2016 FIAT PANDA turn signal

On automatic sensor controlled
deactivation, the dipped headlights are
deactivated first, followed by the side
lights a few seconds later.
If the sensor is activated but is
malfunctioning, the side lights and
dipped headlights are switched
on irrespective of the external lighting
conditions: the sensor failure is
indicated on the display. It is also
possible to deactivate the sensor and
switch on the desired lights, if
necessary.
IMPORTANT The sensor cannot detect
the presence of fog. These lights must
therefore be switched on manually in
these circumstances.

WARNING
21)When leaving the vehicle, always
remove the key from the ignition to avoid
the risk of injury due to accidental
operation of the sun roof. Improper use of
the roof can be dangerous. Before and
during operation, always check that
nobody is at risk of being injured by the

caught or hit by it.

DUALDRIVE
ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING
22) 23)
This only operates with the key turned
to MAR and the engine started. The
steering allows the force required at the
steering wheel to be adjusted to suit
driving conditions.
IMPORTANT When turning the ignition
key quickly, full power steering
functionality can be achieved after a
few seconds.
CITY FUNCTION
ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
Press the CITY fig. 28 button to
activate/deactivate the function. The
activation of the function is signalled by
the word CITY on the display (in some
versions it is signalled by the word CITY
appearing on the instrument panel).
When the CITY function is on, the
steering wheel effort is lighter, making
parking easier: therefore, this function is
particularly useful for driving in city
centres.IMPORTANT During parking
manoeuvres requiring a lot of steering,
the steering may become harder; this is
normal and is due to the intervention
of the system to protect the electric
steering motor from overheating so no
intervention is required. When the
vehicle is used again later on,
the power steering will work normally.
WARNING
22)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft
device) that could adversely affect
performance and safety, invalidate the
warranty and also result in non-compliance
of the vehicle with type-approval
requirements.
