Service (Programmed maintenance)
Through this function it is possible to display information
related to regular maintenance intervals.
This information can be consulted as follows:
– press SET ESC: the service intervals appear in the dis-
play in km or mi, depending on the previous setting (see
“Unit of distance” paragraph);
– press the SET ESC button to return to the menu screen
or hold the button down to return to the standard screen.
N.B. The „Scheduled Servicing Plan” provides for the ve-
hicle to be serviced every 30,000 km/35,000 km (depending
on the version) (or the equivalent in miles). This is auto-
matically displayed, when the ignition key is at MAR, from
2,000 km (or the equivalent in miles) and reappears every
200 km (or the equivalent in miles). Below 200 km the
reminders become more frequent. The indication will ap-
pear in kilometres or miles depending on the measure-
ment unit settings. When the next scheduled service is ap-
proaching, the message „Service” will appear on the dis-
play, followed by the number of kilometres or miles left,
when the key is turned to MAR. Go to the Fiat Service
Network, where the „Planned Maintenance Programme”
operations will be performed and the message will be re-
set. Button volume (Adjusting the button volume)
This function allows you to adjust (over 8 levels) the vol-
ume of the buzzer that can be heard when the SET ESC,
▲and ▼buttons are pressed.
To set the desired volume, proceed as follows:
– press SET ESC: the previously set volume level flashes in
the display;
– press ▲or ▼to adjust the value;
– press the SET ESC button to go back to the menu screen
or hold the button down to go back to the standard screen
without saving.
Seat belt buzzer

Move the lever to position A-fig. 47 (temporary position)
to limit operation to the time for which the lever is held
in this position. When released, the lever will return to
its default position and the wiper will be automatically
stopped. With the twist switch at
≤, the windscreen wiper
will automatically adapt to the speed of the vehicle.
With the windscreen wipers working, the rear window
wiper is automatically activated when reverse gear is en-
gaged.
WINDOW CLEANING
The right lever fig. 47 controls windscreen wiper/washer
and heated rear window wiper/washer operation (for ver-
sions/markets where provided).
WINDSCREEN WIPER/WASHER
This operates only with the ignition key turned to MAR.
The right lever can assume four different positions:
Owindscreen wiper off.
≤intermittent operation.
≥continuous slow operation.
¥continuous fast operation.
Do not use the windscreen wipers to re-
move layers of snow or ice from the wind-
screen. In such conditions, the windscreen
wipers may be subjected to excessive stress and the
motor protection which prevents operation for
a few seconds may trip. If the issue persists, contact
the Fiat Service Network.
“Smart washing” function
Pull the lever towards the steering wheel (temporary po-
sition) to operate the screen washer jet. Keeping the lever
pulled for more than half a second, with just one move-
ment it is possible to operate the washer jet and the wiper
at the same time. The wiper stops working three strokes
after releasing the lever.
A further stroke after approximately six seconds com-
pletes the wiping cycle.

tivate the rear window wiper. Releasing the lever will ac-
tivate the smart washing function, as described for the
windscreen wiper.
Deactivation
The function stops when the lever is released.
Do not use the rear window wiper to re-
move layers of snow or ice. In such condi-
tions, the wiper may be subjected to ex-
cessive stress and the motor protection, which pre-
vents operation for a few seconds, may intervene.
If the issue persists, contact the Fiat Service Net-
work.

HEADLIGHTS
LIGHT BEAM DIRECTION
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 conditions when travelling with
the headlights on the headlight alignment must be correct.
Contact the Fiat Service Network to have the direction
checked and, if necessary, adjusted.
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition key in the MAR posi-
tion and the dipped headlamps on.
The vehicle tilts backwards when it is laden, raising the light
beam. The direction of the beam must therefore be ad-
justed in this case.
After having travelled several kilometres,
check that the attachment retaining bolts
are still securely fastened.
WARNING
Never exceed the maximum permitted load
(see “Technical specifications”).

ABS SYSTEM
(for versions/markets where provided)
This is an integral part of the braking system, which pre-
vents one or more wheels from locking or slipping re-
gardless of the road surface conditions and braking action,
giving the best control during emergency braking.
The EBD system (Electronic Braking Force Distribution)
completes the system, allowing the braking action to be
distributed between the front and rear wheels.
WARNING For maximum efficiency of the braking sys-
tem, a bedding-in period of about 500 km is needed: dur-
ing this period it is better to avoid sharp, repeated and pro-
longed braking.
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 al-
tered to suit the type of road surface. Headlamp alignment adjustment
To adjust, press buttons Òandfig. 100 on the control
panel.
The display located on the instrument panel provides the
visual indication of the positions during the adjustment op-
eration.
Position 0 – one or two people in the front seats.
Position 1 – five people.
Position 2 – five people + load in the boot.
Position 3 – driver + maximum permitted load stowed in
the luggage compartment.
WARNING Check the light beam alignment every time
the load transported changes.
FOG LIGHT DIRECTION
(for versions/markets where provided)
Contact the Fiat Service Network to have the direction
checked and, if necessary, adjusted.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
The dipped headlamps are adjusted to work in the coun-
try where the vehicle was originally purchased. When in
countries where you drive on the other side of the road,
you need to alter the light beam direction by affixing a spe-
cially designed self-adhesive film in order not to dazzle the
vehicles travelling in the opposite direction. This film is
provided by Lineaccessori Fiat and is available at Fiat Ser-
vice Network.
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, depend-
ing on the road conditions.

EBD failure
EBD failure is indicated by warning lights
>andxin the
instrument panel coming on (together with the appropri-
ate message on the multifunction display on some versions)
(see “Warning lights and messages”).
In this case, the rear wheels may suddenly lock and the ve-
hicle may swerve when braking sharply. Drive carefully
to the nearest Fiat Service Network to have the system
checked.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
ABS failure
ABS failure is indicated by warning light
>in the instru-
ment panel coming on (together with the appropriate mes-
sage on the multifunction display on some versions) (see
“Warning lights and messages”).
In the case, the braking system will work as normal with-
out the extra capacity offered by the ABS system. Drive
carefully to the nearest Fiat Service Network to have the
system checked.
If the ABS intervenes, it means you have
almost reached the grip limit between the
tyres and the road surface: slow down to make
sure you can use the available grip.
WARNING
The ABS gets the most out of the available
grip, but it cannot increase it; you must
therefore always take care when driving on slip-
pery roads. Do not take any unnecessary risks.
WARNING
If only warning light xlights up in the in-
strument panel (with a message in the
multifunction display on some versions), stop the
vehicle immediately and contact the nearest Fiat
Service Network. Fluid leaking from the hydraulic
system will compromise the operation of the brak-
ing system, whether it is of the conventional type
or with ABS.
