Deactivation
Turn the ignition key to STOP.
The next time the vehicle is started (ignition key turned
to MAR), the sensor is not reactivated even if the lever is
still in position B-fig. 29. To activate the sensor, move the
lever to position A or C and then back to position B.
Rain sensor activation will be indicated by at least one
wiper “stroke” even if the windscreen is dry.CRUISE CONTROL
(constant speed regulator)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronically controlled driving assistance de-
vice which allows the vehicle to be driven at a chosen
speed above 30 km/h on long stretches of dry, straight
roads with few variations (e.g. motorways), without hav-
ing to depress the accelerator pedal.
It is therefore not recommended to use this device on
country roads with traffic. Do not use it in town.
TURNING THE DEVICE ON
Turn the ring nut A-fig. 31 to ON.
The device must only be switched on in gears higher than
4t
h.
Do not activate the rain sensor when wash-
ing the car in an automatic car wash.
Make sure the device is switched off if there
is ice on the windscreen.
Make sure the device is switched off when-
ever the windscreen is being cleaned.

On the roof light, some bulbs light the car interior when
the main beam headlamps or dipped headlamps are on.
IMPORTANT The roof light in fig. 32, for some versions,
may also be in a rear central position (electric sun roof
version).
IMPORTANT Before getting out of the car, make sure
that both switches are in the middle position; when the
doors are closed, the lights switch off preventing a pos-
sible battery discharging. In any case, if the switch is left
in on position, the roof light switches off automatically
15 minutes after the engine switching off.
Courtesy light timing
To make getting in and out the vehicle easier, especially
at nighttime or in poorly lit areas, two timing logics are
available.
Timing while getting into the vehicle
The roof lights switch on according to the following
modes:
❍for around 10 seconds when the front doors are un-
locked;
❍for about 3 minutes when one of the side doors is
opened;
❍for about 10 seconds when the doors are closed.
The timed period is interrupted when the ignition is
turned to “MAR”.Timing while getting out of the vehicle
After removing the key from the ignition, the courtesy
lights switch on according to the following modes:
❍within 2 minutes of the engine being switched off for
a period of about 10 seconds;
❍when one of the side doors is opened for a period
of about 3 minutes;
❍when one of the doors is closed for a period of about
10 seconds;
❍if the fuel cut off switch operates, they remain on for
about 15 minutes, then they switch off automatically.
Door locking switches the lights off immediately (unless
the fuel cut off switch is operating).

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.

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.
