STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition to STOPwhile the en-
gine is idling.
IMPORTANT After a taxing drive, you
should allow the engine to “catch its
breath” before turning it off by letting it
idle to allow the temperature in the en-
gine compartment to fall.
Never bump start the engine
by pushing, towing or coasting
downhill as this could cause
fuel to flow into the catalytic
exhaust system and damage it beyond
repair.
Remember that the servo-
brake and power steering
are not operational until the engine
has been started, therefore much ef-
fort than usual is required on the
brake pedal and steering wheel.
WARNING
A quick burst on the acceler-
ator before turning off the en-
gine serves absolutely no prac-
tical purpose, it wastes fuel
and is damaging especially to tur-
bocharged engines.
HOW TO WARM UP
THE ENGINE AFTER IT
HAS JUST STARTED
(petrol and diesel engines)
Proceed as follows:
❒Drive off slowly, letting the engine turn
at medium revs. Do not accelerate
abruptly;
❒Do not drive at full performance for the
initial kilometres. Wait until the coolant
temperature gauge starts moving.
EMERGENCY START-UP
If the instrument panel warning light
Ystays on with fixed light, contact Fiat Deal-
ership.

FAILURE INDICATIONS
Failures of the Selespeed gearbox are
shown by warning light
ton the in-
strument panel, together with the relevant
message (see section “Warning lights and
messages”).
In case of system failure:
❒a buzzer will sound;
❒where provided, the AUTO mode will
be engaged automatically to make it
possible to reach the nearest Fiat Deal-
ership and have the fault eliminated.
In the case of a fault, the system only al-
lows the engagement of first gear (1), sec-
ond gear (2) and reverse (R). IMPORTANT If the engine is stopped with
the AUTO mode engaged, this will be
stored by the system. Indeed, the next
time the engine is started, this condition
will still be active.
IMPORTANT Should the engine go off
with the car on the move, the next time
it is started the warning light
Ymay
come on. In this case check that the warn-
ing light
Ygoes off turning the engine off
and on again with the car stationary. If not,
contact Fiat Dealership.
Never remove the ignition
key when the car is moving.
In addition to the fact that the Sele-
speed system would not work prop-
erly up to stopping the car, the steer-
ing wheel would lock automatically
the first time it is turned.
WARNING
It is absolutely necessary to
turn off the engine and then
turn off the Selespeed system keep-
ing the brake pedal pressed: ONLY
release the pedal when the display on
the instrument panel has gone out.
WARNING
In the event of a gearbox
fault (to any component),
contact Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the system checked
over.

INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
For routine cleaning of interior plastic
parts use a soft cloth moistened with wa-
ter and neutral soap. Remove grease or
persisting stains using appropriate solvent-
free products designed to preserve ap-
pearance and colour of plastic compo-
nents.
IMPORTANT Never use spirit or petro-
leum to clean the instrument panel.STEERING WHEEL/GEAR LEVER
KNOB WITH GENUINE
LEATHER COVERING
These components shall only be cleaned
with water and neutral soap. Never use
spirit or alcohol-based products.
Before using special products for clean-
ing interiors, read carefully label instruc-
tions and indications to make sure they
are free from spirit and/or alcohol-based
substances.
If when cleaning the windscreen with spe-
cial glass products, some drops fall on the
leather covering of the steering wheel/gear
lever knob remove them immediately and
then clean with water and neutral soap.
IMPORTANT Take the utmost care when
engaging the steering lock to prevent
scratching the leather covering.
Do not keep aerosol cans in
the car: they might explode.
Aerosol cans must never be exposed
to a temperature above 50°C. The
temperature inside the car exposed
to the sun may go well beyond that
figure.
WARNING
Never use flammable prod-
ucts like oil ether or rectified
petrol for cleaning car interiors. Elec-
trostatic discharges generated by rub-
bing during cleaning operations could
cause fire.
