IGNITION SWITCH fig. 7
The key can be turned to 3 different po-
sitions:
❒STOP: engine off, key extractable,
steering locked. Some electrical devices
(e.g. car radio, central door locking sys-
tem, etc.) are enabled
❒MAR: driving position. All electrical de-
vices are enabled
❒AVV: engine start.
The ignition switch is fitted with a safety sys-
tem that, if the engine does not start, forces
to return the ignition key to STOPbefore
repeating the starting operation.
Never extract the key while
the vehicle is moving. The
steering wheel would be locked as
soon as the steering wheel is turned.
This also applies to when the car is
towed.
It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
whatever after-market operation in-
volving steering system or steering col-
umn modifications (e.g.: installation
of anti-theft device) that could badly
affect performance and safety, cause
the lapse of warranty and also result
in non-compliance of the car with ho-
mologation requirements.

Three different switch on modes are fore-
seen:
❒when opening one door, a three minute
timing is set;
❒when removing the key from the igni-
tion switch within two minutes from

side door), a 10 second timing is set.
Three modes are foreseen for switch off:
❒when closing all doors, a three minute
timing is set; The timing is disabled if the
key is moved to MAR;
❒when doors are locked (either with re-
mote control or with key on driver side
door), the ceiling light turns off.
❒the internal lights turn off after 15 min-
utes to avoid battery drain
BOOT LIGHT
The lamp comes on automatically when the
luggage compartment is opened and goes
out when it is closed.
CEILING LIGHTS
FRONT CEILING LIGHT
The lens can be set to three positions:
❒right side pressed: light always on
❒left side pressed: light always off
❒central position (neutral): the light turns
on and off when the doors are opened
or closed.
IMPORTANT Before getting out of the
car, make sure the switch is on the cen-
tral position: ensure that lights are off with

'to activate the rear
window wiper which, in this case, oper-
ates (in the different positions) in synch
with the windscreen wiper, yet with half
its frequency. With windscreen wiper ac-
tive, engaging reverse gear, the rear win-
dow wiper automatically turns on in slow
continuous mode.
It stops when the reverse gear is disen-
gaged.
“Smart washing” function
Pushing the stalk towards the dashboard
(unstable position) will activate the rear
window washer.
Keep the stalk pushed to activate with a
single movement the rear window wash-
er jet and the rear window wiper; the lat-

stalk pushed for over half a second.
The rear window wiper stops operating
a few strokes after releasing the stalk; a
further “cleaning stroke”, after a few sec-
onds, completes the wiping operation.
Do not use the rear window
wiper to remove layers of
snow or ice from the rear win-
dow. In such conditions, the
rear window wiper may be subjected to
excessive stress and the motor protec-
tion which prevents operation for a few
seconds may trip. If the issue persists,
contact the Abarth Dealership.
