❒engage the gear selected at the time that the
speed was memorised (4th, 5th or 6th gear);
❒press button C fig. 56.
INCREASING THE STORED SPEED
This can be done in two ways:
❒by pressing the accelerator and memorising the
new speed reached;
or
❒by temporarily turning ring nut B fig. 56 to (+).
Each movement of the ring nut will correspond to a
slight increase in speed (about 1 km/h), while
keeping the ring nut turned will correspond to a
continuous speed increase.
REDUCING THE STORED SPEED
This can be done in two ways:
❒by switching off the device and then memorising
the new speed;
or
❒by keeping ring nut B fig. 56 turned to (–) until
the new speed is reached; it will then be
memorised automatically.
Each movement of the ring nut will correspond to a
slight reduction in speed (about 1 km/h), while
keeping the ring nut turned will correspond to a
continuous reduction in speed.TURNING THE DEVICE OFF
Turn the ring nut A fig. 56 to OFF or turn the
ignition key to STOP. The device is automatically
turned off in one of the following cases:
❒when the brake or clutch pedal is pressed;
❒if the ASR or ESP system cuts in (for versions/
markets, where provided);
❒if the gear is shifted in versions with Dualogic
gearbox (for versions/markets, where provided)
in Manual mode;
❒if the Dualogic gearbox lever (where provided) is
inadvertently shifted to N or R.
WARNING
Whilst driving with the device on, never
place the gear lever in neutral and do
not move the Dualogic gearbox lever into
position N or R.
WARNING
If the device is faulty, turn ring nut A
fig. 56 to OFF, check the condition
of the protective fuse and contact a Fiat
Dealership.

WARNING
Before starting any servicing operation,
stop the engine and remove the key
from the ignition switch to operate the
steering lock, particularly when the wheels do
not touch the ground. If this is not possible
(for example if the key needs to be turned to
MAR-ON or the engine must be running),
remove the main fuse that protects the
electric power steering.
TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM TPMS(Tyre Pressure Monitoring System)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The car may be fitted with a tyre pressure
monitoring system (TPMS), which informs the
driver of the tyre inflation status via the "Check
tyre pressure" and "Low tyre pressure" messages
on the display. For a detailed description of the two
messages, see "Warning lights and messages"
chapter. This system comprises a radio frequency
transmitter fitted to each wheel (on the wheel rim
inside the tyre), which is able to send information
on the tyre inflation pressure of each wheel to
the control unit.
WARNING
The presence of TPMS does not
exonerate the driver from regularly
checking the pressure of the tyres and the
spare wheel (see "Wheels" in the
"Maintenance and care" chapter).
WARNING
Sensor malfunctioning fault indications are not
stored and will therefore not be displayed after the
engine has been switched off and then on again. If
the fault conditions persist, the control unit will

warning light will turn on (together with the
message on the display) (see “Tyre pressure low” in
this chapter) and it will stay on until the car slows
down to a speed below the preset threshold.
IMPORTANT In this case slow down immediately
since tyre overheating could impair tyre
performance and life beyond repair, and even make
the tyre to blow-out.
WARNING
Particularly strong radio frequency
interference may cause the TPMS to
function incorrectly.This condition is indicated
to the driver by a message (for versions/
markets where provided).The message will
disappear automatically as soon as the
interference ceases to affect the system.EXTERNAL LIGHT FAILURE

The failure relating to these lights could be: one or
more blown bulbs, a blown protection fuse or a
break in the electrical connection.
The display will show the dedicated message.
BRAKE LIGHT FAILURE (amber)
The symbol switches on in the display when a
failure is detected in the brake (stop) lights.
The failure relating to these lights could be: one or
more blown bulbs, a blown protection fuse or a
break in the electrical connection.
On certain versions warning light
