BATTERY
DISCONNECTION
FUNCTION
(DISCONNECTOR)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The battery disconnection function is
enabled with the ignition key in the
BATT position, as illustrated on the
dedicated plate located in the area
illustrated in fig. 77.To turn the ignition key to BATT
position, press button A (red) fig. 78.
The battery will be disconnected, by
interrupting the earth lead, about 45
seconds after the key is turned to the
BATT position.
This 45 second period is necessary to:
❒allow the driver to get out of the
vehicle and lock the doors using the
remote control;
❒guarantee that all the vehicle
electrical systems have been
deactivated.
With the battery disconnected, access
to the vehicle will only be possible by
unlocking the driver's door using the
mechanical lock.To restore the battery connection, insert
the ignition key and turn it to the
MAR-ON position, the vehicle can be
started normally at this point.
If the battery is disconnected, it may be
necessary to set certain electrical
devices again (e.g. clock, date, etc.).
CENTRAL LOCKING
To lock all doors at the same time,
press button A fig. 79, located on the
centre console control panel, regardless
of the position of the ignition key.
The LED on the button switches on
when the doors are locked.
The electric window panel features a
button D fig. 80 which independently
unlocks/locks the load compartment.76

DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This safety device inhibits the operation
of:
❒interior handles
locking/unlocking button A fig. 107
thereby preventing the opening of the
doors from inside the passenger
compartment if there has been
a break-in attempt (e.g. a window has
been broken).
The dead lock device therefore offers
the best possible protection against
break-in attempts. We recommend
engaging it whenever the vehicle is
parked and left unattended.
34)
Device activation
The dead lock device is automatically
activated on every door with two short
presses on the button
on the key
with remote control fig. 104.
Device activation is indicated by 3
flashes of the direction indicators and a
flash of the LED on button A fig. 107
on the dashboard.
If one or more of the doors is not
perfectly shut, the dead lock device will
not be activated, thus preventing a
person getting into the car through the
open door and, on shutting, it,
remaining stuck inside the passenger
compartment.
Device deactivation
The system is disabled automatically on
every door in the following cases:
❒if the mechanical key is turned to the
opening position in the driver's door;
❒by unlocking the doors using the
remote control;
❒by turning the ignition key to the
MAR-ON position.SLIDING SIDE DOOR
35) 36)
To open the sliding side door, lift handle
A fig. 109 and slide the door open.
The sliding side door is equipped with a
stop that prevents it sliding beyond
the end of its travel when opening.
To close, operate the exterior handle A
(or the corresponding interior handle)
and push to closed.
In any case, make sure that the door is

The rear swing-doors are equipped with
a spring loaded system that locks
them at an approx. angle of 90 degrees
during opening.

WARNING
34) Once the dead lock system is
engaged it is impossible to open
the doors from inside the vehicle.
Therefore, before engaging the
system check that there is no one
left inside. If the remote control
battery is flat, the system can be
disengaged only by inserting
the key in either of the door locks
as described previously: in this
case the device remains active
only for the rear doors.
35) Before leaving the vehicle
parked with sliding doors open,
always check that the latch is
engaged.
36) Do not move the vehicle with
side doors open.

37) Before setting off after parking
or before moving the vehicle in
any way, ensure that the
footboard is fully stowed away. As
the movement of the platform is
linked to that of the sliding side
door, the
warning light in the
instrument panel comes on if it is
not fully retracted in the same
way as when the rear doors are
not shut.
38) This spring loaded system has
activation forces that were
designed for optimum comfort.
Accidental knocks or a strong
gust of wind may release the
springs and close the doors
spontaneously.
39) With the doors opened to 180
degrees, no locking system is
effective. Do not use this opening
with the vehicle parked on a
gradient or when it is windy.
ELECTRIC WINDOWSELECTRIC

WARNING
40) Incorrect use of the electric
windows may be dangerous.
Before and during operation,
always check that nobody is
exposed to the risk of being
injured either directly by the
moving window or through
objects getting caught or by being
hit. When leaving the vehicle,
always remove the key from the
ignition switch to avoid the risk of
injury to anyone remaining in
the car due to accidental
operation of the electric windows.
BONNETOPENING
Proceed as follows:
❒open the driver's door to gain access
to the bonnet release handle;
❒pull the lever fig. 118 in the direction
indicated by the arrow;
❒lift lever A fig. 119 as shown in the
figure;
❒lift the bonnet and, at the same time,
release the bonnet stay fig. 120 from
its locking device D, then insert the
end C fig. 121 of the bonnet stay into
the housing E.
IMPORTANT Before opening the
bonnet, check that the windscreen
wiper arms are not lifted from the
windscreen.CLOSING
Proceed as follows:
❒hold the bonnet up with one hand
and with the other remove the stay
C fig. 121 from the housing E and fit
it back in its locking device D fig.
120;
❒lower the bonnet to approximately 20
centimetres from the engine
compartment and let it drop. Make
sure that the bonnet is completely
closed and not only fastened by the
locking device by trying to open it.
If it is not perfectly closed, do not try
to press the bonnet down but open
it and repeat the procedure.
IMPORTANT Always check that the
bonnet is closed correctly to prevent it
from opening while the vehicle is
travelling.118

68) Tyre pressure must be checked
with tyres cold. Should it become
necessary for whatever reason
to check pressure with warm
tyres, do not reduce pressure
even if it is higher than the
prescribed value, but repeat the
check when tyres are cold.
69) The TPMS cannot indicate
sudden tyre pressure drops (for
example when a tyre bursts).
In this case, stop the car, braking
with caution and avoiding abrupt
steering.
70) The system only warns that the
tyre pressure is low: it is not able
to inflate them.
71) An insufficient tyre inflation
increases fuel consumption,
reduces the tread duration and
may affect the capacity of driving
safely.
72) Always refit the valve stem cap
after inspecting or adjusting tyre
pressure. This prevents dampness
or dirt from entering the valve
stem and thus the pressure
control sensor from being
damaged.73) The tyre repair kit (Fix&Go)
provided with the car (for
versions/markets, where
provided) is compatible with the
TPMS sensors; using sealants not
equivalent with that in the original
kit may adversely affect its
operation. If sealants not
equivalent with the original one
are used, it is recommended to
have the TPMS sensor operation
checked by a qualified repair
centre.
DRIVING ADVISOR(lane crossing warning)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
78) 75) 76)
The Driving Advisor is a warning system
that notifies the driver if he/she crosses
the lane because he/she has been
distracted.
A video sensor, fitted on the windscreen
near the interior rear view mirror,
detects the lane demarcation lines and
the position of the car in relation to
them.
IMPORTANT On cars with Driving
Advisor, it is advisable to contact a Fiat
Dealership should the windscreen
need to be replaced. If the repair is
carried out at a specialist window
replacement centre, it is still necessary
to go to a Fiat Dealership to have the
camera calibrated.
OPERATION
The system is always active when the
vehicle is started. It can be deactivated
or re-activated by pressing button A
fig. 127 on the dashboard (see
following description).
