CRUISE CONTROL
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Cruise Control is an electronic device to
assist driving, which makes it possible to
maintain the vehicle at the desired speed
without the need to press the accelerator.
The device must only be used in particu-
lar safety conditions, at a speed above 40
km/h (25 mph), on long stretches of strai-
ght, dry road with little change in speed
(e.g. motorways). Therefore it is not re-
commended to use this device on extra-
urban roads with traffic. Do not use it in
cities.
CONTROLS
1.MAIN button (ON: device enabled;
OFF: device disabled)
2.RES/ACC button (call up stored speed,
increase set speed)
3.SET/COAST button (store speed, de-
crease set speed)
4.CANCEL button (switch off device)
5.CRUISE warning light (device enabled)
6.SET warning light (device working)ENABLING OF THE DEVICE
To enable the device and prepare it for
operation, press the “MAIN” button (1).
The “CRUISE” warning light on the in-
strument panel comes on to signal that the
device has been enabled. The warning li-
ght remains on until the device is disabled.
NOTE
❒ In models with a manual gearbox, it is
recommended to use the device only at
high gears (4th, 5th of 6th).
❒ When travelling downhill with the de-
vice engaged, the vehicle speed may sli-
ghtly exceed the stored one.STORAGE OF VEHICLE SPEED
In order to store a speed and activate
Cruise Control, follow these steps.
❒ Enable the device and press the
“MAIN” button (1).
❒ Press the accelerator, bringing the vehi-
cle up to the desired speed.
❒ Press the “SET/COAST” button (3):
vehicle speed is stored and so it is pos-
sible to release the accelerator.
NOTE If required (e.g. during overtaking),
it's possible to momentarily increase the
speed of the vehicle by pushing the acce-
lerator. The vehicle will return to the pre-
viously set speed when the pedal is relea-
sed.
RESETTING STORED SPEED
If the device is disengaged for one of the
following reasons:
❒ pressing the brake pedal;
❒ pressing the clutch (on vehicles with
manual gearbox);
❒ pressing the “CANCEL” button (4);
057-070 SEDICI LUM FL GB 1E 19-06-2009 10:32 Pagina 69
70
❒ following ESP®system intervention (for
versions/markets, where provided),
to reset the stored speed, follow these
steps.
❒ Accelerate gently, bringing the vehicle
close to the stored speed.
❒ Engage the gear selected at the time the
previous speed was stored.
❒ Press the “RES/ACC” button (2).
INCREASE IN STORED SPEED
When Cruise Control is operating, there
are two ways to increase the stored
speed:
❒ by pressing the accelerator and then
storing the new speed reached,
or
❒ by pressing the “RES/ACC” button (2).
Each time the button is pressed, this
corresponds to a constant increase in
speed, while holding the button down
increases the speed in a continuous
manner.REDUCTION OF STORED
SPEED
When Cruise Control is operating, there
are two ways to reduce the stored speed:
❒ by disengaging the device and then sto-
ring the new speed,
or
❒ by pressing the “SET/COAST” button
(3). Each time the button is pressed, this
corresponds to a constant decrease in
speed, while holding the button down
decreases the speed in a continuous
manner.
DISENGAGING OF THE DEVICE
The device is disengaged in one of the fol-
lowing cases:
❒ pressing the “CANCEL” button (4);
❒ pressing the brake pedal;
❒ pressing the clutch (on vehicles with
manual gearbox);
❒ switching off the engine (starter swit-
ch set to “OFF”);
❒ by disabling the system (“MAIN” but-
ton (1) set to “OFF”);
❒ when the vehicle speed is reduced by
approximately 20% compared with the
set speed;❒ when the vehicle speed is below 36
km/h (22 mph);
❒ in the event of ESP
®system interven-
tion (where provided);
❒ in the event of system breakdown.
NOTE By pressing the accelerator, the sy-
stem is not actually disengaged, but the re-
quired acceleration takes precedence over
maintaining the stored speed: Cruise Con-
trol, however, remains enabled and will
return to the previous condition once the
accelerator has been released, without ha-
ving to press the “RES/ACC” button (2).
IMPORTANT When travelling with the
device on, never set the gearshift lever to
neutral.
IMPORTANT In the event of malfunction
or failure, disable the device (“MAIN” but-
ton (1) set to “OFF”) and see your Fiat
Dealership.

This light blinks or comes on for several
seconds when the ignition switch is turned
to the “ON” position so you can check if
the light is working.
The light will come on and stay on if there
is a problem in the air bag system or the
seat belt pretensioner system (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided). CHARGING LIGHT
50G052A
This light comes on when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position, and
goes out when the engine is started. The
light will come on and remain on if there
is something wrong with the battery charg-
ing system. If the light comes on when the
engine is running, the charging system

WARNING
If this light comes on when the engine is
running, you should change the engine oil
and oil filter immediately since the moni-
toring system has calculated that oil life
has been diminished by detecting a dete-
rioration, increase or decrease of engine
oil.
When the engine oil and oil filter are
changed, and the oil life monitoring sys-
tem is reset, this light will go out. For de-
tails on how to change the engine oil, re-
fer to “Changing Engine Oil and Filter” in
“INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE”
section. Whenever the engine oil is
changed, the light must be reset to mon-
itor the next oil change timing properly.

not blink or come on briefly
when the ignition switch is turned to
the “ON” position, stays on for more
than 10 seconds, or comes on while
driving, the air bag system or the seat
belt pretensioner system (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided) may
not work properly. Have both systems
inspected by an authorized Fiat Deal-
ership.
