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
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).
The dead lock device therefore offers
the best possible protection against
break-in attempts. We recommend
engaging it whenever the vehicle is
parked and left unattended.

Device activation
The dead lock device is automatically
activated on every door with two short
presses on the button
on the key
with remote control fig. 104.
Device activation is indicated by 3
flashes of the direction indicators and a
flash of the LED on button A fig. 107
on the dashboard.
If one or more of the doors is not
perfectly shut, the dead lock device will
not be activated, thus preventing a
person getting into the car through the
open door and, on shutting, it,
remaining stuck inside the passenger
compartment.
Device deactivation
The system is disabled automatically on
every door in the following cases:
❒if the mechanical key is turned to the
opening position in the driver's door;
❒by unlocking the doors using the

65) The HBA system is an aid for the
driver, who must always pay full
attention while driving. The
responsibility always rests with
the driver. The features of the
HBA system must never be tested
in imprudent or dangerous ways,
with the possibility of putting
the safety of the driver, occupants
or other road users at risk.
66) The performance of a vehicle
with ERM must never be tested
in imprudent or dangerous ways,
with the possibility of putting
the safety of the driver or other
people at risk.
IMPORTANT
8) Prolonged use of the system may
overheat the braking system. If
the brakes overheat, the HDC
system, when active, will be
gradually deactivated after
suitably informing the driver (the
LED on the button turns off): it
can be reactivated only when the
brakes have cooled sufficiently.
The distance that can be covered
depends on the temperature of
the brakes and therefore on the
gradient, load and speed of the
vehicle.
TRACTION PLUS
SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Traction Plus is a driving aid, useful
for setting off in poor grip conditions on
non-homogeneous road surfaces
(snow/asphalt, ice/asphalt, mud/
asphalt, etc.), which allows the drive
force to be distributed adequately
on the engine axle when one of the two
drive wheels slips.
Traction Plus acts by braking the wheel
with poor grip (or slipping more than
the others), thereby transferring the
drive force to that which has greater
grip on the ground.
This function can be activated manually
by pressing button A on the dashboard
fig. 127 and operates under 50 km/h.
When this speed is exceeded, it is
automatically deactivated (the LED on
the button is still on) and it is
reactivated again when the speed falls
below 30 km/h.

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
and
on 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
and
on 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.OPERATING CONDITIONS
FOR ACTIVATION
Once switched on, the system
becomes active only if the following
conditions are met:
❒front driving direction (reverse not
engaged);
❒the system does not detect any error;
❒calibration in progress;
❒vehicle speed between 60 km/h and
max. vehicle speed;
❒presence of lane demarcation lines
not deteriorated and visible on both
sides;
❒suitable visibility conditions;
❒straight line or wide radius bends;
❒sufficient field of vision condition
(safety distance from vehicle in front);
❒direction indicators not activated
in the lane exiting direction (e.g. right
lane exiting direction, right direction
indicator activated);
❒vehicle direction getting constantly
closer to the lane demarcation lines
(the vehicle trajectory is within the
lane demarcation lines);
❒vehicle not constantly next to the lane
demarcation line.

SYSTEM ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
When the system is active, if the vehicle
gets close to one of the limit lines or
one of the two lane demarcation lines,
the driver is warned with an acoustic
signal (coming from the crossed line
side if the vehicle is equipped with the
radio navigation system) along with
the corresponding direction warning
light (
or) lighting up.
If the driver turns on the direction
indicator in order to change lanes or for
overtaking, then the system will switch
off the driver warning.
If the driver keeps deliberately with the
lane change manoeuvre, the system
interrupts the warning, remaining
enabled if the operating conditions are
not satisfied or active if the operating
conditions are exceeded (see the
dedicated paragraph).SWITCHING OFF THE
SYSTEM
Manual mode
The system can be switched off by
pressing button A fig. 128 on the
dashboard.
The LED on the button switches on and
a message appears on the display to
confirm that the system has been
switched off.
Automatic mode
If the Start&Stop is active the system
deactivates automatically. The system
will reactivate and check its operating
conditions again after the vehicle has
been started.
SYSTEM FAILURE
In the case of malfunction the system
signals the fault to the driver with a
message on the display, an acoustic
warning and switching on of the icon
on the display (for versions/markets,
where provided).IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The Driving Advisor cannot operate due
to a not perfectly balanced and
excessive load.
The operation of the system can be
adversely affected in some cases
by the morphology of the territory/road
being driven on (e.g. driving over
humps), poor visibility conditions (e.g.
fog, rain, snow), extreme light
conditions (e.g. glare of the sun,
darkness), lack of cleanliness
or damage, even partial, to the
windscreen in the area in front of the
camera.
The Driving Advisor cannot operate
following a malfunction of the following
safety systems: ABS, ESP, ASR and
Traction Plus.
The operation of the system can be
adversely affected by poor visibility
conditions (e.g. fog, rain, snow),
extreme light conditions (glare of the
sun, darkness), lack of cleaning or
damage, even partial, to the
windscreen in the area in front the
camera.
The area of the windscreen by the
camera must not be partly or totally
obscured by objects (e.g. stickers,
protective film, etc.).
