IGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 3 different po-
sitions fig. 21:
❒STOP: engine off, key extractable,
steering locked. Some electric devices
(e.g. sound system, central door lock-
ing system, etc.) may work.
❒MAR: driving position. All electrical
devices work regularly.
❒AVV: engine starting (unstable posi-
tion).
The ignition switch is fitted with a safety
system that, in the event the engine is not
started, turns back the ignition key to
STOPbefore repeating the starting op-
eration.

pered with (e.g.: attempted
theft), have it checked over by a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.

the car is moving. The steer-
ing wheel would lock automatically
as soon as the steering wheel is
turned. This also applies to when the
car is towed.
WARNING
Always remove the key when
you leave your car to pre-
vent someone from accidentally op-
erating the controls. Remember to
engage the handbrake. Engage first
gear if the car is parked uphill or re-
verse if the car is parked downhill.

CRUISE CONTROL
(constant speed
regulator) (where
provided)
It is a device able to support the driver,
with electronic control, which allows dri-
ving at speed over 30 km/h on long and
straight dry roads (e.g.: motorways), at a
desired speed, without pressing the ac-
celerator pedal. Therefore it is not sug-
gested to use this device on extra-urban
roads with traffic. Do not use it in town.
TURING THE DEVICE ON
Turn the ring A-fig. 75to ON.
The device can be turned on in 4th or 5th
gear only. Travelling downhill with the de-
vice engaged, the car speed may increase
more than the memorised one.
When the device is activated the warn-
ing light
Üturns on together with the rel-
evant message on the instrument panel
(where provided).
fig. 75F0H0074m
STORING THE SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❒turn ring A-fig. 75to ONand press
the accelerator pedal to the required
speed;
❒push the lever upwards (+) for at
least 1 second, then release it: the
car speed will be stored. The accel-
erator pedal may be released.
If needed (e.g. for overtaking), press the
accelerator pedal to accelerate: the car
will return to the previously set speed
when the pedal is released.RESTORING MEMORIZED
SPEED
If the device has been disengaged, for ex-
ample by pressing the brake or clutch ped-
al, the memorized speed can be reset as
follows:
❒accelerate gradually until reaching a
speed approaching the stored speed;
❒engage the gear selected when the
speed was stored (4th or 5th gear);
❒press button RES B-fig. 75.
INCREASING THE MEMORIZED
SPEED
The stored speed can be increased in two
ways:
❒by pressing the accelerator and then
storing the new speed reached;
or
❒ by moving the stalk upwards (+).
Each operation of the stalk will correspond
to a slight increase in speed (about 1 km/h),
while keeping the stalk upwards will cor-
respond to a continuous speed increase.
When travelling with the de-
vice on, never set the
gearshift lever to neutral.

memorised automatically.
Each movement of the lever will corre-
spond to a slight reduction in speed (about
1 km/h), while keeping the lever held
downwards will correspond to a continu-
ous speed reduction.
