ABS SYSTEM
(for versions/markets where provided)
This is an integral part of the braking system, which pre-
vents one or more wheels from locking or slipping re-
gardless of the road surface conditions and braking action,
giving the best control during emergency braking.
The EBD system (Electronic Braking Force Distribution)
completes the system, allowing the braking action to be
distributed between the front and rear wheels.
WARNING For maximum efficiency of the braking sys-
tem, a bedding-in period of about 500 km is needed: dur-
ing this period it is better to avoid sharp, repeated and pro-
longed braking.
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can tell the ABS system has come into action
because the brake pedal pulsates slightly and the system
gets noisier: it means that the vehicle speed should be al-
tered to suit the type of road surface. Headlamp alignment adjustment
To adjust, press buttons Òandfig. 100 on the control
panel.
The display located on the instrument panel provides the
visual indication of the positions during the adjustment op-
eration.
Position 0 – one or two people in the front seats.
Position 1 – five people.
Position 2 – five people + load in the boot.
Position 3 – driver + maximum permitted load stowed in
the luggage compartment.
WARNING Check the light beam alignment every time
the load transported changes.
FOG LIGHT DIRECTION
(for versions/markets where provided)
Contact the Fiat Service Network to have the direction
checked and, if necessary, adjusted.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
The dipped headlamps are adjusted to work in the coun-
try where the vehicle was originally purchased. When in
countries where you drive on the other side of the road,
you need to alter the light beam direction by affixing a spe-
cially designed self-adhesive film in order not to dazzle the
vehicles travelling in the opposite direction. This film is
provided by Lineaccessori Fiat and is available at Fiat Ser-
vice Network.
When the ABS intervenes and you notice
the brake pedal pulsating, do not be afraid
to keep the pedal pushed down. This will help you
to stop in the shortest distance possible, depend-
ing on the road conditions.

EBD failure
EBD failure is indicated by warning lights
>andxin the
instrument panel coming on (together with the appropri-
ate message on the multifunction display on some versions)
(see “Warning lights and messages”).
In this case, the rear wheels may suddenly lock and the ve-
hicle may swerve when braking sharply. Drive carefully
to the nearest Fiat Service Network to have the system
checked.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
ABS failure
ABS failure is indicated by warning light
>in the instru-
ment panel coming on (together with the appropriate mes-
sage on the multifunction display on some versions) (see
“Warning lights and messages”).
In the case, the braking system will work as normal with-
out the extra capacity offered by the ABS system. Drive
carefully to the nearest Fiat Service Network to have the
system checked.
If the ABS intervenes, it means you have
almost reached the grip limit between the
tyres and the road surface: slow down to make
sure you can use the available grip.
WARNING
The ABS gets the most out of the available
grip, but it cannot increase it; you must
therefore always take care when driving on slip-
pery roads. Do not take any unnecessary risks.
WARNING
If only warning light xlights up in the in-
strument panel (with a message in the
multifunction display on some versions), stop the
vehicle immediately and contact the nearest Fiat
Service Network. Fluid leaking from the hydraulic
system will compromise the operation of the brak-
ing system, whether it is of the conventional type
or with ABS.

EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis) allows
continuous diagnosis of emission-related components on
the vehicle. It also alerts the driver, by turning on warn-
ing light Uin the instrument panel (together with the rel-
evant message in the display on some versions), when
these components are no longer in peak condition (see
“Warning lights and messages” section).
The goal of the system is to:
❒keep the system efficiency under control;
❒warn about increased emissions due to a vehicle mal-
function;
❒warn of the need to replace deteriorated components.
The system also has a diagnostic connector that can be in-
terfaced with appropriate equipment, which makes it pos-
sible to read the error codes memorized in the control
unit together with a series of specific parameters for en-
gine operation and diagnosis.
This check can also be carried out by traffic authorities.
WARNING After eliminating the problem, to check the
system completely, Fiat Service Network run a bench test
and, if necessary, road tests which may also call for a long
journey.
Go to the Fiat Service Network as soon
as possible if warning light
Udoes not
light up when the ignition key is turned to MAR
or if, while travelling, the warning light comes on
either permanently or flashing (along with a mes-
sage on the display on certain versions). The op-
eration of the
Uwarning light may be checked
by the traffic authorities using specific devices. Re-
spect the regulations in force in the country where
you are driving.
WARNING
SPEED BLOCK
(for versions/markets where provided)
The vehicle is equipped with a speed limitation function
that can be set at the user’s request to one of four pre-
defined values: 90, 100, 110, 130 km/h.
To activate/deactivate this function, contact the Fiat Ser-
vice Network.
Following the operation, a sticker will be applied to the
windscreen showing the top speed setting.
WARNING The speedometer could show a higher top
speed than the one set by the Dealership in accordance
with the regulations in force.
