Lane change function
If you wish to signal a lane change, put the left lever in the
temporary position for less than half a second. The direc-
tion indicator on the side selected will flash five times and
then go out automatically.
“FOLLOW ME HOME” DEVICE
This device lights up the space in front of the vehicle for
a short time.
Activation
With the ignition key in the STOP position or extracted,
pull the lever towards the steering wheel and move it with-
in 2 minutes of the engine switching off.
Each time the lever is moved, the lights stay on for an ex-
tra 30 seconds up to a maximum of 210 seconds; then the
lights are switched off automatically.
Each time the lever is moved, warning light 3 on the in-
strument panel comes on and the corresponding mes-
sage will appear on the display (see “Warning lights and
messages”) for as long as the function remains on. The
warning light comes on when the lever is operated and
stays on until the function is automatically deactivated. Each
movement of the lever only increases the amount of time
the lights stay on.
Deactivation
Keep the lever pulled towards the steering wheel for more
than two seconds.
DIRECTION INDICATORS fig. 46
Place the lever in the (stable) position:
❒up (position 1): activation of right direction indicator;
❒down (position 2): activation of left direction indicator.
The
¥or Îwarning lights will come on intermittently in
the instrument panel.
Direction indicators switch off automatically when the ve-
hicle is back in a straight line.
If you want the indicator to flash briefly to show that you
are about to change lane, move the lever up or down with-
out it clicking into position. When released, the lever will
return to its default position.

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.

MSR system
(engine drive regulator)
This is an integral part of the ASR system that, in the event
of a sudden gear down shift, cuts in and provides torque
to the engine thus preventing excessive drive wheel dri-
ve which, especially in poor grip conditions, can lead to
a loss of stability.
Engagement/disengagement of the ASR system
The ASR system switches on automatically each time the
engine is started.
When travelling, the ASR can be switched off and on again
by pressing switch fig. 101, which can be found between
the front seats to the side of the handbrake lever.
When the ASR is switched off, this is shown by the LED
on the switch coming on and by the relevant message ap-
pearing on the multifunction display, where provided.
ASR SYSTEM (Anti-slip Regulator)
This is a traction control system that cuts in automatical-
ly every time one or both drive wheels slip.
Depending on the slipping conditions, two different con-
trol systems are activated:
❒if both drive wheels are slipping, the ASR function in-
tervenes by reducing the power transmitted by the en-
gine;
❒if the slipping only involves only one drive wheel, the
ASR system cuts in by automatically braking the wheel
that is slipping.
The action of the ASR system is especially useful in the fol-
lowing conditions:
❒slipping of the inner wheel when cornering due to the
effect of dynamic load changes or excessive accelera-
tion;
❒too much power transmitted to the wheels also in re-
lation to the conditions of the road surface;
❒acceleration on slippery, snowy or icy surfaces;
❒in the case of loss of grip on a wet surface (aquaplan-
ing).
For the correct operation of the ESP and
ASR systems, the tyres must absolutely be
the same make and type on all wheels, in perfect
condition and, above all, of the type, make and
size specified.

SNOW TYRES
A Fiat Dealership will be happy to provide advice con-
cerning the most suitable type of tyre for the customer’s
requirements.
For the type, pressures and specifications of the snow tyre
to be used, follow carefully the instructions given in the
“Wheels” paragraph of the “Technical specifications” sec-
tion.
The winter performance of these tyres is considerably re-
duced when the tread thickness is less than 4 mm. If this
is the case, replace them.
Due to their specific features, the performance of snow
tyres is much lower than that of standard tyres in normal
conditions or on long motorway stretches. You should
therefore use them only in the conditions for which they
were designed.
IMPORTANT When using snow tyres with a maximum
speed index below the one that can be reached by the
vehicle (increased by 5%), place a notice in the passenger
compartment, plainly in view, which states the maximum
speed allowed by the snow tyres (as per EC Directive).
All four tyres should be the same (brand and profile) to
ensure greater safety when driving and braking as well as
making the car more responsive.
Remember that you should not change the rotation di-
rection of the tyres.The ABS with which the vehicle may be
equipped will not control the braking sys-
tem of the trailer. Particular caution is therefore
required on slippery roads.
WARNING
Never modify the braking system of the ve-
hicle to control the trailer brake. The trail-
er braking system must be fully independent from
the hydraulic system of the vehicle.

INDEXUse your hazard lights, warning triangle,
etc to show that your car is stationary.
Passengers should get out of the car, particularly
if it is heavily loaded, and wait for the wheel to be
changed away from the traffic. If you are on a
steep slope or uneven surface, place wedges or
other suitable objects under the wheels to secure
the vehicle. Repair and refit the standard wheel
as soon as possible. Do not grease the bolt threads
before you fit them, because they could sudden-
ly come loose.
WARNING
Use the jack only to replace wheels on the
vehicle with which it is supplied or on oth-
er vehicles of the same model. Never use the jack
for other purposes, such as lifting other models.
Never use the jack to carry out repairs under the
vehicle. Incorrect positioning of the jack may
cause the lifted vehicle to fall. Do not use the jack
for loads higher than the one shown on its label.
WARNING
Incorrect hub cap assembly may cause it
to come off when the car is moving. Nev-
er tamper with the inflation valve. Never intro-
duce tools of any kind between the rim and the
tyre. Check tyre and spare wheel pressures regu-
larly, referring to the values shown in the “Tech-
nical specifications” section.
WARNING
Note for one-way tyres
One-way tyres have a few arrows on the side indicating
the rotation direction. If a wheel is changed (when punc-
tured, for example) the direction of the arrows on the spa-
re wheel tyre may not coincide with the rotation direc-
tion of the wheel to be replaced. In these conditions, too,
the tyre still maintains its safety features.
Anyway, it is recommended to have the wheel repaired
and refitted as soon as possible, as the best performance
is achieved when the rotation direction of all tyres coin-
cides with the one indicated by the arrows.

for other traffic and where you can replace the wheel
safely. The ground should be flat and solid;
❒ turn the engine off and engage the handbrake;
❒ engage first gear or reverse;
❒ wear the reflective safety jacket (compulsory by law)
before getting out of the vehicle;
❒ indicate that the vehicle is parked up by using the de-
vices required by law in the country in which you are
travelling (e.g. warning triangle, hazard lights etc.);
❒ for Cargo versions fig. 129: move the left front seat for-
wards using lever A to take the tool box and place it
near the tyre to be changed; ❒
