MUST BE READ!
REFUELLING
JTD engines:only refuel with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590.
The use of other products or mixtures may irreparably damage the engine with invalidation of the warranty
due to the damage caused.
ENGINE START-UP
JTD engines:make sure the handbrake is pulled up; put the gear lever into neutral; press the clutch pedal
down to the floor without touching the accelerator; then turn the ignition key to Mand wait for the instru-
ment panel warning light mto go out, then turn the ignition key to Dand release it as soon as the engine
starts.
JTD enegines with automatic gearbox:make sure the handbrake is pulled up and the gear lever is in P
or N; then turn the ignition key to Mand wait for the instrument panel warning light mto go out, then turn
the key to D, without touching the accelerator and release it as soon as the engine starts.
PARKING OVER INFLAMMABLE MATERIAL
When functioning normally, the catalytic converter reaches high temperatures. For this reason do not park
the vehicle over inflammable material, grass, dry leaves, pine needles, etc.: fire hazard.

Memorisation of a speed: (only in
4thor 5thgear and at speeds above
40 km/h): Move lever Ato ON, the
current speed of the vehicle is main-
tained and memorised and wording
“ON” under the speedometer symbol
will turn on, on the odometer display.
If necessary, the speed set may be in-
creased by pressing the accelerator
pedal (e.g. when overtaking); when the
pedal is released the system will return
the speed of the vehicle to that mem-
orised previously.
Acceleration or deceleration
(using lever only): when the vehicle
is travelling at an automatic regulated
speed, move the lever Bto deceler-
ate or Cto accelerate.
Disengagement of the device:
press button Don the lever edge.
The device will switch itself off au-
tomatically when the brake or clutch
pedal is pressed.Restoring the memorised speed:
after pressing the brake or clutch ped-
al or after the device has been disen-
gaged, press button Dto restore the
last speed memorised.
Memory deletion:turn button
from ON to OFF to clear all the mem-
ories.
IMPORTANTUse the speed con-
trol system only when the traffic or
road conditions make it possible to
maintain a constant speed.MANUAL GEARBOX
To engage the gears, press down the
clutch and put the gear lever into one
of the positions shown in the diagram
on the gear lever knob.
IMPORTANTTo put the vehicle
in reverse, the vehicle must be sta-
tionary. Then with the engine running,
shift into reverse and wait at least
2 seconds with the clutch pedal
pressed fully to avoid scraping and
damaging the gears and back.

To engage the reverse gear (R) from
the neutral position:
– lift the sliding ring A-fig. 111-112
under the knob and move the lever on
the left and then forward.Press the clutch pedal
fully when changing gear.
The floor under the ped-
al must therefore be clear and
any floor mats must lie flat and
not get in the way of the pedals.ELECTRONIC
AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
It has six gears and a reverse which
adapt to the driver’s driving style ac-
cording to the road conditions and the
vehicle load.
IMPORTANTTo use the auto-
matic electronic gear (and the relative
Shift-lock safety device) in the correct
way, read carefully the following in-
structions.

5)Wait for the warning light mto
go out. The hotter the engine is, the
quicker this will happen.
6)Turn the ignition key to Dimme-
diately after the mwarning light
goes out. If you wait too long, you will
lose the benefit of the work done by
the glow plugs. PROCEDURE FOR STARTING
1)Make sure the handbrake is up.
2)Put the gear lever in neutral.
3) Press down the clutch pedal.
4)Turn the ignition key to Mand in-
strument panel warning light mwill
come on.High current absorption electric de-
vices (climate control system, rear
heated window, etc.) are automatical-
ly deactivated during start-up.
If the engine does not start at the
first attempt, return the ignition key
to Sand then again to M. If it is still
impossible to start the engine, try with
the other key provided with the car.
If you are still unable to start the en-
gine, contact a Fiat Dealership.

DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine when the
vehicle is stationary or at high or low
revs: in this way the engine will warm
up gradually increasing consumption
and emissions. You should drive off
slowly straight away avoiding high revs
so that the engine will warm up more
quickly.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving the engine when
stopped at traffic lights or before
switching off the engine and avoid dou-
ble-clutching as these actions have no
purpose on modern vehicles and serve
only to increase consumption and pol-
lution.
Gear selections
As soon as the traffic and road con-
ditions allow it, shift to a higher gear.
Using a lower gear to liven up accel-
eration greatly increases consumption.
In the same way, improper use of the
higher gears will increase consump-
tion, emissions and wear and tear on
the engine.Top speeds
Fuel consumption increases consid-
erably as speed increases. For exam-
ple, when accelerating from 90 to
120 Kph, fuel consumption increases
by about +30%. Your speed should be
kept as even as possible and superflu-
ous braking and acceleration avoided
as this increases both consumption
and emissions. A “soft” way of driving
should be adopted by attempting to
anticipate manoeuvres to avoid immi-
nent danger and to keep a safe dis-
tance from the vehicle in front to
avoid braking sharply.
Acceleration
Accelerating violently increasing the
revs will greatly effect consumption
and emission: acceleration should be
gradual and not exceed the maximum
torque.CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short trips and frequent cold start-
ing will not enable the engine to reach
optimal running temperature (from
+15 to +30% in built up areas) as will
the production of toxic emissions.
Traffic and road conditions
Heavy traffic and higher consumption
are synonymous: for example, when
driving slowly with frequent use of
lower gears or in large towns where
there are numerous traffic lights.
Winding roads, mountain roads and
bumpy roads also have a negative ef-
fect on consumption.
Enforced halts
During prolonged stops (traffic lights,
level crossings, etc.) the engine should
be switched off.

STORING THE CAR
The following precautions should be
taken if the car will not be used for
several months:
– park the vehicle in covered, dry and
if possible well-ventilated premises;
– engage a gear (Pfor versions with
automatic electronic gear);
– make sure the handbrake is not en-
gaged;
– clean and protect the painted parts
using protective wax;
– sprinkle talcum powder on the rub-
ber windscreen and rear window
wiper blades and lift them off the glass;
– slightly open the windows;
– inflate the tyres to 0.5 bar above
the normal specified pressure and
check it at intervals;– switch off the electronic car alarm;
– disconnect the terminals (–) from
the battery poles (negative pole first)
and check the battery charge. When
the vehicle is in storage, this check
should be carried out once a month.
If no-load voltage is less than 12.5V,
recharge the battery;
– do not drain the engine cooling sys-
tem;
– cover the vehicle with a cloth or
perforated plastic sheet. Do not use
sheets of non-perforated plastic as
they do not allow moisture on the car
body to evaporate.RESTARTING THE CAR
AFTER STORAGE
Before restarting the vehicle after a
long storage, make the following op-
erations:
– do not take dust off the bodywork
without water;
– check if there are fluid leakages (oil,
brake and clutch fluid, engine coolant,
etc.);
– have the engine oil and the filter re-
placed;
– check the level of: brake and clutch
fluid, engine coolant;
