.Passenger's protection active: theLED is off.
Passenger protection deactivated:
the
LED switches on with a steady
light.
The LED may light up with a various
intensity depending on the vehicle
conditions. The intensity may vary
during the same key cycle.

GEAR LEVER
The fig. 118 lever has the following
positions:
P= Park
R= Reverse
N= Neutral
D= Drive, (automatic forward speed)
AutoStick: + shifting to higher gear
in sequential driving mode; – shifting to
lower gear in sequential driving mode.
To select the "sequential" mode, shift
the lever from D (Drive) towards the left.
The reachable positions are + (higher
gear) or - (lower gear).These positions are unstable: the lever
always returns to central position.
The lever has a button 1 fig. 118, which
must be pressed to move it to the P or
R positions.
With the ignition key in the MAR
position, press the brake pedal and use
the button 1 fig. 118 to shift the
selector lever from P to any other
position.
Press the button 1 fig. 118 when the
engine is idling to shift from R to P.
To change from the N to D or from the
N to R positions, you need to press the
brake pedal and the button 1 on the
lever. It is advisable not to accelerate
and to make sure that the engine is
stabilised at idle speed.
Shifting from D to N is free, while button
1 fig. 118 must be pressed to pass
fromDtoR.
AUTOMATIC DRIVING
MODE
To select the automatic driving mode,
you need to shift the gear lever to D
(Drive): the best ratio is selected by the
electronic transmission control unit
depending on car speed, engine load
(accelerator pedal position) and
gradient of the road.
D can be selected from sequential
operation in any driving conditions.“Kick-Down” function
To resume speed quickly, press the
accelerator pedal fully and the
transmission control system may shift
to one or more lower gears (Kick-down
function).
IMPORTANT When driving on roads
with poor grip conditions (snow, ice,
etc.), avoid activating the kick-down
operating mode.
AUTOSTICK - Sequential
mode
The Autostick mode (sequential shift), in
which the driver can decide when to
shift gear, is recommended in some
specific driving conditions, such as
when driving a heavily loaded car on a
gradient, in a strong headwind or when
towing a heavy trailer.
In these conditions, using a lower gear
improves vehicle performance and
prolongs the transmission's life, limiting
gearshifting and preventing overheating.
It is possible to shift from position D
(Drive) to the sequential mode
regardless of car speed.
Activation
With gear lever in position D (Drive), to
activate the sequential drive mode,
move the lever to the left (– and +
indication of the trim). The gear
engaged will be shown on the display.
11807076J0002EM
114
STARTING AND DRIVING

Gearshifting is made by moving the
gear lever forwards, towards symbol –
or backwards, towards symbol +.
Deactivation
To deactivate the sequential driving
mode, bring the gear lever back to
position D (Drive), automatic mode.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Engine start-up is allowed only with the
gear lever in P or N position.
Therefore, on starting the engine, the
system will be in the N or P position
(the latter corresponds to neutral, but
with the car wheels mechanically
locked).
MOVING THE CAR
To move the car, from P press the brake
pedal and, using the button on the gear
lever, move the lever to the desired
position (D, R or "Sequential mode").
The display will show the gear engaged.
When the brake pedal is released, the
car starts moving forwards or
backwards, as soon as the manoeuvre
is activated ("creeping" effect). The
accelerator should not be pressed in
this case.
IMPORTANT The inconsistency
between the speed actually engaged
(shown on the display) and the position
of the gear lever is indicated by theletter corresponding to the position of
the gear lever flashing on the panel
(also accompanied by an acoustic
warning). This condition should not be
interpreted as an operational fault, but
simply as a request by the system to
repeat the manoeuvre.
GEAR ENGAGEMENT
DISABLE
This system prevents you from moving
the shift lever from the P (Park) or N
(Neutral) position if you have not
pressed the brake pedal first. With the
start switch in the MAR position (engine
on or off):
to move the shift lever to a position
other than P (Park) or from N to R, you
must press the brake pedal and the
button 1 fig. 118 on the shift lever knob;
to move the lever from the N
position to the D position, you must
press the brake pedal.
In the event of a fault or when the
vehicle battery is flat, the lever remains
locked in the P position. To manually
release the lever, see the "Dual clutch
automatic transmission - Releasing the
lever" paragraph in the "In an
emergency" chapter.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Versions equipped with key without
remote control: this function requires
the gear lever to be positioned at P
(Park) before extracting the key from the
ignition device. If the car battery is flat
and the ignition key is engaged, the
latter is locked in position. To remove
the key manually see the "Dual-clutch
automatic transmission - Key removal"
paragraph in the "In an emergency"
chapter.
Versions with a Stop/Start system:
in order to switch off the engine, the
vehicle needs to be stopped by
applying appropriate pressure on the
brake pedal. If the pressure is not
sufficient, the engine will not switch off.
This feature can be exploited so that
the engine does not switch off in
particular traffic conditions.
"RECOVERY"
FUNCTIONS
In case of a gear lever failure, the
instrument panel display could show a
dedicated message recommending that
the driver continues driving without
shifting the lever to the P position.
In this case, the transmission will
maintain the forward gear (with reduced
performance) even if the lever is shifted
toRorN.
115

Once the lever is in the P position, or
after turning off the car, it will not be
possible to select R nor any forward
gear. In this case, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
WARNING
118)Never use position P (Park) instead of
the parking brake. Always engage the
parking brake when parking the car to
avoid the accidental movement of the car.
119)If the P (Park) position is not engaged,
the car could move and injure people.
Before leaving the car, make sure that the
gear lever is in position P and that the
parking brake is engaged.
120)Do not shift the gear lever to N
(Neutral) and do not stop the engine when
driving on a downhill road. This type of
driving is dangerous and reduces the
possibility of intervening in the case of
variation of the road traffic or surface. You
risk losing control of your car and causing
accidents.
121)Never leave children unattended in
the car. Always remove the ignition key
when leaving the car and take the key with
you.
IMPORTANT
45)Before moving the gear lever from
position P (Park), bring the ignition device
to position MAR and press the brake pedal.
Otherwise, the gear lever may get
damaged.46)If the car is on a slope, always engage
the parking brake BEFORE moving the shift
lever to the P position.
47)Only engage reverse gear with the car
stationary, the engine idling and the
accelerator pedal fully released.
STOP/START
SYSTEM
(where provided)
The Start&Stop system automatically
stops the engine each time the vehicle
is stationary and starts it again when
the driver wants to move off.
In this way, the vehicle efficiency is
increased, by reducing consumption,
dangerous gas emissions and sound
pollution.
OPERATING MODE
Stopping the engine
Versions with manual transmission
With the vehicle stopped, the engine
stops with gearbox in neutral and clutch
pedal released.
Versions with automatic
transmission
With car at a standstill and brake pedal
pressed, the engine switches off if the
gear lever is in a position other than R.
The system does not operate when the
gear lever is in R, for making parking
manoeuvres easier. In the event of
stops uphill, engine switching off is
disabled to make the "Hill Hold Control"
function available (works only with the
engine running).
