When the keyless operation key is
set down in an area with strong radio
waves or noise. In such cases, use the
emergency key. Refer to “To
lock/unlock without using the keyless
operation function”.
NOTE Because the keyless operation
key receives signals in order to
communicate with the transmitters in
the vehicle, the battery continually
wears down regardless of keyless
operation key use. The battery life is
1 to 2 years, depending on usage
conditions. When the battery wears out,
replace the battery according to the
description in this manual or have it
replaced a Fiat Dealership. Refer to
“Procedure for replacing the key
battery”.
NOTE Because the keyless operation
key continually receives signals, strong
radio wave reception could affect
battery wear. Do not leave the key near
a TV, personal computer, or other
electronic device.
Operating range of the keyless
operation system
If you are carrying the keyless operation
key, enter the operating range of the
keyless operation system, and press
the driver’s or front passenger’s door
lock/unlock switch, the ID code for your
key is verified.You can lock and unlock the doors,
start the engine and change the
operation mode only if the ID codes of
your keyless operation key and the
vehicle match.
NOTE If the keyless operation key
battery is wearing out or there are
strong electromagnetic waves or noise
present, the operating range may
become smaller and operation may
become unstable.
Operating range for locking and
unlocking the doors
The operating range is approximately
70 cm from the driver’s or front
passenger’s door lock/unlock switch.
NOTE Locking and unlocking operate
only when you press a door switch that
detects the keyless operation key.
NOTE Operation may not be possible if
you are too close to the front door or
window.
NOTE Even if the keyless operation key
is within 70 cm of the driver’s or front
passenger’s door lock/unlock switch, if
the key is near to the ground or high
up, the system may not operate.
NOTE If the keyless operation key is
within the operating range, even
someone not carrying the key can lock
and unlock the doors by pressing the
driver’s or front passenger’s door
lock/unlock switch.Operating range for starting the
engine and changing the operation
mode
The operating range is the interior of the
vehicle.
NOTE Even if it is within the operating
range, if the keyless operation key is in
a small item holder such as the glove
box, on top of the instrument panel,
door pocket or in the luggage
compartment, it may be impossible to
start the engine and change the
operation mode.

the cool air from the ventilators may
appear as a mist. This is due to moist
air being suddenly cooled by the air
conditioning. This will clear after a few
moments.
NOTE Be careful not to spill beverages,
etc., into the ventilators. Doing so might
cause the air conditioner not to function
normally.
Mode selection

82)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.
IMPORTANT
30)Note that the support bar may
disengage the bonnet if the open bonnet is
lifted by a strong wind.
31)After inserting the support bar into the
slot, make sure the bar supports the

Cargo loads precautions
When loading luggage, be careful to the
following.
Stow cargo and luggage in the cargo
area whenever possible.
Distribute cargo or luggage evenly
not to be unbalanced in weight of a
load.
Do not place cargo or luggage on
the instrument panel. Also, do not stack
up cargo or luggage on the front
passenger’s seat or the rear seat.
Having the driver’s vision blocked, and
your cargo being thrown inside the
cabin if you suddenly have to brake can
cause a serious accident or injury.
HIGH-LOAD SYSTEM,
PROTRUDING LOADS
Check that the load is distributed evenly
on the flatbed and that the rear side
panel is correctly closed, so that the
load, or part of it, cannot fall onto the
road surface.
Some simple suggestions can improve
driving safety, comfort and vehicle
duration:
distribute the load evenly over the
platform: if it must be concentrated it in
a single area, choose an area mid-way
between both axles;
remember that the dynamic
behaviour of the vehicle is affected by
the transported weight: in particular, the
stopping distances are longer,
especially at high speed.
Bumpy roads and heavy braking may
cause unexpected load shifting with
consequently hazardous situations:
before setting off, secure the load tightly
using the partition and appropriate
hooks, steel cables, ropes or chains
strong enough to hold the items to be
secured.
83) 84) 85) 86) 87) 88)
WARNING
83)If the vehicle is parked on a very steep
slope or side gradient, opening the rear
flap of the flatbed or a side door may
cause any objects or luggage which is not
fixed to spill out.
84)If you wish to carry a reserve of petrol
in a can, observe the legal restrictions and
only use a can that is type-approved and
properly secured to the load anchorage
eyebolts. Anyway, by doing so, you
increase the risk of fire in the event of an
accident with your vehicle.
85)Respect the maximum permitted
vehicle loads also shown on the
registration certificate. The user is
responsible for arranging goods in the
luggage compartment and/or on the load
platform within the maximum permitted
loads.
