sori Fiat items.
IMPORTANT With the engine off and the
ignition key in the MARposition, the pro-
longed use (e.g. for over 1 hour) of acces-
sories that absorb a great deal of current
may reduce the battery efficiency and
therefore cause misfiring.

Only accessories with power
not over 180W (maximum
absorption 15A) can be con-
nected to the socket.

This is done using non-transparent stick-
er tape as shown in the figure. The figure
refers to passing from left-hand drive to
right-hand drive.
ABS SYSTEM
(where provided)
The car is fitted with an ABS braking sys-
tem, which prevents the wheels from lock-
ing when braking, makes the most of road
grip and gives the best control when emer-
gency braking under difficulty road condi-
tions.
System is completed by EBD (Electronic
Braking Force Distribution), which dis-
tributes the braking action between front
and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT To have the maximum ef-
ficiency of the braking system, it is neces-
sary a setting period of about 500 km: dur-
ing this period, it is better to avoid sharp,
repeated and prolonged brakes. HEADLIGHT BEAM
ADJUSTMENT ABROAD fig. 87
Headlights are orientated as to drive in-
side the country of origin before selling
the car. When travelling in countries with
opposite driving direction, you need to
cover the headlight areas according to the
Road Code of the country you are trav-
elling in.

FAILURE WARNINGS
ABS failure fig. 88
If warning light >lights up on the instru-
ment panel, together with the message on
the reconfigurable multifunction display
(where provided), see section “Warning
lights and messages”.
In this case the braking system will still be
effective, although without the anti-lock
device. Drive carefully to the nearest Fiat
Dealership to have the system checked.EBD failure fig. 89
It is indicated by the turning on of warn-
ing lights >and xon the instrument
panel, together with the message on the
reconfigurable multifunction display
(where provided), see section “Warning
lights and messages”.
In this case with sharp braking the rear
wheels might lock too early, with the pos-
sibility of skidding . Drive extremely care-
fully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have
the system checked. ABS INTERVENTION
When the ABS cuts in, you will feel the
brake pedal pulsating slightly and the sys-
tem get noisier: it means that the speed
should be altered to fit the type of road sur-
face.
fig. 88F0G0158mfig. 89F0G0159mWhen the ABS cuts in, and
you feel the brake pedal pul-
sating, do not remove your foot, but
keep it pressed; in doing so you will
stop in the shortest amount of space
possible under the current road con-
ditions.
WARNING
If the ABS system cuts in, it
is a sign that the grip be-
tween the tyre and the road surface
has reached the limit: you must slow
down to match the speed to the road
grip available.
WARNING
The ABS exploits the road
hold available as much as
possible but cannot increase it. You
should always drive carefully on slip-
pery surfaces and avoid any unnec-
essary risks.
