The fluid circulation pump continues to work for
around two minutes to dissipate as much heat as
possible from the heater; the heater can be turned back
on during this stage.
The heater burns fuel in the same way
as the engine, though to a lesser extent.
To prevent poisoning and asphyxiation, the
supplementary heater must never be turned on,
even for short periods, in closed environments
such as a garage or workshops without
extraction fans for the exhaust gases.
WARNING
IMPORTANT When parked the heater switches off
when the battery voltage is low to allow the engine to
be started up.

Each time the lever is operated the lights will stay on
another 30 seconds, up to a maximum of 210 seconds;
when this time has elapsed, the lights will go out
automatically.
The warning light 3on the instrument panel will light
up and the corresponding message will appear in the
display (see “Warning lights and messages”) for as long
as the function is activated. 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 2 seconds.
AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT SENSOR
(dusk sensor)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
It detects variations in brightness outside the vehicle
depending on the light sensitivity setting: the greater the
sensitivity, the less outside light needed to activate the
exterior lights being turned on. The sensitivity of the
dusk sensor is adjusted by means of the “Setup menu”
for the display. Lane change function

INCREASING THE MEMORISED SPEED
This can be done in two ways:
❒by pressing the accelerator and then memorising the
new speed reached;
or
❒by moving the lever upwards (+).
Each operation of the lever will correspond to a slight
increase in speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping the
lever upwards will correspond to a continuous speed
increase.
REDUCING THE MEMORISED SPEED
This can be done in two ways:
❒by turning the device off and then storing a new
speed;
or
❒by moving the stalk downwards (–) until reaching the
new speed which will be memorised automatically.
Each movement of the lever will correspond to a slight
reduction in speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping the
lever held downwards will correspond to a continuous
speed reduction.SWITCHING THE DEVICE OFF
The device can be switched off by the driver in the
following ways:
❒turning the ring nut A to the OFFposition;
❒turning the engine off;
❒pressing the brake pedal or operating the handbrake;
❒pressing the clutch pedal;
❒requesting a gear change with an automatic gearbox
in sequential mode;
❒with vehicle speed below the set limit;
❒by pressing the accelerator pedal; in this case the
system is not really switched off but the request for
acceleration takes priority over the system. The
cruise control is, however, active and it will not be
necessary to press the RES button to restore the
previous conditions after the acceleration is over.
The device is automatically switched off in the following
cases:
❒if the ABSor ESPsystems cut in;
❒if there is a system failure.

TACHOGRAPH
For tachograph operation and use, consult the owner
handbook supplied by the device manufacturer.
The tachograph must be installed on the vehicle when
the vehicle weight (with or without trailer) exceeds
3.5 tons.
IMPORTANT Anyone making changes to the
monitoring device or signal transmission system that
affects recording by the monitoring instrument,
particularly if this is done for purposes of fraud, may be
in breach of criminal or administrative state regulations.
IMPORTANT If a tachograph is fitted, if the vehicle is
parked for more than 5 days, it is advisable to
disconnect the negative battery terminal to maintain its
charge.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Do not use abrasive detergents or solvents to clean the
device. To clean the outside of the device, use a damp
cloth or special products for the care of synthetic
materials.The tachograph is installed and sealed by authorised
personnel: do not try and access the device or the
supply and recording leads in any way. It is the
responsibility of the owner of the vehicle on which the
tachograph is installed to check the device regularly.
The check must be carried out at least every two years
and a test must be carried out to ensure that it is
working properly. Ensure that the data label is renewed
after every check that that the label contains the
specified data.

HEADLIGHTS
HEADLIGHT BEAM AIMING
The correct direction of the headlights is essential for
the comfort and safety of the driver and other road
users. To ensure the best visibility when travelling with
the headlights on, the headlight alignment must be
correct. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the
headlights properly adjusted.
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition key in the MAR-ON
position and the dipped headlights on. The vehicle tilts
backwards when it is laden, raising the beam. The beams
must therefore be aimed again in this case. IMPORTANT Follow the instructions contained in the
assembly kit carefully. Assembly must be performed by
qualified personnel.
Respect the regulations in force
concerning maximum clearance.
Distribute the load evenly and when
driving, bear in mind the increased
sensitivity of the vehicle to side wind.
WARNING
Never exceed the permitted weight (see
“Technical data” section).

ABS SYSTEM
If you have never driven a vehicle with ABS before, it is
advisable to perform a few tests on slippery ground,
always in safe conditions and respecting the highway
code of the country where you are driving. Read the
following information carefully.
This is an integral part of the braking system, which
prevents one or more wheels from locking or slipping
regardless of the road surface conditions and braking
intensity, ensuring control of the vehicle even during
emergency braking.
The system is completed by EBD (Electronic Braking
Force Distribution), which distributes the braking action
between the front and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT For the maximum efficiency of the
braking system, a bedding in period of about 500 km is
needed (with the vehicle new or after having replaced
the brake pads/discs): during this period it is better to
avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged braking. Headlight alignment adjustment fig. 134
Press buttons Òand in the control panel to adjust.
The display located on the instrument panel provides
a visual indication of the adjusted position.
IMPORTANT Check the beam alignment every time the
weight of the load transported changes.
FRONT FOG LIGHTS ALIGNMENT
(for versions/markets where provided)
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the headlights
properly adjusted.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
The dipped headlights are adjusted to work in the
country where the vehicle was originally purchased.
In countries where vehicles are driven on the other side
of the road, the beams are aligned by applying a specially
designed adhesive film in order not to dazzle the
vehicles travelling in the opposite direction.
The ABS system gets the most out of the
available grip but it cannot improve it.
Therefore, you should take great care when
driving on slippery surfaces: don’t take
unnecessary risks.
