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.

Exceeding the
programmed speed
By fully depressing the accelerator
pedal, the programmed speed
can be exceeded even with the
device active.
IMPORTANT A slight hardening of
the accelerator pedal is perceived
when the end of travel is reached.
This is to intentionally signal to
the driver that the speed control
system is being deactivated.
When the programmed speed limit
is reached by fully depressing the
accelerator pedal, it is normal to
perceive increased resistance
on the pedal itself.In this case the device is
deactivated temporarily and the set
speed flashes on the display.
Reducing the speed below the
programmed value reactivates the
device automatically.
IMPORTANT With the device
deactivated, the car maximum
speed is reached before the end of
travel with the load hardening.
Flashing of
programmed speed
The programmed speed flashes in
the following cases:
❒when the accelerator pedal has been
fully depressed and the car speed
has exceeded programmed speed;
❒when the device cannot reduce the
speed of the car due to the gradient
of the road;
❒in the event of sharp acceleration.
Deactivating the
device
To deactivate the device, turn ring
nutAtoO.
The deactivation of the device is

When the doors are locked, the
LED in button A is on and, when
the button is pressed again, all the
doors are centrally unlocked and
the warning light is switched off.
When the doors are unlocked, the
LED is off and pressing the button
again centrally locks all the doors.
The doors will be locked only if
all the doors are properly shut.
Following the locking of the doors
using:
❒remote control
❒door pawl
they cannot be unlocked using the
button A fig. 107 in the dashboard.IMPORTANT With the central
locking on, pulling the opening lever
for one of the front doors causes
the central locking to be switched
off. Individual doors can be
unlocked by pulling the opening
handle of one of the rear doors.
If a power supply is not present
(blown fuse, battery disconnected,
etc.) it is, however, possible to
lock the doors manually.
After exceeding 20 km/h, all the
doors will be locked automatically if
the setup menu function has been
selected (see “Multifunction display”
paragraph in this section).
LOAD COMPARTMENT
BUTTON
The activation of the locking is
signalled by the LED in the button.
The LED comes on in the following
cases:
❒after each door lock command
generated by the button D fig. 108 or
by button
in the dashboard;
❒when the instrument panel is
activated;
❒upon opening of one of the front
doors;
❒when the door is locked at 20 km/h
(if activated from the menu).
The lock is turned off when one of
the load compartment doors is
opened or on a door release
request (load compartment or
centralised) or an unlocking request
from the remote control/door
catch.
DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
This safety device inhibits the
operation of:
❒interior handles
locking/unlocking button A fig. 107
107F1A0303
108F1A0116
73
thereby preventing the opening of
the doors from inside the
passenger compartment if there
has been a break-in attempt (e.g. a
window has been broken).
WARNING
34) Once the dead lock system is
engaged it is impossible to open
the doors from inside the vehicle.
Therefore, before engaging the
system check that there is no one
left inside. If the remote control
battery is flat, the system can be
disengaged only by inserting
the key metal insert in either of
the door locks as described
previously: in this case the device
remains active only for the rear
doors.
35) Before leaving the vehicle
parked with sliding doors open,
always check that the latch is
engaged.
36) Do not move the vehicle with
side doors open.37) Before setting off after parking
or before moving the vehicle in
any way, ensure that the
footboard is fully stowed away. As
the movement of the platform is
linked to that of the sliding side
door, thewarning light in the
instrument panel comes on if it is
not fully retracted in the same
way as when the rear doors are
not shut.
38) This spring loaded system has
activation forces that were
designed for optimum comfort.
Accidental knocks or a strong
gust of wind may release the
springs and close the doors
spontaneously.
39) With the doors opened to 180
degrees, no locking system is
effective. Do not use this opening
with the vehicle parked on a
gradient or when it is windy.
40) It is forbidden to drive the
vehicle with the footboard open.
41) Do not use the retracted
footboard for getting up or down
the load compartment.42) Make sure that the footboard is
suitably locked by the provided
retaining systems before, after
and during its use. An incomplete
opening or closing might cause
an improper movement of the
footboard with risks arising for the
operator and external users.
43) The footboard lightly projects
from the vehicle even if retracted;
therefore, when rear parking
sensors are provided, their
operating range is lightly reduced.
IMPORTANT
5) The footboard presence may
reduce the ramp approach angles;
it is therefore recommended, in
case of a very steep ramp, to
be very careful in order not to
damage the footboard.
