The key can be turned to three different positions fig. 7:
❒STOP: engine off, key can be extracted, steering locked.
Some electrical devices (e.g. radio, central door locking
system, etc.) can operate.
❒MAR: driving position. All electrical devices can oper-
ate.

Never extract the key while the vehicle is
moving. The steering wheel should lock au-
tomatically as soon as it is turned. This is always
the case, even when the vehicle is being towed.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to carry out any
aftersales operation involving steering sys-
tem or steering column modifications (e.g. installing
an anti-theft device) that could badly affect per-
formance and safety, invalidate the warranty and
also result in the vehicle failing to comply with reg-
ulations.
WARNING
When getting out of the vehicle, always re-
move the key to prevent someone from
accidentally activating the controls. Remember to
engage the handbrake. Engage first gear if the ve-
hicle is parked uphill or reverse gear if the vehi-
cle is parked downhill. Never leave children un-
attended in the vehicle.

Lane change function
If you wish to signal a lane change, put the left lever in the
temporary position for less than half a second. The direc-
tion indicator on the side selected will flash five times and
then go out automatically.
“FOLLOW ME HOME” DEVICE
This device lights up the space in front of the vehicle for
a short time.
Activation
With the ignition key in the STOP position or extracted,
pull the lever towards the steering wheel and move it with-
in 2 minutes of the engine switching off.
Each time the lever is moved, the lights stay on for an ex-
tra 30 seconds up to a maximum of 210 seconds; then the
lights are switched off automatically.
Each time the lever is moved, warning light 3 on the in-
strument panel comes on and the corresponding mes-
sage will appear on the display (see “Warning lights and
messages”) for as long as the function remains on. The
warning light comes on when the lever is operated and
stays on until the function is automatically deactivated. Each
movement of the lever only increases the amount of time
the lights stay on.
Deactivation
Keep the lever pulled towards the steering wheel for more
than two seconds. DIRECTION INDICATORS fig. 46
Place the lever in the (stable) position:
❒up (position 1): activation of right direction indicator;
❒down (position 2): activation of left direction indicator.
The
¥or Îwarning lights will come on intermittently in
the instrument panel.
Direction indicators switch off automatically when the ve-
hicle is back in a straight line.
If you want the indicator to flash briefly to show that you
are about to change lane, move the lever up or down with-
out it clicking into position. When released, the lever will
return to its default position.

Move the lever to position A-fig. 47 (temporary position)
to limit operation to the time for which the lever is held
in this position. When released, the lever will return to
its default position and the wiper will be automatically
stopped. With the twist switch at
≤, the windscreen wiper
will automatically adapt to the speed of the vehicle.
With the windscreen wipers working, the rear window
wiper is automatically activated when reverse gear is en-
gaged.
WINDOW CLEANING
The right lever fig. 47 controls windscreen wiper/washer
and heated rear window wiper/washer operation (for ver-
sions/markets where provided).
WINDSCREEN WIPER/WASHER
This operates only with the ignition key turned to MAR.
The right lever can assume four different positions:
Owindscreen wiper off.
≤intermittent operation.
≥continuous slow operation.
¥continuous fast operation.
Do not use the windscreen wipers to re-
move layers of snow or ice from the wind-
screen. In such conditions, the windscreen
wipers may be subjected to excessive stress and the
motor protection which prevents operation for
a few seconds may trip. If the issue persists, contact
the Fiat Service Network.
“Smart washing” function
Pull the lever towards the steering wheel (temporary po-
sition) to operate the screen washer jet. Keeping the lever
pulled for more than half a second, with just one move-
ment it is possible to operate the washer jet and the wiper
at the same time. The wiper stops working three strokes
after releasing the lever.
A further stroke after approximately six seconds com-
pletes the wiping cycle.

FRONT AIRBAGS
The vehicle is fitted with front airbags for the driver and,
for versions/markets where provided, front airbags for the
passenger.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front driver/passenger airbags (for versions/markets
where provided) have been designed to protect the front-
seat occupants in the event of head-on crashes of medi-
um-high severity, by placing the bag between the occupant
and the steering wheel or dashboard.
Non-activation in other types of crash (side-on collisions,
rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) is therefore not a sign of sys-
tem malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the bag to inflate, if nec-
essary, in the event of a head-on crash.
The bag will inflate instantaneously, placing itself between
the front occupant’s body and the structures which could
cause injury. It will deflate immediately afterwards.
Front driver/passenger airbags (for versions/markets
where provided) are not a replacement for, but rather
a complement to, the seat belts, which should be worn
at all times as specified by law in Europe and most non-Eu-
ropean countries.
In the event of an impact, someone not wearing a seat belt
could move forward and come into contact with a bag
which is still in the opening phase. The protection offered
by the bag is reduced in such a case. The front airbags may not be activated in the following
situations:❒head-on impacts against highly deformable objects that
do not affect the vehicle’s front surface (e.g. front wing
hitting the guard rail);
❒car getting wedged under other vehicles or protective
barriers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they could not provide any additional protection compared
with seat belts, so their activation would not be worth-
while. In these cases, non-deployment of the airbag does
not necessarily indicate a system malfunction.
Do not apply stickers or other objects to
the steering wheel, the dashboard in the
passenger side airbag area and the seats. Do not
place objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the passen-
ger side dashboard because these could interfere
with the correct opening of the airbag and cause
severe injury to occupants.
WARNING
The front driver and passenger airbags are designed and
calibrated to best protect front-seat passengers wearing
seat belts.
The volume of the front airbags at maximum inflation fills
most of the space between the steering wheel and the dri-
ver and between the dashboard and the passenger.
