FUEL CUT-OFF
SWITCH
The vehicle is fitted with a safety
switch that, in the event of a crash,
comes into operation by cutting
off the fuel supply and turning
off the engine as a consequence.When the inertia switch cuts in, it
cuts off the fuel supply and also
activates the hazard warning lights,
side lights and courtesy lights
while releasing all the doors and
displaying the relevant message;
they are deactivated by pressing
button A. On some versions, there
is also a safety relay that activates
in the event of impact to cut off
the electrical supply. In this way,
fuel is prevented from escaping
if the pipes are broken and the
formation of sparks or electrical
discharges following damage to the
vehicle electrical components is
avoided.
29) 30)
IMPORTANT After an accident,
remember to remove the key from
the ignition device to prevent the
battery from running down. If no
fuel leaks or damage to vehicle's
electrical devices (e.g. headlights)
are detected after the impact and
the vehicle is able to set off again,
reactivate the automatic fuel cut-off
switch.Restoring the fuel
cut-off switch
Press button A fig. 81 to reactivate
the fuel cut off switch.WARNING
29) If, after an impact, you smell fuel
or notice leaks from the fuel
system, do not reactivate the
switch to avoid the risk of fire.
30) Before reactivating the fuel
cut-off switch, carefully check for
fuel leaks or damage to the
vehicle's electrical devices (e.g.
headlights).

HEADLIGHTS
LIGHT BEAM
ALIGNMENT
The correct alignment of the
headlights is essential for the
comfort and safety of the driver and
other road users. To ensure the
best visibility when travelling with
the headlights on, the headlight
alignment must be correct. Contact
a Fiat Dealership to have the
headlights checked and adjusted.
HEADLIGHT
ALIGNMENT
CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition
key in the MAR-ON position and
the dipped beam headlights on.
The vehicle tilts backwards when it
is laden, raising the beam.
The beams must therefore be
realigned in this case.Headlight alignment
adjustment
Pressoron the control panel
fig. 124.
The instrument panel display shows
the position in relation to the
adjustment set.
IMPORTANT Check the alignment
of the light beams each time the
weight of the load transported
changes.
FOG LIGHTS
ALIGNMENT
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have
the headlights checked and
adjusted.ADJUSTING THE
HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
The dipped beam headlights are
aligned for operation in the country
where the vehicle was originally
purchased. When in countries
where you drive on the other side of
the road, you need to alter the
beam direction by affixing a
specially designed self-adhesive
film in order not to dazzle the
vehicles travelling in the opposite
direction. Such film is provided
by Lineaccessori Fiat and is
available at Fiat Dealerships.

HILL DESCENT
CONTROL (HDC)
SYSTEM
It is an integral part of the ESC and
is aimed at keeping the vehicle at
a constant speed during a descent,
operating autonomously on the
brakes in various ways at the same
time. In this way the vehicle stability
and completely safe driving are
guaranteed, above all in poor grip
conditions and/or steep descents.
To activate the system reach a
speed slower than 25 km/h and
press the dedicated key A fig. 126;
the LED on the button turns on
and the display gives a specific
message.After reaching the desired speed,
release the accelerator and brake
pedals completely (the LED on
the button flashes). If you want to
increase/decrease the speed, press
the accelerator/brake pedals
again.
IMPORTANT Do not use the device
with the gearbox in neutral position.
IMPORTANT It is important to
engage a gear suitable for the set
speed, to prevent the engine from
stalling.
When this function is active the
brake lights turn on automatically.
While the HDC system is operating
it is also possible to take control
of the vehicle again by pressing the
brake and accelerator pedals.
If the function is not made available
when the button is pressed, this
could be due to brake overheating.
In this case, wait a few minutes
before using the function again.
IMPORTANT The system is
available for speeds below 25
km/h.IMPORTANT Above 25 km/h the
HDC system deactivates but is still
ready to operate (the LED on the
button remains on) when the speed
is again below 25 km/h. If the
speed exceeds 50 km/h, the HDC
system deactivates completely
(the LED on the button switches off)
and the function does not operate
autonomously on the brakes
anymore. To reactivate it, press the
dedicated button again when the
speed is again below 25 km/h.

WARNING
58) The ESC system can’t overrule
the natural laws of physics, and
can’t increase the grip available
according to the condition of
the road.
59) The ESC system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to
excessive speed on corners,
driving on low-grip surfaces or
aquaplaning.

DRIVING ADVISOR
(lane crossing warning)
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
82) 79) 80)
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. 128 on the
dashboard (see following
description).
The LED on the button switches on
to confirm that the system has
been activated and a dedicated
message appears on the display.
When the system is activated,
the LED on the dedicated button is
off. If the user deactivates the
system, the LED on the button
switches on constantly and a
dedicated message appears on the
display to confirm that the system
has been switched off.The system is enabled at every key
cycle of the vehicle and starts
recognition of the operating
conditions (condition signalled to
the driver when the 2 direction
warning lights
andon the
instrument panel light up).
When the system recognises the
operating conditions, it becomes
active, i.e. it can assist the driver
with visual and acoustic warnings.
Therefore the two direction warning
lights
andon the instrument
panel switch off to prevent
excessively frequent warnings while
driving in towns or on winding
roads at low speeds.
IMPORTANT If the operating
conditions are no longer present,
the system remains activated
but inactive. Therefore the driver is
warned by the 2 direction warning
lights
andon the instrument
panel switching on constantly.

WARNING
82) If the camera loses its position
due to a load variation, the system
may not work temporarily to allow
the camera to perform an
autocalibration.
83) The system only detects the
preset traffic signs. If the
minimum visibility conditions and
distance from the sign are met
it can detect all traffic signs.
84) The system is a driving
assistance system but it does not
relieve the driver of the
responsibility of driving with due
attention and diligence in
compliance with the laws in force.
85) When the system is active, the
driver is responsible for
controlling the vehicle and
monitoring the system, and must
intervene as appropriate if
necessary.
IMPORTANT
10) If the sensor is blocked, the
system may not work.
11) In the case of low temperatures
or harsh weather conditions, the
system may not work.
12) Rain, snow, splashes and strong
light contrast may influence the
sensor.
13) Do not repair the area of the
windscreen directly surrounding
the sensor.
14) If the vehicle is equipped with a
non-genuine suspension kit, the
system may not work correctly.
15) Always use genuine spare parts
when replacing the bulbs of the
headlights. Other bulbs may
reduce the system performance.
16) Clean the windscreen from
foreign matters such as bird
droppings, insects, snow or ice.
EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD system (European On
Board Diagnosis) allows continuous
diagnosis of emission-related
components on the vehicle to be
made.
It also alerts the driver, by turning
on the
warning light in the
instrument panel (together with
relevant message in the
multifunction display, for versions/
markets where provided) when
these components are no longer in
peak condition (see “Warning
lights and messages” paragraph).
The aim of the system is to:
❒monitor system efficiency;
❒indicate an increase in emissions due
to vehicle malfunction;
❒indicate the need to replace
components which have
deteriorated.
