MECHANISM fig. 128
Switches on the inner armrest of the driver’s door
control the following with the ignition key in the
MAR-ON position:

Continuous automatic operation
All versions are equipped with automatic raising and
lowering of the front, driver’s side window.
Keep one of the buttons pressed for longer than half
a second to operate the automatic continuous window
operation function. The window stops when it reaches
the end of travel position or when the button is pressed

wind may release the springs and close the
doors spontaneously.
WARNING
With the doors opened to 180 degrees,
no locking system is effective. Do not
use this opening with the vehicle parked on
a gradient or when it is windy.

from the engine compartment, then let it drop. Make
sure that the bonnet is completely closed and not
fastened only by the safety catch. If it is not perfectly
closed, do not try to press the bonnet lid down but
open it and repeat the procedure.
IMPORTANT Always check that the bonnet is closed
properly to avoid it opening while the car is travelling.

FAILURE WARNING
ABS failure
ABS Failure is indicated by the
>warning light in the
instrument panel together with the dedicated message
in the multifunction display (for versions/markets where
provided) coming on (see “Warning lights and
messages” section).
In this case, the braking system will still be effective,
although without the extra capacity offered by the ABS
system. Drive carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to
have the system checked. 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
altered to suit the type of road surface.
If the ABS cuts in, it is a sign that the
grip between tyre and the road surface
has reached the limit: you must slow down to
match the speed to the road grip available.
WARNING
EBD failure
ABS Failure is indicated by the
>and xwarning lights
in the instrument panel together with the dedicated
message in the multifunction display (for versions/
markets where provided) coming on (see “Warning
lights and messages” section).
In this case, the rear wheels may suddenly lock and the
vehicle may swerve when braking sharply. Drive
carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have the
system checked.
If only the xwarning light in the
instrument panel lights up (together with
a message in the multifunction display, for
versions/markets where provided) stop the
vehicle immediately and contact the nearest Fiat
Dealership. Fluid leaking from the hydraulic
system will compromise the operation of the
braking system, whether it is of the conventional
type or with ABS.

ESP SYSTEM
(Electronic Stability Program)
(for versions/markets where provided)
This is an electronic system that controls vehicle
stability in the event of tyre grip loss, helping to maintain
directional control.
The ESP system is therefore particularly useful when
grip conditions of road surfaces change.
The MSR system (adjustment of the engine braking
torque during gear changes) and the HBA system
(automatic increase in the braking pressure during
emergency braking) are present with ESP, ASR and Hill
Holder systems (for versions/markets where provided).
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
This is signalled by the flashing of warning light
áin the
instrument panel, to inform the driver that the vehicle is
in critical stability and grip conditions.
SYSTEM ACTIVATION
The ESP system is automatically activated when the
vehicle is started and cannot be de-activated. BRAKE ASSIST (emergency braking assistance
integrated in ESP)
(for versions/markets where provided)
This system (which cannot be deactivated) recognises
emergency braking conditions according to the speed of
operation of the brake pedal and provides an additional
hydraulic braking pressure to support that provided by
the driver. This allows faster and more powerful
operation of the braking system.
The Brake Assist is deactivated on versions equipped
with ESP, in the event of an ESP system failure (indicated
by warning light
áswitching on together with the
message in the multifunction display, for
versions/markets where provided).
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, depending on the road conditions.
