KNOWING YOUR CAR
FIAT CODE
The Fiat Code system prevents
unauthorised use of the vehicle,
disabling engine starting.
The system does not need to be
enabled/activated: operation is
automatic, regardless of the fact that
the vehicle's doors are locked or
unlocked.
When the ignition device is set to MAR,
the Fiat Code system identifies the
code transmitted by the key. If the code
is recognised as valid, the Fiat Code
system enables engine starting.
When the ignition device is brought
back to STOP, the Fiat Code system
deactivates the control unit controlling
the engine, thus preventing its starting.
For the correct engine starting
procedures, see the instructions in the
"Starting the engine" paragraph,
"Starting and driving" chapter.IRREGULAR OPERATION
If, during starting, the key code is not
correctly recognised, theicon is
displayed on the instrument panel (see
the instructions in the "Warning lights
and messages" paragraph, "Knowing
the instrument panel" chapter). This
condition leads to the engine switching
off after 2 seconds. In this case, bring
the ignition device to STOP and then to
MAR; if it is still blocked, try with the
other keys provided. If it is still not
possible to start the engine, contact a
Fiat Dealership.
If the
icon is displayed while
driving, this means that the system is
running a self-diagnosis (e.g. due to a
voltage drop). If the display persists,
contact a Fiat Dealership.

than half a second, the windscreen
wiper is moved with active control.
When the driver releases the stalk, the
windscreen wiper makes three strokes.
Afterwards, if the control is in position
O, the washing cycle is concluded by
one last stroke after a 6 second pause.
If the position isLOWorHIGH, the
washing function is not carried out.
IMPORTANT If the stalk is activated for
less than half a second, only the
windscreen washer jet is activated. Do
not prolong the activation of the "Smart
Washing" function for more than 30
seconds. Do not activate the
windscreen washer control when the
reservoir is empty.
“Service Position” function
This function makes it possible to
replace the wipers or protect them in
conditions of ice and/or snow.
It can only be activated after turning off
the vehicle.
The Service Position can be explicitly
requested by the driver within two
minutes of turning off the vehicle, when
the wipers have correctly returned to
the parking position.
The driver can enable the function by
turning the ring nut to positionOand
moving the stalk upwards, to the MIST
position, more than three times. Theactivations are used to position the
wipers as preferred. The function is
deactivated when the vehicle is turned
on, with a wiping request or when the
vehicle is moving (speed above 5
Km/h).
IMPORTANT Make sure, when turning
on the vehicle, that the windscreen is
free of snow or ice before turning the
ignition key.
RAIN SENSOR(where provided)
7) 8)
The sensor will be activated when the
ignition device is turned to MAR, and
will be deactivated in the STOP
position.
This is a device located behind the
interior rear view mirrorfig. 29, in
contact with the windscreen and can
measure the amount of rain and,
consequently, manage the automatic
wiping mode of the windscreen in
accordance with the amount of water
on the screen. The rain sensor will be
activated when the ignition device is
turned to MAR. If no rain is detected,
the wiper will not carry out any strokes.
If it is raining, the windscreen wiper
moves according to the amount of rain
measured by the sensor.Activation/deactivation: use the
display Menu or theUconnect™
system (where provided).
WARNING
22)If the window needs to be cleaned,
make sure the device is deactivated or the
key is on STOP.
IMPORTANT
5)Never use the windscreen wipers to
remove layers of snow or ice from the
windscreen. In such conditions, the
windscreen wiper may be subjected to
excessive stress and the motor cut-out
switch, which prevents operation for a few
seconds, may intervene. If operation is not
subsequently restored, even after restarting
the engine, contact a Fiat Dealership.

that the bonnet is completely closed
and not only fastened by the locking
device by trying to open it. If it is not
perfectly closed, do not try to press the
bonnet lid down but open it and repeat
the procedure.
IMPORTANT Always check that the
bonnet is closed correctly to prevent it
from opening while the vehicle is
travelling.
WARNING
24)Perform these operations only when
the car is stationary.
25)The bonnet may drop suddenly if the
supporting rod is not positioned correctly.
26)Use both hands to lift the bonnet.
Before lifting, check that the windscreen
wiper arms are not raised from the
windscreen, that the vehicle is stationary
and that the parking brake is engaged.
27)For safety reasons, the bonnet must
always be properly closed while the car is
travelling. Therefore, make sure that the
bonnet is properly closed and that the lock
is engaged. If you discover that the bonnet
is not perfectly closed during travel, stop
immediately and close the bonnet in the
correct manner.
DUALDRIVE
ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING
This only operates with the key turned
to MAR and the engine started. The
electric 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.
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. No
repair intervention is needed in this
case. When the car is used again, the
power steering will work normally again.
IMPORTANT The Dualdrive electric
power steering provides an electronic
damping effect when approaching the
end of travel. In some manoeuvring
conditions, the steering wheel may
perform an additional small rotation until
reaching its mechanical stop. This
behaviour is normal and is intended to
prevent excessive impacts with the
mechanical components located inside
the device.POWER STEERING

Activation/deactivation:
Press the fig. 41 button.
The activation of the function is
signalled by a visual indication (CITY) on
the instrument panel or, based on the
version, on the display.
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.
