TRIP COMPUTERIntroduction
The “Trip computer” is used to display in-
formation on car operation when the key
is turned to MAR. This function allows
you to define two separate trips called
“Trip A” and “Trip B” for monitoring the
car’s “complete journey” in a reciprocal-
ly independent manner.
Both functions are resettable (reset – start
of a new journey).
“Trip A” shall be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– Outside temperature;
– Range
– Distance travelled
– Average consumption
– Instant consumption
– Average speed
– Travel time (driving time).“Trip B”, available on multifunction display
only, shall be used to display the figures
relating to:
– Distance travelled B
– Average consumption B
– Average speed B
– Travel time B (driving time).
NB“Trip B” functions may be excluded
(see “Trip B on”). “Range” and “Instant
consumption” parameters cannot be reset.
Values displayed
Outside temperature
Indicates the temperature outside the
vehicle passenger compartment.
Range
This indicates the distance which may be
travelled with the fuel in the tank assum-
ing that driving style does not change. The
display will show the reading “- - - -“ when
the following events take place:
– value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
– car left parked with engine running for
a long time.
Distance travelled
This value shows the distance covered
from the start of the new journey.Average consumption
This value shows the average consump-
tion from the start of the new journey.
Instant fuel consumption
Indicates the fuel consumption. The val-
ue is constantly updated. The message
“- - - -” will appear on the display if the car
is parked with the engine running.
Average speed
This value shows the car’s average speed
based on the overall time elapsed since the
start of the new journey.
Journey time
This value shows the time elapsed since
the start of the new journey.
IMPORTANT If information is not avail-
able, the message “- - - -” will appear in-
stead of the Trip Computer values.
Counting of the different values will be re-
sumed regularly when normal operation
is restored. This will not cause any reset-
ting of the values displayed before the fail-
ure nor the starting of a new journey.

dicator;
❒
Down (position 2): left-hand direction
indicator.
The ¥
or
Î
lights will blink on the in-
strument panel.
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 temporary 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.“FOLLOW ME HOME” DEVICE
This will light up the space in front of the
vehicle for a certain period of time.
Activation
With the key turned to STOPor re-
moved, pull the left-hand 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.When the stalk is moved, the light
3
on
the instrument panel will light up and the
corresponding message will appear in the
display (see “Warning lights and mes-
sages”) as long as the function is on. The
light comes on when the stalk is first
moved and stays on until the function is
automatically deactivated. Each movement
of the stalk increases only the amount of
time the lights stay on.
Deactivation
Keep the stalk pulled towards the steer-
ing wheel for more than 2 seconds.
FRONT FOG LIGHTS WITH
CORNERING LIGHTS
FUNCTION
When the dipped headlamps are on and
the speed is below 40 km/h, if the steer-
ing wheel rotation angle is large or the di-
rection indicators are on, a light (incor-
porated in the fog light) will come on on
the relevant side to improve visibility at
nightime. This function can be activat-
ed/deactivated via the display menu (see

REAR WINDOW WASHER/WIPER
fig. 41This can work only when the key is turned
to MAR.
The function stops when the stalk is re-
leased.
Turning the twist switch from Oto
'
will
operate the rear window wiper as follows:
❒
intermittent operation if the wind-
screen wiper is off;
❒
synchronised operation (but with half-
stroke frequency) when the windscreen
wiper is on;
❒
continuous operation with reverse en-
gaged and function on.Do not use the rear window
wiper to remove layers of
snow or ice. In such condi-
tions, the rear window wiper
may be subjected to excessive stress,
prompting intervention from the mo-
tor protection which prevents opera-
tion for a few seconds. If operation is
not restored, even after turning the key
and restarting the engine, go to a Fiat
Dealership.
The rear window wiper will run in con-
tinuous mode when the windscreen wiper
is on and reverse gear is engaged.
Pushing the stalk towards the dashboard
(temporary position) will activate the rear
window washer jet.
Keeping the stalk pushed for more than
half a second will also activate the rear
window wiper.
Smart wash function is activated when the
stalk is released, like for the windscreen
wiper.

Courtesy light timing
On certain versions, to facilitate getting
in/out of the car at night or in poorly-lit ar-
eas, two timed modes have been provided.TIMING WHEN GETTING INTO THE CARThe courtesy lights switch on as follows:❒
for about 10 seconds when unlocking
the front doors;
❒
for about 3 minutes when opening one
of the side doors;
❒
for about 10 seconds when closing the
doors.
The timed period is interrupted when the
ignition is turned to MAR.
TIMING WHEN GETTING OUT OF THE CARAfter removing the key from the ignition,
the courtesy lights switch on as follows:❒
within 2 minutes from turning the en-
gine off for about 10 seconds;
❒
when opening one of the side doors for
about 3 minutes;
❒
when one of the doors is closed for
a period of about 10 seconds.
The timed period stops automatically
when the doors are locked. CAUTION Before getting out of the car,
make sure both switches are in the cen-
tral position; when the doors are closed,
the lights switch off to prevent the battery
from running down.
In any case, if the switch is left in the ‘per-
manently on’ position, the courtesy light
goes off automatically 15 minutes after the
engine switching off.
