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.

❒downhill: vehicle stationary on a road with a gradient
higher than 5%, engine running, clutch and brake
pedal pressed and reverse gear engaged.
At pickup the
ESPsystem control unit will maintain the
braking pressure at the wheels until the necessary torque
for starting is reached or, in any case, for a maximum of
2 seconds in order to move easily from the brake pedal
to the accelerator pedal. When two seconds have
elapsed, without starting, the system is automatically
deactivated, gradually releasing the braking pressure.
During this release stage, the typical brake
disengagement noise indicating that the vehicle is going
to move imminently will be heard.
Failure warning
The
áwarning light in the instrument panel will come
on in the event of a failure (see “Warning lights and
messages” section).
IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is not a parking
brake; therefore, never leave the vehicle without having
engaged the handbrake, turned the engine off and
engaged first gear. FAILURE WARNING
In the event of a failure, the ESP will be automatically
switched off and the áwarning light will come on
constantly in the instrument panel along with a message
in the multifunction display (for versions/markets where
provided) (see “Warning lights and messages” section).
The LED in the ASR OFF button will light up. Contact
a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible if this happens.
Do not take unnecessary risks, even if
your vehicle is fitted with an ESP system.
Your driving style must always be suited to the
road conditions, visibility and traffic. The driver
is ultimately responsible for road safety.
WARNING
HILL HOLDER SYSTEM
This system is an integral part of the
ESPsystem and it is
provided to facilitate starting on hills.
It is automatically activated in the following conditions:
❒uphill: vehicle stationary on a road with a gradient
higher than 5%, engine running, clutch and brake
pedal pressed, gearbox in neutral or gear other than
reverse engaged;
For the correct operation of the ESP and
ASR systems, the tyres must absolutely be
the same make and type on all wheels, in perfect
condition and, above all, of the type, make and
size specified.

USING THE MANUAL GEARBOX
To engage the gears, depress the clutch pedal fully and
shift the gear lever into the required positions (the
diagram is shown on the gear knob fig. 160).
To engage 6
thgear (where provided), operate the lever
by pressing it towards the right in order to avoid
engaging 4
thgear by mistake. The same applies to the
shift from 6thto 5thgear.
IMPORTANT Reverse may only be engaged when the
vehicle is at a standstill. With the engine running, wait
for at least 2 seconds with the clutch pedal fully pressed
before engaging reverse to prevent damage to the gears
and grating.
To engage reverse R from neutral, proceed as follows:
raise ring A under the knob and at the same time move
the gear lever to the right and then backwards.
Press the clutch pedal fully to change
gears correctly. For this reason, there
must be no obstacles on the floor under the
pedals: ensure that rubber mats (if any) are
lying flat and do not interfere with the pedals.
WARNING
Do not drive with your hand resting on
the gear lever, because this pressure, even
if light, over time can wear out the
internal gearbox components.

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
GENERAL WARNINGS
The turning on of the warning light is accompanied by
a specific message and/or buzzer sound where provided
by instrument panel. These indications are brief and
precautionary and as such must not be considered as
exhaustive and/or an alternative to the information
contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are
recommended to read carefully in all cases. Always refer
to the information in this chapter in the event of
a failure indication.
IMPORTANT Failure indications displayed are divided
into two categories: very serious and less serious
failures.
Very serious failures prompt a prolonged cycle of
signals.
Less serious failures prompt a shorter cycle of signals.
Press MODE to stop the warning cycle in both cases.
The instrument panel warning light will stay on until the
cause of the failure is eliminated.
For messages relevant to the versions equipped with
Dualogic gearbox, see the attached Supplement.
WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
If the warning light xturns on when
travelling (on certain versions together
with the message on the display) stop the car
immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
LOW BRAKE FLUID LEVEL (red)
HANDBRAKE ENGAGED (red)
When the key is turned to the MAR-ON
position the warning light comes on but should
go out after a few seconds.
Low brake fluid level
The warning light comes on when the level of the brake
fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level due
to a possible leak in the circuit.
On some versions the display shows the dedicated
message.
x
Handbrake engaged
The warning light turns on when the handbrake is
engaged.
On certain versions, if the vehicle is moving the buzzer
will also sound.
IMPORTANT If the warning light turns on when
travelling, check that the handbrake is not engaged.
