FUEL CUT-OFF
SWITCHThe vehicle is fitted with a safety switch
that, in the event of a crash, comes
into operation by cutting off the fuel
supply and turning off the engine as a
consequence.When the inertia switch cuts in, it cuts
off the fuel supply and also activates
the hazard warning lights, side lights
and courtesy lights while releasing
all the doors and displaying the relevant
message; they are deactivated by
pressing button A. On some versions,
there is also a safety relay that activates
in the event of impact to cut off the
electrical supply. In this way, fuel is
prevented from escaping if the pipes
are broken and the formation of sparks
or electrical discharges following
damage to the vehicle electrical
components is avoided.
29) 30)
IMPORTANT After an accident,
remember to remove the key from the
ignition device to prevent the battery
from running down. If no fuel leaks
or damage to vehicle's electrical
devices (e.g. headlights) are detected
after the impact and the vehicle is
able to set off again, reactivate the
automatic fuel cut-off switch.Restoring the fuel
cut-off switch
Press button A fig. 81 to reactivate the
fuel cut off switch.
WARNING
29) If, after an impact, you smell fuel
or notice leaks from the fuel
system, do not reactivate the
switch to avoid the risk of fire.
30) Before reactivating the fuel
cut-off switch, carefully check for
fuel leaks or damage to the
vehicle's electrical devices (e.g.
headlights).

SELF-LEVELLING AIR
SUSPENSIONGENERAL INFORMATION
The system only acts on the rear
wheels.
The system maintains the rear ride
setting for the vehicle constant in any
loading condition, while ensuring a
greater driving comfort. In addition, the
system allows the height of the vehicle
to be adjusted with the vehicle
stationary, by selecting from 7 different
positions to facilitate access to the
rear compartment.
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
There are 7 pre-defined levels for the
free height from the ground: from “ride
-3” to “ride 0” till “ride +3”.
The multifunction display, located in the
middle of the instrument panel, can
show the ride position.
Automatic adjustment
When moving, the system automatically
shows that the vehicle is in 'ride setting
0' and keeps it constant.
During the adjustment the LED located
on the button (A or B fig. 103)
corresponding to the direction of travel,
flashes.Manual adjustment
4)
With the vehicle stationary and the
engine on or off, the desired height level
can be set.
Manual adjustment is only available for
a limited number of times with the
engine switched off.
Pressing button A, for less than 1
second, selects the next level
up. Keeping button A pressed, for more
than 1 second, selects the maximum
level directly: “ride +3”.
Pressing button B, for less than 1
second, selects the next level down.
Keeping button B pressed, for more
than 1 second, selects the minimum
level directly: “ride -3”.103

KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

During the adjustment the LED located
on the button (A or B) corresponding
to the direction of travel, flashes.
If, after selecting a button, the LED
remains lit up (for about 5 seconds)
rather than flashing, this means that the
adjustment is temporarily unavailable.
Possible causes may be as follows:
❒insufficient air reserve: the function is
restored by starting the engine;
❒the system has reached a threshold
working temperature: wait a few
minutes to let it cool down before
operating the buttons again.
The level selected with the vehicle
stationary is maintained up to a speed
of about 20 km/h; when this speed
is exceeded, the system will
automatically restore the normal level:
“ride 0”.
IMPORTANT
4) Before manually adjusting with
doors open, make sure there is
enough space around the vehicle
for this kind of operation.
