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 nut A
toO.
The deactivation of the device is
indicated by the
warning light
switching off on the instrument panel
and, on some versions, by a message
and
symbol on the display.
Automatic deactivation
of device
The device deactivates automatically in
the event of fault in the system.
WARNING
27) When travelling with the device
active, never move the gear lever
to neutral.

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.

If one or more of the doors is open after
the button
on the remote control is
pressed, the direction indicators and
the LED in the button fig. 107 will flash
quickly for about 3 seconds. When
the function is active the button A fig.

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.
