engine compartment, under the car or near the tank area.
Following a collision, turn the ignition key to STOP
to avoid draining the battery.To restore correct car operation, follow this procedure:
❍turn the ignition key to MAR;
❍activate the right hand indicator;
❍deactivate the right hand indicator;
❍activate the left hand indicator;

ASHTRAY

SUNROOF
(for versions/markets where available)
The large electric sun roof comprises two glass panels; the
front one is mobile and the rear one fixed. These are
equipped with two sun blinds (front and rear) that can be
moved manually. With the sun roof closed, the blinds can
be placed in any position. To open the blinds: grip han-
dle C-fig. 49, and move the blind to the required position
by following the direction of movement shown by the ar-
row. To close them, carry out the procedure in reverse. The
sun roof can be operated only with the ignition key turned
to MAR. The controls A-B fig. 49 on the front courtesy
light trim operate the roof opening/closing functions.
Opening
Press and hold down button B-fig. 49. The front glass
panel will move into the spoiler position; press button B
once again and hold down for more than half a second
to automatically move the sun roof to an intermediate po-
sition (“Comfort” position). If the opening control is
pressed again for more than half a second, the roof will
automatically continue until it reaches the end of travel
position; the roof glass can be stopped in an intermediate
position by operating the button again.
IMPORTANT During the sun roof opening operation, the
blind will follow the movement of the sun roof.

82KNOWING YOUR CAR
Closing
With the roof in the fully open position, press button
A-fig. 49 and, if the button is operated for more than half
a second, the front roof glass will automatically assume
the intermediate position (comfort position).
If the button is operated again for about half a second the
roof will assume the spoiler position. Lastly, if the clos-
ing button is pressed again, the roof will assume the fully
closed position.
fig. 49L0E0108m
Use the sunroof only at “spoiler” position if
cross roof racks are fitted. Never open the roof
in presence of snow or ice to prevent damage.
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
key from the ignition to avoid the risk of in-
jury to those still inside the car due to acci-
dental operation of the sunroof. Improper use of the
roof can be dangerous. Before operation, always
check that no-one is at risk of being injured by the
moving sunroof or by objects getting caught and
dragged by it.
Anti-pinch device
The sun roof has an anti-pinch safety system capable of
detecting the presence of an obstacle whilst the roof is
closing; when this happens, the system stops and the
movement of the glass is immediately reversed.IMPORTANT The blind will remain in the fully open po-
sition when closing the sun roof. If you would like to close
it, this must be done manually.

IMPORTANT If the battery is disconnected or the pro-
tection fuse blows, the luggage compartment opening/
closing mechanism must be initialised as follows:
❍shut all the doors;
❍press button
Áon the key or door lock/release but-
ton
≈in the dashboard;
❍press button
Ëon the key or door lock/release but-
ton
≈in the dashboard.
If the child lock was engaged and the previ-
ously described locking procedure carried
out, operating the internal handle will not
open the door but will only realign the door lock
knobs. To open the door, the outside handle must be
used. The door central locking/unlocking button is
not disabled by the engagement of the emergency
lock
≈.
POWER WINDOWS
These operate when the ignition key is turned to MAR and
for about 2 minutes after turning the key to STOP or re-
moving it.
The control buttons are located in the door panels (the
driver side door panel can be used to operate all the
windows).
An anti-pinch device is operated when the front windows
are lifted.

88KNOWING YOUR CAR
Press the buttons to open/close the required window.
When one of the two buttons is pressed briefly, the win-
dow moves in stages; if the button is held down, “con-
tinuous automatic” operation is activated both for clos-
ing and opening. If the button is pressed again the
window will stop in its current position. Holding the but-
ton pressed for a few seconds will automatically raise or
lower the window (only with key on MAR).
Incorrect use of the power windows may be
dangerous. Before and during operation en-
sure that passengers are not at risk from the
moving glass, either directly or through personal
objects getting caught in the mechanism.
Always remove the ignition key when leav-
ing the car to prevent the electric windows
being operated accidentally and constituting
a danger to the passengers in the car.

Passenger side front door/rear doors
On the passenger side front door control panel, and on
some versions also on the rear doors, buttons F-fig. 54
are provided to control the associated windows.

Anti-crush safety device
The vehicle is equipped with an anti-pinch safety device
for the raising of the front windows.
This safety system detects the presence of an obstacle
during the window closing travel and cuts in by stopping
and reversing the window travel, depending on its posi-
tion. This device is also useful if the windows are acti-
vated accidentally by children on board the vehicle.
The anti-pinch function is active both during manual and
automatic operation of the electric windows. Following
the intervention of the anti-pinch system, the window
travel is immediately interrupted and subsequently re-
versed until the lower end of travel is reached. The win-
dow cannot be operated in any way during this time.IMPORTANT If the anti-pinch protection intervenes 5
consecutive times within a minute or is faulty, the auto-
matic closing operation of the window is inhibited, only
allowing it in steps of half a second; the button is released
for the subsequent manoeuvre.
In order to restore the correct operation of the system, one
of the following manoeuvres must be performed:
❍switch off and restart the engine;
❍fully lower the window concerned.
IMPORTANT With ignition key at STOP or removed, the
electric windows remain active for about 3 minutes and
are deactivated when a door is opened.

Electric window system initialisation
The system must be re-initialised after disconnecting the
battery or if the relevant protection fuse is blown.
Initialisation procedure:
❍fully close the window to be initialised manually;
❍once fully closed, keep holding down the closing con-
trol for at least 1 second.
IMPORTANT Where provided, after there has been no
power supply for the control units (battery replaced or
disconnected or protective fuses for the electric window
control units replaced), the automatic operation of the
windows must be restored.The restoration procedure must be performed as follows
with the doors closed:
1. completely open the driver’s door window keeping the
operating button pressed for at least three seconds af-
ter the (lower) end of travel position;
2. completely raise the driver’s side window and keep the
button pressed for at least three seconds once the end
of travel position (upper end stop) has been reached;
3. repeat stages 1 and 2 for the passenger-side window
4. make sure that the initialisation is correct by check-
ing that the windows work automatically.
IMPORTANT With central locking on, operating the in-
ternal handle of one of the doors will unlock all the doors.
If there is no electric power supply (fuse blown, battery
disconnected, etc.) it is still possible to operate the door
locking manually; in this case the automatic lowering
function for the windows is not available and to open or
close the door with the window closed it is necessary to
exert pressure on the window towards the inside of the
vehicle to facilitate the movement of the window on the
moulding.
