TRIP COMPUTER
Introduction
The “Trip computer” is used to display in-
formation on car operation when the key
is turned to MAR. This function allows
you to define two separate trips called
“Trip A” and “Trip B” for monitoring the
car’s “complete journey” in a reciprocal-
ly independent manner.
Both functions are resettable (reset – start
of a new journey).
“Trip A” shall be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– Outside temperature;
– Range
– Distance travelled
– Average consumption
– Instant consumption
– Average speed
– Travel time (driving time).“Trip B”, available on multifunction display
only, shall be used to display the figures
relating to:
– Distance travelled B
– Average consumption B
– Average speed B
– Travel time B (driving time).
NB“Trip B” functions may be excluded
(see “Trip B on”). “Range” and “Instant
consumption” parameters cannot be reset.
Values displayed
Outside temperature
Indicates the temperature outside the
vehicle passenger compartment.
Range
This indicates the distance which may be
travelled with the fuel in the tank assum-
ing that driving style does not change. The
display will show the reading “- - - -“ when
the following events take place:
– value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
– car left parked with engine running for
a long time.
Distance travelled
This value shows the distance covered
from the start of the new journey.Average consumption
This value shows the average consump-
tion from the start of the new journey.
Instant fuel consumption
Indicates the fuel consumption. The val-
ue is constantly updated. The message
“- - - -” will appear on the display if the car
is parked with the engine running.
Average speed
This value shows the car’s average speed
based on the overall time elapsed since the
start of the new journey.
Journey time
This value shows the time elapsed since
the start of the new journey.
IMPORTANT If information is not avail-
able, the message “- - - -” will appear in-
stead of the Trip Computer values.
Counting of the different values will be re-
sumed regularly when normal operation
is restored. This will not cause any reset-
ting of the values displayed before the fail-
ure nor the starting of a new journey.

If the fuel cut-off switch trips following an
accident, the doors will be automatically
unlocked to allow access to the passenger
compartment and the ceiling lights will be
switched on at the same time. The doors
can always be opened from the inside of
the car by using the appropriate controls.
if no fuel leakage is found and the car is
roadworthy, ensure the correct operation
of the vehicle by adhering to the following
instructions. DOOR LOCKING fig. 50
To lock all doors at the same time, press
button A, located on the central console
control panel, regardless of the position

ABS SYSTEM
If you have never driven a vehicle with
ABS before, it is advisable to perform
a few tests on slippery ground, naturally in
conditions of safety and respecting the
highway code of the country where you
are driving. Read the following informa-
tion carefully.
ABS is an integral part of the braking sys-
tem which prevents, whatever the road
conditions and force applied to the brake
pedal, the wheels from locking and con-
sequently sliding under braking, thus en-
suring that the vehicle remains under con-
trol even during emergency braking.
The system is completed by EBD (Elec-
tronic Brakeforce Distribution), which dis-
tributes the braking action between front
and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT For the maximum efficien-
cy of the braking system, a bedding-in pe-
riod of about 500 km is needed (for a new
vehicle or after having replaced the brake
pads/discs): during this period it is better
to avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged
braking.The ABS gets the most from
the available grip, but it can-
not improve it; you should therefore
take every care when driving on slip-
pery surfaces and not take unneces-
sary risks.
WARNING
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can tell the ABS system has
been activated because the brake pedal
pulsates slightly and the system gets nois-
ier: this means that the car speed should
be altered to fit the type of road surface.
MECHANICAL BRAKE ASSIST
(emergency braking assistance)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This system (which cannot be deactivat-
ed) recognises emergency braking condi-
tions according to the speed of operation
of the brake pedal and provides an addi-
tional hydraulic braking pressure to sup-
port that provided by the driver. This al-
lows faster and more powerful operation
of the braking system.
IMPORTANT When the Mechanical
Brake Assist is activated noises can be
heard from the system. This is normal.
Anyway, while braking keep the brake
pedal depressed.
If the ABS cuts in, it is a sign
that the grip between tyre
and the road surface has reached the
limit: you must slow down to match
the speed to the road grip available.
WARNING
FAILURE INDICATIONS
ABS failure
This is indicated by the
>warning light
on the instrument panel together with the
dedicated message on the multifunction
display (for versions/markets, where pro-
vided) coming on (see “Warning lights and
messages” section).
In this case, the braking system will work
as normal, but without the extra capacity
offered by the ABS system. Drive care-
fully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have
the system checked.

ESPSYSTEM(Electronic
StabilityProgram)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronic system that controls
car stability in the event of tyre grip loss,
helping to maintain directional control.
The ESP system is therefore particularly
useful when road surface grip changes.
In addition to the ESP system, ASR system
and Hill Holder, the MSR system (adjusting
the engine braking torque) and the HBA
system (improving the braking force dur-
ing emergency braking) are also provided
(for versions/markets, where provided).
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
This is signalled by the flashing of warn-
ing light
áon the instrument panel, to in-
form the driver that the car is in critical
stability and grip conditions.
When the ABS cuts in and
you feel the brake pedal pul-
sating, do not remove your foot, but
keep the pedal pushed down; in do-
ingsoyou,willstopintheshortest
distance possible under the road con-
ditions at the time.
WARNINGEBD failure
This is indicated by the
>andxwarn-
ing lights on the instrument panel togeth-
er with the dedicated message on the mul-
tifunction display (for versions/markets,
where provided) coming on (see “Warn-
ing lights and messages” section).
In this case, the rear wheels may sudden-
ly lock and the vehicle may swerve when
braking sharply. Drive carefully to the
nearest Fiat Dealership to have the system
checked.
If only thexwarning light
on the instrument panel
lights up (together with a message in
the multifunction display, for ver-
sions/markets, where provided) stop
the vehicle immediately and contact
the nearest Fiat Dealership. Fluid
leaking from the hydraulic system will
compromise the operation of the
braking system, whether it is of the
conventional type or with ABS.

SYSTEM ACTIVATION
The ESP system is automatically activat-
ed when the car is started and cannot be
de-activated.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
In the event of a failure, the ESP will be au-
tomatically switched off and the
áwarn-
ing light will come on permanently on the
instrument panel along with a message on
the multifunction display (for versions/
markets, where provided) (see “Warning
lights and messages” section). The LED on
the ASR OFF button will also light up.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as pos-
sible if this happens.
HYDRAULIC BRAKE ASSIST
(integrated ESP emergency
braking assistance)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This system (which is compulsory) recog-
nises emergency braking according to the
speed of operation of the brake pedal and
provides additional hydraulic braking pres-
sure to support that applied by the driver.
This allows faster and more powerful op-
eration of the braking system.
The Hydraulic Brake Assist is deactivat-
ed on versions equipped with ESP, in the
event of an ESP system failure (indicated
by warning light
áswitching on together
with the message in the multifunctional
display, for versions/markets, where pro-
vided).
Do not take unnecessary
risks, even if your vehicle is
fitted with an ESP system. Your dri-
ving style must always be suited to the
road conditions, visibility and traffic.
The driver is always ultimately re-
sponsible for road safety.
WARNING
HILL HOLDER SYSTEM
This is an integral part of the ESP system,
making hill-starts easier.
It is automatically activated in the follow-
ing conditions:
❒uphill: vehicle stationary on a road with
a gradient higher than 5%, engine run-
ning, brake pedal pressed and gearbox
in neutral or gear other than reverse;
❒downhill: vehicle stationary on a road
with a gradient higher than 5%, engine
running, brake pedal pressed and re-
verse gear engaged.
At pick-up, the ESP system control unit
will maintain the braking pressure at the
wheels until the necessary engine torque
for moving away is reached or, in any case,
for a maximum of 2 seconds in order to
move easily from the brake pedal to the
accelerator pedal.If the vehicle has not departed after this
time, the system will deactivate automat-
ically by gradually releasing the brake
force.
At release, the typical brake disengage-
ment noise indicating that the car is go-
ing to move will be heard.
Failure indications
System failure is indicated by the turning
on of warning light*on the instrument
panel with digital display and warning light
áon the instrument panel with multi-
function display (for versions/markets,
where provided) (see section “Warning
lights and messages”).
IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is
not a parking brake; therefore, never leave
the vehicle without having engaged the
handbrake, turned the engine off and se-
lected first gear.
For the correct operation of
the ESP and ASR systems,
the tyres must be the same make and
type on all wheels, in perfect condi-
tion and, above all, of the type, make
and size recommended.
