2013 FIAT 500 ABARTH trunk

CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions may cause interior water damage, stains or mil-
dew on the top material:
• Avoid high-pressure car washes, as they can damage the top material. Also,
increased water pressure may force water past the weather strips.
• Remove any standing water from the top and dry the surface before opening
it. Operating the top, opening a door or lowering a window while the top is
wet may allow water to drip into the vehicle’s interior.
• Use care when washing the vehicle, water pressure directed at the weather
strip seals may cause water to leak into the vehicle’s interior.
WARNING!
The convertible top does not provide the structural protection that a reinforced
metal roof does and the fabric top cannot be expected to prevent the ejection
of the occupants in a collision. Therefore, it is important that all occupants wear
their seat belts at all times. Death or serious injuries could occur if you are
ejected from the vehicle during a collision.
Power Convertible Top Relearn Procedure
If your power convertible top does not operate in the Auto Opening/Closing mode
(automatically opening/closing to the one-quarter open and three-quarter open
comfort stops), or if the remote keyless power top function is inoperable, or if the
trunk lid does not open - the following relearn procedure may be necessary.
1. Confirm that the door/trunk lid are closed.
2. Begin with the top in the fully closed position (using manual mode).
3. Hold the OPEN button to move the top to the fully open position.
4. CONTINUE to hold the OPEN button for an additional three seconds.
5. Release the OPEN button.
6. Hold the CLOSED button to move the top to the fully closed position.
7. CONTINUE to hold the CLOSED button until the top begins to cycle fully open,
then release the CLOSED button.

At the end of step 7 the top will automatically cycle to the fully open position, and
then close to the 1/4 open position.
This will confirm that the relearn procedure was successful.
Auto Open/Close will now be functional. Trunk lid operation will be functional.
Remote Keyless Power Top Function will be functional.
NOTE:
DO NOT interrupt this activity.
If the power convertible top does not relearn repeat the procedure a second time.
Wind Stop
The Wind Stop installs in the backseat area of the vehicle. The Wind Stop will not inter-
fere with power top operation. Therefore, it can remain installed when the top is up.
WIND BUFFETING
• Wind buffeting can be described as a helicopter-type percussion sound. If buffet-
ing occurs with the windows down, adjust one or both windows up or down
slightly.
• If buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening, or adjust
any window. This will minimize buffeting.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER
• To prevent possible engine damage while starting at low temperatures, this ve-
hicle will inhibit engine cranking when the ambient temperature is less than
–22° F (–30° C) and the oil temperature sensor reading indicates an engine block
heater has not been used. An externally-powered electric engine block heater is
available as optional equipment or from your authorized studio.
• The message "plug in engine heater" will be displayed in the instrument cluster
when the ambient temperature is below 5° F (–15° C) at the time the engine is
shut off as a reminder to avoid possible crank delays at the next cold start.
