Courtesy light timing
On certain versions, to facilitate getting
in/out of the car at night or in poorly-lit ar-
eas, two timed modes have been provided.
TIMING WHEN GETTING INTO THE CAR
The courtesy lights switch on as follows:
❒for about 10 seconds when unlocking the front doors;
❒for about 3 minutes when opening oneof the side doors;
❒for about 10 seconds when closing thedoors.
The timed period is interrupted when the
ignition is turned to MAR.
TIMING WHEN GETTING OUT OF THE CAR
After removing the key from the ignition,
the courtesy lights switch on as follows:
❒within 2 minutes from turning the en-
gine off for about 10 seconds;
❒when opening one of the side doors forabout 3 minutes;
❒when one of the doors is closed fora period of about 10 seconds.
The timed period stops automatically
when the doors are locked.
CAUTION Before getting out of the car,
make sure both switches are in the cen-
tral position; when the doors are closed,
the lights switch off to prevent the battery
from running down.
In any case, if the switch is left in the ‘per-
manently on’ position, the courtesy light
goes off automatically 15 minutes after the
engine switching off.

Door unlocking in the event of
a crash
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
of the ignition key.FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM
This system triggers after a collision and
activates the following:
❒cut-off of fuel supply with consequent switching off of the engine;
❒automatic door unlocking;
❒switching on of all interior lights.
When the system has been triggered, the
message “Fuel cut off, see handbook” is
displayed.

Following the locking of the doors using:
❒remote control;
❒door catch;
it will not be possible to unlock them by
pressing button
A-fig. 72located on the
dashboard.
IMPORTANT With central locking on,
pulling the internal handle of one of the
front doors will unlock that door. Indi-
vidual doors can be unlocked by pulling
the internal handle of one of the rear
doors.
If a power supply is not present (blown
fuse, battery disconnected, etc.) it is, how-
ever, possible to lock the doors manually.
After exceeding a speed of 20 km/h, all
doors will be centrally locked automati-
cally if the setup menu function has been
selected (see paragraph “Multifunction dis-
play” in this section).
Once the dead lock system is
engaged, it is impossible to
open the doors from inside the vehi-
cle. Before getting out of the car,
please therefore check that there is
no-one left on board. If the remote
control battery is flat, the system can
be disengaged only by inserting the
key in either of the door locks as de-
scribed previously: in this case the de-
vice remains active only for the rear
doors.
DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This safety device inhibits the operation of:
❒interior handles;
❒locking/unlocking button
A-fig. 72;
thereby preventing the opening of the
doors from inside the passenger com-
partment if there has been a break-in at-
tempt (e.g. a window has been broken).
The dead lock device therefore offers the
best possible protection against break-in
attempts. We recommend engaging it
whenever the vehicle is parked and left un-
attended. Device activation
The dead lock device is automatically ac-
tivated on every door by briefly pressing
the remote control button
Áfig. 70
twice.
Device activation is indicated by 3 flashes
of the direction indicators and a flash of
the LED on button
A-fig. 72on the dash-
board.
If one or more of the doors is not closed
correctly, the dead lock device will not ac-
tivate, thus preventing a person from get-
ting stuck inside the passenger compart-
ment by entering the car through, and
then closing, the open door.
Device deactivation
The system is disabled automatically on
every door in the following cases:
❒when opening the driver’s door using the key without remote control;
❒when unlocking doors using the remotecontrol;
❒when turning the ignition key to MAR.

RESTARTING CONDITIONS
For reasons of comfort, limiting harmful
emissions and safety purposes, the power
unit can restart automatically without any
action on behalf of the driver if certain
conditions are met, including:
❒battery not sufficiently charged;
❒extreme braking system pressure, e.g. following the brake pedal being pressed
repeatedly;
❒car moving around, for example whendriving on hilly roads;
❒stopping the engine through theStart&Stop system for more than about
three minutes.
❒automatic climate control system forestablishing a comfortable temperature
or enabling the MAX – DEF function.
With a gear engaged, the engine can be au-
tomatically restarted only by fully de-
pressing the clutch pedal. The driver is
asked to perform this operation through
a message on the instrument panel and,
for versions/markets, where provided, by
the warning light fig. 99 on the instrument
panel flashing
NB If the clutch is not pressed, when the
three minutes have elapsed since the en-
gine was stopped, the engine can be
restarted only by using the key. NB
In cases when the engine stops and
this is not desired, due for example to the
clutch pedal being released sharply with
a gear engaged, if the Start&Stop system
is activated, the engine can be restarted by
fully depressing the clutch pedal or by
putting the gear lever into neutral.
SAFETY FUNCTIONS
In engine cut-out conditions through the
Start&Stop system, if the driver unfastens
his/her seat belt and opens the driver’s
door or the passenger door, the engine
can be restarted only by using the key.
The driver is notified of this condition
both by a buzzer and through an infor-
mation message on the display and (for
versions/markets, where provided) by the
warning light fig. 99 on the instrument
panel flashing. ENERGY SAVING FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If, after the engine has been automatical-
ly restarted, the driver does not take any
action for a period of about 3 minutes, the
Start&Stop system will definitively stop the
engine to avoid fuel consumption. In these
cases, the engine can be restarted only by
using the key.
NB
In any case, it is possible to keep
the engine running by deactivating the
Start&Stop system.
OPERATING IRREGULARITIES
In the case of malfunctions the Start&Stop
system is disabled. The driver is informed
of the problem by the general failure
warning light A-fig. 102, for versions/
markets, where provided, coming on with
an information message and the system
failure symbol B on the control panel. In
this case, contact a Fiat Dealership.

Yremains
lit together with warning light U, turn the
key to STOP and then back to MAR; if
the warning lights remain on, try using the
other keys provided with the car.
IMPORTANT If the instrument panel

Ystays on permanently,
contact a Fiat Dealership immediately.
IMPORTANT Never leave the ignition key
at MAR when the engine is off.
STARTING PROCEDURE
FOR DIESEL VERSIONS
Proceed as follows:
❒ensure that the handbrake is on;
❒put the gear lever into neutral;
❒turn the ignition key to MAR: the
warning lights
mand Yon the in-
strument panel will turn on;
❒wait for the warning lights Yand mto turn off. The hotter the engine is, the
quicker this will happen;
❒press the clutch pedal all the way down without touching the accelerator;
STARTING THE ENGINE
The car is fitted with an electronic engine
lock device: if the engine fails to start, see
the paragraph on “The Fiat CODE sys-
tem” in the “Dashboard and controls”
section.
The engine may be noisier during the first
few seconds of operation, particularly af-
ter a long period of inactivity. This is a fea-
ture of hydraulic tappets, the timing sys-
tem chosen to reduce the number of
servicing interventions, and effects neither
functionality nor reliability.
We recommend that during
the initial period you do not
drive to full car performance
(e.g. excessive acceleration,
long journeys at top speed, sharp brak-
ing etc.).
When the engine is switched
off, never leave the key in
the ignition switch to prevent
draining the battery.
It is dangerous to have the
engine running indoors. The
engine consumes oxygen and pro-
duces carbon dioxide, carbon monox-
ide and other toxic gases.
WARNING
Remember that the brake
booster and power steering
are not operational until the engine
has been started, therefore you need
to apply much more force than usu-
al to the brake pedal and steering
wheel.
WARNING
STARTING PROCEDURE
FOR PETROL VERSIONS
Proceed as follows:
❒ensure that the handbrake is on;
❒put the gear lever into neutral;
❒press the clutch pedal all the way down without touching the accelerator;
❒turn the ignition key to AVVand re-
lease it the moment the engine starts.
If the engine does not start at the first at-
tempt, return the ignition key to STOP
before repeating the starting procedure.
