118GETTING THE BEST OUT OF YOUR VEHICLE
– braking (accelerator pedal release
time and braking system operation);
– type of programme (gearshift se-
lector lever position);
– winter driving (driving wheel
torque reduction);
– driving with trailer or uphill (vehi-
cle speed in relation to transmitted
torque)
– driving downhill (vehicle accelera-
tion in relation to the position of the
accelerator pedal);
– driving in towns or queues (accel-
erator pedal position and vehicle
speed);
– gear required by the driver
(gearshift lever position);
– cold starting (engine temperature).Gearshift programme control
To optimise vehicle handling the
electronic control unit has the fol-
lowing memorised programmes:
– automatic operation;
– manual operation;
– winter driving (to be selected
through buttonWINTER);
– engine warming up;
– protection against excessive gear-
box oil temperature .Automatic programme
This comprises 16 gearshifting pro-
grammes.
In relation to the vehicle speed and
torque transmitted, the control unit
detects the slope of the road surface
and depending on the sporty features
chosen, it autonomously chooses the
programme most suited to the situa-
tion.
During gearshifting, the gearbox con-
trol unit asks the injection control unit
to momentarily reduce the torque.
The duration of torque reduction
varies depending on the travelling con-
ditions.

159IN AN EMERGENCY
WITH A SHOP JACK
The vehicle can be raised on a shop
jack if it is empty. This is only possi-
ble from the side by placing the jack at
the points provided in the underbody
as indicated infig. 41.
WITH AN ARM HOIST
The vehicle must be raised by plac-
ing the ends of the arms at the points
indicated in fig. 41.TOWING THE
VEHICLE
The vehicle has two eyes for an-
choring the tow hitch fig. 42.
A- Front eye
B- Rear eye (for towing another ve-
hicle).
fig. 42
F0D0177m
Before starting to tow, turn
the ignition key to MAR
and then to STOP. Do not remove
the key. If the key is removed, the
steering lock engages automatical-
ly which prevents the wheels being
turned.
WARNING
While the vehicle is being
towed with the engine off,
remember that the brake pedal and
steering will require more effort as
you no longer have the benefit of
the power brakes and power steer-
ing. Do not use flexible cables to
tow. Avoid jerking. Whilst towing,
ensure that coupling to the vehicle
does not damage the surrounding
components.
WARNING

160IN AN EMERGENCY
IF AN ACCIDENT
OCCURS
– It is important to keep calm.
– If you are not directly involved in
the accident, stop at least ten metres
away from the accident.
– If you are on a motorway, do not
obstruct the emergency lane with
your vehicle.
– Turn the engine off and the haz-
ard lights on.
– At night, illuminate the scene of the
accident with your headlights.
– Act carefully, you must not risk be-
ing run over.
– Mark the accident by putting the
red triangle at the regulatory distance
from the vehicle where it can be clear-
ly see.
– If the doors are blocked, do not at-
tempt to smash the windscreen to get
out of the vehicle. It is made of layered
glass and is very hard. Side and rear
windows are much more easily bro-
ken. VEHICLE WITH AUTOMATIC
GEARBOX
If towing is not due to gearbox faults,
proceed as follows:
– gearshift lever to N;
– do not exceed 50 km/h;
– the vehicle should not be towed
for more than 200 km.
If towing is due to gearbox faults or
the vehicle should be towed for more
than 200 km, tow the vehicle raising
the front wheels from the ground.– Call for rescue making the infor-
mation you give as accurate as you
can.On the motorway use the special
column-mounted emergency phones.
– In pile-ups on the motorway, par-
ticularly when the visibility is bad,
there is a high risk of other vehicles
running into those already
stopped.Get out of the vehicle imme-
diately and take refuge behind the
guard rail.
– Remove the ignition keys from the
vehicles involved.
– If you can smell petrol or other
chemicals, do not smoke and make
sure all cigarettes are extinguished.
– Use a fire extinguisher, blanket, sand
or earth to put out fires no matter how
small they are. Never use water.
When towing the vehicle
you must comply with the
specific traffic regulations regard-
ing the tow hitch and how to tow
on the road.
