MAINTENANCE
INDICATOR
It regulates the intervals between the main-
tenance operations based on vehicle use.
Functioning
As soon as the starting key is inserted and
for a few seconds, the maintenance key lights
up and which indicates the maintenance op-
erations; the total odometer display indicates
the number of kilometres {rounded down}
which can be covered until the next main-
tenance operation. The maintenance expiry
dates are calculated starting from the last re-
setting of the indicator.
This expiry date is determined by means
of two parameters:
❒the distance in kilometres covered
❒time which has passed since the last
maintenance operation.
The distance in kilometres
which remains to be covered
can be considered by the time
factor, based on the driver’s
driving habits.

F0P0355m
OIL OK
F0P0356m
Maintenance expiry date over
1,000 km
Example: one can still travel 4,800 km be-
fore the next maintenance operation. Af-
ter having turned the starting key to the
Mposition and for a few seconds, the dis-
play indicates:
A few seconds after having turned the
starting key to the Mposition, the oil lev-
el is shown, therefore the total odometer
works again and it indicates the total and
daily amount of kilometres travelled.
Maintenance expiry date less than
1,000 km
After having turned the starting key to the
Mposition and for a few seconds, the
maintenance key flashes and the remain-
ing number of kilometres is shown.ENGINE OIL LEVEL
INDICATOR
Turning the starting key to the
Mposition, the instrument, after having
shown the kilometres to be covered be-
fore the next maintenance operation, sup-
plies the synchronised indication of the oil
level present in the engine oil pan. The
flashing of the word “OIL”, accompanied
by a beeping and by a message, indicates
an insufficient quantity of oil in the engine.
The flashing of the word “OIL –“ indicates
a problem with the engine oil sensor.
Maintenance Expiry date exceeded
After having turned the
starting key to the Mposi-
tion and for a few seconds,
the maintenance key flashes
and the number of kilome-
tres
travelled after the expiry date of the main-
tenance operation is shown.
When the engine is running, the
maintenance key remains
switch until the maintenance
operation has been carried out.
Before the two expiry dates are reached:
the maintenance key lights up also when
the expiry date of two years has been ex-
ceeded.

STEERING WHEEL
The driver can adjust the steering wheel
position both axially and in height.
To adjust the armrests proceed as follows:
❒release the lever A-fig. 35pushing it
forwards (position 2);
❒adjust the steering wheel as required;
❒lock the lever Apulling it towards the
steering wheel (position 1).fig. 35F0P0028m
Any adjustment of the steer-
ing wheel position must be
carried out only with the vehicle sta-
tionary and the engine turned off.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to
carry out whatever after-
market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifica-
tions (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect per-
formance and safety, cause the lapse
of warranty and also result in non-
compliance of the vehicle with ho-
mologation requirements.

When outside temperature is cold, recir-
culation is forced to off (outside air inlet)
to prevent window misting up.
In automatic operation inside air recircu-
lation will be controlled automatically by
the system according to outside environ-
mental conditions.Climate control compressor on/off
button A
Pressing button A/Cwill activate the com-
pressor and the display may show the
same wording A/Cto confirm activation.
With compressor on, pressing button
A/Cagain will deactivate the climate con-
trol compressor and therefore the word-
ing will disappear from the display.
When turning the compressor off, the sys-
tem will deactivate air recirculation to pre-
vent window misting up. If the system is
no longer able to keep the required tem-
perature, temperature value will flash and
the wording AUTOwill disappear from
the display.IMPORTANT With the climate control
compressor off, it is not possible to admit
air to the passenger compartment with a
temperature below the outside tempera-
ture; moreover, under certain environ-
mental conditions, windows could mist up
fastly since air is not dehumidified.
The switching off of the climate control
compressor remains in storage even when
the engine has been stopped. To restore
automatic control for switching on the cli-
mate control compressor, press again but-
ton A/Cor press button AUTO.
With climate control compressor off, the
fan speed can be set to zero manually.
With compressor on and engine running,
the fan speed cannot be lower that one
bar on the display.
It is inadvisable to use air re-
circulation on rainy/cold
days as it would considerably increase
the possibility of windows misting up
inside.
