Automatic continuous operation ac-
tivatesby pressing control switches for
over half a second. The window will stop
when it is completely open or when press-
ing the button again.
Versions with 4 power windows (front
and rear) are fitted with anti-crushing safe-
ty device to detect the presence of an ob-
stacle in the window closing stroke. If an
obstacle is detected, the safety system will
stop window closing and, according to
window position, will also reverse window
stroke.
IMPORTANT In the event that the anti-
crushing function is activated 5 times in
only 1 minute, the system will automati-
cally enter the “recovery” mode (self-pro-
tection). This conditions is pointed out by
the fact that, in the closing phase, the win-
dow goes up in jerks.
The system conforms to the
forthcoming standard
2000/4/EC concerning the safety of
passengers leaning out of the pas-
senger compartment.
WARNINGSo, it is necessary to carry out the sys-
tem restore procedure, acting as follows:

returns to its normal operation automat-
ically.

or removed, the power windows remain
activated for about 2 minutes and are de-
activated immediately the moment a door
is opened.IMPORTANT On certain versions, press-
ing the remote control button
Ëfor over
2 seconds will open the windows where-
as pressing the remote control button
Áfor over 2 seconds will close them.

FAILURE INDICATIONS
Any failure is indicated by instrument pan-
el warning light
gcoming on together
with the message on the multifunction dis-
play (where provided) (see section
“Warning lights and messages”).
In the event of electric power steering sys-
tem failure, the car can be driven with me-
chanical steering.
IMPORTANT In some circumstances, fac-
tors independent from the electric pow-
er steering could cause the illumination of
the warning light
gon the instrument
panel.
We suggest to stop immediately the car,
turn off the engine for about 20 seconds
and then re-start the car. If the warning
light
gstays on together with the mes-
sage on the multifunction display (where
provided), contact Fiat Dealership.IMPORTANT The steering may become
slightly stiff following parking manoeuvres
including a great deal of steering. This is
normal and caused by a system to prevent
motor overheating. No servicing is re-
quired. The electric power steering sys-
tem will return to normal operation the
next time the car is used.
It is absolutely forbidden to
carry out whatever after-
market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifica-
tions (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect per-
formance and safety, cause the lapse
of warranty and also result in non-
compliance of the car with homolo-
gation requirements.
WARNING
Always switch the engine off,
remove the key from the
starting device and actuate the steer-
ing lock before carrying out any main-
tenance operation, especially when
the wheels are raised from the
ground. In case this is not possible
(e.g. when the key must be in MAR
position or the engine running); re-
move the electric power steering
main fuse before carrying out any
maintenance operation.
