FLASHING
To do this, pull the stalk towards the steering wheel
(unstable position) regardless of the position of
ring nut A.
The
warning light switches on in the instrument
panel.
DIRECTION INDICATORS
Bring the stalk to the (stable) position:
upwards:right-hand direction indicator activation;
downwards:left-hand direction indicator activation.
Theor
warning light will flash on the
instrument panel.
Direction indicators are switched off automatically
when the steering wheel is straightened.
Lane change function
If you wish to signal a lane change, put the left stalk
in the unstable position for less than half a second.
The direction indicator on the side selected will
be activated for 5 flashes and then go out
automatically.
“Cornering lights”
When the dipped headlamps are on and the speed is
below 40 km/h, if the steering wheel rotation angle
is large or the direction indicators are on, a light
(incorporated in the fog light) will switch on on the
relevant side to improve visibility at nighttime.“FOLLOW ME HOME” DEVICE
This allows the space in front of the car to be lit up
for a certain period of time.
Activation: with the ignition key turned to STOP or
removed, pull the stalk towards the steering wheel
within 2 minutes from when the engine is turned off.
Each time the stalk is moved, the lights stay on for
an extra 30 seconds up to a maximum of 210
seconds; then the lights are switched off
automatically.
Also, each time the stalk is operated, the
warning light on the instrument panel switches
on. The display shows a message and the time set for
the function.
The
warning light switches on when the stalk is
first moved and stays on until the function is
automatically deactivated. Each movement of the
stalk only increases the amount of time the lights
stay on.
Deactivation: keep the stalk pulled towards the
steering wheel for more than two seconds.

ACCESSORIES PURCHASED
BY THE OWNERIf after buying the car, you decide to install electrical
accessories that require a permanent electric supply
(radio, satellite anti-theft system, etc.) or accessories
that in any case burden the electric supply, contact
a Fiat Dealership, whose qualified personnel, besides
suggesting the most suitable devices from
Lineaccessori Fiat, will also evaluate the overall
electric consumption, checking whether the car's
electrical system is able to withstand the load
required, or whether it needs to be integrated with a
more powerful battery.
WARNING
Take care when fitting additional
spoilers, alloy wheels or non-standard
wheel hubs: they could reduce the ventilation of
the brakes and affect efficiency under sharp,
repeated braking or on long descents. Make
sure that nothing obstructs the pedal stroke
(mats, etc .)INSTALLING ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC
DEVICES
Electrical and electronic devices installed after buying
the car in the context of after-sales service must
carry the label (see fig. 125):
Fiat Group Automobiles S.p.A. authorises the
installation of transceiver devices on condition that
such installations are carried out in a workmanlike
fashion, following the manufacturer’s instructions, at
a specialised centre.
IMPORTANT Traffic police may not allow the car on
the road if devices have been installed which modify
the features of the car. This may also cause
invalidation of warranty in relation to faults caused
by the change either directly or indirectly related
to it.
Fiat Group Automobiles S.p.A. shall not be liable for
damage caused by the installation of accessories
either not supplied or recommended by Fiat Group
Automobiles S.p.A. and/or not installed in
compliance with the provided instructions.

SNOW TYRESUse snow tyres of the same size as the normal tyres
provided with the car.
A Fiat Dealership will be happy to provide advice
concerning the most suitable type of tyre for the
customer's requirements.
For the type of tyre to be used, inflation pressures
and the specifications of snow tyres, follow the
instructions given in paragraph "Wheels" in section
"Technical specifications".
The winter performance of these tyres is
considerably reduced when the tread thickness is less
than 4 mm. Replace them in this case.
Due to the specific characteristics of snow tyres, in
normal weather conditions or on long motorway
journeys, the performance of these tyres is lower
than that of standard tyres.
Their usage should therefore be restricted in
accordance with their type-approval; always comply
with specific local regulations relating to the use
of snow tyres.
All four tyres should be the same (brand and track)
to ensure greater safety when driving and braking
and better driveability. Remember that you should
not change the rotation direction of the tyres.
WARNING
The maximum speed for snow tyres
marked "Q" is 160 km/h, while it is 190
km/h for "T" tyres and 210 km/h for "H" tyres.
The highway code speed limits must however
always be complied with.

WARNING
Alert other drivers that the car is
stationary in compliance with local
regulations: hazard warning lights, warning
triangle, etc . Any passengers on board should
leave the car, especially if it is heavily laden.
Passengers should stay away from on-coming
traffic while the wheel is being changed. If you
are on a slope or uneven surface, place the
wedge provided under the wheel (see the
instructions on the next pages).
WARNING
The vehicle's driving characteristics will
be modified with the space-saver wheel
fitted. Avoid sudden starting or stopping, sharp
or fast turns.The overall duration of the
space-saver spare wheel is of about 3000 km,
after which the relevant tyre must be replaced
with another one of the same type. Never
install a standard tyre on a rim that is designed
for use with a space-saver wheel. Have the
wheel repaired and refitted as soon as possible.
Two or more space-saver wheels should never
be used together. Do not grease the threads
of wheel studs before fitting them: they might
slip out .
WARNING
The jack shall only be used for raising
the car model it has been supplied with.
Never use the jack for other purposes, such as
raising other car models. Never use the jack for
repair operations under the vehicle. Incorrectly
positioning the jack may cause the vehicle to
fall. Do not use the jack for loads higher than
the one shown on its label.The space-saver
wheel cannot be fitted with snow chains. If a
front (drive) tyre is punctured and chains are
needed, use a standard wheel from the rear
axle and install the space-saver wheel on the
rear axle. In this way, with two normal drive
wheels at the front axle, it is possible to use
snow chains.
WARNING
Incorrectly fitting the wheel cap may
cause it to fall off when the vehicle is in
motion. Never tamper with the inflating valve.
Never introduce tools of any kind between
rim and tyre. Check tyre and space-saver wheel
pressures regularly, complying with the values
given in the "Technical specifications" chapter.
