ESP SYSTEM ACTIVATION
The ESP system is automatically activat-
ed when the car is started and cannot be
de-activated.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
In the event of a failure, the In ESP will be
automatically switched off and warning
light
áwill appear on the instrument pan-
el along with a message on the multifunc-
tional display (where provided) (see
“Warning lights and messages”). The LED
on the ASR OFF button will light up. Con-
tact Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
Do not take unnecessary
risks, even if your cars fits an
ESP system. Your driving style must
always be suited to the conditions of
the road, visibility and traffic. The dri-
ver is always and only responsible for
road safety.
WARNING
HILL HOLDER SYSTEM
This system is an integral part of the ESP
system and it is provided to facilitate start-
ing on slopes.
It will activate automatically with the fol-
lowing conditions:
❒uphill: car at a standstill on a road with
a gradient higher than 5%, engine run-
ning, clutch and brake pedal pressed,
gearbox to neutral or engaged gear oth-
er than reverse.
❒downhill: car at a standstill on a road
with a gradient higher than 5%, engine
running, clutch and brake pedal pressed
and reverse gear engaged.
At pickup the ESP system control unit will
keep brake force on wheels until reaching
the torque suitable for starting, or in any
case for max. 2 seconds in order to pass
easily from the brake pedal to the accel-
erator pedal.
After 2 seconds without starting, the sys-
tem will deactivate automatically by re-
leasing gradually the brake force.
At releasing, the typical brake disengage-
ment noise indicating that the car is go-
ing to move will be heard.Failure indications
Warning light
èon the instrument pan-
el will light up in the event of a failure (see
“Warning lights and messages”).
IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is
not a parking brake therefore, never leave
the car without having engaged the hand-
brake, turned the engine off and engaged
the first speed.
For correct operation of the
ESP and ASR systems, the
tyres must absolutely be of the same
brand and type on all wheels, in per-
fect conditions and, above all, of
type, brand and size specified.

GEARBOX
To engage the gears, press the clutch ped-
al fully and shift the gear lever into one of
the required positions (the diagram is
shown on the knob fig. 2-3).
IMPORTANT Reverse may only be en-
gaged when the car is at a standstill. With
the engine running, wait for at least 2 sec-
onds with the clutch pedal fully pressed
before engaging reverse to prevent dam-
age to the gears and grating.
fig. 2 - 1.4 version F0R0154m
Press the clutch pedal fully
to change gears correctly.
For this reason, there must be no ob-
stacles on the floor under the pedals:
make sure that mat are always flat
and do not interfere with the pedals.
WARNING
Do not drive with your hand
resting on the gear lever as
the force exerted, even if
slight, could lead over time to
premature wear on the gearbox inter-
nal components.
Version 1.4: to engage reverse Rfrom neu-
tral position, lift the sliding ring Aunder
the knob and shift the lever rightwards and
then back fig. 2.
Version 1.3 Multijet: to engage reverse R
from neutral position, shift the lever right-
wards and then back fig. 2.

EMERGENCY START-UP
Go to a Fiat Dealership immediately if in-

on steady.
JUMP STARTING fig. 1
If the battery is flat, the engine may be
started using an auxiliary battery with the
same capacity or a little higher than the
flat one. Proceed as follows to start the engine:
❒connect positive terminals (+near the
terminal) of the two batteries with a
jump lead;
❒with a second lead, connect the nega-
tive terminal (–) of the auxiliary battery
to an earthing point
Eon the engine or
the gearbox of the car to be started;
❒start the engine;
❒when the engine has been started, re-
move the leads reversing the order
above.
If after a few attempts the engine does not
start, do not insist but contact the near-
est Fiat Dealership.
This procedure must be per-
formed by expert personnel
because incorrect actions may cause
electrical discharge of considerable in-
tensity. Furthermore, battery fluid is
poisonous and corrosive: avoid contact
with your skin and eyes. Keep naked
flames away from the battery. No
smoking. Do not cause sparks.
