Activation
Turn the ring nut to position
fig.
63: this turns the side lights and the
dipped beam headlights on
simultaneously and automatically
depending on the exterior
brightness conditions.
Deactivation
On the sensor’s deactivation
command, the main beam
headlights will switch off, followed
by the side lights after
approximately 10 seconds.
The sensor is not capable of
detecting the presence of fog.
Therefore, in these circumstances,
the lights have to be turned on
manually.
WARNING
23) The daytime running lights are
an alternative to dipped beam
headlights for driving during the
daytime. They are compliant in
countries where is it obligatory to
have lights on during the day
and permitted in those where it is
not obligatory. Daytime running
lights cannot replace dipped
beam headlights when driving at
night or through tunnels. The
use of daytime running lights is
governed by the highway code of
the country in which you are
driving. Comply with legal
requirements.
24) The system is based on
recognition via a camera.
Particular environmental
conditions may affect the correct
recognition of traffic conditions.
Therefore, the driver is always
responsible for the correct use of
the main beam headlights in
compliance with the laws in force.
Rotate the ring nut to the
fig.
58 position to deactivate the
automatic function.25) Should the camera tilt too much
due to a load variation, the system
may not work temporarily to allow
the camera to perform an
autocalibration.

Storing vehicle speed
Proceed as follows:
❒turn ring nut A fig. 66 - fig. 67 to ON
or
(according to the version) and
press the accelerator pedal so that
the vehicle reaches the desired
speed;
❒move the stalk upwards (+) for at
least one second, then release it. The
vehicle speed is now stored and
you can therefore release the
accelerator pedal.
If necessary (e.g. when overtaking)
acceleration is possible by simply
pressing the accelerator pedal:
releasing the accelerator pedal the
car will return to the speed stored
previously.
Restoring the stored
speed
If the device has been deactivated,
for example by depressing the
brake or clutch pedal, the stored
speed can be restored as follows:
❒accelerate progressively until a speed
close to that stored is reached;
❒engage the gear selected at the time
that the speed was stored;
❒press button B fig. 66 - fig. 67.
Increasing the stored
speed
This can be done in two ways:
❒by pressing the accelerator
and storing the new speed reached
or
❒by moving the stalk upwards (+).
Each activation of the lever
corresponds to an increase in
speed of about 1 km/h, whilst
keeping the lever upwards varies
the speed continuously.
Reducing the stored
speed
This can be done in two ways:
❒by switching off the device and then
storing the new speed;
or
❒by moving the stalk downwards (-)
until the new speed, which will be
stored automatically, is reached.
Each movement of the lever will
correspond to a slight reduction in
speed of about 1 km/h, while
keeping the lever held downwards
will decrease the speed
continuously.Deactivating the
device
The device can be switched off by
the driver in the following ways:
❒turning ring nut A to OFF orO
(according to the version);
❒by stopping the engine;
Deactivating the
function
The device can be switched off by
the driver in the following ways:
❒turning ring nut A to OFF orO
(according to the version);
❒pressing the button B, both with
symbolIIand symbol CANC/RES,
the system pauses;
❒by stopping the engine;
❒by pressing the brake pedal or
operating the handbrake;
❒by pressing the clutch pedal;
❒requesting a gear shift with an
automatic transmission in sequential
mode;
❒with the vehicle speed below the set
limit

❒by pressing the accelerator pedal; in
this case the system is not actually
turned off but the acceleration
request takes priority; the Cruise
Control remains activated, without
the need to press the CANC/RES
button to restore the previous
conditions once the acceleration is
over.
The device is automatically
switched off in the following cases:
❒if the ABS or ESP systems cut in;
❒in the event of system failure.
27) 28)
SPEED LIMITER
This device allows the speed of the
car to be limited to values which
can be set by the driver.
The maximum speed can be set
both with vehicle stationary and in
motion. The minimum speed that
can be set is 30 km/h.
When the device is active, the car
speed depends on the pressure
at the accelerator pedal, until the
programmed speed limit is reached
(see "Speed limit programming"
paragraph).If necessary (in the event of
overtaking for example), the set
speed limit can be exceeded by
fully depressing the accelerator
pedal.
By gradually reducing the pressure
on the accelerator pedal, the
function will be reactivated as soon
as the car speed drops below the
set speed.
Switching the device
on
To activate the device, turn ring nut
A fig. 68 to position
.
Activation of the device is indicated
by the
warning light on the
instrument panel switching on and,
on some versions, by a message
on the display plus last
programmed speed value.Speed limit
programming
The speed limit can be
programmed without necessarily
activating the device.
To store a speed value higher than
that displayed, move stalk A
upwards (+). Each movement of the
stalk corresponds to an increase
in speed of about 1 km/h, while
keeping the stalk held upwards will
increase the speed with an
increment of 5 km/h.
To store a value lower than that
displayed, move stalk A
downwards (–). Each movement of
the stalk corresponds to a
decrease in speed of about 1 km/h,
while keeping the stalk held
downwards a decrease of 5 km/h is
obtained.

the owner of the vehicle on which
the tachograph is installed to check
the device regularly.
The check must be carried out at
least every two years and a test
must be carried out to ensure that it
is working properly. Ensure that
the data label is renewed after
every check and that the
label contains the specified data.SPEED BLOCK
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
The vehicle is equipped with a
speed limitation function that can
be set at the user's request to one
of 4 predefined values: 90, 100,
110, 130 km/h.
To activate/deactivate this function,
contact a Fiat Dealership.

the regulations in force.
SELF-LEVELLING AIR
SUSPENSION
GENERAL
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.
70
KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

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”.
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.
