ROOF LIGHT TIMING
On certain versions, to facilitate getting into/out of
the car, especially at night or in poorly-lit areas,
two timed modes have been provided.
Timing when getting into the car
The roof lights switch on according to the
following modes:
❒for about 10 seconds when the doors are
unlocked;
❒for about 3 minutes when one of the doors is
opened;
❒for about 10 seconds when the doors are closed.
The timed period is interrupted when the ignition
key is turned to MAR-ON.
The lights switch off in three ways:
❒when all doors are closed, the 3-minute timer
will stop and a 10-second one will start. This
timer will stop when the key is turned to
MAR-ON;
❒when doors are locked (either with remote
control or with key on driver side door), the roof
light switches off.
❒the courtesy lights are switched off in any case
after 15 minutes to preserve battery chargeTiming when getting out of the car
After removing the key from the ignition switch,
the roof lights switch on as follows:
❒if the ignition key is removed within 3 minutes
from the engine stopping, the roof lights switch
on for 10 seconds;
❒for about 3 minutes when one of the doors is
opened;
❒for about 10 seconds when one of the doors is
closed.
The timing stops automatically when the doors are
locked.

ECO FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Press the ECO button fig. 47 for at least 5 seconds
to activate the function.
When the ECO function is activated, the car is set
for city driving, characterised by less effort on
the steering wheel (Dualdrive system on) and
reduced fuel consumption.
When this function is activated, the word ECO on
the display will light up on some versions.
This function stays in the memory, so when the
vehicle is started again, the system keeps the
setting it had before the engine was stopped. Press
the ECO button again to deactivate the function
and restore the normal driving setting.FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM
This intervenes in the event of an impact causing:
❒the interruption of the fuel supply with the
engine consequently cutting out
❒the automatic unlocking of the doors
❒the automatic switching on of the interior lights
❒the switching on of the hazard warning lights.
On some versions, the intervention of the system is
indicated by a message shown on the display.
IMPORTANT Carefully check the car for fuel
leaks, for instance in the engine compartment,
under the car or near the tank area. After a
collision, turn the ignition key to STOP to prevent
the battery from running down.

ELECTRIC WINDOWSThese operate when the ignition key is turned to
MAR and for about three minutes after turning
the key to STOP or removing it if one of the front
doors is open.
The control buttons are located in the door panels
(for versions/markets, where provided) (the driver
side door panel can be used to operate all the
windows).
An anti-crush device operates when the front and
rear windows are raised (for versions/markets,
where provided).
WARNING
Improper use of the electric windows
can be dangerous. Before and during
operation, always check that passengers are
not exposed to the risk of being injured
either directly by the moving windows or
through objects getting caught or struck by
them. When leaving the car, always remove
the ignition key to avoid the risk of injury
of people still on board due to accidental
operation of the electric windows.

Front and rear passenger doors
(for versions/markets, where provided)
On the passenger side front door control panel,
and on some versions also on the rear doors,
buttons are provided to control the associated
windows.
Anti-crush safety device
The car is equipped with an anti-crush function
for the raising of the front and rear windows. This
safety system detects the presence of an obstacle
during the window closing travel and intervenes
by stopping and reversing the window travel,
depending on its position.
This device is also useful if the windows are
activated accidentally by children on board the
car.
The anti-crush safety function is active both
during the manual and the automatic operation of
the window. When the anti-crush system is
activated the window travel is immediately
interrupted and then reversed. The window
cannot be operated in any way during this
operation.
IMPORTANT If the anti-crush protection
intervenes 3 consecutive times within 1 minute or
is faulty, the automatic closing operation of the
window is inhibited, only allowing it in steps
of half a second; the button is released for the
subsequent manoeuvre. In order to restore the
correct operation of the system, the relevant
window must be lowered.IMPORTANT With ignition key at STOP or
removed, the electric windows remain active for
about 3 minutes and are deactivated when a door
is opened.
IMPORTANT Where the anti-crush function is
present, pressing button
on the remote control
for more than 2 seconds opens the windows for as
long as the button is pressed. Pressing the
button for more than 2 seconds closes the
windows.
The system conforms to the 2000/4/EC
standard concerning the safety of
passengers leaning out of the passenger
compartment.

ABS SYSTEMABS is an integral part of the braking system
which prevents, whatever the road conditions and
force applied to the brake pedal, the wheels from
locking and consequently sliding under braking,
thus ensuring that the car remains under control
even during emergency braking.
The EBD system (Electronic Braking Force
Distribution) completes the system allowing the
brake force to be distributed between the front
and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT To obtain the maximum efficiency
of the braking system, a bedding-in period of
about 500 km is needed: during this period it is
better to avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged
braking.
WARNING
The ABS gets the most from the
available grip, but it cannot improve
it; you should therefore take every care when
driving on slippery surfaces and not take
unnecessary risks.SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can feel that the ABS system has come
into action because the brake pedal pulsates
slightly and the system gets noisier: it means that
the car speed should be altered to suit the type
of road surface.
WARNING
When the ABS cuts in and you feel
the brake pedal pulsating, do not
remove your foot, but keep the pedal pushed
down; in doing so you, will stop in the
shortest distance possible under the road
conditions at the time.
WARNING
If the ABS system is activated, this
indicates that the traction of the tires
on the road is nearing its limit. You must
slow down to a speed compatible with the
available wheel traction.
