2007 FIAT 600 fog light

40GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
The use of the hazard
lights is governed by the
traffic regulations of the
country the car is driven in.
These laws should be complied
with.
SWITCHES AND CONTROL
BUTTONS fig. 47
The buttons are located under the
central air vents.
The controls can only be operated
when the ignition key is at MAR.
The LED in the button will light up
when the respective function is on.CONTROLS
HAZARD LIGHTS
These come on when switch A-
fig. 46, is pressed regardless of the
position of the ignition key.
When these lights are on, the sym-
bol on the switch flashes.
Press the switch again to switch the
lights off.

B- Rear foglight on/off button. The
external lights or the front foglights
must be on to switch the rear fog-
lights on. The rear foglights will be

start the engine again.

ADJUSTING THE FRONT
FOGLIGHTS
The foglight beam can be adjusted by
means of screw A-fig. 79.
Have the lights checked at a Fiat
Dealershipand adjusted if necessary. If you have never driven a car with
ABS before, you should practice using
the system on slippery terrain, obvi-
ously with the necessary safety pre-
cautions and keeping to the Highway
Code of the country you are in. It is
also a good idea to read the following
information carefully.
The advantage in using the ABS sys-
tem is that it continues to give you
maximum manoeuvrability even when
braking hard in conditions of poor grip
by preventing the wheels locking.
You should, however, not expect
the braking distance to always de-
crease: for example surfaces with
gravel or fresh snow on a slippery
road will in fact increase the braking
distance.
To exploit the ABS system to the full
in the event of necessity, you should
take heed of the following advice:ABS
The car is fitted with an ABS braking
system, which prevents the wheels
from locking when braking, makes the
most of road grip and gives the best
control when emergency braking un-
der difficult road conditions.
The driver can tell the ABS system
has come into play because the brake
pedal pulsates slightly and the system
gets noisier.
This should not be interpreted as a
fault in the brakes; on the contrary it
is a sign that the ABS system is work-
ing: it tells the driver that the car is
travelling at the limit of its road grip
and that the speed should be altered
to fit the type of road surface.
The ABS is an addition to the basic
braking system. If there is a malfunc-
tion, the system turns off automati-
cally and only the ordinary brakes
continue to work.
If a failure occurs, and, consequently,
the wheel anti-locking system is not
effective, the braking system will con-
tinue to work as usual.

74DRIVING YOUR CAR
Climate control system
The climate control system is a fur-
ther drag on the engine causing higher
fuel consumption (on average, up to
20%). When outside temperatures
permit, use the vents.
Aerodynamic accessories
The use of aerodynamic accessories
not certified for that specific purpose
can diminish the car’s aerodynamic
penetration and increase consump-
tion.BEHIND THE WHEEL
Starting-up
Do not warm up the engine when
the car is stationary, neither by idling
nor revving up. If you do, the engine
will warm up much more slowly and
increase fuel consumption and emis-
sions. It is therefore better to start
slowly and to keep the engine speed
down.
Unnecessary manoeuvres
Do not give quick bursts on the ac-
celerator when waiting at the traffic
lights or before turning off the engine.
This type of action, like the “double
clutch” are absolutely useless on mod-
ern cars. They only increase fuel con-
sumption and pollution.
Gear selection
As soon as traffic conditions allow,
shift up to a higher gear. Using a low
gear to have a sharp acceleration in-
creases the consumption. Likewise,
using a high gear when this is not
called for increases consumption,
emissions and wear on the engine. Roof rack/ski rack
Remove roof racks and ski racks
from the roof of the car as soon as
they are no longer needed. These ac-
cessories reduce the aerodynamic
penetration of the vehicle and will in-
crease consumption. When having to
transport particularly large loads it is
better to use a trailer.
Electric devices
Use electric devices for the neces-
sary time only. The heated rear win-
dow, fog lights, windscreen wipers,
heating system blower require large
amounts of electricity, and as a con-
sequence, the fuel consumption in-
creases (up to +25% in town).

Fasten the tow hitch to the body
without drilling or trimming the rear
bumper that would be visible when
the tow hitch is removed.
IMPORTANT A clearly visible
plate of a suitable size and made of
suitable material bearing the following:

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
When a light is not working, check
that it has not fused before changing
the bulb.
For location of fuses, refer to
IF A
FUSE BLOWS
in this chapter.
Before replacing a bulb that does not
work, check that the contacts are not
oxidised.
Burnt-out bulbs must be replaced
with ones of the same type.
Always check the height of the head-
light beam after changing a bulb.

IMPORTANTOn the inside sur-
face of the headlight there could ap-
pear a slight coat of fogging; this does
not show a defect, since it is a natural
occurrence due to low temperature
and to the degree of humidity in the
air; it will soon disappear as soon as
the lights are turned on. The presence
of drops inside the headlight shows
water seepage, refer to the Fiat
Dealership.
