100)The vehicle should always be
evacuated after the key has been removed
or turned to the OFF position. When
refuelling, make sure that the vehicle is
switched off with the key in the OFF
position.
101)For vehicles with robotised gearbox, if
the engine is stopped downhill, the engine
must be restarted by the gear lever
towards (+) or (-) without releasing the
brake pedal. For vehicles with robotised
gearbox and Hill Holder function, in case of
engine automatic stop with the car
downhill, the engine must be restarted
moving the gear lever towards (+) or (-)
without releasing the brake pedal, so that
the Hill Holder function becomes available,
as it works only with engine running.
102)If climate comfort is to be favoured,
the Start&Stop system can be deactivated,

DESCRIPTION
The tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) warns the driver of low tyre
pressure on the basis of the cold
inflation pressure prescribed for the
vehicle.
Changes in outside temperature may
cause tyre pressure to vary. This means
that a decrease in the outside
temperature corresponds to a decrease
in the tyre pressure.
Tyre pressure must always be adjusted
according to the cold inflation pressure.
Cold tyre inflation pressure is the tyre
pressure after letting the vehicle stand
for at least three hours or a travel
shorter than 1.6 km after an interval of
three hours.
The cold tyre inflation pressure must
not exceed the maximum inflation
pressure value printed on the side of
the tyre.
The tyre pressure also increases while
driving the vehicle: this is a normal
condition and does not require any
adjustment of the pressure.NOTE
The TPMS does not replace the
normal tyre maintenance service and
does not indicate any fault in a tyre.
Therefore, the TPMS should not be
used as pressure switch while adjusting
the tyre inflation pressure.
Driving with insufficient tyre pressure
causes their overheating and can
result in tyre failure. The low inflation
pressure reduces fuel efficiency and
tyre tread life and may also affect
handling and braking performance of
the vehicle.
The TPMS does not replace the
correct tyre maintenance. It is up to the
driver to maintain the correct tyre
pressure level measuring it with
a suitable pressure switch. This is
necessary even if the decrease in the
inflation pressure value does not cause
the tyre pressure control warning light
to switch on.
The TPMS warns the driver of any
condition of insufficient tyre pressure
If this drops below the insufficient
pressure limit for any reason including
low temperature and normal pressure
loss of the tyre.
The seasonal temperature changes
affect tyre pressure.

STARTING AND DRIVING

Restoring the stored
speed
If the device has been deactivated, for
example by depressing the brake or
clutch pedal, the stored speed can be
restored as follows:
accelerate progressively until a
speed close to that stored is reached;
engage the gear selected at the time
that the speed was stored;
press button B fig. 153.
Increasing the stored
speed
This can be done in two ways:
by pressing the accelerator and
memorizing the new speed reached;
or
by moving the stalk upwards (+).
Each operation of the stalk will
correspond to a slight increase in
speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping
the stalk upwards will increase the
speed continuously.
Reducing the stored
speed
This can be done in two ways:
by deactivating the device and then
storing the new speed
or
by moving the stalk downwards (-)
until the new speed, which will
automatically remain memorised, is
reached.Each movement of the stalk will
correspond to a slight reduction in
speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping
the stalk held downwards will decrease
the speed continuously.
Deactivating the device
The device can be switched off by the
driver in the following ways:
by turning ring nut A to the OFF
position;
if the engine is stopped (leaving the
stalk ring nut at ON), when the ignition
key is next turned to ON, Cruise
Control will be activated automatically.
Deactivating the
function
The device can be switched off by the
driver in the following ways:
by pressing the brake pedal when
the device is adjusting the speed:
by pressing the clutch pedal when
the device is adjusting the speed;
by pressing button B fig. 153 when
the device is adjusting the speed (for
versions/markets, where provided);
by pressing the accelerator pedal (in
this case the system is not actually
turned off but the acceleration request
takes priority; the cruise control remains
activated, without the need to the
press button B fig. 153 to restore the
previous conditions once the
acceleration is over).
The device is automatically switched off
in the following cases:
if the ABS or ESC systems intervene
with the vehicle speed below the
set limit
in the event of system failure.
WARNING
112)When travelling with the device active,
never move the gear lever to neutral.
113)In the event of device faults or failures,
turn the ring nut A to OFF and contact a
Fiat Dealership.

STARTING AND DRIVING

becomes continuous when the
distance between the vehicle and the
obstacle is less than 30 cm and stops
immediately if the distance increases;
is constant if the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle is
unchanged;
whereas, if this situation occurs for
the side sensors, the indication will stop
after about 3 seconds to avoid, for
example, warning indications in the
event of manoeuvres alongside walls.
Detection distances
If several obstacles are detected by the
sensors, only the nearest one is
considered.
FAULT INDICATIONS
Any parking sensor faults will be
indicated when reverse is engaged by
the warning light in the instrument panel
switching on together with the
message in the multifunction display, for
versions/markets, where provided (see
chapter "Warning lights and
messages”).
114)
OPERATION WITH
TRAILER
Parking sensor operation is
automatically deactivated when the
electric cable plug of the trailer is
inserted into the vehicle tow hook
socket. The sensors are automatically
reactivated when the trailer's cable plug
is removed.
IMPORTANT
If you wish to leave the tow hook fitted
without towing a trailer, it is advisable to
contact a Fiat Dealership for the
relevant system update operations
because the tow hook could be
detected as an obstacle by the central
sensors.
GENERAL WARNINGS
115)
When parking, take the utmost care
over obstacles that may be above or
under the sensor.
Sometimes, objects located very
near the rear of the vehicle are not
detected and could therefore damage
the vehicle or be damaged themselves.
The following conditions may influence
the performance of the parking
assistance system:
Reduced sensor sensitivity and a
reduction in the parking assistance
system performance could be due to
the presence on the surface of the
sensor of: ice, snow, mud, thick paint.
The sensor may detect a non-
existent obstacle (echo noise) due to
mechanical noises, for example when
washing the vehicle, in case of rain,
strong wind, hail.
The signals sent out by the sensors
can be altered by dirt, snow or ice
deposited on the sensors or by
ultrasound systems (e.g. truck
pneumatic brakes or pneumatic drills)
near the vehicle.
The performance of the parking
assistance system may also be affected
by the position of the sensors. For
example by a change in the ride setting
(caused by the wear of the shock
absorbers, suspension), changing the
tyres, overloading the vehicle and
carrying out specific tuning operations
that require the vehicle to be lowered.
Detection of obstacles in the upper
part of the vehicle (particularly in the
case of vans or chassis cabs) may not
be guaranteed because the system
detects obstacles that could strike the
lower part of the vehicle.
The parking sensors work properly
with the swing doors closed.

STARTING AND DRIVING

Avoidpointless actionssuch as
revving up when at traffic lights or
before stopping the engine. The latter
action, like double-declutching, is
unnecessary and causes increased fuel
consumption and pollution.
Gear selection:select a high gear
as soon as possible (taking into
account normal engine operation and
traffic conditions) without pushing
the engine to high revs during
the intermediate gears. Using low gears
at high revs to get lively acceleration
increases fuel consumption, harmful
emissions and engine wear.
Vehicle speed:fuel consumption
increases exponentially as the speed of
the vehicle increases. Keep your speed
moderate and as even as possible,
avoiding unnecessary braking and
acceleration, which cause excessive
fuel consumption and increased
emissions. Keeping a safe distance
from the vehicle in front helps to
maintain a steady speed.
Acceleration:accelerating violently
severely affects consumption and
emissions. Acceleration should be
gradual and should not exceed the
maximum engine torque rate.CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short journeys and frequent cold starts
do not allow the engine to reach
optimum operating temperature.
This results in a significant increase in
consumption levels (from +15 to +30%
on the urban cycle) and emissions.
Traffic and road conditions
Rather high consumption levels are
linked to situations with heavy traffic, for
instance when travelling in queues
with frequent use of the lower gears or
in cities with many traffic lights. Winding
mountain roads and rough road
surfaces also adversely affect
consumption.
Stops in traffic
During prolonged hold-ups (e.g. level
crossings) the engine should be
switched off.
TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT
The vehicle must be equipped with a
type-approved tow hook and adequate
electrical system to tow trailers.
Installation should be carried out by
specialised personnel who will issue the
required papers for travelling on roads.
Install any specific and/or additional
door mirrors as specified by the
Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, braking
spaces increase and overtaking takes
longer depending on the overall weight.
Engage a low gear when driving
downhill, rather than constantly using
the brake.
The weight of the trailer on the vehicle
tow hook will reduce the loading
capacity of the vehicle by the same
amount.
To make sure that the maximum
towable weight is not exceeded (given
in the vehicle registration document)
account should be taken of the fully
laden trailer, including accessories and
luggage.
Do not exceed the speed limits specific
to each country you are driving in, in
the case of vehicles towing trailers.
In any case, the top speed must not
exceed 80 km/h.

WARNING
116)The ABS device with which the
vehicle is equipped will not control the
braking system of the trailer. Particular
caution is required on slippery roads.
117)Never modify the braking system of
the vehicle to control the trailer brake. The
trailer braking system must be fully
independent from the hydraulic system of
the vehicle.
SNOW TYRES
Fiat Dealerships will be happy to
provide advice concerning the most
suitable type of tyres for the customer's
requirements.
For the type of tyre to be used, inflation
pressures and the specifications of
snow tyres, follow the instructions given
in the "Wheels" paragraph of the
"Technical specifications" section.
The winter features of these tyres are
reduced considerably when the tread
depth is below 4 mm. Replace them in
this case.
Due to snow tyre characteristics, under
normal conditions of use or on long
motorway journeys, the performance of
these tyres is lower than that of
standard tyres. Limit performance
according to the use for which they
were approved.
IMPORTANT When using snow tyres
with a maximum speed index below the
one that can be reached by the vehicle
(increased by 5%), place a notice in
the passenger compartment, plainly in
view, which states the maximum speed
allowed by the snow tyres (as per EC
Directive).
All four tyres should be the same (brand
and track) to ensure greater safety
when driving and braking as well as a
good manoeuvrability.Remember that you should not change
the rotation direction of the tyres.118)
WARNING
118)The max. speed for snow tyres with
“Q” marking is 160 km/h. The Road Traffic
Code speed limits must however be
always strictly observed.
