Door unlocking in the event of
a crash
If the fuel cut-off switch trips following an
accident, the doors will be automatically
unlocked to allow access to the passenger
compartment and the ceiling lights will be
switched on at the same time. The doors
can always be opened from the inside of
the car by using the appropriate controls.
if no fuel leakage is found and the car is
roadworthy, ensure the correct operation
of the vehicle by adhering to the following
instructions. DOOR LOCKING fig. 50
To lock all doors at the same time, press
button A, located on the central console
control panel, regardless of the position
of the ignition key.
FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEMThis system triggers after a collision and
activates the following:❒
cut-off of fuel supply with consequent
switching off of the engine;
❒
automatic door unlocking;
❒
switching on of all interior lights.

START&STOP SYSTEM(for versions/markets, where provided)
FOREWORD
The Start&Stop device automatically stops
the engine each time the vehicle is sta-
tionary and starts it again when the driver
wants to move off.
This improves the efficiency of the vehicle
by reducing fuel consumption, the emis-
sion of harmful gases and noise pollution.
The system is activated each time the car
is started.
OPERATING MODES
Engine cut-out mode
With manual transmission
With the vehicle stationary, the engine
cuts out with the gearbox in neutral and
the clutch pedal released.With Dualogic gearbox
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The engine cuts out if the car stops with
the brake pedal pressed.
This condition can be maintained even if
the brake pedal is not pressed, if the gear
lever is in position N.
NBThe engine can be stopped automat-
ically only after a speed of about 10 Km/h
is reached, to prevent the engine from be-
ing repeatedly stopped when driving at
walking pace.
The engine being stopped is signalled by
the warning light fig. 99on the instrument
panel, depending on the configuration.Engine restarting mode
With normal transmission
Press the clutch pedal to allow the engine
to be restarted.
With Dualogic gearbox
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If the gear lever is in position N, place it
in any other gear, otherwise release the
brake pedal or move the gear lever to (+),
(–) or R .

IMPORTANT
Before opening the bonnet,
make sure that the car is
switched off and the key is in the OFF
position. Follow the instructions on
the plate near the front crossmember
fig. 105. It is advisable to extract the
key when there are other people in
the car. The car should always be
evacuated after the key has been re-
moved or turned to the OFF position.
During refuelling operations, it is nec-
essary to make sure that the car is off
with the ignition key in the OFF po-
sition.
WARNING
For cars with a robotised
transmission, if the engine
cuts out automatically on a gradient,
it is advisable to restart the engine by
moving the gear lever towards (+) or
(-) without releasing the brake pedal.
For vehicles with Dualogic transmis-
sion, where the Hill Holder function
is present, if the engine cuts out au-
tomatically whilst on a hill, it is ad-
visable to restart it by moving the
gear lever towards (+) or towards (-)
without releasing the brake pedal to
make the Hill Holder function –
which is active only when the engine
is running – available.
WARNING
If you want to prioritise cli-
mate comfort, the Start&Stop
system can be disabled to allow con-
tinuous operation of the climate con-
trol system.
